Hemmingsen, CEO of Maersk Drilling Partner & member of the Group Executive Board (Maersk Drilling, Maersk Supply Service, Maersk FPSOs, Maersk LNG and Svitzer) Dear colleagues, Almost halfway through the year we continue the positive development from 2010. Our first quarter result was very promising. We have recommitted to growth with the order of four new units. Our operational performance is at a very satisfactory level, and 94 percent of our available rig time in 2011 is contracted at attractive rate levels. This was reflected in our first quarter result, which improved substantially compared to first quarter of 2010. That is something we can all take pride in. Our performance lays the foundation for future growth Of paramount importance to me and to the company is that this achievement goes hand-in-hand with a continuously improving HSE performance. We have seen two LTIs so far in 2011 – two LTIs are still two too many, but we have again proven that it is possible to run our operation without serious personal injuries. It is worth mentioning that 23 of our 28 rigs haven’t had an LTI for more than a year. Well done ! Operationally, we have also seen great performance on most of our rigs. An example of this is the MAERSK RESOLUTE, which managed to turn an average performance around and make it a top quartile performance. Inside this magazine you can read more about MAERSK RESOLUTE’s fine achievement, which was praised by our customer, DONG Energy. We mustered a good average 95.88 percent uptime across the fleet in 2011 so far. That renders us slightly behind our target of 97 percent and below what our customers expect of us. But we’re steadily getting there and I encourage all of you to keep up the good work to reach and exceed 97 percent. Our daily performance lays the foundation for Maersk Drilling’s success and future growth. Pursuing our growth strategy We have a clear ambition to grow the rig fleet. We will focus our growth on three segments: Norway, high-end rigs and deepwater. This is where we see the biggest potential. And these are the areas where our customers have expressed a need for more high-end equipment. During the first five months of 2011, I visited several customers, both at headquarter and regional levels. Their message was clear: there is a need for more high-end equipment capable of operating consistently, effectively and safely in the ever more complex tasks of deepwater exploration and development – as well as in enhancing recovery rates in existing, mature fields. We find these markets attractive and we firmly believe we can deliver and perform beyond our customers’ expectations. Hence, in April we ordered two new drillships, with an option for an additional two. These drillships are capable of operating in water depths of up to 12,000 feet and they are extremely well equipped. The drillships add to our existing deepwater fleet of three semisubmersibles. With five deepwater units, we will be the seventh biggest contractor in the deepwater market. Our ambitions reach higher, however, and we will continuously look for new opportunities. Customer focus is everything A prerequisite for our future growth and success is a close relationship with our customers. Their demands point towards closer cooperation, where we set out to create value together. Going forward, we will focus on the mutual benefits of such enhanced cooperation. We have many good success stories to build on, so we should be able to take advantage of future opportunities. Our sales force will work hard to engage in a closer dialogue with our customers. According to our 2011 priority, ‘Getting closer to our customers’, the commercial department is currently developing a framework to achieve this goal. Martin Fruergaard, our Chief Commercial Officer, elaborates on this inside the magazine. In closing this editorial, let me repeat: key to our success remains to exceed our customers’ expectations to perform to the highest standards; effectively, consistently and safely. Every day counts and every little bit of our overall performance contributes and makes a difference. We called 2010 our ‘Year of Delivery’. Let us all build on that. Let us constructively get even closer to our customers and make 2011 the year where we combine outstanding performance with an enhanced customer focus. Until next time: be safe, offshore as well as onshore! Maersk Drilling Newsletter_2_June2011.indd 3 3 16-06-2011 08:56:06 Newsletter – June 2011 “These will be the first drillships in Maersk Drilling’s ultra-deepwater fleet. They will complement our existing three deepwater semisubmersibles and they will add a new, important aspect in our offering to our customers in the ultra-deepwater market.” Claus V. Hemmingsen 4 Maersk Drilling Newsletter_2_June2011.indd 4 16-06-2011 08:56:08 Newsletter – June 2011 Maersk Drilling sets sail for deeper waters By Christine Bülow-Olsen, Strategy & Communication, Copenhagen On Tuesday 5 April, we signed a contract for the construction of two ultra-deepwater drillships, the first in our fleet. “We see an increasing amount of the global oil and gas production coming from deepwater. Especially in the US Gulf of Mexico, Brazil and West Africa, the need for modern deepwater units is urgent,” says CCO Martin Fruergaard. “Seeking to profit from this development, we made the decision to order the two new drillships.” Superior design targeted towards ultra-deepwater Designed to meet tomorrow’s requirements for ultra-deepwater drilling, the drillships are capable of operating in water depths up to 12,000 feet and drill wells of more than 40,000 feet. Another feature that makes them especially suited for deepwater drilling is the advanced positioning control system with a very high level of redundancy. The system enables the drillships to remain positioned even in severe weather conditions. Similar to the design philosophy on our