EDITORIAL
Superior performance
leads to sustainable growth
By Claus V. Hemmingsen, CEO of Maersk Drilling
Partner & member of the Group Executive Board
(Maersk Drilling, Maersk Supply Service,
Maersk FPSOs, Maersk LNG and Svitzer)
Dear colleagues,
Almost halfway through the year we continue the positive development from 2010.
Our first quarter result was very promising.
We have recommitted to growth with the
order of four new units. Our operational performance is at a very satisfactory level, and
94 percent of our available rig time in 2011 is
contracted at attractive rate levels.
This was reflected in our first quarter
result, which improved substantially
compared to first quarter of 2010. That is
something we can all take pride in.
Our performance lays the
foundation for future growth
Of paramount importance to me and to
the company is that this achievement goes
hand-in-hand with a continuously improving HSE performance. We have seen two
LTIs so far in 2011 – two LTIs are still two
too many, but we have again proven that
it is possible to run our operation without
serious personal injuries. It is worth mentioning that 23 of our 28 rigs haven’t had
an LTI for more than a year. Well done !
Operationally, we have also seen great performance on most of our rigs. An example of
this is the MAERSK RESOLUTE, which managed to turn an average performance around
and make it a top quartile performance. Inside this magazine you can read more about
MAERSK RESOLUTE’s fine achievement, which
was praised by our customer, DONG Energy.
We mustered a good average 95.88 percent
uptime across the fleet in 2011 so far. That
renders us slightly behind our target of 97 percent and below what our customers expect of
us. But we’re steadily getting there and I
encourage all of you to keep up the good
work to reach and exceed 97 percent. Our
daily performance lays the foundation for
Maersk Drilling’s success and future growth.
Pursuing our growth strategy
We have a clear ambition to grow the rig
fleet. We will focus our growth on three
segments: Norway, high-end rigs and deepwater. This is where we see the biggest
potential. And these are the areas where
our customers have expressed a need for
more high-end equipment.
During the first five months of 2011, I visited
several customers, both at headquarter
and regional levels. Their message was
clear: there is a need for more high-end
equipment capable of operating consistently, effectively and safely in the ever more
complex tasks of deepwater exploration
and development – as well as in enhancing
recovery rates in existing, mature fields.
We find these markets attractive and we
firmly believe we can deliver and perform
beyond our customers’ expectations.
Hence, in April we ordered two new drillships, with an option for an additional two.
These drillships are capable of operating in
water depths of up to 12,000 feet and they
are extremely well equipped. The drillships
add to our existing deepwater fleet of
three semisubmersibles. With five deepwater units, we will be the seventh biggest
contractor in the deepwater market. Our
ambitions reach higher, however, and we will
continuously look for new opportunities.
Customer focus is everything
A prerequisite for our future growth and
success is a close relationship with our customers. Their demands point towards closer
cooperation, where we set out to create
value together. Going forward, we will focus
on the mutual benefits of such enhanced
cooperation. We have many good success
stories to build on, so we should be able to
take advantage of future opportunities.
Our sales force will work hard to engage
in a closer dialogue with our customers.
According to our 2011 priority, ‘Getting
closer to our customers’, the commercial
department is currently developing a
framework to achieve this goal. Martin
Fruergaard, our Chief Commercial Officer,
elaborates on this inside the magazine.
In closing this editorial, let me repeat: key
to our success remains to exceed our
customers’ expectations to perform to
the highest standards; effectively, consistently and safely. Every day counts and
every little bit of our overall performance
contributes and makes a difference.
We called 2010 our ‘Year of Delivery’. Let us all
build on that. Let us constructively get even
closer to our customers and make 2011 the
year where we combine outstanding performance with an enhanced customer focus.
Until next time: be safe, offshore as well as
onshore!

