Oslo, Norway, November 14, 2023

NorAm Drilling AS (the "Company" or "NorAm"), today reported unaudited results
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023:

HIGHLIGHTS

o Reported Revenues of MUSD 26.6, down 24% from the previous quarter
o Adjusted EBITDA of MUSD 6.9, down 52% from the previous quarter
o Fleet utilization was 77.3% compared to 98.9% in the previous quarter
o Average base dayrate of $30,300, down 4% from the previous quarter
o Current revenue backlog of MUSD 17.4 as of November 14, 2023

Marty L. Jimmerson, Chief Executive Officer of NorAm Drilling AS commented:
"As a result of the third quarter declines in Permian rig counts, we achieved
utilization of 77% in the quarter and had 3 rigs hot stacked as of September 30,
2023. The market was impacted by reduced drilling after consolidation activity
among private operators and disciplined production plans demonstrated by most of
the E&Ps. Subsequently, we have reactivated one rig and currently have two rigs
hot stacked as of today. With our industry-low cost base and zero debt, the
current market demonstrates the strength of our unique full-payout dividend
model. Despite market headwinds, we paid MUSD 9.8 or NOK 2.37 per share in
monthly dividends in the quarter, and have declared two additional dividends
after quarter end. Our rigs are among the top performers measured in feet
drilled per rig day in the U.S. market, and NorAm should be well positioned in a
market recovery."
