"During the fourth quarter we experienced our best operational quarter of the

year, while continuing to reduce our cost base. Safe and efficient operations

remain at the heart of what we do as we continue to drive down costs.

In the face of the severe downturn in our industry our priorities for 2016 are

to conserve cash and address our financing needs. We have a modern competitive

fleet, a proven track record in operations and every intention to position

ourselves for a recovery in the sector.

Our 2016 liquidity is good and we aim to communicate our funding plans during

the first half of the year."