Maersk Drilling sets sail for deeper waters
By Christine Bülow-Olsen, Strategy & Communication, Copenhagen
On Tuesday 5 April, we signed a contract
for the construction of two ultra-deepwater drillships, the first in our fleet.
“We see an increasing amount of the global
oil and gas production coming from deepwater. Especially in the US Gulf of Mexico,
Brazil and West Africa, the need for modern
deepwater units is urgent,” says CCO
Martin Fruergaard. “Seeking to profit from
this development, we made the decision to
order the two new drillships.”
Superior design targeted
towards ultra-deepwater
Designed to meet tomorrow’s requirements for ultra-deepwater drilling, the
drillships are capable of operating in water
depths up to 12,000 feet and drill wells of
more than 40,000 feet. Another feature
that makes them especially suited for
deepwater drilling is the advanced positioning control system with a very high
level of redundancy. The system enables
the drillships to remain positioned even in
severe weather conditions.
Similar to the design philosophy on our
ultra-deepwater semisubmersibles, the
228-metre-long drillship design includes
features for high-efficiency operation.
The drillships are equipped with a double
derrick, which allows for simultaneous
activities. The extensive storage and tank
capacities provide an advantage when
operating in areas with less developed infrastructure and limited supplier presence.
Together with the higher transit speed, the
increased capacity will reduce the overall
logistic costs for the oil companies.
Focus on safety
Safety is a predominant prerequisite for
a successful operation and it was an important focus area throughout the design
process.
“We paid special attention to the safety
on board when designing the rigs,” says
CTO Frederik Smidth. “For instance, the
drillships are equipped with multi-machine
control on the drill floor, which allows for a
large degree of automation, ensuring safe
operation and consistent performance.
Another vital feature are the escape routes
in the hull that make escape much safer in
case of an emergency.”
“We definitely had our people in mind when
designing the rigs,” says Jesper B. Madsen,
Head of HR. “It is the people who are responsible for the future success of the operation.
They deserve the best conditions.”
The drillships are to be built at Samsung
Heavy Industries in Korea with delivery
in the second half of 2013. The contract
includes an option for two additional drillships to be declared primo October at the
latest. The total project cost for the two
drillships is close to USD 1.3 billion.
Features
• Dual pipe handling
• Main well centre derrick capacity
up to 2.5 million pounds
• Casing of up to 16” diameter can be
racked back in triples
• Total drilling depth of up to 40,000 feet
• Multi-machine control (MMC)
• Fully remote-operated pipe handling
Designed with people in mind
The drillships will be able to accommodate
230 people in single and two-man cabins.
With separation between the busy areas –
such as the offices, mess, galley, changing
rooms, recreation rooms, cinema – and
the sleeping areas, the design further enhances the working environment on board.

Creating value
with ConocoPhillips
By Christine Bülow-Olsen, Strategy & Communication, Copenhagen
At MÆRSK INNOVATOR, the performance is top quartile. And it is not just because
of the superior equipment and the advanced technologies. Mostly it is due to the people onboard and their close cooperation with our customer, ConocoPhillips.
The good relationship with ConocoPhillips
really shined at a recent team-building event
arranged by the MÆRSK INNOVATOR crew
and rig team. Held Thursday 28 April, the
event took place at an old manor in Ringsted,
just an hour’s drive from Copenhagen. Six
representatives from ConocoPhillips, as well
as their subcontractors, joined the event and
from the outside it looked like one big team.
The dining room at the manor is full to
overflowing with men and women chatting
about the events of the day. Everyone laughs
and teases each other about funny episodes
from the team-building sessions. One of the
participants got a little too much sun, which
no one makes him forget. Soon it turns out
that the unfortunate sunbather is a ConocoPhillips representative – no one is sacred just
because of their status as customer.
Flexibility to be spontaneous
“Having a close collaboration where both
parties understand and respect each other
is vital for every buyer/supplier relationship,”
says Rig Manager Henrik T. Christensen. “It is
what paves the way for a mutual value creation. And in the end, value creation is what
we are aiming for,” he continues.
“The feeling of being one big team ensures
a more agile operation. And in an industry
like ours this is extremely important. On
MÆRSK INNOVATOR, the crew is very good
at meeting the customer and helping out
when needed. This means that when our
customer has a spontaneous need for a
change, we always try to stretch that extra
mile to help out. And that is the foundation
for the fine achievements we see on this
rig,” Henrik T. Christensen says.
The future brings us
closer together
“At MÆRSK INNOVATOR, the teamwork between Maersk Drilling and ConocoPhillips is
6
characterised by a common understanding
and respect for each other’s business
goals. Everyone recognises the importance
of always delivering according to the plan,”
Henrik T. Christensen explains.
But going forward, Henrik T. Christensen
predicts an even closer need for integration between operator and contractor.
“The competition still gets fiercer. To
succeed in an industry like ours we must
think of new ways to engage with our
customers. I believe that a closer cooperation with the oil companies is the way
forward. And to me, the performance on
MÆRSK INNOVATOR proves just that.
I think that our good relationship with
ConocoPhillips is a big part of our success.”
“Already from the beginning of an operation we should sit down together and plan
for an operation. If we do that – if we
prepare the drilling programmes in close
cooperation – we ensure that everyone understands why a given procedure is as it is
and we ensure that everyone buys into the
operation. If we develop a plan together – if
we both take on the responsibility – we
will succeed in the future. And we will create value together,” Henrik T. Christensen
concludes.

