Offshore rig owner Noble Corporation has secured a contract extension from LLOG Exploration for its drillship Noble Valiant.
The New York and Copenhagen-listed firm said the Louisiana-based operator had exercised an option to add six months to the 2014-built rig’s work scope in the US Gulf of Mexico.
The extension should kick off in direct continuation of the upcoming contract starting in late January 2024 and will carry the floater into early 2025.
The deal has been set at $470,000 per day excluding mobilisation rates and a potential fee for use of managed pressure drilling.
