Per the offshore driller, the Shelf Drilling Tenacious jack-up rig has been hired for a 15-month contract, whose total added value came in at $66 million.
Shelf Drilling’s recent fleet status report, released in May 2024, mentioned that Cabinda Gulf Oil Company has a 15-month option, per the terms of its current contract. The CVX subsidiary exercised the option to extend the Shelf Drilling Tenacious jack-up rig’s stay in the region.

The 15-month contract extension is scheduled to commence in direct continuation of the rig’s current contract, prolonging its commitment until February 2026.