What does it take
to be a top performing rig ?
By Henrik T. Christensen, Rig Manager, MÆRSK INNOVATOR
review. Here the rig management had
the opportunity to receive both positive
and negative feedback from the offshore
employees.
The first session held in April was a great
success. The action plan from fall 2010
was discussed. Generally, there is a feeling
that offshore is ‘moving away from the
office’, primarily due to lack of communication. A lot of initiatives have been identified
to improve in this area, including re-establishing the heliport meeting, where the rig
manager and the rig team are available for
an informational talk.
Engagement and performance are closely
linked, and driving a high level of engagement supports driving high performance.
On MÆRSK INNOVATOR, focus is on following up on the engagement survey.
To avoid lack of focus on the already established action plans, the rig management
decided to include the engagement survey
as a fixed item in the MÆRSK INNOVATOR
2011 HMS programme.
Conducting the engagement survey does
not automatically create positive changes
with our personnel. Management commitment is the key for a successful follow-up
process. Rig team, offshore management
and employees should always respond to
the survey results and consistently followup on actions.
The HMS programme is reviewed offshore
during the monthly HMS meeting and
every quarter during the onshore Rig AMU
meetings. Here we have the opportunity to
discuss our progress. The section leaders
and rig manager are still responsible for
providing feedback on the individual action
plan to the crew on a regular basis. This
ensures that engagement is constantly on
the agenda.
Taking action on the
survey results
On MÆRSK INNOVATOR, the offshore
section leaders and the rig manager have
prepared a set of action plans to ensure a
successful follow-up process. The plans are
closely linked to the implementation of POPII.
Team building for onshore
and offshore employees
During two onshore team-building events
in spring, the main topics were the implementation of POPII and EES follow-up
The crew also felt they were not given
enough information about rig performance
and how this compares with competitor
rig performance. It is difficult to gain access to competitor performance, but to
increase the level of information given
MÆRSK INNOVATOR will now share internal performance ratings, including
MÆRSK INNOVATOR’s monthly KPI score
and quarterly fleet score, as well as all
available data received from the customer.
With the engagement survey, we create and
support the company in fulfilling our vision to be
a company where high performers at all levels are
attracted, developed, managed and retained.

Getting closer to
our customers
“In 2011, our top commercial priority is to get even closer to our
customers to ensure that we achieve maximum value for the
service we deliver,” Chief Commercial Officer, Martin Fruergaard.
In the previous edition of the Newsletter, our COO Jørn Madsen explained the
rationale for one of our two 2011 priorities; getting our service right. In this issue,
our CCO Martin Fruergaard explains about the second priority; getting closer to
our customers.
What will we do to get closer
to our customers ?
To put it simply, we will focus on our customer approach.
Basically, what we will do is :
• Prioritise the customers to ensure that
we use the majority of our efforts on the
customers who recognise the value of
our service offering
• Focus on the customers who have
future growth potential and who are
present in our strategic focus areas;
Norway, and the deepwater and highend markets
• Engage closely with our customers to
learn about their needs and to find out
what creates value for them
• Further increase our knowledge about
our key customers’ organisations
• Network with our customers at all levels
of their organisations
Why is getting closer to our
customers top priority in 2011 ?
It is actually pretty simple. If we understand our customers’ needs and
continue to meet, or preferably exceed,
their expectations we will remain their
8
preferred drilling contractor. That will help
us secure both contract renewals and new
contracts. And in the end that enables us
to maximise our earnings and support our
growth ambitions.
What have we done to get
closer to our customers ?
We have already defined our key customers. At the moment we have contracts in
place with all but one of our key customers. This means that we have our rigs
contracted to customers who value our
service offering and are present in the markets that fit our strategic ambitions.
An example of a market which we have
pursued for a long time is the West African
deepwater market. Maersk Drilling has
worked hard to establish ourselves in this
market where we see great potential. And
with MÆRSK DELIVERER’s presence we
managed to do just that.
That being said, I think it is important to
state that all customers are important, but
some hold more potential than others, and
it is with them that we should focus the
majority of our efforts.
Going forward, what can we
do to ensure we always deliver
maximum earnings ?
We have to regularly review the key customer list to ensure that we are targeting
the right customers. The market changes
all the time and we need to stay at the
forefront of this development.
Getting even closer to our customers will
be key in this process. Our main obligation is to understand changing market
conditions. And based on this knowledge,
make the right commercial decision in
respect to pursuing long or short-term
employment, decide which customers
and contracts to pursue and make solid
recommendations in respect to ordering
new assets.
Finally, we need to constantly improve
the way in which we transform our innovative rig design and capabilities into
better earnings. Based on our operational
performance in terms of safety, efficiency and consistency, we have to
develop a structured way to gain a fair
share of the additional value we provide
our customers.

