The Coast Guard has identified several components and systems aboard the drillship for attention, including the ship's propulsion and safety management systems. NE reported certain other potential regulatory non-compliance issues that it discovered relating to its operations, including possible unauthorized collected water discharges outside the period of drilling operations.
NE says it has already resolved a number of the issues and plans to complete the remaining items during the previously scheduled shipyard stay in Washington.
Shares of NE are up 0.06% to $35.16 in the pre-market session, within a 52-week range of $28.73 - $41.71.
