Schahin集团破产保护申请获准
Schahin集团自去年四月份申请破产保护以来，各债务方的反映强烈，其破产申请也遭到了百般阻挠。时隔近一年，巴西法官Marcelo Barbosa Sacramone最终于3月22日批准了Schahin集团的破产保护申请。
据悉，Schahin集团欠包括HSBC, Bancl Tricury, Bicbanco在内的十二家债务银行共计近60亿雷亚尔。此外，Schahin集团还在四个钻井平台建造项目中共欠债券持有人近乎同样的债务。
根据公司的重组计划，Schahin集团将分15年偿还债务，宽限期为两年。在债务偿还计划中，Schahin集团以售后回租的方式和巴油签订的Vitoria 10000钻井船租赁合同起到了重要的支撑作用，该租约至2020年到期，可续租至2031年。
A Brazilian bankruptcy judge on Tuesday ruled that the Schahin group of companies will enter into bankruptcy protection after creditors staged a battle over the issue.The ruling will save the company from going into insolvency, an outcome that was looking increasingly likely.Judge Marcelo Barbosa Sacramone held that the creditor banks blocking the bankruptcy protection had not been acting in good faith. He also upheld Schahin’s argument that the vote of Japan’s Mizuho bank should be annulled due to a conflict of interest.Twelve creditor banks – including HSBC, Banco Tricury and Bicbanco – say they are owed almost 6 billion reais ($1.6 billion).Schahin owes about the same amount to bondholders behind four rig construction projects, but these debts are being pursued through alternative processes.The restructuring plan proposes paying the debt, undiscounted, over 15 years, with a two-year grace period.Revenue from the drillship Vitoria 10000 – operated under a leaseback contract with Petrobras – will be a bedrock of the recovery plan.The lease-and-operate terms run until 2020, renewable through 2031.The leaseback deal has so far survived evidence that the original contract was tainted by kickbacks, according to federal prosecutors in the massive Car Wash investigation into corruption involving state oil giant Petrobras.Federal prosecutors allege that a Brazilian businessman, Jose Carlos Bumlai, handled hidden commissions on the contract. They said the kickbacks were to repay Schahins’ banking branch for a loans funding the ruling Workers Party’s election campaign.
Seadrill的West Tellus钻井船获巴油续租
近日，巴西国家石油公司（Petrobras）将Seadrill公司的West Tellus钻井船租赁合同的截止时间从2018年4月延长至2019年10月。与此同时，West Tellus钻井船的日费率也自即日起被压缩至288,000美元，相比于此前的日费率下降了180,000美元。
Petrobras has extended a contract with a Seadrill drillship off Brazil but has secured a dayrate drop for the current contract.The Brazilian state-controlled oil giant will hold onto the ultra-deepwater unit West Tellus when its current contract ends in April 2018 until the end of October 2019.The contract backlog for the extension period is $164 million and, with the extension equating to a period of around 19 months, this equates to a dayrate of some $288,000 – a huge drop from the original rate for the current deal of $467,000.As part of the extension, Petrobras has secured a reduction on the current day rate equating to a total of $132 million until April 2018.Taking this to mean a reduction over the final two years of the original deal, this is a dayrate reduction of around $180,000, bringing the current rate down to the rate for the extension.
