Maersk Drilling decommissions Jackup Maersk Endurer

Maersk Drilling has decided to decommission the jackup Maersk Endurer(350' ILC) from the fleet and recycle the rig with Zhoushan Changhong International Ship Recycling in China. “Given the current market situation and the over-supply of drilling rigs in the offshore market, there is a strong need to retire older rigs. Therefore, Maersk Drilling has decided to decommission its oldest rig in the fleet, Maersk Endurer,” says Morten Pilnov, head of Global Sales in Maersk Drilling.
