Market Conditions
Long-term Opportunities
Global demand for oil & gas continues
growth driven by emerging economies
with long-term forecast for increase E&P
spending.
Success in deepwater and ultra-deepwater
exploration should provide the map to
future growth as developmental drilling
increases rig demand.
Customers prefer high-specification rigs
due to greater reliability and performance. 
With 160 floaters and 216 jackups older
than 30 years of age, there is a significant
opportunity for rig replacement.
10
Continued Growth Cycle
Continued E&P Spending Growth


Market Conditions
Short-term Headwinds
Shift in global spending to national oil
companies increases contracting time.
North American and European E&P
companies facing wave of shareholder
activism impacting capital allocations
(dividends & share repurchases versus
E&P spending).
Confidence in oil and gas demand growth
negatively impacted by emerging
economy liquidity concerns.
Large order book of rigs 123 jackups and
93 floaters –
the timing of rigs coming into
the market creates dayrate volatility.

Progress on Financial Targets

Long-term contracts provide visibility to cash flow to support our
leverage reduction objectives.
quarter 2013, with our 7 operational
assets all working, we expect to report
record Revenue, EBITDA and Income
from Operations.
We are on target to achieve our goal of
11.0+% Return on Capital Employed in
2014.
We have made substantial progress
towards achieving our Net Debt to
EBITDA goal of 5.0X.
EBITDA and EPS will be significantly
impacted by mobilizations and potential
client requested upgrade projects:
We expect to be compensated for
all of the days and upgrade costs.
