Nature of Operations [Line Items]
Nature of Operations	Nature of Operations
	Independence Contract Drilling, Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” or “ICD”) was incorporated in Delaware on November 4, 2011. We provide land-based contract drilling services for oil and natural gas producers targeting unconventional resource plays in the United States. We construct, own and operate a premium fleet comprised entirely of newly constructed, technologically advanced, custom designed ShaleDriller™ rigs that are specifically engineered and designed to optimize the development of our customers’ most technically demanding oil and gas properties. Our first rig began drilling in May 2012.
	Our standardized fleet consisted of fourteen premium rigs as of December 31, 2014. Of these fourteen rigs, three are currently under construction and scheduled for completion in 2015. Currently, twelve of our fourteen rigs contain our integrated multi-directional walking system that is specifically designed to optimize pad drilling for our customers.
	Our business depends on the level of exploration and production activity by oil and gas companies operating in the U.S., and in particular, the regions where we actively market our contract drilling services. The oil and gas exploration and production industry is a historically cyclical industry characterized by significant changes in the levels of exploration and development activities. Oil and gas prices and market expectations of potential changes in those prices significantly affect the levels of those activities. Worldwide political, regulatory, economic, and military events as well as natural disasters have contributed to oil and gas price volatility and are likely to continue to do so in the future. Any prolonged reduction in the overall level of exploration and development activities in the U.S. and the regions where we market our contract drilling services, whether resulting from changes in oil and gas prices or otherwise, could materially and adversely affect our business.
	In this regard, oil prices declined significantly during the second half of 2014 and have continued to decline in 2015. The closing price of oil was as high as $106.06 per barrel during the third quarter of 2014, as low as $44.08 per barrel in late January 2015 and around $49.84 per barrel during the last week in February 2015 (WTI spot price as reported by the United States Energy Information Administration). As a result of the decline in oil prices, our industry is now experiencing a severe downturn. Market conditions remain very dynamic and are changing quickly. Although the magnitude as well as the duration of this downturn are not yet known, we believe that 2015 will be a very challenging year for our industry.
	We believe the vast majority of exploration and production companies, including our customers, have significantly reduced their 2015 capital spending plans. The initial impact of these spending reductions is evidenced by the published rig counts, which have declined more than 25% since their recent peak in October 2014, and we believe the rig count in the United States will significantly decline further in 2015.
	As a result of this deterioration in market conditions, our customers are principally focused on their most economic wells and on maintaining their most cost efficient operations that deliver the overall lowest cost of producing their wells. As a result, operators are focusing more of their capital spending on horizontal drilling programs on multi-well pads compared to vertical drilling and are more focused on utilizing drilling equipment and techniques that optimize costs and efficiency. Thus, we believe this rapid market deterioration has significantly accelerated the pace of the ongoing land rig replacement cycle and continued shift to horizontal drilling from multi-well pads.
	Although we believe that the current market downturn is rapidly increasing the focus of our customers towards the use of premium drilling rigs such as our ShaleDriller™, and that premium operations such as ours will be less affected by the downturn relative to operations conducted by legacy fleets, the rapid pace and level of the market decline has negatively impacted pricing, utilization and contract tenors for premium rigs, including our ShaleDriller™ rig. During 2014, we have operated our premium drilling fleet with 99.7% contractual utilization, but we do not expect to maintain this level of utilization while this current market downturn continues. Since December 31, 2014, one of our non-walking rigs has become idle and we are evaluating whether to continue marketing this rig or to upgrade it with our multi-directional walking system. We also have four other drilling rigs operating under contracts with terms expiring during the first half of 2015. We expect to market these rigs at substantially lower dayrates than their expiring contracts and at lower contractual utilization rates than where we historically have operated, and there can be no assurance that these rigs will remain operating at profitable levels.
	Damage Sustained on Rig 102
	On March 9, 2014, one of our non-walking drilling rigs suspended drilling operations due to damage to the rig’s mast and other operating equipment. We believe the cost to repair and replace this equipment is covered by insurance, subject to
	a $250,000 deductible. While under repair, we upgraded this rig by adding a substructure and other equipment that includes a multi-directional walking system. The cost of the upgrades were not covered by insurance. The repairs and upgrades were completed in October 2014 when the upgraded rig recommenced operations. We recorded an asset impairment charge of $4.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2014, representing a preliminary estimate of the damage sustained to the rig. During the three months ended June 30, 2014, we recorded approximately $2.3 million in insurance recoveries related to repairing damage to the rig ($2.0 million) as well as the recovery of certain out-of-pocket expenses ($0.3 million), for which we had received a partial proof of loss from the insurance company. As of September 30, 2014, all of the $2.3 million had been collected. In the fourth quarter of 2014, we recorded an additional $1.6 million in insurance recoveries related to repairing damage to the rig ($1.0 million) as well as the recovery of certain out-of-pocket expenses ($0.6 million), for which we had received a second partial proof of loss from the insurance company. We expect to record additional insurance recoveries estimated at approximately $1.3 million in the first quarter of 2015 when the final proof of loss is obtained.
	Stock Split
	On July 14, 2014, our board of directors approved a resolution to effect a 1.57-for-1 stock split of our common stock in the form of a stock dividend. The dividend was distributed on July 24, 2014 to holders of record as of July 21, 2014. The earnings per share information and all common stock information in these financial statements have been retroactively restated for all periods presented to reflect this stock split.
	Initial Public Offering
	On August 7, 2014, our registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-196914) (the Form S-1) was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission for our initial public offering pursuant to which we sold an aggregate of 11,500,000 shares of our common stock at a price to the public of $11.00 per share, which included 1,500,000 shares of our common stock sold pursuant to the exercise by the underwriters in full of their Over-Allotment Option. We completed our initial public offering of 10,000,000 shares of our common stock on August 13, 2014 and subsequently closed the issuance and sale of the additional 1,500,000 shares of our common stock pursuant to the Over-Allotment Option on August 29, 2014. Our common stock trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "ICD." Net proceeds from the offering were $116.5 million after deducting $7.6 million of underwriting discounts and commissions, as well as legal, accounting, printing and other expenses directly associated with the offering totaling $2.4 million. All of the outstanding borrowings on our revolving credit facility were repaid immediately following the offering.
	Contribution Transactions
	On March 2, 2012, certain contribution transactions were completed pursuant to an asset contribution and share subscription agreement (the “Contribution Agreement”) that involved the Company acquiring certain assets and liabilities of Global Energy Services Operating, LLC (“GES”), and Independence Contract Drilling LLC (“RigAssetCo”). Simultaneously with the closing of a private placement of the Company’s common stock, (the “Private Placement”) (i) GES contributed all of its rig manufacturing and related field service assets to us in exchange for $20.0 million of our common stock, the issuance of a warrant to purchase 2.2 million shares of our common stock (the “GES Warrant”) and the assumption by us of $2.1 million of long-term indebtedness; and (ii) RigAssetCo contributed substantially all of its assets to us in exchange for $29.98 million, payable in shares of our common stock (collectively, the “Contribution Transaction”). The assets contributed by RigAssetCo included (i) approximately $28.6 million of cash, reduced by cash payments made for management compensation, deposits on the manufacture of two drilling rigs and related equipment and (ii) two day rate drilling contracts. The common stock issued pursuant to the terms of the Contribution Agreement, as well as the exercise price under the GES Warrant, were determined using the same price as the stock issued in the “Private Placement.” In conjunction with the completion of the Contribution Transaction, GES was determined to be the predecessor for accounting purposes.
	The transactions contemplated by the Contribution Agreement were structured with the intent that they qualify as a single tax-free contribution under Section 351 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. As a result, we did not receive a “step up” in taxable basis of the assets being transferred to us, but rather the historical tax basis of the assets contributed by GES and RigAssetCo were carried forward.
