Chinese yards Dalian Shipbuilding Industry Corporation Offshore and Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding have received notifications from F&G to stop work on the jacking systems of eight JU2000E units, sources said.
Work has been put on hold on six jack-ups being built at Dalian under contracts awarded by Norwegian rig giant Seadrill and Houston-based drilling start-up Prospector Offshore Drilling at the start of the last rig building uptick.
