Oslo, Norway, November 8, 2023
Commercial update:
In October 2023, the Company's 11 drilling rigs achieved an average operating
day rate of approximately USD 27,700 and rig utilization was 76.9%.
As of November 8, 2023, approximately 82% of available rig days in November are
contracted at an average operating day rate of approximately USD 26,800. The
contracted backlog beyond November was approximately USD 13.3 million with an
average daily operating rate of approximately USD 26,900.
Currently 9 of 11 rigs are contracted and working. We expect activity to pick up
early in 2024 and plan to keep the idle rigs warm-stacked for now. During the
time between contracts, the Company expects the rigs' opex to be approximately
30% lower than in a contracted mode.
