Drilling AS commented:
"NorAm is positioned as a leading and reliable operator of the US industry's
most advanced onshore drilling rigs and we were among the first to have all rigs
reactivated after the market disruption caused by Covid-19. Our focus remains on
the Permian Basin where approximately 60% of reserves in the U.S are located,
and we have industry leading operating margins after maintenance capital
expenditures.
We continue to see a tight supply/demand market and have executed five contracts
subsequent to the third quarter with average base dayrates above $31,000 per
day. After prepaying the bond loan in November, NorAm is now debt free, and we
look forward to executing on dividend strategy from December onwards."
In connection with the release, the Company invites investors and analysts to a
