Russ, sorry if this is a late reply, I've been out of pocket.

<replacement value is a horrible horrible way to try to trade this sector.>

>>>Can't really agree as it's the only fleet we have, and as you say there won't be more coming, if ever.<<<

Fair enough, you don't have to agree. Lots of folks have gone down in flames thinking replacement value has any relevance whatsoever. The only thing that matters for rental companies is cash flow and profits.

On the second thing - when more rigs are coming. The answer is not now, until 'now' suddenly turns into now. We will start building rigs again with reckless abandon as soon as some more oil companies whisper sweet nothings in our ears. Drilling companies love to build rigs, and are mighty gullible when it comes to inking deals.