DONG Energy praises
MAERSK RESOLUTE for
‘a world class operation’
By Dorte Schnack, QM/HSE Advisor, MAERSK RESOLUTE rig team
On 7 April, MAERSK RESOLUTE received a farewell letter from DONG Energy
praising the crew and all onshore personnel involved in the operation of the rig for
a very successful and safe performance.
The reason for the letter was the remarkable effort carried out by the entire
MAERSK RESOLUTE team to turn around
an average performance. Now, at the end
of the contract, MAERSK RESOLUTE is a
top performing rig delivering wells on or
below budget, DONG Energy writes.
A fully dedicated Rig Team
The main reason for the good performance
was the productive teamwork with
DONG Energy. Since March 2010 the
MAERSK RESOLUTE rig team has been
located in DONG Energy’s head office in
Nærum. “The daily contact with DONG
Energy enabled excellent communication
and the opportunity to take the idea of a
‘one rig dedicated’ rig team to its full potential,” says Rig Manager Henrik Lisbjerg.
need to discuss why safety is an important
part of everything we do, and in this way, the
horrible accident was incorporated into our
culture,” Henrik Lisbjerg says.
Now MAERSK RESOLUTE has achieved
over 500 days without any LTIs and on 7
April the rig received its first HSE Award
for 90 days without any dropped objects,
spills or TRCs.
Besides having a motivational impact, improving the safety performance has also freed up
a lot of time to be proactive. When less time is
spent following up on incidents and accidents,
more time can be spent on preventing new
ones. In fact, 477 potential dropped objects
have been identified and removed in the past
12 months on MAERSK RESOLUTE.
New challenges
MAERSK RESOLUTE has now been sublet
to Total Netherlands E&P – and with the
rig operating in the Netherlands – the rig
team has moved its base back to Lyngby.
Meanwhile, the Rig Manager and Assistant
Rig Manager will spend most weekdays in
The Hague in the Netherlands supporting
Total directly.
“This setup will present new challenges
with the distance to the Netherlands and
the rig team sitting in two locations. We
are, however, dedicated to building the
same teamwork-relationship with Total,
and look forward to the opportunity to provide them with the same experience as the
one we gave DONG Energy – a world class
operation,” Henrik Lisbjerg ends.
The rig team’s frequent visits to the rig also
played an important role in improving the
teamwork. These visits strengthened the
relations and mutual understanding of
each person’s role within the team.
Safety as a natural part
of operation
One necessity for improving performance is to
have a crew dedicated to being the best. Since
the horrible fatality on MAERSK RESOLUTE
in November 2009, every person involved
in the operation of the rig has been highly
aware of the potential consequences when
safety barriers are not in place. “We never

Status on downtime reduction system :
implemented !
By Kristian Coff-Petersen, Performance and Processes, Copenhagen
From mid-March to end-May, the Performance and Processes team tested the new
downtime reduction system. The system was tested on 16 rigs for approximately two months.
The system quickly became a success. After
9 weeks of testing more than 150 down time
reduction reports were made and several of
the reports led to knowledge sharing across
asset teams and rigs. The thorough testing
ensured that we were comfortable going live
with the system on 1 June.
Why do we need a Downtime Reduction System ?
As a company, we have not had a structured approach to proactively minimising
operational down time. This resulted in
delays on our customers’ AFE and timedepth performance, and it impacted us
negatively financially.
It is our strategy to deliver superior operational performance and we want our customers to recognise us for this. In order to differentiate ourselves from the competition,
we continuously look for opportunities that
can improve our operational performance.
Every down time occurrence is an
opportunity to learn and become better.
We must use these lessons to reduce
the frequency of down time occurrences
and limit their impact in the future.
When we have down time, we are good at
implementing corrective actions quickly
to get us back in operation again. The
What are the main uses
of the downtime reduction system ?
Crew and Supervisors :
• Active role in analysis of root causes
and finding the right preventive actions
• Supervise and perform implementation of preventive actions
OIMs :
• Delegate analysis to a team or individuals as described by the documents
and process in SIRIUS
• Delegate actions to supervisors and
monitor the implementation of preventive actions
• Ensure knowledge sharing across
crew rotations
10
Rig Managers :
• Track progress on how the crew handles downtime on an overall level
• Information on practical initiatives
to minimise downtime and impact of
downtime that can be used towards
the customer
• Active role to support crew in analysing and preventing complex downtime situations
Asset teams :
• Share best practises on downtime
root causes and solutions (preventive
actions) across rigs and asset teams
effectively and swiftly
• Information on key challenge areas
across a portfolio of sister rigs
new system aims at taking us to the next
level in handling downtime: fixing the root
causes of down time and preventing down
time in the future.
From a financial perspective the Downtime
Reduction System aims at continuously
reducing the loss of revenue caused by
downtime, which in 2010 amounted to
more than USD 45 million.
What is the Downtime Reduction
System ?
The system has two components:
• A process and documentation that will
enable employees to conduct highquality root cause analysis and identify
proper preventive actions.
• Process integration in SAP and Outlook/
Groupwise emails to facilitate easy progress tracking, follow-up and knowledge
sharing.
Going forward
Changing how we work is always challenging and a more proactive approach
to downtime reduction requires that we
do just that. As Head of Performance and
Processes Lars Ostergaard puts it :
“If we want better results we must do something different. The efforts and willingness to
try out our new downtime reduction system
by offshore crews have been admirable and
signals that Maersk Drilling employees are
dedicated to operational performance. By
continuing with this dedication to use the
system to reduce downtime, the quality of
the analysis will continue to improve and we
will be a lot more effective at fighting downtime across Maersk Drilling in the future.”

