Malaysia's Icon 云顶赌场老虎机 Berhad has said it has received a letter of award from a "Petroleum Arrangement Contractor (PAC)," exercising drilling contract extension options for a jack-up drilling rig.
The rig is owned by Icon offshore's subsidiary Perisai 云顶赌场老虎机.
According to Icon 云顶赌场老虎机, the PAC had on December 29, 2020, issued a letter of award to Perisai 云顶赌场老虎机 for the rig for a drilling program that started in mid-April 2021 for a duration of 180 days for eight wells, with extension options included. The deal included three contract extensions for up to 6 wells.
Icon said Tuesday that Perisai 云顶赌场老虎机 received a letter of award from the PAC, exercising two extension options for four offshore wells. The expected start-up is in October 2021 for a period of 120 days.
Worth noting, the terms of the contract are similar to the terms announced by Icon 云顶赌场老虎机 earlier this year when it said that the company awarding the drilling deal was Petrofac, and that the deal was for the Perisai Pacific 101 drilling rig.
Given that Icon 云顶赌场老虎机, through Persai 云顶赌场老虎机, owns only one jack-up drilling rig, it is likely that the contract extensions announced Tuesday are with Petrofac. According to VesselsValue, the drilling rig is no longer named Perisai Pacific 101, but Icon Caren.
Icon 云顶赌场老虎机, best known for its offshore support vessel services, acquired the offshore drilling rig last year.