	A summary of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the GES transaction is set forth below:
	Purchase price
	Common stock issued (1,570,000 shares at approximately $12.74 per share)	$	20,000
	GES warrant	7,879
	Total purchase price	$	27,879
	Purchase price allocation
	Cash	$	7,893
	Accounts receivable	1,426
	Vendor deposits	2,737
	Land, buildings and equipment	3,773
	Construction in progress	6,374
	Intangibles
	Rig manufacturing intellectual property	27,376
	Goodwill	10,318
	Total assets acquired	59,897
	Current liabilities	19,252
	Debt	2,125
	Deferred taxes	10,641
	Total liabilities assumed	32,018
	Allocated purchase price	$	27,879
	The purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair value on the transaction date. The allocation of fair value was based on third party appraisals and management’s estimates. The fair value of the GES warrant was estimated based upon the share price on the valuation date, expected volatility, risk-free interest rate and management’s assumptions regarding the likelihood of a future repricing of these warrants pursuant to the adjustment provision. The fair value calculation for the GES warrant included the following assumptions:
	Risk-free interest rate	0.64	%
	Expected volatility	40	%
	Dividend yield	—
	Expected term	3.0 years
	Risk-Free Interest Rate
	The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury securities with maturities that are the same as the expected term of the option.
	Expected Volatility Rate
	Expected volatilities are based on an analysis of volatilities for publicly traded companies engaged in the contract drilling business.
	Expected Term
	The expected term of the warrant represents the three year contractual term. The rig manufacturing intellectual property acquired in the GES transaction includes all rig designs, drawings, specifications and rig operation software and programming necessary for the Company to manufacture its various ShaleDriller™ rigs. The rig manufacturing intellectual property was valued using an avoided cost methodology that assumed $2.5 million in cost savings for each rig constructed as compared to buying rigs constructed by third parties. This savings is then discounted over our probability adjusted, planned rig construction schedule. This intellectual property was being amortized over a ten year period.
	A term loan in the amount of $2.1 million was assumed in connection with the GES transaction and fully repaid on March 2, 2012.
	A summary of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the RigAssetCo transaction is set forth below:
	Purchase price
	Common stock issued (2,353,038 shares at approximately $12.74 per share)	$	29,975
	Purchase price allocation
	Cash	9,236
	Deposits	19,131
	Intangibles
	Third party drilling contracts	1,511
	Goodwill	689
	Total assets acquired	30,567
	Deferred taxes	592
	Total liabilities assumed	592
	Allocated purchase price	$	29,975
	The purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair value on the transaction date. The allocation of fair value was based on third party appraisals and management’s estimates.
Third party drilling contracts represent an intangible asset that has a separate value apart from both the purchased tangible assets and other assets acquired in the RigAssetCo transaction. Two third party drilling contracts were acquired from RigAssetCo in the transaction, each with a term of six months with an optional six month renewal. The drilling contracts were valued using a discounted cash flow methodology and were amortized using the straight-line method over six months. The drilling contract intangible assets were fully amortized as of December 31, 2012.
Based on the purchase price allocations of the GES transaction and the RigAssetCo transaction it was determined that the fair values of the net assets acquired were less than the purchase price, resulting in the recording of $11.0 million in goodwill in total. This goodwill, all of which is nondeductible for tax purposes, was largely the result of efficiencies associated with constructing rigs for internal use.
Private Placement
As a condition of the closing of the Contribution Transaction, we completed the Private Placement of our common stock, pursuant to Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Pursuant to the Private Placement, a total of 8,264,323 shares of our common stock were issued at an offering price of $12.74 per share.
The following table summarizes the net proceeds we received in the Private Placement, after the deduction of applicable costs and expenses:
	(in thousands)
Common stock (8,264,323 shares at approximately $12.74 per share)	$	105,278
Less: Initial purchasers discount	(5,419		)
Other expenses	(1,501		)
Net proceeds	$	98,358
Other expenses consisted of legal, accounting, printing and other closing costs directly associated with the Private Placement.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
	Basis of Presentation
	These audited financial statements include all the accounts of ICD, and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). As we had no items of other comprehensive income in any period presented, no other comprehensive income or comprehensive income is presented.
	Cash and Cash Equivalents
	We consider short term, highly liquid investments that have an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
	Accounts Receivable
	Accounts receivable is comprised primarily of amounts due from our customers for contract drilling services. Accounts receivable are reduced to reflect estimated realizable values by an allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical collection experience and specific review of individual accounts. Receivables are written off when they are deemed to be uncollectible. The allowance for doubtful accounts totaled $0.1 million and $0.1 million as of December 31, 2014 and December 2013, respectively.
	Inventory
	Inventory is stated at lower of cost or market and consists primarily of replacement parts and supplies held for use in our drilling operations. Cost is determined on an average cost basis.
	Property, Plant and Equipment, Net
	Property, plant and equipment, including renewals and betterments, are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. All property, plant and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the assets. The cost of maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Major overhauls and upgrades are capitalized and depreciated over their remaining useful life.
	Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is recorded based on the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:
		Estimated
		Useful Life
	Buildings	20	-	39 years
	Drilling rigs and related equipment	5	-	20 years
	Machinery, equipment and other	3	-	7 years
	Vehicles	2	-	5 years
	Software	2	-	7 years
	We own substantially all of our rig assembly yard and corporate offices located in Houston, Texas. We lease a number of vehicles and land for equipment and inventory storage. Leases are evaluated at inception or at any subsequent material modification to determine if the lease should be classified as a capital or operating lease. We do not currently have any capital leases.
	We review our assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The recoverability of assets that are to be held and used is measured by comparison of the estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset to the carrying amount of the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, an impairment charge is recorded in the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds their estimated fair value determined using discounted cash flows. Other than the impairment associated with the damage to one of our non-walking rigs (Note 1), no impairments were recorded for the years ended December 31, 2014 or December 31, 2013.
	Construction in progress represents the costs incurred for drilling rigs that remain under construction at the end of the period. This includes third party costs relating to the purchase of rig components as well as labor, material and other identifiable direct and indirect costs associated with the construction of the rig.
	Capitalized Interest
	We capitalize interest expense related to rig construction projects. Interest expense is capitalized during the construction period based on the weighted average interest rate of the related debt. Capitalized interest amounted to $1.0 million, $0.4 million and $0.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
	Goodwill
	Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired in connection with the Contribution Transaction. Goodwill is not amortized, but rather tested and assessed for impairment annually or more frequently if certain events or changes in circumstance indicate the carrying amount may exceed fair value. The annual test for goodwill impairment is performed during the fourth quarter of each year and begins with a qualitative assessment of whether it is “more likely than not” that the fair value of our business is less than its carrying value. If the qualitative analysis indicates that it is “more likely than not” that our business’ fair value is less than its carrying value, the resulting goodwill impairment test would consist of a two-step accounting test. The first step of the goodwill impairment test identifies the potential impairment, resulting if the fair value of a reporting unit (including goodwill) is less than its carrying amount. If during testing, it is determined that the fair value of net assets (including goodwill) exceeds its carrying amount, the goodwill of such net assets are not considered impaired and the second step of the goodwill impairment test is not applicable. However, if the fair value of net assets (including goodwill) is less than its carrying amount, we would then proceed to the second step in the goodwill impairment test. The second step includes hypothetically valuing the net assets as if they had been acquired in a business combination. Then, the implied fair value of the net assets’ goodwill is compared to the carrying value of that goodwill. If the carrying value of net assets’ goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of the goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the excess, not to exceed the carrying value.
	Our analysis considered the discounted cash flow method, market capitalization and the guideline company method. Based on this analysis, we recorded a goodwill impairment of $11.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, which represents the impairment of 100% of the goodwill recorded in the Contribution Transaction (Note 1). This impairment was primarily the result of the significant downturn in industry conditions in late 2014 and the related uncertainty regarding demand for our contract drilling services and new rig construction, as well as the decline in the price of our common stock as of December 31, 2014. No goodwill impairment was recorded in 2013 or 2012.
