Saipem已就收购Deep Value Driller超深水钻井船的主要条款和条件达成协议。随着Saipem现有租约即将到期，该交易将使Saipem得以在其船队中新增这艘第七代移动式海上钻井平台。

根据双方商定的条款，Saipem将以约2.725亿美元的现金收购该船舶，但需满足惯例成交条件并获得董事会批准。预计交易将于现有光船租赁合同于2026年7月31日到期前完成，在此之前，该船舶将继续按照现有租赁合同进行租赁。

“深水价值钻井船”于 2014 年建造，目前在印度尼西亚租船运营，是一艘由 Saipem 管理的第七代超深水移动钻井平台，可在深水环境中作业，并支持各种海上油井作业。

Saipem reached an agreement on the principal terms and conditions to acquire the Deep Value Driller ultra-deepwater drillship from Deep Value Driller. The deal paves the way for Saipem to add the seventh-generation mobile offshore drilling unit to its fleet as its current charter arrangement nears expiration.

Under the agreed terms, Saipem will purchase the vessel for roughly $272.5 million in cash, subject to customary closing conditions and board approvals. Completion is expected on or before the expiration of the existing bareboat charter on 31 July 2026, with hire continuing under the current charter until then.

The Deep Value Driller drillship, built in 2014 and currently operating in Indonesia under charter, is a seventh-generation ultra-deepwater mobile drilling unit managed by Saipem that can operate in deepwater environments and support a wide range of offshore well activities.
