(1) Average dayrate is defined as contract drilling revenue for all of the specified rigs in our fleet per revenue earning day. A revenue earning day is defined as a 24-hour period during which a rig earns a dayrate after commencement of operations and excludes mobilization, demobilization and contract preparation days. |
|||||||||
(2) Utilization is calculated as the ratio of total revenue-earning days divided by the total calendar days in the period for all specified rigs in our fleet—including cold-stacked rigs, but excluding rigs under construction. As of May 4, 2015, one deepwater and four mid-water semisubmersible rigs and three jack-up rigs were cold stacked. |
|||||||||
(3) Operational efficiency is calculated as the ratio of total revenue-earning days divided by the sum of total revenue-earning days plus the number of days (or portions thereof) associated with unanticipated equipment downtime. |
|||||||||
(4) Average dayrate reported in prior periods has been revised to conform to current presentation. |