ultra-deepwater semisubmersibles, the 228-metre-long drillship design includes features for high-efficiency operation. The drillships are equipped with a double derrick, which allows for simultaneous activities. The extensive storage and tank capacities provide an advantage when operating in areas with less developed infrastructure and limited supplier presence. Together with the higher transit speed, the increased capacity will reduce the overall logistic costs for the oil companies. Focus on safety Safety is a predominant prerequisite for a successful operation and it was an important focus area throughout the design process. “We paid special attention to the safety on board when designing the rigs,” says CTO Frederik Smidth. “For instance, the drillships are equipped with multi-machine control on the drill floor, which allows for a large degree of automation, ensuring safe operation and consistent performance. Another vital feature are the escape routes in the hull that make escape much safer in case of an emergency.” “We definitely had our people in mind when designing the rigs,” says Jesper B. Madsen, Head of HR. “It is the people who are responsible for the future success of the operation. They deserve the best conditions.” The drillships are to be built at Samsung Heavy Industries in Korea with delivery in the second half of 2013. The contract includes an option for two additional drillships to be declared primo October at the latest. The total project cost for the two drillships is close to USD 1.3 billion. Features • Dual pipe handling • Main well centre derrick capacity up to 2.5 million pounds • Casing of up to 16” diameter can be racked back in triples • Total drilling depth of up to 40,000 feet • Multi-machine control (MMC) • Fully remote-operated pipe handling Designed with people in mind The drillships will be able to accommodate 230 people in single and two-man cabins. With separation between the busy areas – such as the offices, mess, galley, changing rooms, recreation rooms, cinema – and the sleeping areas, the design further enhances the working environment on board. system • Dual mud system • 8 dual wire line tensioners • 15,000 psi BOP stack equipped with 6 ram cavities • Lower marine riser package with two 10,000 psi rated annulars Maersk Drilling Newsletter_2_June2011.indd 5 5 16-06-2011 08:56:10 Newsletter – June 2011 Creating value with ConocoPhillips By Christine Bülow-Olsen, Strategy & Communication, Copenhagen At MÆRSK INNOVATOR, the performance is top quartile. And it is not just because of the superior equipment and the advanced technologies. Mostly it is due to the people onboard and their close cooperation with our customer, ConocoPhillips. The good relationship with ConocoPhillips really shined at a recent team-building event arranged by the MÆRSK INNOVATOR crew and rig team. Held Thursday 28 April, the event took place at an old manor in Ringsted, just an hour’s drive from Copenhagen. Six representatives from ConocoPhillips, as well as their subcontractors, joined the event and from the outside it looked like one big team. The dining room at the manor is full to overflowing with men and women chatting about the events of the day. Everyone laughs and teases each other about funny episodes from the team-building sessions. One of the participants got a little too much sun, which no one makes him forget. Soon it turns out that the unfortunate sunbather is a ConocoPhillips representative – no one is sacred just because of their status as customer. Flexibility to be spontaneous “Having a close collaboration where both parties understand and respect each other is vital for every buyer/supplier relationship,” says Rig Manager Henrik T. Christensen. “It is what paves the way for a mutual value creation. And in the end, value creation is what we are aiming for,” he continues. “The feeling of being one big team ensures a more agile operation. And in an industry like ours this is extremely important. On MÆRSK INNOVATOR, the crew is very good at meeting the customer and helping out when needed. This means that when our customer has a spontaneous need for a change, we always try to stretch that extra mile to help out. And that is the foundation for the fine achievements we see on this rig,” Henrik T. Christensen says. The future brings us closer together “At MÆRSK INNOVATOR, the teamwork between Maersk Drilling and ConocoPhillips is 6 characterised by a common understanding and respect for each other’s business goals. Everyone recognises the importance of always delivering according to the plan,” Henrik T. Christensen explains. But going forward, Henrik T. Christensen predicts an even closer need for integration between operator and contractor. “The competition still gets fiercer. To succeed in an industry like ours we must think of new ways to engage with our customers. I believe that a closer cooperation with the oil companies is the way forward. And to me, the performance on MÆRSK INNOVATOR proves just that. I think that our good relationship with ConocoPhillips is a big part of our success.” “Already from the beginning of an operation we should sit down together and plan for an operation. If we do that – if we prepare the drilling programmes in close cooperation – we ensure that everyone understands why a given procedure is as it is and we ensure that everyone buys into the operation. If we develop a plan together – if we both take on the responsibility – we will succeed in the future. And we will create value together,” Henrik T. Christensen concludes. Maersk Drilling Newsletter_2_June2011.indd 6 16-06-2011 08:56:13 Newsletter – June 2011 What does it take to be a top performing rig ? By Henrik T. Christensen, Rig Manager, MÆRSK INNOVATOR review. Here the rig management had the opportunity to receive both positive and negative feedback from the offshore employees. The first session held in April