Balance sheet

As of 31 December 2013 total assets amounted to USD 2,164.2 million (USD 1,719.7 million as of 31 December 2012) of which USD 1,916.6 million was the capitalised value of the Company's drilling rigs as follows:

  • Sevan Driller USD 622.5 million (USD 646.2 million as of 31 December 2012),
  • Sevan Brasil USD 654.8 million (USD 681.3 million as of 31 December 2012),
  • Sevan Louisiana USD 563.5 million (USD 111.8 million as of 31 December 2012),
  • Sevan Developer USD 75.8 million (USD 61.2 million as of 31 December 2012).

Cash and cash equivalents amounted to USD 128.7 million as of 31 December 2013 (USD 76.8 million as of 31 December 2012).

On 8 October, Sevan Drilling made a drawdown of USD 1,400 million under its new term loan. The amount was used to repay the loans secured against Sevan Driller and Sevan Brasil and to pay the final instalment to Cosco on Sevan Louisiana. The remaining commitment will be used to part finance the final instalment to Cosco for Sevan Developer. Seadrill Limited, the majority shareholder, has guaranteed the new term loan.

Sevan Drilling has also entered into a Revolving Credit Facility in the amount of USD 100 million with Seadrill. No drawdown had been made under this facility as of 31 December 2013.

Seadrill has furthermore made a commitment to the Company's lenders to provide additional funding (by way of an increase in the revolving credit facility and/or an underwriting of an equity issue) to cover a possible liquidity shortfall if the Company takes delivery of Sevan Developer in an amount of up to USD 120 million.

Seadrill also provides certain management support and administrative services to the Company and charged the Company fees for these services of USD 2.2 million in 2013. These amounts are included in "Operating expenses" and "Current liabilities".

Additional rigs for delivery

Sevan Louisiana:

The rig was delivered from Cosco 23 October 2013 and is now in transit to the US Gulf of Mexico. The estimated start-up of its contract with LLOG Bluewater is April 2014.

Sevan Developer:

The construction is progressing according to plan. Cosco has, however, notified the Company that delivery will be delayed due to delays in deliveries from its sub-

contractors. The Company is in a dialogue with Cosco on the fixing of a new delivery date. It appears likely that this will be in Q3 2014.

Events since the end of the quarter

Other than the indicated delay in the delivery of Sevan Developer, no events have occurred which would have significantly impacted the consolidated financial statements set forth below.

Outlook

The process focused on integrating the Company's operations with those of Seadrill as set forth in the management agreements concluded between Seadrill and the Company in the third quarter 2013 continues.

Seadrill has assumed full responsibility for the operation of Sevan Driller and Sevan Brasil, the mobilisation of Sevan Louisiana and the construction and marketing of Sevan Developer. The Company expects to realise significant improvements in operational efficiency, safety and cost control in 2014 as a consequence of this.

The Company has reduced its own cost base in parallel with the phasing in of Seadrill's services under the management agreements. This is expected to take effect from Q1 2014.

The Company has already recognised the benefits of Seadrill's support through the refinancing of its bank facilities in 2013.

The possibility of not taking delivery of Sevan Developer remains available to the Company. The consequence of this will be a loss of the payments so far made to Cosco and committed pre-operational costs, USD 75.8 million as of 31 December 2013, and estimated USD 110 to 120 million in Q3 2014.

This, however, is not the preferred option for the Company but an alternative which will be considered if it appears unlikely that an acceptable contract can be secured for the rig.

Seadrill is actively marketing Sevan Developer under its marketing agreement with the Company.

The market has experienced a noticeable weakening going into 2014 as a consequence of a reduction in demand combined with increasing supply of new units being delivered and existing units coming off contracts.

While the short term outlook for the ultradeep water market where the Company operates is challenging, the Company remains of the opinion that the long term prospects for the Company's services remain firm.

The demand from oil companies for drilling services on ultra-deep water is expected to remain strong both in order to explore new areas and to analyse and develop recent discoveries.

The Company believes that Sevan ultradeep water rigs are well positioned to meet this demand in the years to come because of the technical and design capabilities of its rigs.

The Company expects to draw part of the amount available under the Revolving Credit Facility provided by Seadrill in Q2 2014. The Company believes that this facility will be sufficient to cover the Company's liquidity needs going forward if the Company decides not to take delivery of Sevan Developer.

If the Company decides to take delivery of Sevan Developer following the securing of an acceptable contract, further financing (in addition to the USD 350 million available for drawing under the Company's term loan) needs to be raised in an amount of USD 100-150 million. The Company will consider all available alternatives for securing this together with Seadrill.