MAERSK GUARDIAN pays Hirtshals a visit
By Sietze Akkerman, Technical Organisation, Copenhagen
The small town of Hirtshals in North Jutland currently hosts MAERSK GUARDIAN
while it is in for a major upgrade. The primary objective of the project is to extend the
operational life of the rig for yet another ten years in the North Sea.
The work scope for the upgrade is diverse.
It aims at extending the rig’s operational
life, while also providing better facilities for
the crew.
Major facility changes include the accommodation area, which will be upgraded
to provide better living standards for the
crew. Most of the furniture and fittings in
the crew’s living quarters will be replaced.
The rig will also be home to a new pilot programme called ‘turnbeds’. A crew member
can move from day to night shift, or vice
versa, by rotating the suspended bed over
its axis length.
Operationally, the driller’s cabin will be replaced to provide more space. This ensures
a better user-interface with the drill floor.
The rig also receives some major hardware
upgrades, including a new blow out prevenMAERSK GUARDIAN arrives at Hirtshals Harbour
ter (BOP) and associated hoisting equipment. In addition, the rig’s moonpool will be
structurally reinforced to support the new
BOP. Other big jobs include the installation
of a new texas deck and aft crane, as well as
a significant number of upgrades and overhauls to the electrical and control systems.
A new experience for Hirtshals
Hirtshals has a long history as a fishing
community and, as a major ferry port to Norway, tourism also plays a role in the town.
However, the berthing of a drilling rig is an
altogether new experience for the 7000
local inhabitants. Public interest has been
high, with locals lining up along the quayside
to watch MAERSK GUARDIAN’s arrival.
MAERSK GUARDIAN has already brought
its first challenge to the project team, arriving a few weeks ahead of schedule. But
thanks to teamwork, and the flexibility of
the rig crew and subcontractors, everything is going according to plan.
Project Manager Erik Jensen said: “Communication with the local authorities and
emergency services has been extensive and
from the outset we’ve kept the local community well-informed of the rig’s arrival.”
The yard stay for MAERSK GUARDIAN
began on 29 April and is expected to take
approximately 80 days.
MAERSK
GUARDIAN
praised for good
performance
Prior to its yard stay, MAERSK
GUARDIAN operated for Talisman in
the Norwegian part of the North Sea.
And at the end of the contract Talisman expressed great satisfaction
with the rig and her crew.
In a letter Talisman’s drilling team
wrote : “The results, both with
respect to HSE and operational efficiency, have been outstanding. We
would like to thank every single one
in the MAERSK GUARDIAN crew for
their effort, which has been a vital
part of achieving such good results.
Thank you all, Talisman

Last year Claus V. Hemmingsen sent out a letter
to all OIMs in connection with the Macondo
accident, where he emphasised everyone’s
obligation to stop a job if it is potentially
unsafe. What have you done on this matter ?
I continuously stress to all managers, supervisors and the crew
that safety and good oil field practice is not something that
can be switched on and off to suit the situation at hand. Safety
and compliance with procedures is the cornerstone of how we
do our business.
How do you see safety on MAERSK DISCOVERER ?
The willingness to work safely is high. Everyone does their
utmost to ensure a safe environment on the rig. However,
with a relatively new crew that hasn’t worked together for
little more than a year there is always room for improvement.
What do you do on MAERSK DISCOVERER to
promote a safer environment ?
I encourage an open dialogue about safety and improvements.
The right and moral obligation to stop an unsafe job is a mantra
on the MAERSK DISCOVERER.

