That’s a little heavy. I’ve been a PM for offshore for most my career. I’ve never seen a bill rate more than about $200/hr. Typical rule of thumb is the employee makes half of that, so that’d be $1,200 for a 12 hr day. There might be some extreme case where you work most of the day but engineers offshore aren’t making $2,000 a day. At least not in the US. Offshore Africa with hazard uplift, maybe.
