HOUSTON, June 5 -- Saudi Aramco has let a contract to GlobalSantaFe Corp. for four jack ups to drill off Saudi Arabia for 4 years.
The rigs—GSF Main Pass I, GSF Main Pass IV, GSF High Island I, and GSF High Island II—are scheduled to leave in pairs in the fourth quarter of 2006 from the Gulf of Mexico to a Middle East shipyard for 60 days of upgrades. Drilling is expected to start in March and April 2007.
