FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
The information contained in this Fleet Status Report is as of the date of the report only and is subject to change without notice to the recipient, and we assume no duty to update any portion of the information contained herein. This Fleet Status Report contains statements that are not historical facts, which
are “forward-looking statements”. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about estimated duration of customer contracts, contract dayrate amounts, future contract commencement dates, shipyard projects, our business, financial performance and prospects. Although we
believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure you that such expectations will prove to have been correct. Various factors could cause actual results to differ materially.
The actual results of the Company could differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements because of various risks and uncertainties, including, without limitation:
the impact of variations in oil and gas production, prices, and demand for hydrocarbons, which drives activity in resource exploration and drilling activity;
changes in general economic, fiscal and business conditions in jurisdictions in which we operate and elsewhere;
the decline in demand as oil and gas fossil fuels are replaced by sustainable/clean energy;
future regulatory requirements or customer expectations to reduce carbon emissions;
the effects of supply chain disruptions such as supplier capacity constraints or shortages in parts or equipment, supplier production disruptions, supplier quality and sourcing issues or price increases;
public health issues, including epidemics and pandemics such as COVID-19 and their effect on demand for our services, global demand for oil and natural gas, the U.S. and world financial markets, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows;
changes in worldwide rig supply and demand, competition or technology, including as a result of delivery of newbuild rigs;
the demand for our rigs, including the preferences of some of our customers for newer and/or higher specification rigs;
our and our customers’ ability to obtain permits and approvals for operations;
our ability to renew or extend contracts, enter into new contracts when such contracts expire or are terminated, and negotiate the dayrates and other terms of such contracts;
expectations, trends and outlook regarding operating revenues, operating and maintenance expense, insurance coverage, insurance expense and deductibles, interest expense and other matters with regard to outlook and future earnings;
the effect of disproportionate changes in our costs compared to changes in operating revenues;
complex and changing laws, treaties and regulations, including environmental, anti-corruption and tax laws and regulations, that can adversely affect our business;
the effects and results of our strategies;
downtime and other risks associated with offshore rig operations or rig relocations, including rig or equipment failure, damage and other unplanned repairs;
the expected completion of shipyard projects including the timing of rig construction or reactivation and delivery and the return of idle rigs to operations;
future capital expenditures and deferred costs, refurbishment, reactivation, transportation, repair and upgrade costs;
the cost and timing of acquisitions and integration of additional rigs;
sufficiency and availability of funds and adequate liquidity for required capital expenditures and deferred costs, working capital, share repurchases and debt service;
our levels of indebtedness, covenant compliance, access to future capital, and liquidity sufficient to service our debt;
the market value of our rigs and of any rigs we acquire in the future, which may decrease and/or be impaired as a result of Company specific, industry specific or market factors;
the level of reserves for accounts receivable and other financial assets, as appropriate;
the proceeds and timing of asset dispositions;
litigation, investigations, claims and disputes and their effects on our financial condition and results of operations;
effects of accounting changes and adoption of accounting policies;
our ability to attract and retain skilled personnel on commercially reasonable terms, whether due to labor regulations, unionization or otherwise;
the security and reliability of our technology systems and service providers;
the adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates and currency convertibility;
our incorporation under the laws of the Cayman Islands and the limited rights to relief that may be available compared to United States (“U.S.”) laws; and
other risks indicated in the Company's filings and/or financial reports.
All of the foregoing risks and uncertainties are beyond the ability of the Company to control, and in many cases, the Company cannot predict the risks and uncertainties that could cause its actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements.