	Intangible Assets
	Identified intangible assets with determinable lives have historically consisted of drilling contracts and rig manufacturing intellectual property obtained in connection with the Contribution Transaction. Intangibles related to the drilling contracts were amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of six months while the identified intangibles related to the rig manufacturing intellectual property were being amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of ten years.
	The identifiable intangibles are evaluated for impairment at the end of each reporting period if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the intangibles below their carrying amounts.  During the fourth quarter of 2014, as a result of the significant downturn in industry conditions in late 2014 and the related uncertainty regarding demand for our drilling services and new rig construction, we re-evaluated the cost efficiencies to be realized in future rig construction.  As a result of this evaluation, and current economic environment, management reassessed the remaining useful life of our rig manufacturing intellectual property reducing it from 7.2 years, to zero years. As a result of this revised estimate, we recorded additional amortization expense of $19.6 million which has been included in "Goodwill impairment and other charges" in the accompanying statement of operations.
	Financial Instruments and Fair value
	The carrying value of certain of our assets and liabilities, consisting primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable, approximates their fair value due to the short-term nature of such instruments.
	Our financial instruments that are subject to fair value measurements consist of the GES Warrant and long-term debt.
	The GES Warrant, which expired on March 2, 2015, contains a provision that protects the holder from a decline in the issue price of our common stock, or a “down-round” provision. Down-round provisions reduce the exercise or conversion price of a warrant or convertible instrument if a company either issues equity shares for a price that is lower than the exercise or conversion price of those instruments or issues new warrants or convertible instruments that have a lower exercise or conversion price. As a result of this provision, we account for this warrant as a liability. Following our initial public offering on August 13, 2014 and the full exercise of the Over-Allotment Option on August 29, 2014, the exercise price of the GES Warrant was reduced from $12.74 per share to $11.37 per share.
	In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 815 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” as amended, this warrant derivative liability is marked-to-market each reporting period, with a corresponding non-cash gain or loss charged to the current period. Fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, there exists a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
	Level 1	Unadjusted quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market;
	Level 2	Quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market that have been adjusted for items such as effects of restrictions for transferability and those that are not quoted but are observable through corroboration with observable market data, including quoted market prices for similar assets; and
	Level 3	Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability only used when there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date
	This hierarchy requires us to use observable market data, when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value.
	The warrant liability was recorded at fair value using Level 3 inputs as of December 31, 2013. Significant Level 3 inputs used to calculate the fair value of the warrant include the estimated share price on the valuation date, expected volatility, risk-free interest rate and management’s assumptions regarding the likelihood of a future repricing of these warrants pursuant to the adjustment provision. Due to the initial public offering completed in August 2014, the warrant liability was recorded at fair value using Level 1 inputs (our share price) for the year ended December 31, 2014.
	Based on the price of our stock on December 31, 2014 and the short period of time until the expiration of the GES Warrant on March 2, 2015, the warrant had no value as of December 31, 2014. The fair value of the GES warrant as of December 31, 2013 was $3.2 million. We recorded non-cash gains on warrant derivative associated with the changes in fair value of $3.2 million, $1.0 million and $3.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2014, December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
	The following provides a reconciliation of financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 3 inputs:
		December 31,
		2014			2013			2012
		(in thousands)
	Beginning balance	$	3,189		$	4,224		$	—
	Issuance of GES warrant	—			—			7,879
	Gain on warrant derivative	(3,189		)	(1,035		)	(3,655		)
	Ending balance	$	—		$	3,189		$	4,224
	The fair value of our long-term debt is determined by Level 3 measurements based on quoted market prices and terms for similar instruments, where available, or on the amount of future cash flows associated with the debt, discounted using our current borrowing rate for comparable debt instruments. The estimated fair value of our long-term debt totaled $22.9 million and $18.6 million as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, compared to a carrying amount of $22.5 million and $19.8 million as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
	Fair value measurements were applied with respect to our non-financial assets and liabilities measured on a nonrecurring basis, which would consist of measurements primarily related to goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets, and assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Contribution Transaction (Note 1). There were no transfers between levels of the hierarchy for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.
	Revenue and Cost Recognition
	Our revenues are principally derived from contract drilling services, as well as product sales, and field services provided to third parties, and transitional services provided to GES pursuant to a transitional services agreement (the “Transition Services Agreement”) entered into in connection with the Contribution Agreement (Note 1).
	We record contract drilling revenue for daywork contracts daily as work progresses, assuming collectability is assured. Daywork drilling contracts provide that revenue is earned daily based on a specified rate per day and the term of the contract which can be for a specific period of time or a specified number of wells. We generally receive lump-sum payments for the mobilization of rigs and other drilling equipment at the commencement of a new drilling contract. Revenue and costs associated with the mobilization are deferred and recognized ratably over the term of the related drilling contract once the rig spuds. Costs incurred to relocate rigs and other equipment to an area in which a contract has not been secured are expensed as incurred.
	Stock-Based Compensation
	We record compensation expense over the applicable vesting period for all stock-based compensation based on the grant date fair value of the award. The expense is included in selling, general and administrative expense in our statement of operations or capitalized in connection with rig construction activity.
	Income Taxes
	We use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, we record deferred income taxes based upon differences between the financial reporting basis and tax basis of assets and liabilities, and use enacted tax rates and laws that we expect will be in effect when we realize those assets or settle those liabilities. We review deferred tax assets for a valuation allowance based upon management’s estimates of whether it is more likely than not that a portion of the deferred tax asset will be fully realized in a future period.
	We recognize the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant taxing authority would more-likely-than-not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority.
	Our policy is to include interest and penalties related to the unrecognized tax benefits within the income tax expense (benefit) line item in our statement of operations.
	Use of Estimates
	The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses recognized during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
	Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
	In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an accounting standards update to provide guidance on the reporting of discontinued operations and the disclosures related to disposals of components of an entity. Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods that begin after December 15, 2014. Early application is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact this will have on our consolidated financial statements. At this time, we do not believe it will materially impact our financial statements.
In May 2014, the FASB issued an accounting standards update to provide guidance on the recognition of revenue from customers. Under this guidance, an entity will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects what it expects in exchange for the goods or services. This guidance also requires more detailed disclosures to enable users of the financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty, if any, of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We are currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.
In June 2014, the FASB issued an accounting standards update to provide guidance on the accounting for share-based payments when the terms of an award provide that a performance target could be achieved after the requisite service period. The guidance requires that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period is treated as a performance condition. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. We are currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.
In August 2014, the FASB issued guidance requiring management to perform interim and annual assessments of an entity’s ability to continue as a going-concern within one year of the date the financial statements are issued. The standard also provides guidance on determining when and how to disclose going-concern uncertainties in the financial statements. An entity must provide certain disclosures if there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going-concern. Management’s evaluation should be based on relevant conditions and events that are known and reasonably knowable at the date that the financial statements are issued. The new guidance applies to all entities and is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods thereafter, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have an impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	Cash and Cash Equivalents
	We consider short term, highly liquid investments that have an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
	Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
	The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on past experience and other factors which, in management’s judgment, deserve current recognition in estimating bad debts. Such factors include growth and composition of accounts receivable, the relationship of the allowance for doubtful accounts to accounts receivable and current economic conditions. The determination of the collectability of amounts due from customer accounts requires GES to make significant judgments. Allowances for doubtful accounts are determined based on a continuous process of assessing GES’s portfolio on an individual customer and on an overall basis. This process consists of a review of historical collection experience, current aging status of the customer accounts, and financial condition of GES’s customers. Based on a review of these factors, GES will establish or adjust allowances for specific customers and the accounts receivable portfolio as a whole. At March 1, 2012 the allowance for doubtful accounts is $567.
