Strong drilling services power Velesto into the black


“The continued demand in both jack-up drilling rigs and hydraulic workover units is expected to benefit the group, being the main player with strong domestic and regional track records. Improvements in time charter rates and contract durations are also seen based on recently awarded contracts,” Velesto said.
