Transocean's Feb 12, 2025 fleet status report again lists 34 rigs (26 ultra-deepwater, 8 harsh-environment). Notable entries: Invictus is out of service for contract preparation Jan-25 to Apr-25 before its bp contract at $485,000 a day; Thalassa's Mar-26 to Mar-29 Mexico contract is now shown with Woodside as customer at $480,000, which settles the earlier open question of which rig (Asgard, Proteus or Thalassa) serves Mexico; Skyros is extended with TotalEnergies in Angola at $400,000 to Jul-25.

24 Oct 2024production update▲ Good

Transocean published its regular October 24, 2024 fleet status report. It now shows 26 ultra-deepwater floaters (25 drillships and one semisubmersible) and eight harsh environment, versus 28 ultra-deepwater in July. The bp contracts for Atlas (Jun-28 to May-29 at $635,000) and Invictus (Apr-25 to Apr-28 at $485,000) appear, along with Conqueror's new Oct-25 to Sep-26 contract at $530,000, and Reliance Industries for KG1 from May-26 at $410,000. Estimated average dayrates are $442,000 for ultra-deepwater in Q4 2024 and $403,000 for harsh environment. The Mexico contract now lists Asgard, Proteus or Thalassa as candidates, no longer Invictus or Conqueror. Development Driller III and Discoverer Inspiration no longer appear in the list; the filing does not say why.