	Below is a rollforward of the allowance for doubtful accounts for the period from January 1, 2012 through March 1, 2012:
	Beginning balance	$	224
	Adjustment to bad debt provision	343
	Accounts written off	—
	Ending balance	$	567
	Revenue and Cost Recognition
	GES’s products and services are sold based upon purchase orders or contracts with the customer that include fixed or determinable prices and that do not generally include right of return or other similar provisions or other significant post-delivery obligations.
	Except for certain long-term construction contract sales described below, GES records revenue from the sale of equipment, components and parts sold to the customers when title and risk of loss has passed to the customer, collectability is reasonably assured, pricing is fixed and the products have been shipped or delivered to customers, as applicable. GES records revenue from services performed when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, pricing is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. GES’s policy on field service jobs is to require signoff from the customer regarding amounts billed before revenue is recognized. The agreement by the customer of the preliminary invoice indicates evidence that an arrangement exists. Customer advances or deposits are deferred and recognized as revenue as GES completes its performance obligations or final completion of the product related to the sale. Included in operating costs is $77 of depreciation expense for equipment directly related to manufacturing for the period from January 1, 2012 through March 1, 2012.
	Revenue Recognition under Long-term Construction Contracts
	GES recognizes revenues on construction of rigs using the percentage-of-completion method, with the estimated earnings generally being accrued on the percentage that costs-to-date bear to total estimated costs. Projected losses, if any, are provided for in their entirety without reference to the percentage of completion. Because of the inherent uncertainties in estimating costs, it is possible that GES’s estimates of costs and revenues may be revised prior to contract completion. Revisions in costs and estimated earnings precipitated by changing conditions and circumstances during the term of the contracts are reflected in the accounting period in which the need for such revisions becomes known.
	Contract costs include all direct material, labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance. General and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. The current liability “billings in excess of related costs and estimated earnings” represents billings in excess of revenue recognized.
	Inventory
	Inventory is stated at lower of cost or market. Inventory consists primarily of purchased components for use in the manufacturing of drilling rigs. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. Appropriate consideration is given to obsolescence, excess quantities and other factors in evaluating net realizable value. GES determines reserves for inventory based on historical usage of inventory, age of inventory on hand, assumptions about future demand and market conditions, and estimates about potential alternative uses.
	Property, Plant and Equipment
	Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Additions of new equipment and major renewals and replacements of existing equipment are capitalized. Repairs and minor replacements are charged to operations as incurred. Cost and accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the accounts when assets are sold or retired, and the resulting gains or losses are included in operations.
	Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is provided using the straight-line method applied to the expected useful lives of the assets as follows:
		Estimated
		useful life
	Buildings	20	-	39 years
	Machinery and equipment	3	-	15 years
	Office furniture, fixtures and fittings	3	-	7 years
	Vehicles	2	-	5 years
	Software			5 years
	Intangible Assets, including Goodwill
	Identified intangible assets with determinable lives consist primarily of trade names and customer relationships acquired in the LERS acquisition. Identified intangibles are being amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of 10 years. The identifiable intangibles are evaluated for impairment if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the intangibles below its carrying amount. GES evaluated the identifiable intangibles due to broad economic indicators and no impairment was recorded.
	GES evaluates the carrying value of goodwill on an annual basis and between annual evaluations if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying amount. Such circumstances could include, but are not limited to (1) a significant adverse change in legal factors or in business climate, (2) unanticipated competition, or (3) an adverse action or assessment by a regulator. When evaluating whether goodwill is impaired, GES compares the fair value of the reporting unit to which the goodwill is assigned to the reporting unit’s carrying amount, including goodwill. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, then the amount of the impairment loss must be measured. The impairment loss would be calculated by comparing the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill to its carrying amount. In calculating the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill, the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the other assets and liabilities of that unit based on their fair values. The excess of the fair value of a reporting unit over the amount assigned to its other assets and liabilities is the implied fair value of goodwill. An impairment loss would be recognized when the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. No impairment loss was recognized for the period from January 1, 2012 through March 1, 2012.
	Use of Estimates
	Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements. Those estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in the combined financial statements and related disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
	Income Taxes
	GES uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, it records deferred income taxes based on temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities and uses enacted tax rates and laws that GES expects will be in effect when it recovers those assets or settles those liabilities, as the case may be, to measure those taxes. GES reviews deferred tax assets for a valuation allowance based upon whether it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will be fully realized.
	GES recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority. During the period ended March 1, 2012, GES did not identify any uncertain tax positions requiring recognition.
	GES’s policy is to include interest and penalties related to the unrecognized tax benefits within the income tax expense (benefit) line item in the combined financial statements.
	Financial Instruments
	GES’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, billings in excess of related costs and estimated earnings, and debt. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts, accounts payable, billings in excess of related costs and estimated earnings, and debt approximate fair value as these items are short term in nature. GES has no financial instruments that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
	Advertising Costs
	GES expenses advertising costs as incurred. For the period from January 1, 2012 through March 1, 2012 advertising expense is $1.
	Warranty Expense
	GES offers a limited warranty on certain products and provides for estimated warranty costs at the time of sale. Generally, the warranty period is one year from the date of delivery. This warranty reserve is reviewed annually and is based on historical warranty claims. The warranty reserve at March 1, 2012 is $143.
	Recent Accounting Pronouncements Issued
	In September 2011, the FASB issued new guidance relative to the test for goodwill impairment. The new guidance permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011 with early adoption permitted. GES is in the process of evaluating the impact of the new guidance.
	In December 2010, the FASB issued new guidance relative to the test for goodwill impairment. The new guidance pertains to entities that have recognized goodwill and have one or more reporting units whose carrying amount for purposes of performing Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test is zero or negative. If it is more likely than not that goodwill impairment exists, the entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. This requires consideration of any adverse qualitative factors indicating that impairment may exist. The new guidance is effective for nonpublic entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011 with early adoption permitted. GES has considered this guidance in its assessment of reported goodwill and other intangible assets.
	Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB or other authoritative standards groups with future effective dates are either not applicable or are not expected to be significant to the financial statements of GES.

	The identifiable intangibles are evaluated for impairment at the end of each reporting period if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the intangibles below their carrying amounts. During the fourth quarter of 2014, as a result of the significant downturn in industry conditions in late 2014 and the related uncertainty regarding demand for our drilling services and new rig construction, we re-evaluated the cost efficiencies to be realized in future rig construction.  As a result of this evaluation, and current economic environment, management reassessed the remaining useful life of our rig manufacturing intellectual property reducing it from 7.2 years, to zero years. As a result of this revised estimate, we recorded additional amortization expense of $19.6 million which has been included in "Goodwill impairment and other charges" in the accompanying statement of operations.
	Amortization expense recorded in the caption depreciation and amortization in our statement of operations was was $2.7 million, $2.7 million and $3.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, December 31, 2013, and December 31, 2012, respectively.

Long-Term Debt	Long-term Debt
	On May 10, 2013, we entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Facility”) with a syndicate of financial institutions led by CIT Finance, LLC, that provided for a committed $60.0 million revolving credit facility and an additional uncommitted$20.0 million accordion feature that allowed for future increases in the facility.
	On February 21, 2014 we amended our Credit Facility in order to increase the aggregate commitments from $60.0 million to $125.0 million. The final $25.0 million of commitments under the amended Credit Facility was subject to us obtaining additional equity or indebtedness, subordinated to the Credit Facility, of at least $40.0 million (“Junior Event”). The Credit Facility, as amended, also provided for an additional uncommitted $25.0 million accordion feature that allows for future increases in the facility.
