Maritime Industrial Services held the official steel cutting ceremony last October 25th, for the construction start of MIS' third "new build" jack up drilling rig.
Hull 107 is another Freide & Goldman Design Super M2 for client KSAM2 Petrodrill Offshore Inc. and has a contract delivery in the first quarter of 2010. Original contract sum is $148 million and has since been increased to $152 million with the execution of a Contract Variation Order for additional equipment.
Client representatives, officials from ABS Middle East and senior MIS management, attended the steel-cutting ceremony. MIS will shortly be launching their first "new build rig," Hull 104, which will be completed and commissioned at the MIS quayside for delivery scheduled in August 2008. |
