Drillships - they have cargo, but don’t ship the cargo. Don’t think there is an offshore drilling board these days, so I figure I’d post here.
Noble Corp (NE) is scrapping two modern offshore drillships the company own via its acquisition of Pacific Drilling some years ago.
The vessels are 10 and 14 years of age. Noble had acquired Diamond Offshore in Sept 2024, and added 7th generation drilling assets

I guess, I might understand scrapping the 14-yo vessel. But, the 10-yo drillship?
