Maersk Drilling has received a notification from Tullow Ghana Ltd. of early termination for convenience of the drilling contract for the drillship Maersk Venturer.
Since February 2018, Maersk Venturer has worked for Tullow offshore Ghana with an expected end of contract in February 2022. The rig is now expected to end the contract in June 2020. As a consequence of the termination, Maersk Drilling’s revenue contract backlog is reduced by US$175m covering the period from the end of the contract to February 2022.
Subject to commercial prospects, Maersk Drilling will take measures to reduce Maersk Venturer’s operating costs following the end of the contract.