	On May 12, 2014, we amended our Credit Facility again, to expand the commitments not subject to the Junior Event from $100.0 million to $110.0 million. The amendment also adjusted the minimum EBITDA covenants contained in the Credit Facility to reflect the removal of Rig 102 from service during the pendency of its upgrade. As a result of our initial public offering completed on August 13, 2014, the final $25.0 million of our $125.0 million Credit Facility became available to us.
	On November 5, 2014, we amended and restated our Credit Facility again to increase the commitments under the facility from $125.0 million to $155.0 million. In addition, the amendment provides for an additional uncommitted $25.0 million accordion feature that allows for future increases in borrowing availability.
	Borrowings under the Credit Facility are subject to a borrowing base formula that allows for borrowings of up to 85% of eligible trade accounts receivable not more than 90 days outstanding, plus up to 75% of the appraised forced liquidation value of our eligible, completed and owned drilling rigs. Beginning on November 5, 2015, the 75% advance rate on our eligible completed and owned drilling rigs decreases by 1.25% per quarter. The Credit Facility matures on November 5, 2018.
	At our election, interest under the Credit Facility is determined by reference at our option to either (i) the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), plus 4.5% or (ii) a “base rate” equal to the higher of the prime rate published by JP Morgan Chase Bank, three-month LIBOR plus 1% or the federal funds effective rate plus 0.05%, plus in each case, 3.5%. We also pay, on a quarterly basis, a commitment fee of 0.50% per annum on the unused portion of the Credit Facility commitment. The obligations under the Credit Facility are secured by all our assets and is unconditionally guaranteed by all of our future direct and indirect subsidiaries.
	The Credit Facility contains various financial and operating covenants including a leverage covenant, springing fixed charge coverage ratio and rig utilization ratio. Additionally, there are restrictive covenants that limit our ability to, among other things: incur or guarantee additional indebtedness or issue disqualified capital stock; transfer or sell assets; pay dividends or distributions; redeem subordinated indebtedness; make certain types of investments or make other restricted payments; create or incur liens; consummate a merger; consolidation or sale of all or substantially all assets; and engage in business other than a business that is the same or similar to the current business and reasonably related businesses. The Credit Facility does, however, permit us to incur up to $20.0 million of additional indebtedness for the purchase of additional rigs or rig equipment.
	Remaining availability under the Credit Facility was $92.3 million as calculated as of December 31, 2014, based on the borrowing base formula. We are currently in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Facility and expect to remain in compliance throughout 2015.

	At December 31, 2014, we had a total net operating loss (NOL) carryforward of $90.7 million of federal NOL carryforwards, which begin expiring in 2032.
	Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code (“Section 382”) imposes limitations on a corporation’s ability to utilize its NOLs if it experiences an ownership change. In general terms, an ownership change may result from transactions increasing the ownership percentage of certain shareholders in the stock of the corporation by more than 50 percentage points over a three year period. In the event of an ownership change, utilization of the NOLs would be subject to an annual limitation under Section 382. Management will continue to monitor the potential impact of Section 382 with respect to its NOL carryforward.
	Accounting for uncertainty in income taxes prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement methodology for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. As of December 31, 2014, we had no unrecognized tax benefits. We file income tax returns in the U.S. and in various state jurisdictions. With few exceptions, we are subject to U.S. federal, state and local income tax examinations by tax authorities for tax periods 2011 and forward. Our federal and state tax returns for 2011 and subsequent years remain subject to examination by tax authorities. Although we cannot predict the outcome of future tax examinations, we do not anticipate that the ultimate resolution of these examinations will have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
	In assessing the realizability of the deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of the deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future income in periods in which the deferred tax assets can be utilized. During 2014, we determined that the deferred tax assets did not meet the more likely than not threshold of being utilized and thus recorded a valuation allowance in the amount of $4.4 million.
	Estimated interest and penalties related to potential underpayment on any unrecognized tax benefits are classified as a component of tax expense in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. We have not recorded any interest or penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits.

Stock-Based Compensation	Stock-Based Compensation
	In March 2012, we adopted the 2012 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2012 Plan”) providing for common stock-based awards to employees and to non-employee Directors. The 2012 plan was subsequently amended in August of 2014. The 2012 Plan, as amended, permits the granting of various types of awards, including stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards, and up to 3,454,000 shares were authorized for issuance. Restricted stock and restricted stock units may be granted for no consideration other than prior and future services. The purchase price per share for stock options may not be less than the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant. Stock options expire ten years after the grant date. We have the right to satisfy option exercises from treasury shares and from authorized but unissued shares. As of December 31, 2014, approximately 1,124,044 shares were available for future awards.
	A summary of compensation cost recognized for stock-based payment arrangements is as follows:
		Year Ended December 31,
	(in thousands)	2014			2013		2012
	Compensation cost recognized:
	Stock options	$	1,133		$	1,077	$	1,549
	Restricted stock and restricted stock units	2,666			1,092		688
	Total stock-based compensation	$	3,799		$	2,169	$	2,237
	Approximately $0.7 million, $0.4 million and $0.4 million in stock-based compensation was capitalized in connection with rig construction activity during the year ended December 31, 2014, December 31, 2013 and December 2012, respectively.
	Stock Options
	Certain options were granted on March 2, 2012 and began vesting on their date of grant, with 25% of such options vesting on the grant date, and 25% of such options vesting on each anniversary thereafter until fully vested on March 2, 2015. A subsequent grant of 15,700 options was made in August 2012, one third of which vest on each anniversary of the grant date over three years. In December 2012, we granted an additional 229,613 stock options that vest over five years in three equal tranches commencing on the third year anniversary date and each year thereafter. No options were exercised during the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 or 2012. It is our policy that in the future any shares issued upon option exercise will be issued initially from any available treasury shares or otherwise as newly issued shares.
	In February 2013, we granted an additional 119,320 stock options that vest over four years. No stock options were granted during the year ended December 31, 2014.
	We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock options granted to employees and non-employee directors. The fair value of the options is amortized to compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the stock awards, which are generally the vesting periods. The fair value calculations for options granted are based on the following weighted-average assumptions:
		Year Ended December 31,
		2013		2012
	Risk-free interest rate	0.83	%	1.05	%
	Expected volatility	40	%	40	%
	Dividend yield	—		—
	Expected term	5.0 years		5.8 years
	Risk-Free Interest Rate
	The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury securities with maturities that are the same as the expected term of the option.
	Expected Volatility Rate
	As we did not have a trading history in 2013 or 2012, we were required to estimate the potential volatility of our common stock price. The volatility calculation was based on the average volatility of a representative sample of four companies (the “Sample Companies”) that management believes to be engaged in the land contract drilling business. We referred to the average volatility of the Sample Companies because management believed that the average volatility of such companies was a reasonable benchmark to use in estimating the expected volatility of our common stock.
	Expected Dividend Yield
	We have no plans to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.
	Expected Term
	The expected term of the options granted represents the period of time that they are expected to be outstanding.
	Based on these calculations, the weighted-average fair value per option granted to acquire a share of common stock was $4.08 and $4.66 for options granted during the year ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
	The following summary reflects the stock option activity and related information for the year ended December 31, 2014:

	The number of options exercisable at December 31, 2014 was 602,880 with a weighted average remaining contractual life of 7.3 years and a weighted-average exercise price of $12.74 per share.
	As of December 31, 2014, the unrecognized compensation cost related to outstanding stock options was $0.7 million. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.8 years. The fair value of options that vested during the year ended December 31, 2014, December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 was $1.2 million, $0.9 million and $0.8 million, respectively.
	Restricted Stock
	Restricted stock awards consist of grants of our common stock that vest ratably over three to four years. We recognize compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. The fair value of restricted stock awards is determined based on the estimated fair market value of our shares on the grant date. As of December 31, 2014, there was $7.5 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock awards. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.3 years.
