Re FGI -- I would love to hear more about this "bid for FGI at $24". Any details appreciated. FGI put out a press release yesterday about an EVA job which said nothing. The meat behind the release, from the best I can tell, is that the second EVA conversion job which was awarded to TDI Halter (FGI got the other five), is being moved to FGI for final outfitting and completion. I think this is about a USD 60 million job...but I don't know for sure. If what I say is true, this is a great new job for FGI. It also begs the question of WHY did Noble move the rig from TDI to FGI for completion? big loosbrock.com (subscribe to ODB for FREE)
