relationship between ARO Drilling, IMI and Dammam Shipyard as well as

contributing to the development of a localized industry. IMI is delighted to

have been able to complete this project for ARO on-time and safely. We look

forward to supporting ARO again in the very near future." Darren Macdonald,

IMI Chief Operating Officer, Zones A & D.

"ARO is committed to increasing our presence in the region and we are pleased

to have successfully completed the ARO-2003 (SAR201), on schedule, but most

importantly safely. Awarding this project to IMI enabled us to use local

manufacturing capabilities; to support our fleet refurbishment objectives."
