The Permian Basin Is "The Engine" Of US Shale Production

By far the most active region in the US Permian sitting on the largest proved reserves(1)

Lower Permian Oil Production Ahead With Lower Rig Counts

  • Permian rig count down ~50 rigs YTD (of which 46 went off since Q1)
  • Subject to WTI prices, Permian rig counts are indicating a bottom in rig counts
  • Super Spec rigs continue to be the "rig of choice" in Permian

Cautiously Optimistic For 2026

Fleet and backlog update

  • \$18.7 million backlog secured beyond Sep 2025, up 76% from August
  • High grading customer base with 6 out of 9 rigs now working for "majors"
  • Recent renewals indicate similar or longer contract durations
  • Pursuing multiple opportunities for the two idle rigs, including outside Permian

Neutral near term outlook

  • E&Ps remain focused on operational and capital discipline
  • Current WTI prices suggest flat activity levels in Permian
  • US shale production likely peaking causing longer term optimism for Super Spec rigs

Continuous monthly cash distributions

  • Debt free balance sheet and low cash cost enables high shareholder distributions
  • 34 consecutive monthly distributions, totaling \$83.5m or ~NOK 20.4 per share
  • Latest distribution of \$0.03/sh implies ~13% dividend yield p.a.(1)