was a great success. The action plan from fall 2010 was discussed. Generally, there is a feeling that offshore is ‘moving away from the office’, primarily due to lack of communication. A lot of initiatives have been identified to improve in this area, including re-establishing the heliport meeting, where the rig manager and the rig team are available for an informational talk. Engagement and performance are closely linked, and driving a high level of engagement supports driving high performance. On MÆRSK INNOVATOR, focus is on following up on the engagement survey. To avoid lack of focus on the already established action plans, the rig management decided to include the engagement survey as a fixed item in the MÆRSK INNOVATOR 2011 HMS programme. Conducting the engagement survey does not automatically create positive changes with our personnel. Management commitment is the key for a successful follow-up process. Rig team, offshore management and employees should always respond to the survey results and consistently followup on actions. The HMS programme is reviewed offshore during the monthly HMS meeting and every quarter during the onshore Rig AMU meetings. Here we have the opportunity to discuss our progress. The section leaders and rig manager are still responsible for providing feedback on the individual action plan to the crew on a regular basis. This ensures that engagement is constantly on the agenda. Taking action on the survey results On MÆRSK INNOVATOR, the offshore section leaders and the rig manager have prepared a set of action plans to ensure a successful follow-up process. The plans are closely linked to the implementation of POPII. Team building for onshore and offshore employees During two onshore team-building events in spring, the main topics were the implementation of POPII and EES follow-up The crew also felt they were not given enough information about rig performance and how this compares with competitor rig performance. It is difficult to gain access to competitor performance, but to increase the level of information given MÆRSK INNOVATOR will now share internal performance ratings, including MÆRSK INNOVATOR’s monthly KPI score and quarterly fleet score, as well as all available data received from the customer. With the engagement survey, we create and support the company in fulfilling our vision to be a company where high performers at all levels are attracted, developed, managed and retained. Maersk Drilling Newsletter_2_June2011.indd 7 7 16-06-2011 08:56:16 Newsletter – June 2011 Getting closer to our customers “In 2011, our top commercial priority is to get even closer to our customers to ensure that we achieve maximum value for the service we deliver,” Chief Commercial Officer, Martin Fruergaard. In the previous edition of the Newsletter, our COO Jørn Madsen explained the rationale for one of our two 2011 priorities; getting our service right. In this issue, our CCO Martin Fruergaard explains about the second priority; getting closer to our customers. What will we do to get closer to our customers ? To put it simply, we will focus on our customer approach. Basically, what we will do is : • Prioritise the customers to ensure that we use the majority of our efforts on the customers who recognise the value of our service offering • Focus on the customers who have future growth potential and who are present in our strategic focus areas; Norway, and the deepwater and highend markets • Engage closely with our customers to learn about their needs and to find out what creates value for them • Further increase our knowledge about our key customers’ organisations • Network with our customers at all levels of their organisations Why is getting closer to our customers top priority in 2011 ? It is actually pretty simple. If we understand our customers’ needs and continue to meet, or preferably exceed, their expectations we will remain their 8 preferred drilling contractor. That will help us secure both contract renewals and new contracts. And in the end that enables us to maximise our earnings and support our growth ambitions. What have we done to get closer to our customers ? We have already defined our key customers. At the moment we have contracts in place with all but one of our key customers. This means that we have our rigs contracted to customers who value our service offering and are present in the markets that fit our strategic ambitions. An example of a market which we have pursued for a long time is the West African deepwater market. Maersk Drilling has worked hard to establish ourselves in this market where we see great potential. And with MÆRSK DELIVERER’s presence we managed to do just that. That being said, I think it is important to state that all customers are important, but some hold more potential than others, and it is with them that we should focus the majority of our efforts. Going forward, what can we do to ensure we always deliver maximum earnings ? We have to regularly review the key customer list to ensure that we are targeting the right customers. The market changes all the time and we need to stay at the forefront of this development. Getting even closer to our customers will be key in this process. Our main obligation is to understand changing market conditions. And based on this knowledge, make the right commercial decision in respect to pursuing long or short-term employment, decide which customers and contracts to pursue and make solid recommendations in respect to ordering new assets. Finally, we need to constantly improve the way in which we transform our innovative rig design and capabilities into better earnings. Based on our operational performance in terms of safety, efficiency and consistency, we have to develop a structured way to gain a fair share of the additional value we provide our customers. Maersk Drilling Newsletter_2_June2011.indd 8 16-06-2011 08:56:17 