Contract Status of Offshore Rig Fleet
As of March 16, 2009
 	
Statements contained in the Contract Status of Offshore Rig Fleet Report, including information regarding the Company's estimated rig availability, contract duration or future rig rates, customers or contract status (including letters of intent) are forward-looking statements made pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements include references to future rig rates or utilization, rig enhancement projections, shipyard construction or work completion, and other contract or letter of intent commitments, including new rig commitments, the period of time and number of rigs that will be in a shipyard for enhancement or construction, scheduled delivery dates for new rigs, scheduled commencement dates for new contracts and rig relocations. It is important to note that our actual results could differ materially from those projected in such forward-looking statements. The factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include the following: (i) industry conditions and competition, including changes in rig supply and demand or new technology, (ii) risks associated with the current global economic crisis and its impact on capital markets and liquidity, (iii) prices of oil and natural gas in general, and the recent precipitous decline in prices in particular, and the impact of commodity prices upon future levels of drilling activity and expenditures, (iv) material changes in the timing of revenue recognition resulting from the deferral of revenues payable by our customers for mobilization of our drilling rigs, time waiting on weather or time in shipyards which are recognized over the contract term upon commencement of drilling operations, (v) excess rig availability or supply resulting from delivery of new drilling rigs, (vi) heavy concentration of our rig fleet in premium jackups, (vii) cyclical nature of the industry, (viii) worldwide expenditures for oil and natural gas drilling, (ix) operational risks, including hazards created by severe storms and hurricanes, (x) risks associated with offshore rig operations or rig relocations in general, and in foreign jurisdictions in particular, (xi) renegotiation, nullification or breach of contracts or letters of intent with customers or other parties, including failure to negotiate definitive contracts following announcements or receipt of letters of intent, (xii) inability to collect receivables, (xiii) changes in the dates new contracts actually commence, (xiv) changes in the dates our rigs will enter a shipyard, be delivered, return to or enter service, (xv) risks inherent to domestic and foreign shipyard rig construction, repair or enhancement, including risks associated with concentration of our ENSCO 8500 Series® rig construction contracts in a single foreign shipyard, unexpected delays in equipment delivery and engineering or design issues following shipyard delivery, (xvi) availability of transport vessels to relocate rigs, (xvii) environmental or other liabilities, risks or losses, whether related to hurricane equipment damage, losses or liabilities (including wreckage or debris removal) in the Gulf of Mexico or otherwise, that may arise in the future and are not covered by insurance or indemnity in whole or in part, (xviii) limited availability of economic insurance coverage for certain perils such as hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico or associated removal of wreckage or debris, (xix) self-imposed or regulatory limitations on drilling locations in the Gulf of Mexico during hurricane season, (xx) impact of current and future government laws and regulation affecting the oil and gas industry in general and our operations in particular, including taxation as well as repeal or modification of same, (xxi) governmental action, political and economic uncertainties, (xxii) our ability to attract and retain skilled personnel, (xxiii) expropriation, nationalization, deprivation, terrorism or military action impacting our operations, assets or financial performance, (xxiv) outcome of litigation, legal proceedings, investigations or claims, (xxv) adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates, (xxvi) potential asset impairments, (xxvii) potential reduction in fair value of our auction rate securities and (xxviii) other risks as described from time to time as Risk Factors and otherwise in the Company's SEC filings. Copies of such SEC filings may be obtained at no charge by contacting our investor relations department at 214-397-3045 or by referring to the investor relations section of our website at http://www.enscointernational.com.
