Archer Platform Drilling agreed a 15 month extension.
It will provide existing drilling and maintenance services with the new contract active as of October 1 2019.
The deal will see Archer provide the services on the Aker BP platforms until the end of 2020.

“Our strong partnership with Aker BP, coupled with our commitment, integrity, and best in class operational performance has resulted in this contract extension.
“We look forward to continuing our working relationship with Aker BP, especially supporting the robotics project that has the potential to define the future for rig design and operation.”
