The jack-up rig market is showing signs of revival 8There are currently over 75 outstanding jack-up tenders equating to a total of 122 rig years on offer, a number that represents an increase of 106% since the beginning of the year. Most of these tenders are for projects commencing within the next 12 months. 8The combination of accelerating contracting activities, increasing number of tenders and our continued discussions with our customers provide support to our view that jack-up rig utilisation levels are expected to continue to improve at an accelerated pace as we move into 2019. The recent set-back in oil price might, if continued, lead to a slower trajectory of the recovery. However, this is not likely to significantly impact the current outstanding tenders which to a large extent have been initiated in an oil price environment that is lower than today. 8The market seems to have improved enough for some rig owners to take out contracts for new rigs. Note: The point to note is that the upswing in the global rig market may not necessarily mean that the day rates for Indian rig contracts will go up. Click on Reports and Details for more
