Transocean, has opted to delay delivery, and final payments, on two dynamically positioned ultra-deepwater (UDW) drillships currently under construction at Sembcorp Marine's subsidiary Jurong Shipyard.
The proprietary Jurong Espadon 3T designed rigs are now scheduled to be delivered between Q1-Q3 2020.
Transocean currently owns or has partial ownership interests in, and operates, a fleet of 60 mobile offshore drilling units, which includes 28 UDW floaters.
