Order Backlog

For contracts which include a market indexed rate mechanism, the Company utilizes the current applicable dayrate multiplied by the number of days remaining in the firm contract period.

Client Contract Duration, Timing and Dayrates and Risks Associated with Operations

The duration and timing (including both starting and ending dates) of the client contracts are estimates only, and client contracts are subject to cancellation, suspension and delays for a variety of reasons, including some beyond the control of Seadrill Limited. Furthermore, the dayrates set forth in the report are estimates based upon the full contractual operating dayrate. However, the actual average dayrate earned over the course of any given contract will be lower and could be substantially lower. The actual average dayrate will depend upon a number of factors (rig downtime, suspension of operations, etc.), including some beyond the control of Seadrill Limited. Our client contracts and operations are generally subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, and we urge you to review the description and explanation of such risks and uncertainties in previous prospectus. The dayrates do not include revenue for mobilizations, demobilizations, upgrades, or shipyards. Furthermore, mutually agreed (priced) options are not included in the contract status or the contract coverage (nor in the calculation of utilization).