	A summary of the status of our restricted stock awards and of changes in restricted stock outstanding for the year ended December 31, 2014 is as follows:
		Shares		Weighted
				Average
				Grant Date
				Fair Value
				Per Share
	Outstanding at January 1, 2014	147,451		$	12.48

Forfeited/expired	—		—
Outstanding at December 31, 2014	778,765		$	10.85
Restricted Stock Units
We have granted restricted stock units (RSUs) to key employees under the 2012 Plan. We have granted performance-based and market-based RSUs, where each unit represents the right to receive, at the end of a vesting period, up to two shares of ICD common stock with no exercise price. Vesting of the market-based RSUs is based on our three year total shareholder return (TSR) as measured against a three year TSR of a defined peer group and vesting of the performance-based RSUs is based on our cumulative EBITDA (CEBITDA), as defined in the restricted stock unit agreement, over a three year period. We used a Monte Carlo simulation model to value the TSR market-based RSUs. The fair value of the CEBITDA performance-based RSUs is based on the market price of our common stock on the date of grant. During the restriction period, the RSUs may not be transferred or encumbered, and the recipient does not receive dividend equivalents or have voting rights until the units vest. As of December 31, 2014, there was $4.4 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested RSUs. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.4 years.
The assumptions used to value our TSR market-based RSUs granted during the year ended December 31, 2014 were a a risk-free interest rate of 0.08%, an expected volatility of 44.1% and an expected dividend yield of 0.0%. Based on the Monte Carlo simulation, these 171,577 RSUs were valued at $16.74.
A summary of the status of our RSUs as of December 31, 2014, and of changes in RSUs outstanding during the year ended December 31, 2014, is as follows:

	As of December 31, 2014, we had a total of 24,629,333 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value, issued and outstanding including 778,765 shares of restricted stock. We also had 85,011 shares held as treasury stock. Total authorized common stock is 100,000,000 shares.
	Basic earnings (loss) per common share (“EPS”) are computed by dividing income, (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that would occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment and Geographic Information	Segment and Geographical Information
	We report one segment because all of our drilling operations are all located in the United States and have similar economic characteristics. We build rigs and engage in land contract drilling for oil and natural gas in the United States. Corporate management administers all properties as a whole rather than as discrete operating segments. Operational data is tracked by rig; however, financial performance is measured as a single enterprise and not on a rig-by-rig basis. Allocation of capital resources is employed on a project-by-project basis across our entire asset base to maximize profitability without regard to individual areas.

	We derive all our revenues from drilling services contracts with companies in the oil and natural gas exploration and production industry, a historically cyclical industry with levels of activity that are significantly affected by the levels and volatility in oil and gas prices. We have a number of customers that account for 10% or more of our revenues. For 2014, these customers include Laredo Petroleum, Inc. (22%), Apache Corporation (21%), COG Operating, LLC, a subsidiary of Concho Resources, Inc. (21%) and BOPCO, L.P. (20%). For 2013, these customers include Apache Corporation (30%), BOPCO, LP (16%), Newfield Exploration Company (11%), W&T Offshore, Inc. (10%) and Anadarko Petroleum Corporation (10%). For 2012, these customers include Eagle Rock Mid-Continent Operating, LLC (30%) and GLB Exploration, Inc. (27%). As of December 31, 2014, Apache Corporation (22%), COG Operating, LLC, a subsidiary of Concho Resources, Inc. (20%), BOPCO, L.P. (18%), Laredo Petroleum, Inc. (16%) and Pioneer Natural Resources USA, Inc. (11%) accounted for 10% or more of our accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2013, Apache Corporation (27%), Laredo Petroleum, Inc. (22%), BOPCO, LP (17%) and Rosetta Resources Operating L.P. (10%) accounted for 10% or more of our accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2012, Eagle Rock Mid-Continent Operating, LLC (35%), GLB Exploration, Inc. (30%) and Sheridan Production Company (11%) accounted for 10% or more of our accounts receivable. We compete with large national and multi-national companies that have longer operating histories, greater financial, technical and other resources and greater name recognition than ICD. Our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition may be affected by these factors. Additionally, these factors could impact our ability to obtain additional debt and equity capital required to implement the our rig construction and growth strategy, and the cost of that capital.
	We have concentrated credit risk for cash by maintaining deposits in a major bank, which may at times exceed amounts covered by insurance provided by the United States Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). We monitor the financial health of the bank and have not experienced any losses in such accounts and believe we are not exposed to any significant credit risk. As of December 31, 2014, we had approximately $10.4 million in cash and cash equivalents in excess of FDIC limits. Our trade receivables are with a variety of E&P and other oilfield service companies. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers, and we generally do not require collateral. We do occasionally require deposits from customers whose creditworthiness is in question prior to providing services to them.

Nature of Operations [Line Items]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation
	These audited financial statements include all the accounts of ICD, and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). As we had no items of other comprehensive income in any period presented, no other comprehensive income or comprehensive income is presented.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	Cash and Cash Equivalents
	We consider short term, highly liquid investments that have an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivables	Accounts Receivable
	Accounts receivable is comprised primarily of amounts due from our customers for contract drilling services. Accounts receivable are reduced to reflect estimated realizable values by an allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical collection experience and specific review of individual accounts. Receivables are written off when they are deemed to be uncollectible. The allowance for doubtful accounts totaled $0.1 million and $0.1 million as of December 31, 2014 and December 2013, respectively.
Inventory	Inventory
	Inventory is stated at lower of cost or market and consists primarily of replacement parts and supplies held for use in our drilling operations. Cost is determined on an average cost basis.
Property, Plant and Equipment, Net	Property, Plant and Equipment, Net
	Property, plant and equipment, including renewals and betterments, are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. All property, plant and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the assets. The cost of maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Major overhauls and upgrades are capitalized and depreciated over their remaining useful life.
	Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is recorded based on the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:
		Estimated
		Useful Life
	Buildings	20	-	39 years
	Drilling rigs and related equipment	5	-	20 years
	Machinery, equipment and other	3	-	7 years
	Vehicles	2	-	5 years
	Software	2	-	7 years
	We own substantially all of our rig assembly yard and corporate offices located in Houston, Texas. We lease a number of vehicles and land for equipment and inventory storage. Leases are evaluated at inception or at any subsequent material modification to determine if the lease should be classified as a capital or operating lease. We do not currently have any capital leases.
	We review our assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The recoverability of assets that are to be held and used is measured by comparison of the estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset to the carrying amount of the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, an impairment charge is recorded in the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds their estimated fair value determined using discounted cash flows. Other than the impairment associated with the damage to one of our non-walking rigs (Note 1), no impairments were recorded for the years ended December 31, 2014 or December 31, 2013.
	Construction in progress represents the costs incurred for drilling rigs that remain under construction at the end of the period. This includes third party costs relating to the purchase of rig components as well as labor, material and other identifiable direct and indirect costs associated with the construction of the rig.
Property, Plant and Equipment, Impairment	We review our assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The recoverability of assets that are to be held and used is measured by comparison of the estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset to the carrying amount of the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, an impairment charge is recorded in the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds their estimated fair value determined using discounted cash flows.
