STEINHAUSEN, Switzerland, July 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Transocean Ltd. (NYSE: RIG) announced today that it will report earnings for the second quarter 2026 and issue a fleet status report on Wednesday, August 5, 2026, after the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange.

Noble maintains a positive net margin and lower leverage while focusing on high-specification offshore drilling rigs. Transocean commands higher revenue and a larger fleet but continues to navigate significant net losses and a major pending merger.

Transocean Ltd. secures a $1B+ contract with Equinor, reinforcing robust backlog growth and operational momentum despite recent share price weakness. Transocean's merger with Valaris Limited, valued at $5.8 billion, is expected to reduce leverage, unlock up to $200 million in annual synergies, and enhance scale and backlog. Industry fundamentals are improving, with rising rig utilization and daily rates driving higher revenue and cash flows for RIG.

RIG adds more than $1B to its backlog with Equinor through a seven-rig-year Norway drilling deal, boosting long-term revenue visibility from 2027.

STEINHAUSEN, Switzerland, June 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Transocean Ltd. (NYSE: RIG) (“Transocean”) today announced its entry into an agreement with Equinor, conditional to license approvals, for the use of three of its harsh environment semisubmersible rigs on the Norwegian shelf. In aggregate, this agreement is worth over $1 billion in contract backlog over seven rig years, excluding additional services. The base day rate of $399,000 per day excludes adjustment provisions that will be effective prior to commencement and result in an effective day rate exceeding $400,000 per day at commencement.

RIG boasts strong revenue visibility through its contract backlog and operational strength, though inflation, oil price volatility and elevated capex could limit near-term upside.

RIG wins new offshore contracts worth about $185 million in backlog, reinforcing demand for its premium semisubmersible drilling rigs.
