The Transocean Norge was awarded a two-well contract with A/S Norske Shell. The estimated 120 days of work is expected to commence in direct continuation of the rig’s previously awarded programs in Norway and contribute approximately $62 million in backlog, excluding additional services. The contract also includes one single-well option.
In late September, final approval was received from Equinor for the previously announced agreement for three harsh environment semisubmersible rigs in Norway: Transocean Enabler, Transocean Encourage, and Transocean Endurance. The total contract value of approximately $1.0 billion is now included in Transocean’s backlog.
