Dolphin Drilling will be working in 450 m of water on the Norwegian Continental Shelf. Shell’s work will start in February 2020 following completion of two other projects for which the rig is already contracted.

Dolphin Drilling recently announced the Borgland Dolphin rig had secured contracts with i3 Energy for drilling in Liberator oil field followed by the Serenity prospect in the UK’s central North Sea.