Newsletter – June 2011 DONG Energy praises MAERSK RESOLUTE for ‘a world class operation’ By Dorte Schnack, QM/HSE Advisor, MAERSK RESOLUTE rig team On 7 April, MAERSK RESOLUTE received a farewell letter from DONG Energy praising the crew and all onshore personnel involved in the operation of the rig for a very successful and safe performance. The reason for the letter was the remarkable effort carried out by the entire MAERSK RESOLUTE team to turn around an average performance. Now, at the end of the contract, MAERSK RESOLUTE is a top performing rig delivering wells on or below budget, DONG Energy writes. A fully dedicated Rig Team The main reason for the good performance was the productive teamwork with DONG Energy. Since March 2010 the MAERSK RESOLUTE rig team has been located in DONG Energy’s head office in Nærum. “The daily contact with DONG Energy enabled excellent communication and the opportunity to take the idea of a ‘one rig dedicated’ rig team to its full potential,” says Rig Manager Henrik Lisbjerg. need to discuss why safety is an important part of everything we do, and in this way, the horrible accident was incorporated into our culture,” Henrik Lisbjerg says. Now MAERSK RESOLUTE has achieved over 500 days without any LTIs and on 7 April the rig received its first HSE Award for 90 days without any dropped objects, spills or TRCs. Besides having a motivational impact, improving the safety performance has also freed up a lot of time to be proactive. When less time is spent following up on incidents and accidents, more time can be spent on preventing new ones. In fact, 477 potential dropped objects have been identified and removed in the past 12 months on MAERSK RESOLUTE. New challenges MAERSK RESOLUTE has now been sublet to Total Netherlands E&P – and with the rig operating in the Netherlands – the rig team has moved its base back to Lyngby. Meanwhile, the Rig Manager and Assistant Rig Manager will spend most weekdays in The Hague in the Netherlands supporting Total directly. “This setup will present new challenges with the distance to the Netherlands and the rig team sitting in two locations. We are, however, dedicated to building the same teamwork-relationship with Total, and look forward to the opportunity to provide them with the same experience as the one we gave DONG Energy – a world class operation,” Henrik Lisbjerg ends. The rig team’s frequent visits to the rig also played an important role in improving the teamwork. These visits strengthened the relations and mutual understanding of each person’s role within the team. Safety as a natural part of operation One necessity for improving performance is to have a crew dedicated to being the best. Since the horrible fatality on MAERSK RESOLUTE in November 2009, every person involved in the operation of the rig has been highly aware of the potential consequences when safety barriers are not in place. “We never Maersk Drilling Newsletter_2_June2011.indd 9 9 16-06-2011 08:56:19 Newsletter – June 2011 Status on downtime reduction system : implemented ! By Kristian Coff-Petersen, Performance and Processes, Copenhagen From mid-March to end-May, the Performance and Processes team tested the new downtime reduction system. The system was tested on 16 rigs for approximately two months. The system quickly became a success. After 9 weeks of testing more than 150 down time reduction reports were made and several of the reports led to knowledge sharing across asset teams and rigs. The thorough testing ensured that we were comfortable going live with the system on 1 June. Why do we need a Downtime Reduction System ? As a company, we have not had a structured approach to proactively minimising operational down time. This resulted in delays on our customers’ AFE and timedepth performance, and it impacted us negatively financially. It is our strategy to deliver superior operational performance and we want our customers to recognise us for this. In order to differentiate ourselves from the competition, we continuously look for opportunities that can improve our operational performance. Every down time occurrence is an opportunity to learn and become better. We must use these lessons to reduce the frequency of down time occurrences and limit their impact in the future. When we have down time, we are good at implementing corrective actions quickly to get us back in operation again. The What are the main uses of the downtime reduction system ? Crew and Supervisors : • Active role in analysis of root causes and finding the right preventive actions • Supervise and perform implementation of preventive actions OIMs : • Delegate analysis to a team or individuals as described by the documents and process in SIRIUS • Delegate actions to supervisors and monitor the implementation of preventive actions • Ensure knowledge sharing across crew rotations 10 Rig Managers : • Track progress on how the crew handles downtime on an overall level • Information on practical initiatives to minimise downtime and impact of downtime that can be used towards the customer • Active role to support crew in analysing and preventing complex downtime situations Asset teams : • Share best practises on downtime root causes and solutions (preventive actions) across rigs and asset teams effectively and swiftly • Information on key challenge areas across a portfolio of sister rigs new system aims at taking us to the next level in handling downtime: fixing the root causes of down time and preventing down time in the future. From a financial perspective the Downtime Reduction System aims at continuously reducing the loss of revenue caused by downtime, which in 2010 amounted to more than USD 45 million. What is the Downtime Reduction System ? The system has two components: • A process and documentation that will enable employees to conduct highquality root cause analysis and identify proper preventive actions. • Process