Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | Note 8 — Commitments and Contingencies Tax Matters Audit claims of approximately $11.5 million at June 30, 2026, attributable to income and other business taxes, remain outstanding and are under continued objection by Noble. Such audit claims remain under continued monitoring and evaluation on a quarterly basis as facts change and as audits and/or litigation continue to progress. We intend to vigorously defend our reported positions and currently believe the ultimate resolution of the audit claims will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements. We operate in numerous countries throughout the world and our tax returns filed in those jurisdictions are subject to review and examination by tax authorities within those jurisdictions. We recognize uncertain tax positions that we believe have a greater than 50% likelihood of being sustained upon challenge by a tax authority. We cannot predict nor provide assurance as to the ultimate outcome of any existing or future assessments. Letters of Credit and Surety Bonds As of June 30, 2026, we had $6.7 million of letters of credit issued under the Revolving Credit Facility and an additional $42.5 million in letters of credit and surety bonds issued under bilateral arrangements which guarantee our performance as it relates to our drilling contracts, contract bidding, tax appeals, customs duties, and other obligations in various jurisdictions. We expect to comply with the underlying performance requirements and we expect obligations under these letters of credit and surety bonds will not be called. Other Contingencies We are a defendant in certain other claims and litigation arising out of operations in the ordinary course of business, including personal injury claims, the resolution of which, in the opinion of management, will not be material to our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. There is inherent risk in any litigation or dispute and no assurance can be given as to the outcome of these claims.
