8. Ocean GreatWhite Insurance Claim

On February 1, 2024, the Ocean GreatWhite reported an equipment incident while located in the North Sea west of the Shetland Islands. The rig’s lower marine riser package (or LMRP) and deployed riser string unintentionally separated from the rig at the slip joint tensioner ring, and the LMRP and riser dropped to the seabed. Since the incident, we have been working closely with our customer and local authorities in response and have pursued efforts to recover the equipment and replace missing or damaged equipment. We have safely recovered the LMRP from the seabed and are in a repair facility in Kishorn port, where repairs to the LMRP and any related work are underway.

As of the date of this report, $19.1 million of incremental recovery and repair and maintenance costs have been incurred, as well as $2.6 million in capital expenditures. At March 31, 2024, we had retired assets with an aggregate net book value of $3.3 million. We anticipate that the repairs and equipment replacement will be covered by our hull and machinery insurance policy and that all incremental costs, less our $10.0 million deductible, will be reimbursable under that policy. At March 31, 2024, we had recorded an insurance receivable in the amount of $11.7 million for the aggregate expenditures, less the deductible, as of that date. However, we cannot fully predict the extent of such insurance coverage or the timing of such claims. We had not received any proceeds from insurance as of March 31, 2024. In addition, we will be required to pay an additional loss premium of up to 3.5% of net insurance proceeds received, payable after the claim is closed and all proceeds known.
