References in this report to “Nabors Delaware” mean Nabors Industries, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Nabors. ​ Our business is comprised of our global land-based and offshore drilling rig operations and other rig related services and technologies. We provide performance tools, directional drilling services, tubular running services and innovative technologies for our own rig fleet and those operated by third parties. In addition, we manufacture advanced drilling equipment and provide drilling rig instrumentation. Also, we have a portfolio of technologies designed to drive energy efficiency and emissions reductions for both ourselves and our third-party customers. ​ With operations in over 15 countries, we are a global provider of drilling and drilling-related services for land-based and offshore oil and natural gas wells, with a fleet of rigs and drilling-related equipment which, as of September 30, 2023 included: ​
| ● | 298 actively marketed rigs for land-based drilling operations in the United States and various countries throughout the world; and

​ The short- and long-term implications of the military hostilities between Russia and Ukraine, which began in early 2022, remain difficult to predict. We continue to actively monitor this dynamic situation. As of September 30, 2023, 0.9% of our property, plant and equipment, net was located in Russia. For the nine months ending September 30, 2023, 1.2% of our operating revenues were from operations in Russia. We currently have no assets or operations in Ukraine. ​
