Awilco Drilling PLC: Cost Reduction

Awilco Drilling PLC announces that in light of the termination of the newbuild
Nordic Winter and the significant delay in the construction and anticipated
start-up of operations of the newbuild rig Nordic Spring, cost saving will be
required. Based on this situation Awilco Drilling Norge AS has decided to
initiate a wide range of cost reducing measures. Further information will be
provided in due course.
