Danish Offshore Driller Maersk Drilling Receives New Contract from Equinor for the Maersk Intrepid Rig
The driller said on Friday that Equinor exercised two one-month options extending the current contract for the Maersk Intrepid rig by two months until June 2019. Additionally, Maersk Drilling and Equinor signed a new five-month contract for the Maersk Intrepid, which will begin in direct continuation of the current extended contract. The new contract adds four additional options of two months each.
In a separate statement on Friday, Equinor stated that the value of the fixed part of the new contract is estimated at US $ 40 million.

Billions of barrels on the equatorial margin could lead Amapá to double its oil production in Brazil — the state aims to enter the route of companies in the Campos Basin, attract investments, and boost jobs and businesses in the oil and gas sector.
The driller also said that the Maersk Intrepid will be used for drilling and accommodation activities in the Martin Linge field, with possible re-deployment to other fields operated by Equinor at a later stage.
The Maersk Intrepid initially had an operational support contract for the Martin Linge license until April 2019. + See also: Aker Solutions Charters Maersk Vessel.
CCIO of Maersk Drilling, Morten Kelstrup, said: “We are proud to see the Maersk Intrepid have the opportunity to continue at Martin Linge and contribute to the expected start of production in the field in 2020. Equinor is a highly valued customer of Maersk Drilling, and it is great to be able to continue our long-standing cooperation with this renewed commitment.”
The Maersk Intrepid is an ultra-light XL Enhanced jack-up that was the largest jack-up in the world when it was launched in 2014. It has been deployed in Norwegian waters since then, with a track record that, in addition to Martin Linge, includes work in the Sleipner and Hanz fields.