How do you think we can improve safety in
Maersk Drilling ?
We have to focus on accountability and ownership at all levels
of the organisation. If we all truly feel we own safety and have
a personal responsibility for living safely, we have come a long
way towards an incident-free environment.
This, however, cannot stand alone; it needs to be backed up by
continuous enhancement of our management systems.

Five quick questions for
Jesper
B. Madsen
“Building on the dedication of our employees, I am very
excited about the prospects for the future of our company.”
Jesper B. Madsen, Head of HR
01
04
You have recently developed an HR strategy
for the period 2011 – 2013. Why do we need
such a strategy ?
What are our specific plans to solve this
challenge ?
Maersk Drilling is in a very attractive situation. We have modern and competitive rigs, good contract coverage and strong
financial and operational performance. Combined, these factors give us license to grow our fleet.
To grow, and thereby benefit from this situation, we face a couple of HR challenges. Notably attracting and retaining enough
employees with the right competencies. Our HR strategy is
focused on finding solutions to that challenge.
02
So what are the core solutions of the HR strategy ?
Put simply the core solutions focus on :
a)Attracting talented employees so we can grow our business.
b)Building the competencies of our employees so we can
safely and effectively operate our superior equipment.
c)Developing our leaders so they are best in the industry.
03
What is our biggest HR challenge ?
As mentioned before, we need competent employees.
Currently the overall work population in the industry is aging,
meanwhile the inflow of young people is decreasing. So the
biggest challenge is to ensure we remain attractive to the
best employees in the industry.
Firstly, we must invest massively in developing the many good
employees we already have in Maersk Drilling. Secondly, we will
identify which institutions, schools, companies and specific
locations we can build our future recruitment efforts around.
Thirdly, we will try to ensure that new employees are introduced to Maersk Drilling in the best way possible. So in May
this year, we’re rolling out an improved introduction process for
new employees in Maersk Drilling.
05
What do we do to ensure that we have the best
leaders ?
During 2011 – 2012, we will have all our leaders both on and
offshore participate in our core leadership programmes:
‘Leading Others’ and ‘Leading Leaders’. Furthermore we will
provide extensive learning programmes for our rig and asset
managers at the business school of IMD in Lausanne.
I don’t know of any other drilling company that invests as
much in leadership as we do. We do this because it makes
business sense; good leaders lead to an engaged workforce,
which again leads to improved business performance.
All in all, we do have some big HR challenges, but I am certain
we will solve them.

MARKET INSIDE
Deepwater
– a compelling growth story
in the offshore universe
By Michael Harboe-Jørgensen,
Head of Strategy & Communication, Copenhagen
In April this year, Maersk Drilling signed a contract for two ultra-deepwater
drillships. The decision to expand our business within the deepwater segment
is based on a continued positive outlook on the fundamentals of the deepwater
floater market. In this version of the Market Inside we present our view of the
deepwater market.
Within the global floater fleet, the ultradeepwater floater segment (7500ft+) is by
far the fastest growing. It has expanded
from less than 10 units in 2000, to 93 units
today, with an additional 68 units under
construction.
Historically, the global ultra-deepwater
market has been characterised by a very
high utilisation – above 95 percent and
fluctuating rates. During the 2005 – 2008
offshore rig boom, the ultra-deepwater
rates increased from around USD 200,000
per day, peaking at USD 650,000 per day.
During the 2009 – 2010 downturn, which
was driven by the oil price collapse in 2008,
the ultra-deepwater market remained
close to full utilisation and day rates
remained strong – bottoming out around
USD 400,000 per day.
The short to medium term demand for
deepwater rigs is expected to remain
robust. The key deepwater development
areas such as Brazil, US Gulf of Mexico
and West Africa, make good economics
at the current forward oil price curve
(current price above USD 100 per barrel),
and with break-even prices of USD 70 per
16
barrel and below, we expect to see a significant increase in the final investment
decisions and project sanctions over the
next years.
Deepwater share of world production
(>400m)
10%
9%
On the longer term, the attractive structural fundamentals of the oil market will
drive demand for deepwater drilling rigs.
Global demand for oil is expected to grow
by ~1 percent p.a., and accelerating decline
in production capacity from mature basins
implies that more than one-third of the current production capacity must be replaced
through 2035.
In order to explore and develop new production capacity, oil companies are shifting
to new frontiers as the ‘easy’ fields are rapidly maturing. These new frontiers include
deepwater and other non-conventional resources. Deepwater will be key to increasing the global oil supply in the future and
it represents the main area for production
growth offshore.
Since 2000, the deepwater share of total
oil production has increased from around
2 percent to around 6 – 7 percent in 2010.
The upward trend is expected to continue

