The rig is one of two currently under construction in Singapore and is expected to commence work for Total by the third quarter of 2014 on the Hild field development in the Norwegian North Sea.
“This first assignment for one of our newbuilding XL Enhanced jack-up rigs only eight months after we placed the order confirms our strong belief in an increasing demand for modern, high capacity rigs for the Norwegian market,” Maersk Drilling chief executive Claus V Hemmingsen said.
Maersk awarded Singapore yard Keppel Fels a contract earlier this year to construct two rigs based an enhanced version of the Gusto MSC CJ-70-150MD design at a combined $1.2 billion, plus an option for one more.
The Danish company said the XL Enhance design was an enhanced version of its existing ultra harsh environment jack-ups Maersk Innovator and Maersk Inspirer which are capable of operating in water depths of up to 150 metres and drilling to a depth of 9144 metres.
