Market Focus07-13

On July 13, Transocean rose 11.54% overnight, trading at $5.80 per share. The rally was driven by a surge of major contract awards landing in rapid succession.

Most notably, Transocean reached an agreement with Equinor valued at over $1 billion for the use of three harsh environment semisubmersible rigs on the Norwegian Continental Shelf. The deal covers seven rig years with a base day rate of $399,000 per day and an effective day rate exceeding $400,000 per day. Additionally, the company had previously accumulated approximately $1.6 billion in new contract backlog since early April, including multiple extensions with Petrobras and a $158 million Eastern Mediterranean drillship contract for the Deepwater Asgard.

Looking ahead, Transocean is scheduled to report Q2 earnings on August 5, with consensus EPS estimates at $0.01. The company guided Q2 contract drilling revenue of $930 million to $970 million and full-year revenue of $3.80 billion to $3.90 billion.
