I recall someone yesterday listed the debt equity ratios of the deep water drillers. I think RIG was at about 37%, but I don't recall the others. I have some recollection that MDCO had little or no debt.

Of course, the terms of the debt arrangements would determine how susceptible the companies would be to changes in the interest rates. I probably should have researched it more, but I have no idea what type of rates they have locked in and for how long.
