(47.5 m) Classification ABS or DNV Accommodations 100 in two-person rooms deepwater fields, has created an unprecedented "up" cycle which has seen day rates soar, while owners/operators scramble to find yards to convert and upgrade older rigs (and build new ones) for the tremendous volume of projects. The result: a strong demand for shipyard space, and an opportuni- ty for yards to enact appropriate pricing initiatives for at least the next two years. To help it cope with the burgeoning demand, FGII is (in addition to the Marystown deal detailed above) constructing a new shipyard, which should be operational by the second quarter of 1998. The yard will focus on newbuild orders for the Gulf of Mexico, the North Sea, West Africa and Southeast Asia. Bear Stearns projects revenue contribution from the facility to be $33 million in 1998 and $137 million in 1999.

The JU-2000 features enhanced leg design, cantilevered quarters, extended reach cantilever and modular hull design. The modular hull design fea- tures are designed to maximize efficiency and minimize fabrica- tion costs. The structure is highly adaptable. The JU-2000 is a self- elevating drilling unit, designed for all-year North Sea harsh envi- ronment operation in 330 ft. (122 m) of water. In less harsh environ- ments, the rig is designed to work in up to 400 ft. (122 m) of water with its standard leg length of 522 ft. (159 m) and normal jacking sys- tem of 36 pinions. Greater water depths are possible with the addi- tion of pinions, and hull and leg modifications.
