Maersk Drilling has secured a contract from Brunei Shell Petroleum (BSP) for the drillship Maersk Viking to drill one deepwater exploration well offshore Brunei Darussalam.
The contract is expected to commence in March 2021, with an estimated duration of 35 days. The firm contract value is approximately US$9 million, including additional services provided and a mobilisation fee.
The contract also includes an additional one-well option.
Maersk Viking is currently warm-stacked in Johor, Malaysia, after completing a drilling campaign in the Bay of Bengal earlier this year.