Capitalized interest	Capitalized Interest
	We capitalize interest expense related to rig construction projects. Interest expense is capitalized during the construction period based on the weighted average interest rate of the related debt. Capitalized interest amounted to $1.0 million, $0.4 million and $0.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
Goodwill	Goodwill
	Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired in connection with the Contribution Transaction. Goodwill is not amortized, but rather tested and assessed for impairment annually or more frequently if certain events or changes in circumstance indicate the carrying amount may exceed fair value. The annual test for goodwill impairment is performed during the fourth quarter of each year and begins with a qualitative assessment of whether it is “more likely than not” that the fair value of our business is less than its carrying value. If the qualitative analysis indicates that it is “more likely than not” that our business’ fair value is less than its carrying value, the resulting goodwill impairment test would consist of a two-step accounting test. The first step of the goodwill impairment test identifies the potential impairment, resulting if the fair value of a reporting unit (including goodwill) is less than its carrying amount. If during testing, it is determined that the fair value of net assets (including goodwill) exceeds its carrying amount, the goodwill of such net assets are not considered impaired and the second step of the goodwill impairment test is not applicable. However, if the fair value of net assets (including goodwill) is less than its carrying amount, we would then proceed to the second step in the goodwill impairment test. The second step includes hypothetically valuing the net assets as if they had been acquired in a business combination. Then, the implied fair value of the net assets’ goodwill is compared to the carrying value of that goodwill. If the carrying value of net assets’ goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of the goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the excess, not to exceed the carrying value.
	Our analysis considered the discounted cash flow method, market capitalization and the guideline company method. Based on this analysis, we recorded a goodwill impairment of $11.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, which represents the impairment of 100% of the goodwill recorded in the Contribution Transaction (Note 1). This impairment was primarily the result of the significant downturn in industry conditions in late 2014 and the related uncertainty regarding demand for our contract drilling services and new rig construction, as well as the decline in the price of our common stock as of December 31, 2014. No goodwill impairment was recorded in 2013 or 2012.
Intangible Assets	Intangible Assets
	Identified intangible assets with determinable lives have historically consisted of drilling contracts and rig manufacturing intellectual property obtained in connection with the Contribution Transaction. Intangibles related to the drilling contracts were amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of six months while the identified intangibles related to the rig manufacturing intellectual property were being amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of ten years.
	The identifiable intangibles are evaluated for impairment at the end of each reporting period if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the intangibles below their carrying amounts.  During the fourth quarter of 2014, as a result of the significant downturn in industry conditions in late 2014 and the related uncertainty regarding demand for our drilling services and new rig construction, we re-evaluated the cost efficiencies to be realized in future rig construction.  As a result of this evaluation, and current economic environment, management reassessed the remaining useful life of our rig manufacturing intellectual property reducing it from 7.2 years, to zero years. As a result of this revised estimate, we recorded additional amortization expense of $19.6 million which has been included in "Goodwill impairment and other charges" in the accompanying statement of operations.
Financial Instruments and Fair Value	Financial Instruments and Fair value
	The carrying value of certain of our assets and liabilities, consisting primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable, approximates their fair value due to the short-term nature of such instruments.
	Our financial instruments that are subject to fair value measurements consist of the GES Warrant and long-term debt.
	The GES Warrant, which expired on March 2, 2015, contains a provision that protects the holder from a decline in the issue price of our common stock, or a “down-round” provision. Down-round provisions reduce the exercise or conversion price of a warrant or convertible instrument if a company either issues equity shares for a price that is lower than the exercise or conversion price of those instruments or issues new warrants or convertible instruments that have a lower exercise or conversion price. As a result of this provision, we account for this warrant as a liability. Following our initial public offering on August 13, 2014 and the full exercise of the Over-Allotment Option on August 29, 2014, the exercise price of the GES Warrant was reduced from $12.74 per share to $11.37 per share.
	In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 815 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” as amended, this warrant derivative liability is marked-to-market each reporting period, with a corresponding non-cash gain or loss charged to the current period. Fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, there exists a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
	Level 1	Unadjusted quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market;
	Level 2	Quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market that have been adjusted for items such as effects of restrictions for transferability and those that are not quoted but are observable through corroboration with observable market data, including quoted market prices for similar assets; and
	Level 3	Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability only used when there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date
	This hierarchy requires us to use observable market data, when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value.
	The warrant liability was recorded at fair value using Level 3 inputs as of December 31, 2013. Significant Level 3 inputs used to calculate the fair value of the warrant include the estimated share price on the valuation date, expected volatility, risk-free interest rate and management’s assumptions regarding the likelihood of a future repricing of these warrants pursuant to the adjustment provision. Due to the initial public offering completed in August 2014, the warrant liability was recorded at fair value using Level 1 inputs (our share price) for the year ended December 31, 2014.
	Based on the price of our stock on December 31, 2014 and the short period of time until the expiration of the GES Warrant on March 2, 2015, the warrant had no value as of December 31, 2014. The fair value of the GES warrant as of December 31, 2013 was $3.2 million. We recorded non-cash gains on warrant derivative associated with the changes in fair value of $3.2 million, $1.0 million and $3.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2014, December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
	The following provides a reconciliation of financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 3 inputs:
		December 31,
		2014			2013			2012
		(in thousands)
	Beginning balance	$	3,189		$	4,224		$	—
	Issuance of GES warrant	—			—			7,879
	Gain on warrant derivative	(3,189		)	(1,035		)	(3,655		)
	Ending balance	$	—		$	3,189		$	4,224
	The fair value of our long-term debt is determined by Level 3 measurements based on quoted market prices and terms for similar instruments, where available, or on the amount of future cash flows associated with the debt, discounted using our current borrowing rate for comparable debt instruments. The estimated fair value of our long-term debt totaled $22.9 million and $18.6 million as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, compared to a carrying amount of $22.5 million and $19.8 million as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
	Fair value measurements were applied with respect to our non-financial assets and liabilities measured on a nonrecurring basis, which would consist of measurements primarily related to goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets, and assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Contribution Transaction (Note 1). There were no transfers between levels of the hierarchy for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.
Revenue and Cost Recognition	Revenue and Cost Recognition
	Our revenues are principally derived from contract drilling services, as well as product sales, and field services provided to third parties, and transitional services provided to GES pursuant to a transitional services agreement (the “Transition Services Agreement”) entered into in connection with the Contribution Agreement (Note 1).
	We record contract drilling revenue for daywork contracts daily as work progresses, assuming collectability is assured. Daywork drilling contracts provide that revenue is earned daily based on a specified rate per day and the term of the contract which can be for a specific period of time or a specified number of wells. We generally receive lump-sum payments for the mobilization of rigs and other drilling equipment at the commencement of a new drilling contract. Revenue and costs associated with the mobilization are deferred and recognized ratably over the term of the related drilling contract once the rig spuds. Costs incurred to relocate rigs and other equipment to an area in which a contract has not been secured are expensed as incurred.
Stock-Based Compensation	Stock-Based Compensation
	We record compensation expense over the applicable vesting period for all stock-based compensation based on the grant date fair value of the award. The expense is included in selling, general and administrative expense in our statement of operations or capitalized in connection with rig construction activity.
Income Taxes	Income Taxes
	We use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, we record deferred income taxes based upon differences between the financial reporting basis and tax basis of assets and liabilities, and use enacted tax rates and laws that we expect will be in effect when we realize those assets or settle those liabilities. We review deferred tax assets for a valuation allowance based upon management’s estimates of whether it is more likely than not that a portion of the deferred tax asset will be fully realized in a future period.
	We recognize the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant taxing authority would more-likely-than-not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority.
	Our policy is to include interest and penalties related to the unrecognized tax benefits within the income tax expense (benefit) line item in our statement of operations.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates
	The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses recognized during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements	Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
	In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an accounting standards update to provide guidance on the reporting of discontinued operations and the disclosures related to disposals of components of an entity. Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods that begin after December 15, 2014. Early application is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact this will have on our consolidated financial statements. At this time, we do not believe it will materially impact our financial statements.
	In May 2014, the FASB issued an accounting standards update to provide guidance on the recognition of revenue from customers. Under this guidance, an entity will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects what it expects in exchange for the goods or services. This guidance also requires more detailed disclosures to enable users of the financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty, if any, of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We are currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.
