Rents large floating drilling platforms and crews to oil and gas companies for drilling wells in deep ocean waters.
Built from Transocean Ltd.’s own filings with the SEC. Figures are as reported, with per-share history restated onto today’s share basis. This describes a business — it is not investment advice and not a recommendation to buy or sell anything.
Transocean owns and operates a fleet of large floating drilling vessels, mainly ultra-deepwater drillships and harsh-environment semisubmersible platforms. It contracts these vessels, together with the drilling equipment and work crews that live on them, to oil and gas companies that need to drill wells far from shore in deep or difficult ocean conditions. The company focuses on the most technically demanding types of offshore drilling.
Shares of revenue are estimates for 2025 and 2026 periods, not figures from a filing.

Three ratings, each a percentile against the 10 companies we cover in Oil Gas Drilling. Deliberately kept apart rather than blended into one score — cheap, rising and well-run are three different facts, and a single number would hide which one is which.
Above most of its industry
The most recent month is left out on purpose: returns tend to persist over 7–12 months and the newest one tends to reverse. This describes what the price has done, and says nothing about what it will do.
Above most of its industry
Yields, so higher means cheaper — a loss-making company ranks last instead of dropping out. Cheap is not the same as good: a high yield is often a price that fell for a reason. Blended from 4 of 5 measures.
