據美國鉆井網站2021年5月6日報道，全球著名海上鉆井承包商諾布爾公司對全球鉆井市場前景持樂觀態度。

　　這是諾布爾公司董事長兼首席執行官羅伯特· 艾夫勒日前在公司第一季度業績聲明中作上述表示的。他補充說，諾布爾公司看到了一系列利益性的投標機會以及不斷提高的鉆井日費率，特別是在浮式鉆井市場。

　　諾布爾公司在2月5日脫離破產法第11章的保護，采用了全新的會計方法，這使得該公司成為會計和財務報告的新報告實體。因此，諾布爾公司在第一季度業績中指出，2月5日之后的財務報表和附注與2月5日之前的財務報表和附注不可比較。

　　從2月6日到3月31日，諾布爾公司報告的收入為9200萬美元，其中鉆井服務合同收入為8500萬美元，調整后凈虧損為2700萬美元。截至3月31日，諾布爾公司預計收入積壓總額約為15億美元，其中約11億美元與浮式鉆井平臺有關，約4億美元與自升式鉆井平臺有關。估計5.68億美元的收入積壓可歸咎于今年的剩余時間。。

　　諾布爾公司在3月份宣布收購太平洋鉆井公司，并于4月15日完成收購。諾布爾公司4月份在其網站上發布的一份聲明中表示，太平洋鉆井公司的高規格超深水鉆井船隊進一步提升了諾布爾公司作為海上鉆井行業中最現代化、技術最先進船隊的所有者和運營商的全球地位。

　　艾夫勒在諾布爾公司第一季度業績聲明中表示：“我們很高興能夠加快完成對太平洋鉆井公司的收購。”

　　他說：“太平洋鉆井公司的高規格鉆井船隊與諾布爾公司業務的整合進展順利，我們很高興能夠再次擁有可用的鉆井船能力，能更好地滿足客戶的需求。我們有望在2021年底前實現3000萬美元的協同增效目標，這樣就可以降低我們整個合并船隊的陸上鉆機負擔。”

　　艾夫勒繼續表示：“我們仍致力于維持一個強勁的資產負債表和資本紀律，我們期待繼續執行我們的戰略，為股東創造價值。

　　Noble Corporation Optimistic on Market Outlook

　　Noble Corporation is optimistic about the market outlook.

　　That’s what Robert W. Eifler, the president and chief executive officer of Noble Corporation, said in the company’s first quarter results statement, adding that the business sees a pipeline of interesting tender opportunities developing along with improving day rates, especially in the floater market.

　　Noble emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on February 5 and adopted fresh-start accounting, which resulted in the company becoming a new reporting entity for accounting and financial reporting purposes. As a result, the company noted in its first quarter results that its financial statements and notes after February 5 are not comparable to its financial statements and notes prior to that date.

　　From February 6 to March 31, Noble Corporation reported revenues of $92 million, with a contract drilling services revenue of $85 million, and an adjusted net loss of $27 million. As of March 31, the company's estimated revenue backlog totaled approximately $1.5 billion, consisting of around $1.1 billion associated with the floating rig fleet and approximately $400 million with the jackup fleet. An estimated $568 million of the revenue backlog was attributable to the remainder of the year 2021.

　　Noble Corporation announced the acquisition of Pacific Drilling in March, which closed on April 15. In a statement posted on its website last month, Noble Corporation said Pacific Drilling’s high specification ultra-deepwater drillship fleet further enhances Noble Corporation’s global position as an owner and operator of one of the most modern and technically advanced fleets in the offshore drilling industry.

　　“We are pleased to have completed the Pacific Drilling acquisition on an expedited timeline,” Eifler said in Noble Corporation’s first quarter results statement.

　　“The integration of Pacific Drilling's high specification drillships into Noble’s operations is going well, and we are excited to have available drillship capacity again to better serve the needs of our customers. We are on track to achieve our synergy target of $30 million before the end of 2021, and in so doing, lowering our shorebased burden per rig across the consolidated fleet,” he added.

　　“We remain committed to maintaining a strong balance sheet and to capital discipline, and we look forward to continuing to execute on our strategy and build shareholder value,” Eifler went on to say.