	In June 2014, the FASB issued an accounting standards update to provide guidance on the accounting for share-based payments when the terms of an award provide that a performance target could be achieved after the requisite service period. The guidance requires that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period is treated as a performance condition. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. We are currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.
	In August 2014, the FASB issued guidance requiring management to perform interim and annual assessments of an entity’s ability to continue as a going-concern within one year of the date the financial statements are issued. The standard also provides guidance on determining when and how to disclose going-concern uncertainties in the financial statements. An entity must provide certain disclosures if there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going-concern. Management’s evaluation should be based on relevant conditions and events that are known and reasonably knowable at the date that the financial statements are issued. The new guidance applies to all entities and is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods thereafter, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have an impact on our consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
GES Drilling Services
Nature of Operations [Line Items]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation
	These combined financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. All significant transactions and balances between the entities have been eliminated.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	Cash and Cash Equivalents
	We consider short term, highly liquid investments that have an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivables	Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
	The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on past experience and other factors which, in management’s judgment, deserve current recognition in estimating bad debts. Such factors include growth and composition of accounts receivable, the relationship of the allowance for doubtful accounts to accounts receivable and current economic conditions. The determination of the collectability of amounts due from customer accounts requires GES to make significant judgments. Allowances for doubtful accounts are determined based on a continuous process of assessing GES’s portfolio on an individual customer and on an overall basis. This process consists of a review of historical collection experience, current aging status of the customer accounts, and financial condition of GES’s customers. Based on a review of these factors, GES will establish or adjust allowances for specific customers and the accounts receivable portfolio as a whole. At March 1, 2012 the allowance for doubtful accounts is $567.
	Below is a rollforward of the allowance for doubtful accounts for the period from January 1, 2012 through March 1, 2012:
	Beginning balance	$	224
	Adjustment to bad debt provision	343
	Accounts written off	—
	Ending balance	$	567
Inventory	Inventory
	Inventory is stated at lower of cost or market. Inventory consists primarily of purchased components for use in the manufacturing of drilling rigs. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. Appropriate consideration is given to obsolescence, excess quantities and other factors in evaluating net realizable value. GES determines reserves for inventory based on historical usage of inventory, age of inventory on hand, assumptions about future demand and market conditions, and estimates about potential alternative uses.
Property, Plant and Equipment, Net	Property, Plant and Equipment
	Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Additions of new equipment and major renewals and replacements of existing equipment are capitalized. Repairs and minor replacements are charged to operations as incurred. Cost and accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the accounts when assets are sold or retired, and the resulting gains or losses are included in operations.
	Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is provided using the straight-line method applied to the expected useful lives of the assets as follows:
		Estimated
		useful life
	Buildings	20	-	39 years
	Machinery and equipment	3	-	15 years
	Office furniture, fixtures and fittings	3	-	7 years
	Vehicles	2	-	5 years
	Software			5 years
Intangible Assets	Intangible Assets, including Goodwill
	Identified intangible assets with determinable lives consist primarily of trade names and customer relationships acquired in the LERS acquisition. Identified intangibles are being amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of 10 years. The identifiable intangibles are evaluated for impairment if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the intangibles below its carrying amount. GES evaluated the identifiable intangibles due to broad economic indicators and no impairment was recorded.
	GES evaluates the carrying value of goodwill on an annual basis and between annual evaluations if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying amount. Such circumstances could include, but are not limited to (1) a significant adverse change in legal factors or in business climate, (2) unanticipated competition, or (3) an adverse action or assessment by a regulator. When evaluating whether goodwill is impaired, GES compares the fair value of the reporting unit to which the goodwill is assigned to the reporting unit’s carrying amount, including goodwill. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, then the amount of the impairment loss must be measured. The impairment loss would be calculated by comparing the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill to its carrying amount. In calculating the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill, the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the other assets and liabilities of that unit based on their fair values. The excess of the fair value of a reporting unit over the amount assigned to its other assets and liabilities is the implied fair value of goodwill. An impairment loss would be recognized when the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. No impairment loss was recognized for the period from January 1, 2012 through March 1, 2012.
Financial Instruments and Fair Value	Financial Instruments
	GES’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, billings in excess of related costs and estimated earnings, and debt. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts, accounts payable, billings in excess of related costs and estimated earnings, and debt approximate fair value as these items are short term in nature. GES has no financial instruments that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
Advertising Costs	Advertising Costs
	GES expenses advertising costs as incurred. For the period from January 1, 2012 through March 1, 2012 advertising expense is $1.
Warranty Expense	Warranty Expense
	GES offers a limited warranty on certain products and provides for estimated warranty costs at the time of sale. Generally, the warranty period is one year from the date of delivery. This warranty reserve is reviewed annually and is based on historical warranty claims. The warranty reserve at March 1, 2012 is $143.
Revenue and Cost Recognition	Revenue and Cost Recognition
	GES’s products and services are sold based upon purchase orders or contracts with the customer that include fixed or determinable prices and that do not generally include right of return or other similar provisions or other significant post-delivery obligations.
	Except for certain long-term construction contract sales described below, GES records revenue from the sale of equipment, components and parts sold to the customers when title and risk of loss has passed to the customer, collectability is reasonably assured, pricing is fixed and the products have been shipped or delivered to customers, as applicable. GES records revenue from services performed when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, pricing is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. GES’s policy on field service jobs is to require signoff from the customer regarding amounts billed before revenue is recognized. The agreement by the customer of the preliminary invoice indicates evidence that an arrangement exists. Customer advances or deposits are deferred and recognized as revenue as GES completes its performance obligations or final completion of the product related to the sale. Included in operating costs is $77 of depreciation expense for equipment directly related to manufacturing for the period from January 1, 2012 through March 1, 2012.
	Revenue Recognition under Long-term Construction Contracts
	GES recognizes revenues on construction of rigs using the percentage-of-completion method, with the estimated earnings generally being accrued on the percentage that costs-to-date bear to total estimated costs. Projected losses, if any, are provided for in their entirety without reference to the percentage of completion. Because of the inherent uncertainties in estimating costs, it is possible that GES’s estimates of costs and revenues may be revised prior to contract completion. Revisions in costs and estimated earnings precipitated by changing conditions and circumstances during the term of the contracts are reflected in the accounting period in which the need for such revisions becomes known.
	Contract costs include all direct material, labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance. General and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. The current liability “billings in excess of related costs and estimated earnings” represents billings in excess of revenue recognized.
Income Taxes	Income Taxes
	GES uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, it records deferred income taxes based on temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities and uses enacted tax rates and laws that GES expects will be in effect when it recovers those assets or settles those liabilities, as the case may be, to measure those taxes. GES reviews deferred tax assets for a valuation allowance based upon whether it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will be fully realized.
	GES recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority. During the period ended March 1, 2012, GES did not identify any uncertain tax positions requiring recognition.
	GES’s policy is to include interest and penalties related to the unrecognized tax benefits within the income tax expense (benefit) line item in the combined financial statements.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates
	Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements. Those estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in the combined financial statements and related disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements	Recent Accounting Pronouncements Issued
	In September 2011, the FASB issued new guidance relative to the test for goodwill impairment. The new guidance permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011 with early adoption permitted. GES is in the process of evaluating the impact of the new guidance.
	In December 2010, the FASB issued new guidance relative to the test for goodwill impairment. The new guidance pertains to entities that have recognized goodwill and have one or more reporting units whose carrying amount for purposes of performing Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test is zero or negative. If it is more likely than not that goodwill impairment exists, the entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. This requires consideration of any adverse qualitative factors indicating that impairment may exist. The new guidance is effective for nonpublic entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011 with early adoption permitted. GES has considered this guidance in its assessment of reported goodwill and other intangible assets.
	Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB or other authoritative standards groups with future effective dates are either not applicable or are not expected to be significant to the financial statements of GES.
