The Aberdeen-headquartered Odfjell Drilling Ltd. has announced that Norwegian oil major Equinor Energy AS has exercised priced options for two additional wells for the semi-submersible rig Deepsea Atlantic, in direct continuation of the rig’s current contract.
The option exercise extends Deepsea Atlantic’s firm contract to late Q4 2027 at the pricing agreed in the original contract, which Shipping Telegraph reported on February 3, 2025.
Equinor retains priced options for a further two wells, as Odfjell Drilling informs.
The Deepsea Atlantic is a semi-submersible rig of GVA7500 design, 2009-built at DSME, South Korea.
