Maersk Drilling Wins 2-Year Angolan Extension
The head of Maersk Drilling said on Wednesday the A.P. Moller-Maersk unit has won a two-year extension for its Maersk Deliverer deepwater rig worth $387 million.
Maersk Venturer, a new rig set to be delivered this year, had also won a letter of award for a short-term contract in South East Asia, Maersk Drilling Chief Executive Claus Hemmingsen told Reuters during a capital markets day.
Such an award means the parties have agreed to a deal but are yet to hammer out details such as day rates.