with the share of deepwater production
increasing to 8 – 9 percent in 2015.
Deepwater is still a relatively new area,
which has mostly focused on exploration. Historic drilling patterns in more
mature regions show that exploration
drilling dominates in the early stage and
remains more or less constant, while
development drilling gradually starts
dominating. Extrapolating this pattern to
deepwater drilling suggests a significant
increase in deepwater development drilling activity.

C & R Asset and Rig Managers
met in Rotterdam
By Ben Pomford, Operations, Copenhagen
On Wednesday 13 April, the quarterly Asset
and Rig Managers meeting was held in Rotterdam for all the R and C rigs. The meeting
was part of the follow up to the recent
course, the ‘Maersk Drilling way of winning’,
held at the International Institute for Management Development (IMD) in Lausanne.
Asset Manager Jørgen Schaffer opened the
meeting with a presentation of the 2010
performance figures and KPIs for the R and
C rigs. Jørgen Schaffer also touched upon
main focus areas. Reduction in NPT flat
spots, better planning and maintenance
were all part of the discussion.
Afterwards, Jørgen Schaffer gave a
presentation on customer mapping,
which is part of the IMD project charter.
MAERSK RESOLUTE’s sublet to Total in
Holland is a good example of our increased
customer focus. Prior to start of that
operation a meeting was held to discuss
the needs and expectations of both parties. This reduced the risk for potential
misunderstandings and paved the way for
a successful contract execution.
The Maersk Drilling way
of winning
The remainder of the morning featured several more presentations. COO Jørn Madsen
presented the ‘Maersk Drilling way of winning’. He was followed by the performance
and processes team that further elaborated on the Maersk Drilling service delivery
model, which is part of the ‘Maersk Drilling
way of winning’. The last presentation of the
morning was Blohm + Voss Repairs, who
presented their new equipment.
After lunch, the group was split into two.
NOV talked about the C rigs, and Aker
Solutions discussed the R rigs. They shared
information on service and support as well
as the upcoming five year class surveys for
both sets of rigs.
Visiting MAERSK REACHER
After a quick change of clothes and a
short bus ride to the Verolme shipyard,
the group was greeted by the
MAERSK REACHER project team
leader, Per Strange Rasmussen.
Per Strange Rasmussen gave a brief
status update on MAERSK REACHER’s
upgrade. This was followed by a tour of
the rig led by Rig Manager Ejnar Sørensen,
who showed the group the new spudcans
and lift installation, as well as all the other
parts of the ongoing upgrade.
In June, after finalising the vast number
of upgrades, the rig will be ready to commence work in Norway.

MÆRSK DELIVERER
changed active heave compensator
By Brian Meechan, OIM, MÆRSK DELIVERER
In February, MÆRSK DELIVERER finalised her first contract with Dana Petroleum
in Mauritania. This took her to her next destination: Ghana. Moving the rig from one
country to another presented some challenges to the rig team and the crew.
One of these challenges was the change
out of one of the crown-mounted active
heave compensator cylinders, part of
the warranty work scope. Measuring nine
metres and weighing three metric tonnes,
this is a critical piece of equipment and
a necessity for the new contract with
HESS Ghana on their exploration well,
Paradise–1.
A great deal of pre-planning was carried
out prior to the change out. This ensured
that the work could be completed safely,
with minimum disruption to the many
other planned rig operations.
18
With the initial strip down and removal of
the old cylinder, followed by installation of
the new replacement cylinder, there was a
potential risk of dropped objects. Therefore
the rig team placed particular emphasis on
mitigating the risk of DROPs.
Fortune favoured us and the rig team
had the added advantages of relatively
fine weather throughout the operation,
coupled with the inherent stability of the
deepwater semisubmersible class. These
factors greatly reduced the risks associated with carrying out this type of work
during an open ocean transit.
All safety precautions were in place
throughout the operation, with prepared
work permits and procedures for this
challenging task, which was carried out at
great heights. The Maersk Drilling personnel were primarily tasked with facilitating
the installation team, comprised of technical staff from the manufacturer NOV and
the rope access personnel from RBG.
With the highest level of cooperation from
all personnel, the rig team completed the
task without any incidents. It was a very
professional job with good teamwork
displayed by all groups.

