The credit over the next year

Transocean is guiding fourth quarter 2026 contract drilling revenue of $915 to $965 million and preliminary 2027 revenue of $3.85 to $4.0 billion, roughly flat with the $3.9 to $3.95 billion guided for 2026, even though ultra-deepwater utilization has already slid from 82% to 68% this year as drillships came off contract. The $8.0 billion backlog and roughly 95% contract coverage for 2027 protect cash flow, so the next year turns on whether the uncommitted drillships find work at dayrates near the recent $423,000 average, whether revenue efficiency holds at the 96.5% guide, and how fast the Valaris combination, expected to close December 1, 2026, delivers its $200 million of synergies while debt keeps falling from $4.98 billion.

  • Leverage falls from 3.1x to 2.8x over the next four quarters on the starting case.
  • Free cash flow of $711mm is projected over the next year, enough to cover the $74mm of debt due in that time.
  • Net debt shrinks from $4.52bn to $3.81bn; maturing debt is assumed refinanced unless changed in the model.
  • Liquidity a year out is $1.62bn, against $912mm today.

Due inside a year: 7.45% Notes due April 2027 ($52mm); 8.00% Debentures due April 2027 ($22mm).
