ENSCO PLC (ESV) filed a Form 8K - Other Events - with the U.S Securities and Exchange Commission on May 04, 2016.

 

As an update to our Form 10-Q filed on April 28, 2016, we have concluded discussions with Petrobras regarding revised commercial terms with respect to the ENSCO 6001, ENSCO 6002, ENSCO 6003 and ENSCO 6004 rig contracts as follows:

* Previous downtime on ENSCO 6001 that could have been applied toward the limit permitting contract termination has been reduced to zero. From May 1, 2016 to June 2018, the operating day rate for the rig will be $275,000.

* ENSCO 6002 has had its contract term extended to December 2019. From May 1, 2016 to December 2019, the operating day rate for the rig will be $240,000.

* ENSCO 6003 and ENSCO 6004 had their contracts terminated effective May 1, 2016 by mutual agreement given contract amendments for ENSCO 6001 and ENSCO 6002 above.

As previously disclosed, the revised terms for these rig contracts result in an aggregate backlog reduction of approximately $140 million.

In the second quarter of 2016, we plan to mobilize ENSCO 6003 and ENSCO 6004 out of Brazil and permanently retire these rigs.
