Truls Olsen's questions to Seadrill Ltd (SDRL) leadership • Q2 2025
Question
Truls Olsen of Fearnley Securities requested updates on several topics: the CJ70 jack-up market in Norway, the status of the Sete Brasil claim and mediation process, and any color on the day rates for the recently awarded West Vallor and Savan Louisiana contracts.
Answer
President & CEO Simon Johnson reported no material update on the Norway market or the Sete Brasil claim, noting the latter is a complex, long-term process that is not affecting current operations. EVP & CCO Samir Ali commented on day rates, stating the West Vallor's 2025 rate is comparable to what peers are getting for 2026-2027 starts, while the Savan Louisiana's intervention work is at a different, but still EBITDA-positive, price point.
