Well, there's "Management" for you. DODI was first driven into Bankruptcy by the Outsider who took over after Bob Rose departed. Now they've been 'Acquired' by a company that made it's name putting clapped out relics to work when the trend was building new tonnage. The 'Race to the Bottom' is alive and well, it would seem. How long until the remaining equity vanishes, carried off in the pockets of a few, and yet another Chapter 11 is declared. The ghost of Jack Welch lives on........
How have you managed this, when you had to sell some of your assets so you was able to aquire maersk drilling, due to monopoly laws. Fair play though, well done
Excited to meet our new colleagues!
Congratulations to Robert and the Board. Leaders make and leaders break. I believe Noble is ready to move things up. We should be very proud of our leading drillers who keep us on top of the world with their talents and business know how. We have let Chinese take away our rig shipyards. Let us support our Drilling Contractors. No negatives.
Think about this one less competitor means cornering the market and dictating things like salary ?
This is brilliant news, congratulations to all involved!
Been through being bought out on multiple occasions. Never ends well for the employees of the company that is being bought. Good luck to you guys.
Just like the TO and GSF “merger” it was a disaster for the TO people.
