Maersk gets $10.5mn contract extension off Norway

Denmark's Maersk Drilling said on July 9 that its customer Equinor had exercised an option worth $10.5mn for an additional well intervention at the Martin Linge gas field, which came on stream at the start of this month.

The contract extension worth $10.5mn means that the Maersk Intrepid jack-up rig is now contracted for a further 31 days until February 2022.
