Dolphin钻井公司获得墨西哥海上钻井合同

据离岸工程网站9月2日消息 海上钻井承包商Dolphin钻井公司在墨西哥与墨西哥国家石油公司签订了钻井平台合同。

Dolphin钻井公司周二表示，合同是Blackford Dolphin半潜式钻井平台。该合同预计将持续15个月，价值8300万美元，这意味着日费率略高于18万美元。

1974年在挪威建造的Blackford Dolphin目前正在为10月开始运营前从北海到墨西哥的作业做准备。

Dolphin钻井公司首席执行官比尔纳尔?艾弗森表示：“我们快速调动资产的能力以及出色的运营和安全表现是我们赢得合同的关键。Blackford Dolphin是市场上最高效的系泊半潜式平台之一，由于其低油耗和高钻井性能，可减少与钻井相关的二氧化碳排放。”

“我们与墨西哥国家石油公司的联盟证明了我们如何为世界各地的运营商增加价值，我期待着我们在未来几年继续我们的全球增长，并将墨西哥视为我们系泊半潜式平台的重要战略市场。”

Dolphin Drilling Nets Offshore Drilling Work in Mexico

Offshore drilling contractor Dolphin Drilling has won a drilling rig contract in Mexico with the country's national oil company Pemex.

Dolphin Drilling said Tuesday the contract was for the Blackford Dolphin semi-submersible drilling rig. The value of the contract, expected to last 15 months, is $83 million, meaning the dayrate is slightly above $180,000.

The Blackford Dolphin, built in Norway in 1974 is currently being prepared for the journey from the North Sea to Mexico ahead of the start of operations in October.

Bj?rnar Iversen, CEO of Dolphin Drilling, said: “Our ability to mobilize the asset quickly and our excellent operational and safety performance were key to us winning the contract. Blackford Dolphin is one of the most efficient moored semisubmersibles on the market, providing a reduction of the CO2 emissions associated with drilling due to its low fuel consumption and high drilling performance.

“Our alliance with PEMEX demonstrates how we can add value to operators located anywhere in the world, and I am looking forward to us continuing our global growth in the years to come, and see Mexico as a strategically important market for our moored semi-submersibles.”
