But any 3 day with only two duty periods should have a long overnight in there unless you end at like 2 am on the 3rd day, then it’s basically a late finishing 2 day and the later it finishes the more the 3.5 rig starts adding up. As for a 15 hour 4 day. That means your TAFB would have to be less than 52.5 hours and have 3 or less duty periods which would obviously add a long overnight into the equation. I can’t make the math work but I’m genuinely curious to see how you’re getting these numbers.

LAS, 3 Day TAFB 33 hours, pay 10 hrs
11pm red-eye day 1
23 hours rest
Early morning back to base ETA 8AM
Currently would pay 13:30 (EWR turns)
15 hour 4 day would more likely be at least 16 hr because of the new rigs:
11 pm red-eye
20 hr rest
Early east coast turn (BOS-BWI-BOS)
15 hour rest
Early return to base arrive 7am
TAFB 56 hrs, pay 16 hrs
Personally would bid the 4 days, like starting late on day1.
