Arabian Drilling Company said it is discussing contract suspensions related to three offshore rigs with Saudi Aramco.

The suspensions are for a period of up to 12 months, the onshore and offshore drilling contractor said in a statement to the Saudi stock exchange.

The impacted rigs and the timing of the suspensions are yet to be confirmed.

Arabian Drilling said it expects revenue to continue growing year-on-year with the contribution of the unconventional gas land rigs coming on stream in the third quarter of 2024.
