Update on Aramco and Pemex

In the jackup market, suspensions by Saudi Aramco and Pemex over the past 12 months have created continued uncertainty among investors. We see the overhang of 11 ex-Aramco premium jackups yet to be re-contracted extending through 2025. Looking ahead, we believe the worst is behind us, but we still see a risk of further reductions in Saudi Aramco’s rig count, possibly through additional suspensions of 2–5 rigs, while other rigs are set to be extended. In Mexico, uncertainty remains high, and it is unclear when the situation could normalise. With these uncertainties, we see the risk that investors will remain on the sidelines for jackup-focused names.