integration in SAP and Outlook/ Groupwise emails to facilitate easy progress tracking, follow-up and knowledge sharing. Going forward Changing how we work is always challenging and a more proactive approach to downtime reduction requires that we do just that. As Head of Performance and Processes Lars Ostergaard puts it : “If we want better results we must do something different. The efforts and willingness to try out our new downtime reduction system by offshore crews have been admirable and signals that Maersk Drilling employees are dedicated to operational performance. By continuing with this dedication to use the system to reduce downtime, the quality of the analysis will continue to improve and we will be a lot more effective at fighting downtime across Maersk Drilling in the future.” Maersk Drilling Newsletter_2_June2011.indd 10 16-06-2011 08:56:19 Newsletter – June 2011 MAERSK GUARDIAN pays Hirtshals a visit By Sietze Akkerman, Technical Organisation, Copenhagen The small town of Hirtshals in North Jutland currently hosts MAERSK GUARDIAN while it is in for a major upgrade. The primary objective of the project is to extend the operational life of the rig for yet another ten years in the North Sea. The work scope for the upgrade is diverse. It aims at extending the rig’s operational life, while also providing better facilities for the crew. Major facility changes include the accommodation area, which will be upgraded to provide better living standards for the crew. Most of the furniture and fittings in the crew’s living quarters will be replaced. The rig will also be home to a new pilot programme called ‘turnbeds’. A crew member can move from day to night shift, or vice versa, by rotating the suspended bed over its axis length. Operationally, the driller’s cabin will be replaced to provide more space. This ensures a better user-interface with the drill floor. The rig also receives some major hardware upgrades, including a new blow out prevenMAERSK GUARDIAN arrives at Hirtshals Harbour ter (BOP) and associated hoisting equipment. In addition, the rig’s moonpool will be structurally reinforced to support the new BOP. Other big jobs include the installation of a new texas deck and aft crane, as well as a significant number of upgrades and overhauls to the electrical and control systems. A new experience for Hirtshals Hirtshals has a long history as a fishing community and, as a major ferry port to Norway, tourism also plays a role in the town. However, the berthing of a drilling rig is an altogether new experience for the 7000 local inhabitants. Public interest has been high, with locals lining up along the quayside to watch MAERSK GUARDIAN’s arrival. MAERSK GUARDIAN has already brought its first challenge to the project team, arriving a few weeks ahead of schedule. But thanks to teamwork, and the flexibility of the rig crew and subcontractors, everything is going according to plan. Project Manager Erik Jensen said: “Communication with the local authorities and emergency services has been extensive and from the outset we’ve kept the local community well-informed of the rig’s arrival.” The yard stay for MAERSK GUARDIAN began on 29 April and is expected to take approximately 80 days. MAERSK GUARDIAN praised for good performance Prior to its yard stay, MAERSK GUARDIAN operated for Talisman in the Norwegian part of the North Sea. And at the end of the contract Talisman expressed great satisfaction with the rig and her crew. In a letter Talisman’s drilling team wrote : “The results, both with respect to HSE and operational efficiency, have been outstanding. We would like to thank every single one in the MAERSK GUARDIAN crew for their effort, which has been a vital part of achieving such good results. Thank you all, Talisman MAErsk Guardian drilling team” Maersk Drilling Newsletter_2_June2011.indd 11 11 16-06-2011 08:56:21 SAFETY Newsletter – June 2011 Safety bulletin Six lost time incidents (LTIs) and 33 total recordable cases (TRCs) occurred in Maersk Drilling from May 2010 to April 2011.

Hemmingsen sent out a letter to all OIMs in connection with the Macondo accident, where he emphasised everyone’s obligation to stop a job if it is potentially unsafe. What have you done on this matter ? I continuously stress to all managers, supervisors and the crew that safety and good oil field practice is not something that can be switched on and off to suit the situation at hand. Safety and compliance with procedures is the cornerstone of how we do our business. How do you see safety on MAERSK DISCOVERER ? The willingness to work safely is high. Everyone does their utmost to ensure a safe environment on the rig. However, with a relatively new crew that hasn’t worked together for little more than a year there is always room for improvement. What do you do on MAERSK DISCOVERER to promote a safer environment ? I encourage an open dialogue about safety and improvements. The right and moral obligation to stop an unsafe job is a mantra on the MAERSK DISCOVERER.

How do you think we can improve safety in Maersk Drilling ? We have to focus on accountability and ownership at all levels of the organisation. If we all truly feel we own safety and have a personal responsibility for living safely, we have come a long way towards an incident-free environment. This, however, cannot stand alone; it needs to be backed up by continuous enhancement of our management systems. Maersk Drilling Newsletter_2_June2011.indd 13 13 16-06-2011 08:56:22 Environment Newsletter – december 2010 Environment bulletin Maersk Drilling has a strong focus on the environment. We perform daily quality checks of incident reports with regards to external spills/discharges, as well as accidental spills/discharges contained on board. During the past 12 month period, we have had a number of spills, including oily products spills, chemical spills and drilling fluid spills.

