That's interesting. I worked for Schlumberger for a couple of years. They are a good company in their core business of oil services (their software division is horrible, but that's another story). They particularly emphasize safety. I have no idea whether the story you linked to is true, but if the chief SLB person on site made a decision that his people were at risk, it would be consistent with the company's culture to get them out of there at their own expense.

EDIT: There are links that confirm SLB folk were off the rig, but SLB isn't saying it was any kind of emergency evacuation at this point. It was a "scheduled flight".
