Dolphin Drilling, an Oslo-listed, Aberdeen-headquartered owner and operator of a fleet of harsh environment mid-water and deepwater semi-submersible drilling rigs, has secured a letter of intent (LoA) with an undisclosed company for one of its rigs.

Vår Energi, Norway’s oil and gas player, has obtained the green light for drilling activities in the Barents Sea, which will be carried out with COSL Drilling Europe’s semi-submersible rig.
