Robust Demand for Specialised, Higher Specification Offshore Drilling Rigs

There is a heightened movement towards drilling operations in challenging environments and an emphasis on meeting operational and safety standards. Hence, rig owners and contractors are renewing their fleet of jackups, semi-submersibles and drillships into specialised, higher specification rigs to meet client demands.

“Producers increasingly favor high-specification units that feature advanced equipment and are capable of drilling deep, complex wells”
- Taken from the Article - Growth In Deepwater Drilling: Ensco by Elliott Gue
