New Contracts, Extensions and Other Updates Since Last Fleet Status Report
Contract Backlog
Valaris has been awarded the following new contracts and contract extensions, with associated contract backlog of approximately $1.0 billion, subsequent to issuing its previous fleet status report on February 18, 2025. Contract backlog excludes lump sum payments such as mobilization fees and capital reimbursements.
Contract backlog increased to approximately $4.2 billion from approximately $3.6 billion as of February 18, 2025.
Floater Contract Awards
Two-year contract offshore West Africa for drillship VALARIS DS-10. The contract is expected to commence late in the second quarter or in the third quarter 2026. The total contract value for the firm term is $352 million. The total contract value does not include the provision of additional services. An additional rate will be charged when MPD services are provided. The contract includes two unpriced options, each with a duration of one year.
Six-month priced option exercised by ExxonMobil for drillship VALARIS DS-9. The six-month option will commence in January 2026 in direct continuation of the existing firm program.
Jackup Contract Awards
Extensions of existing bareboat charter agreements ("BBC") through the end of April 2025, or completion of well in progress, for four jackups – VALARIS 116, 140, 146 and 250 – that are leased to ARO Drilling ("ARO") to undertake drilling contracts offshore Saudi Arabia.
Five-year BBC extensions for five jackups – VALARIS 116, 140, 141, 146 and 250 – that are leased to ARO to undertake drilling contracts offshore Saudi Arabia. The BBC extensions for VALARIS 116, 140, 146 and 250 are effective from May 2025, and for VALARIS 141 from August 2025, in direct continuation of their existing BBCs.
VALARIS 116 and 250 expected to be out of service at zero rate for approximately six months each from October 2025 to March 2026 to complete special periodic surveys and major equipment recertifications. These out-of-service periods are included within each rig’s five-year BBC duration.
545-day contract for jackup VALARIS 117 with an undisclosed operator offshore Trinidad. The contract is expected to commence in the third quarter 2026. The operating day rate is in line with recent market rates in the region. The contract includes a 185-day priced option.
730-day contract for VALARIS 248 in our North Sea operating region. The contract is expected to commence in November 2025.

Additional Information Regarding this Fleet Status Report
 
Day Rate and Terms. The day rates reflected in this Fleet Status Report are stated in U.S. dollars and include the operating day rates charged to customers, which may include estimated contractual adjustments for changes in operating costs and/or reimbursable cost adjustments for ongoing expenses such as crew, catering, insurance and taxes. The day rates, however, do not include certain types of non-recurring revenues such as lump sum mobilization payments, revenues earned during mobilizations, revenues associated with contract preparation and other non-recurring reimbursable items such as mobilizations and capital enhancements, and the impact of the fair market value adjustments to previously acquired drilling contracts that are recognized during the contract term. Routine and non-routine downtime may reduce the actual revenues recognized during the contract term. Additionally, we sometimes negotiate special rates and/or day rate adjustments with customers that may reduce revenues recognized.

Total Contract Value. Total contract value is the estimated total compensation expected to be received for a contract, including the operating day rate over the estimated firm term of the contract and any non-recurring lump sum payments for items such as mobilization, reactivation and capital upgrades.
 
Forward-Looking Statements. Statements contained in this Fleet Status Report that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
