Prosafe SE: Operational update for Q1 2012
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Rig utilisation in the first quarter of 2012 was 83.3 per cent. Regalia, Safe
Scandinavia, Safe Caledonia, Safe Concordia, Safe Lancia, Jasminia, Safe
Hibernia, Safe Britannia, Safe Regency and Safe Bristolia have been fully
utilised in the first quarter.
The dayrate for Safe Concordia is subject to monthly adjustments based on
currency exchange movements. In the first quarter, the average effective dayrate
was USD 144,500.
Safe Astoria remained at the yard throughout the first quarter, preparing for
operations in Australia scheduled to commence in late May. Operating expenses
for the rig amounted to USD 5.5 million in the quarter. This is considerably
higher than in normal operations due to expenses relating to the contract
preparations and a more intensive maintenance scheme while the rig is at the
yard.
Safe Esbjerg was idle in the first quarter.