Madsen “Building on the dedication of our employees, I am very excited about the prospects for the future of our company.” Jesper B. Madsen, Head of HR 01 04 You have recently developed an HR strategy for the period 2011 – 2013. Why do we need such a strategy ? What are our specific plans to solve this challenge ? Maersk Drilling is in a very attractive situation. We have modern and competitive rigs, good contract coverage and strong financial and operational performance. Combined, these factors give us license to grow our fleet. To grow, and thereby benefit from this situation, we face a couple of HR challenges. Notably attracting and retaining enough employees with the right competencies. Our HR strategy is focused on finding solutions to that challenge. 02 So what are the core solutions of the HR strategy ? Put simply the core solutions focus on : a)Attracting talented employees so we can grow our business. b)Building the competencies of our employees so we can safely and effectively operate our superior equipment. c)Developing our leaders so they are best in the industry. 03 What is our biggest HR challenge ? As mentioned before, we need competent employees. Currently the overall work population in the industry is aging, meanwhile the inflow of young people is decreasing. So the biggest challenge is to ensure we remain attractive to the best employees in the industry. Firstly, we must invest massively in developing the many good employees we already have in Maersk Drilling. Secondly, we will identify which institutions, schools, companies and specific locations we can build our future recruitment efforts around. Thirdly, we will try to ensure that new employees are introduced to Maersk Drilling in the best way possible. So in May this year, we’re rolling out an improved introduction process for new employees in Maersk Drilling. 05 What do we do to ensure that we have the best leaders ? During 2011 – 2012, we will have all our leaders both on and offshore participate in our core leadership programmes: ‘Leading Others’ and ‘Leading Leaders’. Furthermore we will provide extensive learning programmes for our rig and asset managers at the business school of IMD in Lausanne. I don’t know of any other drilling company that invests as much in leadership as we do. We do this because it makes business sense; good leaders lead to an engaged workforce, which again leads to improved business performance. All in all, we do have some big HR challenges, but I am certain we will solve them. Maersk Drilling Newsletter_2_June2011.indd 15 15 16-06-2011 08:56:24 MARKET INSIDE Newsletter – June 2011 Deepwater – a compelling growth story in the offshore universe By Michael Harboe-Jørgensen, Head of Strategy & Communication, Copenhagen In April this year, Maersk Drilling signed a contract for two ultra-deepwater drillships. The decision to expand our business within the deepwater segment is based on a continued positive outlook on the fundamentals of the deepwater floater market. In this version of the Market Inside we present our view of the deepwater market. Within the global floater fleet, the ultradeepwater floater segment (7500ft+) is by far the fastest growing. It has expanded from less than 10 units in 2000, to 93 units today, with an additional 68 units under construction. Historically, the global ultra-deepwater market has been characterised by a very high utilisation – above 95 percent and fluctuating rates. During the 2005 – 2008 offshore rig boom, the ultra-deepwater rates increased from around USD 200,000 per day, peaking at USD 650,000 per day. During the 2009 – 2010 downturn, which was driven by the oil price collapse in 2008, the ultra-deepwater market remained close to full utilisation and day rates remained strong – bottoming out around USD 400,000 per day. The short to medium term demand for deepwater rigs is expected to remain robust. The key deepwater development areas such as Brazil, US Gulf of Mexico and West Africa, make good economics at the current forward oil price curve (current price above USD 100 per barrel), and with break-even prices of USD 70 per 16 barrel and below, we expect to see a significant increase in the final investment decisions and project sanctions over the next years. Deepwater share of world production (>400m) 10% 9% On the longer term, the attractive structural fundamentals of the oil market will drive demand for deepwater drilling rigs. Global demand for oil is expected to grow by ~1 percent p.a., and accelerating decline in production capacity from mature basins implies that more than one-third of the current production capacity must be replaced through 2035. In order to explore and develop new production capacity, oil companies are shifting to new frontiers as the ‘easy’ fields are rapidly maturing. These new frontiers include deepwater and other non-conventional resources. Deepwater will be key to increasing the global oil supply in the future and it represents the main area for production growth offshore. Since 2000, the deepwater share of total oil production has increased from around 2 percent to around 6 – 7 percent in 2010. The upward trend is expected to continue 8% 7% 6% 5% 4% 3% IHS CERA Wood Mackenzie 2% 1% 0% 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010E 2011E 2012E 2013E 2014E 2015E Source: IHS CERA, Wood Mackenzie, Maersk Drilling with the share of deepwater production increasing to 8 – 9 percent in 2015. Deepwater is still a relatively new area, which has mostly focused on exploration. Historic drilling patterns in more mature regions show that exploration drilling dominates in the early stage and remains more or less constant, while development drilling gradually starts dominating. Extrapolating this pattern to deepwater drilling suggests a significant increase in deepwater development drilling activity. Maersk Drilling Newsletter_2_June2011.indd 16 16-06-2011 08:56:26 Newsletter – June 2011 C & R Asset and Rig Managers met in Rotterdam By Ben Pomford, Operations, Copenhagen On Wednesday 13 April, the quarterly Asset and Rig Managers meeting was held in Rotterdam for all the R and C rigs. The meeting was part of the follow up to the recent course, the ‘Maersk Drilling way of winning’, held at the International Institute for Management Development (IMD) in Lausanne. Asset Manager Jørgen Schaffer opened the meeting with a presentation of the 2010 performance figures and KPIs for the R and C rigs. Jørgen Schaffer also touched upon main focus areas. Reduction in NPT flat spots, better planning and maintenance were all part of the discussion. Afterwards, Jørgen Schaffer gave a presentation on customer mapping, which is part of the IMD project charter. MAERSK RESOLUTE’s sublet to Total in Holland is a good example of our increased customer focus. Prior to start of that operation a meeting was held to discuss the needs and expectations of both parties. This