Great expectations in West Africa
By Rikke Augustinus Eriksen, QM/HSE, Copenhagen
Oil companies expect an increasingly high
level of local content from their customers. In some areas, up to 50 percent of an
operation is required to come from the
local community in order to gain a licenseto-operate.
When Maersk Drilling first arrived in Ghana,
we were met with strict local content
requirements from local authorities and
labour unions.
Ghanaian personnel
In February 2011, MÆRSK DELIVERER,
one of the most advanced high-end
deepwater semisubmersibles in the world
commenced operations in Ghana. No local
offshore workers had experience with this
kind of equipment. Nevertheless, the local
authorities and labour unions required that
any job that could be done by local staff
should be done by Ghanaians.
developing the local communities in which
we work,” Jens Berge says.
“Local content is as much an opportunity as
it is a challenge to us. The opportunity lies
in our socially responsible behaviour and
the challenge lies in the higher risk of safety
incidents and low performance. These challenges are however manageable as long as
we are risk conscious,” he continues.
Maersk Drilling expands
In Maersk Drilling, we see an escalating
necessity to strengthen our efforts in terms
of engagement and dialogue with local
external stakeholders. Close stakeholder
relationships and partnerships play an essential role in making the most out of both
society and business-related potentials and
outcomes. With the recent investments in
two ultra-deepwater drillships, West Africa
is among other places, definitely an area to
pursue. To operate in West Africa we are unquestionably expected to perform on local
content. So this is an area that will get much
more attention going forward.
Local content
in Maersk Drilling
Maersk Drilling’s work with local content
primarily consists of operational and
contractual local investments, relating
to local staffing, sourcing, capacity building, services, and secondarily of community engagement and voluntary local
investments, such as donations. Building
and maintaining industry relations is yet
another essential concern, and one of the
most imperative issues is local content.
So prior to commencing work there, Rig
Manager Jens Berge travelled to Ghana to
meet with the Ghana National Petroleum
Corporation (GNPC) and unions to come to a
mutual agreement.
Maersk Drilling and GNPC agreed that
Maersk Drilling would take onboard a full
local catering crew and hire Ghanaians
for 50 percent of the positions, from derrick man, to motorman, roustabout and
the like. Several local Ghanaians passed
the competency requirements for these
positions, and Maersk Drilling were able to
uphold the desired high level of safety and
performance from day one.
Business and society :
two sides of the same coin
“We obviously have a great interest in
following local terms and requirements
and we see a great value in being part of
“We consider local content a long-term strategic investment. Local content is good for society
as well as for business. It has a great potential for strengthening our corporate reputation and
competitive advantage.” Chief Commercial Officer Martin Fruergaard

A godsend for the daycare centre
The manager at Snoezelhuset, Jytte Schmidt,
says she already has a wish list for how to use
the money. “We would like to have new floor
plates that change colour when you step on
them and a new stereo would definitely also
come in handy. But all the new technology is
very expensive,” Jytte Schmidt says.
Filled with innovative features
Even though Maersk Drilling has donated
money to Snoezelhuset for 20 years, this

OIMs and Senior Management discussed performance
22
Efficiency, safety and strategy were
some of the topics touched upon at the
annual Offshore Leadership Forum held in
Copenhagen in early spring 2011. In 2011,
we resumed an old tradition of gathering
all Maersk Drilling OIMs for joint sessions in
Copenhagen. This year, 32 OIMs found the
time in their busy schedules to network
and to join discussions on business and
operational topics.
operationally and to continuously deliver
top performance. A mass of ideas came
up. “Competencies, training, equipment
and management systems all hold the
key to top performance,” the OIMs agreed.
“They are our core competencies. And it is
the combination of our core competencies that brings the most value to our
customers, shareholders and ourselves,”
they stated.
How do we ensure
a successful operation?
The conference was hosted by CEO Claus
V. Hemmingsen, COO Jørn Madsen and
Head of HR Jesper B. Madsen. It offered
a mixture of workshops and discussions.
One of the main topics was how to excel
Safety was top of the agenda
Safety was another main topic at the
conference. All OIMs agreed that safety is a
prerequisite for our future.
Efficient communication is another
vital enabler for success. Open two-way
communication ensures a clear flow
of information between offshore and
onshore. Especially the communication
among the management and the daily
interaction between the OIMs and the
crews, the OIMs agreed.
A successful forum
All in all, the OIM forum offered a lot of
valuable input. The forum produced more
than 70 action points, which have been
assigned to the participants for follow
up and execution during 2011.
The Offshore Leadership Forum for OIMs
is planned to be held annually. The next
Forum is scheduled for Q1 2012.
