Valaris awarded jackup extension in Saudi Arabia

Us based Valaris Limited announced in a statement that it has been awarded a 211-day extension to its bareboat charter agreement with ARO Drilling for VALARIS JU-36 (Charles Rowan), a standard-duty modern jackup in Saudi Arabia.

The Project was awarded by Saudi Aramco.

The extension is in direct continuation of the existing contract and, as a result, the VALARIS JU-36 is now expected to be under contract through the end of March 2022.

Valaris Limited provides offshore drilling services across all water depths and geographies. Operating a high-quality rig fleet of ultra-deepwater drillships, versatile semisubmersibles and modern shallow-water jackups, Valaris has experience operating in nearly every major offshore basin.
