The five firm well based contracts will have staggered commencements throughout 2020 with initial terms concluding in 2023 and 2024 respectively. The total contract value is expected to be US$656 million (including mobilisation fees). Each contract has five single well options which could add up to an estimated 13.7 cumulative years of term and an additional contract value of US$700 million.
GulfDrill will initially bareboat charter the West Telesto and West Castor from Seadrill and has secured bareboat charters for three additional units from a third-party shipyard.
Anton Dibowitz, CEO, commented: "We are excited to establish a significant presence in an important Jackup market and to partner with GDI. GulfDrill will give us the opportunity to improve our access to a market that is expected to show significant growth over the next years and strengthen our relationship with Qatar Petroleum."
