ADNOC Drilling Purchases Three High-Spec Jack-Up Rigs
ADNOC Drilling Company PJSC announced that it has signed an agreement to acquire an additional three brand new high-specification offshore jack-up drilling units (the “rigs”). The cost of the acquisition is part of the Company’s three-year guidance on capital expenditure and its strategic growth plans.
The acquisition underpins the company’s accelerated fleet expansion and enterprising growth strategy. Earlier sale and purchase agreements were signed on 30 May (for two rigs), 10 June (one rig) and 24 August (one rig). The latest three rigs have a combined cost of $320 million and are premium high-specification jack-up rigs.
Abdulrahman Abdullah Al Seiari, Chief Executive Officer of ADNOC Drilling, commented: “We continue to execute our bold growth strategy as a key enabler of ADNOC’s ambitious production capacity targets. The latest acquisition of these premium rigs will be central to our success, and cement our position as one of the world’s largest jack-up rig fleet owners, as we strive to significantly boost revenues and shareholder returns over the coming years.”
As the Company’s new rigs progressively enter the fleet, ADNOC Drilling expects a further boost to its financial and operating performance to the benefit of its clients, shareholders and the UAE.
