Fossil Energy – Drilling

Harbour Energy has secured two CJ70 jack up rigs from Noble for operations in Norway and the UK.

The company has awarded Noble Integrator a one-well contract for operations on the Norwegian Continental Shelf. With an estimated duration of 35 days and a day rate of $205,000.

The Noble Integrator is currently under firm contract with Aker BP in Norway until September 2023 followed by an option period through December. This will be followed by the Harbour contract, which is expected to start in January 2024.

Furthermore, Harbour has awarded Noble Intrepid a ten-month contract for the provision of accommodation services at the Judy field in the UK sector of the North Sea, with a contract value of $28.5 million.

The contract contains options to add up to five months of accommodation and well intervention services.

Specifically, there are two one-month options for accommodation services at a day rate of $95,000 and one three-month option for well intervention services at $120,000.

The 492-ft rig has been warm-stacked in the UK since late 2022 following the completion of its contract with OMV in Norway.
