Transocean公司与一家未公开名称的运营商在澳大利亚签署了一份六口井的钻探合同，项目位于深水Skyros油田。预计该钻探作业将持续320天，于2027年第一季度开始，并将为Transocean公司带来约1.3亿美元的订单储备，这还不包括前期准备和撤离的补偿费用。

该奖项包含定价期权，如果全部行使，可以让这艘钻井船在澳大利亚工作到 2030 年初。

Transocean signed a six-well contract in Australia with an undisclosed operator for the Deepwater Skyros. The estimated 320-day campaign is expected to commence in the first quarter of 2027 and contribute approximately $130 million in backlog, excluding compensation for mobilization and demobilization.

The award includes priced options that, if fully exercised, could keep the drillship working in Australia into early 2030.
