Rowan's revenues were $408.9 million in the second quarter of 2013, up 16% over the prior-year quarter due primarily to higher average day rates and higher utilization between periods.
Matt Ralls, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "In addition to our strong second quarter operating results, we are very pleased to have recently received contracts for our second and third ultra-deepwater newbuild drillships at attractive rates. Our backlog is at an all-time high and we are optimistic that we will have our fourth newbuild drillship contracted in the coming months. Our high-spec jack-ups continue to roll over to new contracts at higher rates, which along with earnings from our newbuild drillships should provide strong earnings growth in 2014 and 2015."