reduced the risk for potential misunderstandings and paved the way for a successful contract execution. The Maersk Drilling way of winning The remainder of the morning featured several more presentations. COO Jørn Madsen presented the ‘Maersk Drilling way of winning’. He was followed by the performance and processes team that further elaborated on the Maersk Drilling service delivery model, which is part of the ‘Maersk Drilling way of winning’. The last presentation of the morning was Blohm + Voss Repairs, who presented their new equipment. After lunch, the group was split into two. NOV talked about the C rigs, and Aker Solutions discussed the R rigs. They shared information on service and support as well as the upcoming five year class surveys for both sets of rigs. Visiting MAERSK REACHER After a quick change of clothes and a short bus ride to the Verolme shipyard, the group was greeted by the MAERSK REACHER project team leader, Per Strange Rasmussen. Per Strange Rasmussen gave a brief status update on MAERSK REACHER’s upgrade. This was followed by a tour of the rig led by Rig Manager Ejnar Sørensen, who showed the group the new spudcans and lift installation, as well as all the other parts of the ongoing upgrade. In June, after finalising the vast number of upgrades, the rig will be ready to commence work in Norway. Maersk Drilling Newsletter_2_June2011.indd 17 17 16-06-2011 08:56:28 Newsletter – June 2011 MÆRSK DELIVERER changed active heave compensator By Brian Meechan, OIM, MÆRSK DELIVERER In February, MÆRSK DELIVERER finalised her first contract with Dana Petroleum in Mauritania. This took her to her next destination: Ghana. Moving the rig from one country to another presented some challenges to the rig team and the crew. One of these challenges was the change out of one of the crown-mounted active heave compensator cylinders, part of the warranty work scope. Measuring nine metres and weighing three metric tonnes, this is a critical piece of equipment and a necessity for the new contract with HESS Ghana on their exploration well, Paradise–1. A great deal of pre-planning was carried out prior to the change out. This ensured that the work could be completed safely, with minimum disruption to the many other planned rig operations. 18 With the initial strip down and removal of the old cylinder, followed by installation of the new replacement cylinder, there was a potential risk of dropped objects. Therefore the rig team placed particular emphasis on mitigating the risk of DROPs. Fortune favoured us and the rig team had the added advantages of relatively fine weather throughout the operation, coupled with the inherent stability of the deepwater semisubmersible class. These factors greatly reduced the risks associated with carrying out this type of work during an open ocean transit. All safety precautions were in place throughout the operation, with prepared work permits and procedures for this challenging task, which was carried out at great heights. The Maersk Drilling personnel were primarily tasked with facilitating the installation team, comprised of technical staff from the manufacturer NOV and the rope access personnel from RBG. With the highest level of cooperation from all personnel, the rig team completed the task without any incidents. It was a very professional job with good teamwork displayed by all groups. Maersk Drilling Newsletter_2_June2011.indd 18 16-06-2011 08:56:30 Newsletter – June 2011 Great expectations in West Africa By Rikke Augustinus Eriksen, QM/HSE, Copenhagen Oil companies expect an increasingly high level of local content from their customers. In some areas, up to 50 percent of an operation is required to come from the local community in order to gain a licenseto-operate. When Maersk Drilling first arrived in Ghana, we were met with strict local content requirements from local authorities and labour unions. Ghanaian personnel In February 2011, MÆRSK DELIVERER, one of the most advanced high-end deepwater semisubmersibles in the world commenced operations in Ghana. No local offshore workers had experience with this kind of equipment. Nevertheless, the local authorities and labour unions required that any job that could be done by local staff should be done by Ghanaians. developing the local communities in which we work,” Jens Berge says. “Local content is as much an opportunity as it is a challenge to us. The opportunity lies in our socially responsible behaviour and the challenge lies in the higher risk of safety incidents and low performance. These challenges are however manageable as long as we are risk conscious,” he continues. Maersk Drilling expands In Maersk Drilling, we see an escalating necessity to strengthen our efforts in terms of engagement and dialogue with local external stakeholders. Close stakeholder relationships and partnerships play an essential role in making the most out of both society and business-related potentials and outcomes. With the recent investments in two ultra-deepwater drillships, West Africa is among other places, definitely an area to pursue. To operate in West Africa we are unquestionably expected to perform on local content. So this is an area that will get much more attention going forward. Local content in Maersk Drilling Maersk Drilling’s work with local content primarily consists of operational and contractual local investments, relating to local staffing, sourcing, capacity building, services, and secondarily of community engagement and voluntary local investments, such as donations. Building and maintaining industry relations is yet another essential concern, and one of the most imperative issues is local content. So prior to commencing work there, Rig Manager Jens Berge travelled to Ghana to meet with the Ghana National Petroleum Corporation (GNPC) and unions to come to a mutual agreement. Maersk Drilling and GNPC agreed that Maersk Drilling would take onboard a full local catering crew and hire Ghanaians for 50 percent of the positions, from derrick man, to motorman, roustabout and the like. Several local Ghanaians passed the competency requirements for these positions, and Maersk Drilling were able to uphold the desired high level of safety and performance from day one. Business and society : two sides of the same coin “We obviously have a great interest in following local terms and requirements and we see a great value in being part of “We consider local content a long-term strategic investment. Local content is good for society as well as for business. It has a great potential for strengthening our corporate reputation and competitive advantage.” Chief Commercial Officer Martin Fruergaard Maersk Drilling Newsletter_2_June2011.indd 19 19 16-06-2011 08:56:32 SHORT NEWS Newsletter – June 2011 Short news Electronic payslip From 30 April, all employees paid via MD Payroll will receive their payslips electronically via e-Boks.

