Borr Drilling says its jackup Arabia III has resumed operations offshore Saudi Arabia.
Elsewhere in the region, the company has issued resumptions notices for the jackups Groa in Qatar and the Arabia II in the UAE, with both likely to be back in operation later this month.
A fourth jackup, the Forseti, operated by a third party under a bareboat charter, is undergoing preparations to restart operations offshore Qatar.
In the US Gulf of Mexico, the start of the Odin’s contract has been delayed due to the need for additional required maintenance. The rig should start service for Cantium this month.
Offshore Southeast Asia, Borr has received a binding letter of award from an unnamed operator for a six-month campaign with the Skald rig, likely to start later in the current quarter.
