(2) Expiration dates represent the company's current estimate of the earliest date the contract for each rig is likely to expire. Some rigs have two contracts in continuation, so the second line shows the estimated earliest availability. Many contracts permit the client to extend the contract. (3) Represents the full operating dayrate, although the average dayrate over the term of the contract will be lower and could be substantially lower. Does not reflect incentive programs which are typically based on the rig's operating performance against a performance curve. (4) The rig is leased from its owner, an unrelated third party, pursuant to a fully defeased lease arrangement. (5) Although originally constructed in 1982, this unit was substantially upgraded in 1996. (6) Accounted for as an operating lease as a result of the sale/leaseback transaction in November 1995. (7) Owned by a joint venture in which the company has a 75% interest. (8) Operated under a management contract with the rig's owner. The rig is currently engaged in scientific geological coring activities and is owned by a joint venture in which the company has a 50% interest. Dayrate indicated reflects 100% of contract rate. (9) Current contract provides for a bonus incentive opportunity not reflected in the stated current contract dayrate. (10) Dayrate reflects a base level to be paid over the estimated 450-day contract period. The rig will receive a dayrate higher than the stated base level when utilized in a water depth of greater than 2,000 feet. (11) Rig was assigned by ENI to IEOC in Egypt in early September and is expected to return to ENI in Italy following the completion of work in Egypt. Increase in dayrate reflects higher operating costs associated with work in Egypt. Transocean Inc. Fleet Page 5