Newsletter – June 2011 Dropped objects campaign 2011 In Q2, QM/HSE launched a DROPs campaign. The purpose of the campaign is to raise awareness about dropped objects and to decrease the number of actual dropped objects. The campaign has a theme song and it consists of various elements, such as give away items, posters, workshop presentations and a movie. KAN TAN IV exits the fleet In order to free resources for our newbuilding rigs, the operation of the KAN TAN IV has been discontinued. Maersk Drilling continues to manage the operation of the rig until the owner, Sinopec Star Petroleum Company Ltd. finds a new manager for the rig. Maersk Drilling has operated KAN TAN IV on behalf of Sinopec Star Petroleum Company Ltd. since 2001. During this period the rig has worked in Mexico, Trinidad & Tobago, Australia and New Zealand. Thank you to everyone having served onboard or with KAN TAN IV for the last ten years. Contract signed with Chevron On 23 May, Maersk Drilling signed a two-year contract with Cabinda Gulf Oil Limited (Chevron) for MÆRSK DELIVERER.

And on Wednesday 16 March 2011, MAERSK RESOLVE’s OIM/Barge Engineer Jannik Jensen visited Snoezlehuset, a special daycare centre at Kornvangen in Esbjerg to hand over a cheque for DKK 32,000. The money was raised onboard the three rigs during their annual Christmas Raffle. was the first time Jannik Jensen visited the daycare centre. Jannik was surprised to see the facilities at Snoezelhuset. He was amazed with the many innovative features designed to calm the children. “This is a really exciting place and I am confident that this is a very good recipient for our donation,” he concluded. A godsend for the daycare centre The manager at Snoezelhuset, Jytte Schmidt, says she already has a wish list for how to use the money. “We would like to have new floor plates that change colour when you step on them and a new stereo would definitely also come in handy. But all the new technology is very expensive,” Jytte Schmidt says. Filled with innovative features Even though Maersk Drilling has donated money to Snoezelhuset for 20 years, this From left: Anne Mette (chairman of the parent association at Snoezelhuset), Olivia (her daughter) and Jannik Jensen (OIM/Barge Engineer on MAERSK RESOLVE) OIMs and Senior Management discussed performance 22 Efficiency, safety and strategy were some of the topics touched upon at the annual Offshore Leadership Forum held in Copenhagen in early spring 2011. In 2011, we resumed an old tradition of gathering all Maersk Drilling OIMs for joint sessions in Copenhagen. This year, 32 OIMs found the time in their busy schedules to network and to join discussions on business and operational topics. operationally and to continuously deliver top performance. A mass of ideas came up. “Competencies, training, equipment and management systems all hold the key to top performance,” the OIMs agreed. “They are our core competencies. And it is the combination of our core competencies that brings the most value to our customers, shareholders and ourselves,” they stated. How do we ensure a successful operation? The conference was hosted by CEO Claus V. Hemmingsen, COO Jørn Madsen and Head of HR Jesper B. Madsen. It offered a mixture of workshops and discussions. One of the main topics was how to excel Safety was top of the agenda Safety was another main topic at the conference. All OIMs agreed that safety is a prerequisite for our future. Efficient communication is another vital enabler for success. Open two-way communication ensures a clear flow of information between offshore and onshore. Especially the communication among the management and the daily interaction between the OIMs and the crews, the OIMs agreed. A successful forum All in all, the OIM forum offered a lot of valuable input. The forum produced more than 70 action points, which have been assigned to the participants for follow up and execution during 2011. The Offshore Leadership Forum for OIMs is planned to be held annually. The next Forum is scheduled for Q1 2012.
