石油圈中國石化新聞網訊 據路透社11月27日奧斯陸報道，挪威海洋鉆井平臺公司Seadrill認為，從2019年到2020年，合同鉆機市場有所改善。該公司在周二公布了自7月破產后的首個季度業績。 該公司由挪威出生的億萬富翁John Fredriksen控股，其第三季度的營收為2.49億美元，運營虧損1.06億美元。 Seadrill在一份聲明中提到：“在2014-2016年油價暴跌之后，石油行業出現了復蘇，經過業務重組，我們現在完全有能力利用復蘇，我們已經開始看到從2019-2020年度開始的合同費率有所改善?！?然而，Seadrill仍然處于一個艱難的境地。在其35個鉆井平臺中，有16個在運行，19個閑置。 該公司表示，其第四季度調整后的稅息折舊及攤銷前利潤（EBITDA）將低于第三季度的4600萬美元，約為3500萬美元。 根據美國破產法第11章，公司成功地將債務及其他負債由126億美元減至74億美元。 根據美國法院批準的計劃，該公司將約24億美元的無擔保債券和超過10億美元的新鉆井平臺負債轉換為股本，并將57億美元銀行債務的首筆到期日提前到2022年。 自2015年以來，該公司一直未支付股息。 詹曉晶摘自路透社 原文如下： Norway’s Seadrill sees uptick in contracting rigs market from 2019-20 Norwegian offshore drilling rig firm Seadrill Ltd sees the contracting rigs market improving from 2019-20, as it reported its first quarterly results on Tuesday since emerging from Chapter 11 bankruptcy in July. The company, controlled by Norwegian-born billionaire John Fredriksen, posted a revenue in the third quarter of $249 million and an operating loss of $106 million. “Having restructured our business, we are now well positioned to capitalise on the recovery,” Seadrill said in a statement, referring to the recovery in the oil sector after a slump in prices in 2014-2016. “We are already starting to see rate improvements for contracts starting in 2019/2020,” it added. Still, Seadrill remains in a tough spot. Out of its 35 drilling rigs, 16 are in operation while 19 are lying idle. The adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) would be lower in the fourth quarter, around $35 million, than in the third quarter, at $46 million, the company said. During the Chapter 11 process, the company has managed to reduce its debts and other liabilities down to $7.4 billion from $12.6 billion. It converted about $2.4 billion in unsecured bonds and more than $1 billion in liabilities for newly built rigs to equity, and pushed forward first maturities of its $5.7 billion bank debt until 2022, under the plan approved by the U.S. court. The company has not paid a dividend since 2015. ?
