Additional confirmation of the rig deployment comes from an offshore industry report stating that PV Drilling and PetroVietnam Exploration Production HCMC Branch signed a strategic contract to lease the IDUN jack-up rig from Borr Drilling for the same TL-WHP drilling program, again targeting three wells over roughly 134 days starting in mid-October 2026 and emphasizing the rig’s exclusive use for this campaign, according to shippingtelegraph.com on September 2, 2026.
