On delivery, theharsh-environment jack-up rig will be on a fi ve-year charter to Statoil.The CJ-70 harsh-environment drilling rig is built based on the proven MSCCJ-70 design that is suitable for operations in the Norwegian North Sea.Compared to previous jack-up generations, the unit has the ability to operatein water depth of up to 150 metres with a higher variable deck load and ahigher operating effi ciency. The rig is one of the world’s largest jack-up rigs,with an overall leg length of 205 metres and a unit size that allows ancillaryactivities including logistics, well testing and early production.Mr WS Wong, Managing Director of <strong>Jurong</strong> <strong>Shipyard</strong>, said: “This project isanother signifi cant milestone for <strong>Jurong</strong> <strong>Shipyard</strong> as rigs constructed for theNorth Sea are typically more challenging as it is one of the world’s harshestoffshore environments.

This includes S$853 million incontract orders secured to-date since January2010 comprising the construction of the Ekofi skNorth Sea accommodation topside for Norway’sConocoPhillips Skandinavia AS, the P-62 pre-FPSO conversion for Petrobras Netherlands B.V.and the incremental order book derived from thesale of CJ-70 harsh-environment jack-up drillingrig to a subsidiary of Seadrill Limited.The world economy continues to improve, albeitat an uneven pace across countries, with growthlargely driven by Asia. While the recent oil spilland the subsequent US government moratoriumhave an immediate impact on deepwater drillingactivities in the Gulf of Mexico, the mid to longerterm consequence will be more safety regulationsand survey compliances for the offshore oil andgas industry. Potentially, this may result in theupgrading of existing rigs to meet the morestringent requirements and new rig orders toreplace the aging fl eet for drilling in deep waters.The Group is well-placed to leverage on theseopportunities with its proven track record andstrong turnkey rig construction capabilities.The fundamentals driving the offshore oil andgas sector remain intact with oil prices remainingabove the US$70 bbl range. Despite the volatileglobal environment, the Group continues toreceive enquiries but competition is very keen.For Brazil, the Group has tendered bids for sevenunits of drillships based on the exclusive <strong>Jurong</strong>LMG drillship design and two units of semisubmersiblerigs based on the Friede & GoldmanExD design.The ship repair market continues to improvewith the bigger docks well-booked due to strongsupport from the Group’s Alliance/FCC andregular customers as well as its niche marketsegment of LNG carriers.<strong>Jul</strong>-Aug 201011
