Maersk Drilling has been awarded two contract extensions in the North Sea. Both rigs have recently been re-activated to the North Sea from warm stacking. The estimated duration of the two extensions is 105 days.
The high efficiency jack-up Maersk Resolve has been awarded a contract extension by Wintershall Noordzee B.V. for the drilling of a third well in the ongoing drilling campaign in the North Sea. The drilling of the third well will take place in the Dutch Sector and the work scope includes drilling, potential testing and completion activities. Maersk Resolve is currently drilling the first well of the contract with Wintershall Noordzee B.V. in the UK sector and will soon move to the Dutch Sector to commence the second well. The duration of the contract extension is up to approximately 90 days and brings the duration of the contract with Wintershall Noordzee B.V. from the original 160-190 days to a total of 210-280 days with further options included.
