While the count in the North Sea declined by two, the number of contracted\/committed jackups increased by two during the month in both Southeast Asia and the Middle East. We expect the North Sea count to likely continue to be suppressed, but we believe the Middle East count in particular, will increase again in December. For floating rigs, despite one-rig declines in the North Sea, South America and Africa, the count globally rose by two from the start of the month, ending at 142. Increases in the number of contracted\/committed rigs took place in Southeast Asia and eastern Canada, among others.[\/vc_column_text][vc_table

ended at 382 units, down by one from the 383 contracted\/committed rigs at the end of August. Despite a six-rig increase in the Middle East, both the North Sea and Southeast Asia suffered declines during the month, offsetting the gain. However, with the rigs that went idle expected to only be idle briefly, the overall count is likely to increase in October.<\/p>\n

For floating rigs, the contracted\/committed total at the end of September was up by one from the early part of the month. The number of contracted\/committed units off Africa improved by three during the month, but single rig declines in the North Sea and Southeast Asia brought the overall increase to just one. We expect the floating rig count to continue to improve as a whole going forward, although a few regions could undergo seasonal or other decreases during the winter months.[\/vc_column_text][vc_table

However, despite the overall decline, rig counts in Southeast Asia and the Middle East increased by two rigs. ADNOC Offshore and Saudi Aramco continue to account for most of the activity in the Middle East. The North Sea also saw an increase for the month, rising by one to 32 at the end of the month. Floating rig demand worldwide increased by two during the month, from 142 to 144 contracted\/committed units. The North Sea and West Africa both saw an increase in one unit for the month. After a lull in contract signings for the past month or two, awards seem to have restarted and with several active tenders still outstanding there should be more to come in

id=”1744810002054-9″ tab_id=”1744810002055-7″][vc_column_text]The global jackup rig count in April increased by two overall to 350. One-rig increases were seen in both the Middle East and the North Sea, while other regions remained unchanged. For floating rigs there was no change for the month, with the count starting and ending at 115 contracted units. South America saw a decline of one unit at the end of the month, but otherwise there was little movement anywhere in the world. We still expect the rig count to increase in the coming months given the number of pending contract awards. As a reminder, starting in May we will revise our rig counts to include non-working rigs that have future contracts in place (committed units). These are rigs that are not “on payroll” but are also not available for hire by another operator. We believe this is a more accurate accounting of what is available and what is not. The resulting rig counts will in most cases be higher than the numbers shown for just contracted rigs.[\/vc_column_text][vc_table

id=”1744810002741-10″ tab_id=”1744810002742-0″][vc_column_text]During March, the global jackup rig count increased by five, from 344 to 349, rebounding from the February decline. Geographically, both the North Sea and Southeast Asia jackup counts increased by three, while the Middle East region went up by one during the month. Those increases were offset by a one-rig fall in North America (Mexico) and the rest of the world. However, with the generally short-term nature of many jackup contracts, these counts can easily change from week to week. For floating rigs, demand in the North Sea increased by one, while the number of contracted rigs increased by two in South America. Meanwhile, West Africa floating rig demand declined by one in Africa. The rest of the world improved by two units during the month.[\/vc_column_text][vc_table

fleets. However, we believe in the latter case that most of that decline will be made up shortly as there are a number of outstanding rig tenders nearing award. In the Middle East, whether some or all of those rigs released from contracts receive new work remains to be seen. However, in the coming months, a current Saudi Aramco jackup tender that will see the award of up to 20 contracts will add greatly to the jackup count as the year progresses.<\/p>\n

For floating rigs, there was a four-rig increase during the month. However, a one-rig pick-up in Africa was offset by a one-rig decline in the North Sea and South America. However, with a number of contracts slated to begin shortly, we expect this count to rebound in the next few months.[\/vc_column_text][vc_table

The fleet started and ended the month at 350 contracted units, with just a few ups and downs during the month. The counts in Southeast Asia and the North Sea were down, although that is expected to change in the coming months. Meanwhile, more units went to work in the Middle East. For floating rigs, it was a different story as there were five fewer rigs contracted at the end of the month. Declines occurred in Southeast Asia and other regions, while the North Sea and North America each saw slight upticks. As new contracts begin in the coming months, both fleets are expected to see a rise in the number of contracted units.[\/vc_column_text][vc_table
