  • RIG RATE FORMATIONS in the NORTH SEA Axel Roshauw Tidemann 93406 Henrik Borgen Nordby 93629
    RIG RATE FORMATIONS IN THE NORTH SEA Axel Roshauw Tidemann 93406 Henrik Borgen Nordby 93629 Characters: 236,949 | Pages: 119 | Supervisor: Tim Mondorf | May 15, 2019 MSc - Applied Economics and Finance | Master Thesis Master Thesis Copenhagen Business School May 15th 2019 ABSTRACT This paper seeks to understand the offshore drilling market and specifically the formation of the contracted day rates on drilling operations. An industry analysis and a strategic analysis form the basis for an econometric model explaining day rates. The model is used to build forecasts on the day rates, which are used in a valuation of Odfjell Drilling, in order to illustrate a potential use case of the research. Drilling Rig Supply and Demand The supply of rigs is found to be fixed in the short-term but is adjusted in the medium- to long-term with drilling companies stack, scrap, and build rigs in order to meet the expected demand of the exploration and production (E&P) companies. We also see that rigs are principally purpose-built, where geo-specific regions demand different needs, mainly for water depths and the need for harsh weatherproofing. These geo-specific needs also create sub-markets where drilling rates vary with the technical specifications and capabilities of the rigs. The drilling demand comes from the exploration and production companies. Their need for drilling rigs fluctuates with their profitability, where the price of oil dictates their wish for exploratory spending.
