Kaivoja Sudaniin

Seadrill secures new contract for jack-up West Prospero
"Seadrill has been awarded a two-well contract by Red Sea Petroleum Operating Company Limited (RSPOC) for the jack-up rig West Prospero. The assignment is for operation offshore Sudan with mobilization scheduled for December this year. The drilling assignment is expected to take some six months and the estimated contract value is approximately US$49.9 million inclusive of mobilization and demobilization. West Prospero, which is currently idle in Indonesia, will be upgraded with high pressure, high temperature (HTHP) capabilities prior to moving to Sudan on a heavy lift vessel."


Kuljetuksien ja modifikaatioiden jälkeenkin dr on kova, oman arvion mukaan yli $200 000, mutta poraus paikka on Sudan. Operaattori RSPOC on Kiinan CNPC:n ja Malesian Petronasin yhteisyritys, joten maksujen suhteen ei pitäisi olla ongelmia.

Prospero on pari vuotta vanha ei-vaativan ympäristön-(benign environment) ultra premium ja parin vastaavan aluksen tuoreimman sopimuksen(Scorpion Offshore ja Atwood) perusteella BE ultra premiumien dr:t ovat yleisesti $120-130 000 tienoilla. Prosperon sopimuksen "extra" johtuu varmaan porauspaikasta.
