In related news, Saipem also announced a ten-year extension of onshore drilling contracts for four land rigs in the Middle East worth around $600m. Earlier this year, Saipem agreed to sell its onshore drilling business to KCA Deutag for $550m and a 10% stake in the Aberdeen-based drilling and engineering contractor.
