NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

General

		In the opinion of the management of Parker Drilling Company, the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normally recurring nature which are necessary for a fair presentation of (1) the financial position as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, (2) the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, and (3) cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009. Results for the six months ended June 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that will be realized for the year ending December 31, 2010. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

		*Nature of Operations —* Parker Drilling Company (Parker Drilling) and its majority-owned subsidiaries (together with Parker Drilling, the “Company”) is a worldwide provider of contract drilling and drilling-related services with extensive experience and expertise in drilling geologically difficult wells and in managing the logistical and technological challenges of operating in remote, harsh and ecologically sensitive areas. At June 30, 2010, our marketable rig fleet was comprised of 43 rigs which operate in North and South America, North Africa, Central Asia and Asia Pacific regions. Our rental tools business provides premium rental tools for land, offshore oil and gas drilling and workover activities both in the U.S. and abroad. We offer a full line of drill pipe, drill collars, tubing, high- and low-pressure blowout preventers, choke manifolds, junk and cement mills and casing scrapers. Our rental tool headquarters are in New Iberia, Louisiana with additional facilities located in Texas, North Dakota, Pennsylvania and Wyoming.

		*Consolidation and presentation —*The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and subsidiaries in which we exercise significant control or have a controlling financial interest, including entities, in which we are allocated a majority of the entity’s losses or returns, regardless of ownership percentage. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform with the current period presentation.

		*Use of Estimates —* The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP) requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect our reported amounts of assets and liabilities, our disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and our revenue and expenses during the periods reported. Estimates are used when accounting for certain items such as legal accruals, mobilization and deferred mobilization, revenue and cost accounting following the percentage of completion method, self-insured medical/dental plans, etc. Estimates are based on historical experience, where applicable, and assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved with estimates, actual results may differ.

		*Concentrations of Credit Risk* — Financial instruments, which potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of trade receivables with a variety of national and international oil and gas companies. We generally do not require collateral on our trade receivables.

		At June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, we had deposits in domestic banks in excess of federally insured limits of approximately $20.5 million and $68.1 million, respectively. In addition, we had deposits in foreign accounts at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 of $33.4 million and $46.7 million, respectively, which are not federally insured.

		Our customer base consists of major, independent and national oil and gas companies and integrated service providers. We depend on a limited number of significant customers. Our two largest customers, BP and ExxonMobil, constituted 16.0% and 15.3%, respectively of our year-to-date revenues as of June 30, 2010. In regards to BP, $40.9 million or 13.1% of the Company’s revenues on a year-to-date basis were derived from the percentage of completion accounting revenues associated with the BP Liberty rig construction that continues to decrease as we near completion of the rig and ready the rig for customer acceptance testing.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENT (continued)

General (continued)

		*Fair Value of Financial Instruments —*The estimated fair value of our $125.0 million principal amount 2.125% Convertible Senior Notes due 2012 was $110.2 million at June 30, 2010. The estimated fair value of our $300 million principal amount of 9.125% Senior Notes due 2018 was $285.0 million at June 30, 2010. For cash, accounts receivable, rig supplies and materials and accounts payable, we believe carrying value approximates estimated fair value due to the short-term nature and utilization of these assets.

		*Property, Plant and Equipment —* We provide for depreciation of property, plant and equipment on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets after provision for salvage value. Depreciable lives for different categories of property, plant and equipment are as follows:


Land drilling equipment		3 to 20 years
Barge drilling equipment		3 to 20 years
Drill pipe, rental tools and other		4 to 7 years
Buildings and improvements		10 to 20 years

		When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in results of operations. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operating expense as incurred.

		Interest from external borrowings is capitalized on major projects until the assets are ready for their intended use. Capitalized interest is added to the cost of the underlying asset and is amortized over the useful lives of the assets in the same manner as the underlying assets. Interest cost capitalized during the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 related to the construction of rigs totaled $3.3 million and $1.3 million, respectively.

		*Convertible Senior Notes, including call options and warrants* —The FASB accounting guidance requires that the liability and equity components of convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion (including partial cash settlement) be separated to account for the fair value of the debt and equity components as of the date of issuance to reflect the issuer’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate. Accordingly, a portion of the note balance of our 2.125% Convertible Senior Notes due 2012 is classified as additional paid in capital for the estimated fair value of the conversion feature at the date of issuance. In addition a discount on the convertible notes is being amortized through interest expense over the life of the convertible notes.

		*Stock-Based Compensation* — Total stock-based compensation expense recognized for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2010 was $1.1 million and $2.1 million, respectively, and for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2009 was $1.0 million and $2.8 million, respectively, all of which was related to non-vested stock. Stock-based compensation expense is included in our consolidated condensed statements of operations in both “General and administration expense” and “Operating expenses.” There were no non-vested stock options at June 30, 2010. We had 123,500 outstanding and exercisable stock options as of June 30, 2010, the aggregate intrinsic value of which was negligible, with a weighted average exercise price of $3.58 per share. Non-vested restricted stock awards at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 were 2,216,379 shares and 2,745,762 shares, respectively. Total unrecognized compensation cost related to unamortized non-vested stock awards was $5.1 million as of June 30, 2010 and $2.9 million as of December 31, 2009. The remaining unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock awards will be amortized over a weighted-average vesting period of approximately 18 months.

		For the six months ended June 30, 2010, the restricted stock vestings resulted in a tax benefit that was more than the deferred tax asset previously recognized. As a result, an excess tax benefit of $1.3 million was recorded to “Capital in excess of par value.”

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENT (continued)

Earnings Per Share (EPS) (continued)

All stock options outstanding during the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, were included in the computation of diluted EPS as the options’ exercise prices were less than the average market price of the common shares. Options to purchase 90,300 shares of common stock with exercise prices ranging from $3.78 to $4.20 per share were outstanding during the six months ended June 30, 2009, but were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because the options’ exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares and would have been anti-dilutive.

Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes

Under guidance for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, we prescribe a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. For the six months ended June 2009, we recognized $0.7 million of expense related to certain intercompany transactions between our U.S. subsidiaries and foreign affiliates. For the second quarter of 2010, we recognized additional expense of $0.6 million related to a permanent establishment issue of one of our subsidiaries and additional benefit of $0.2 million related to the expiration of statute of limitations in a foreign jurisdiction. As of June 30, 2010, we had a remaining liability for unrecognized tax benefits of $14.9 million primarily related to foreign operations.

Income Tax Benefit/Expense

Income tax expense was $1.6 million for the second quarter of 2010, as compared to income tax expense of $5.1 million for the second quarter of 2009. The decrease in income tax expense in the second quarter of 2010, compared to the second quarter of 2009, was primarily due to a reduction in income subject to income taxes in 2010.

		*9.125% Senior Notes, due April 2018*

		On March 22, 2010, we issued $300,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 9.125% Senior Notes due 2018 (9.125% Notes) pursuant to an Indenture between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (Trustee). The 9.125% Notes were issued at par with interest payable on April 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning October 1, 2010. Net proceeds from the 9.125% Notes offering were used to redeem the $225.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 9.625% Senior Notes due 2013, to repay $42.0 million of borrowings under the revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENT (continued)

Long-Term Debt (continued)

		The 9.125% Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company. The 9.125% Notes rank equal in right of payment with all of our existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness. The 9.125% Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed by substantially all of our direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries other than immaterial subsidiaries and subsidiaries generating revenue primarily outside the United States.

		At any time prior to April 1, 2013, we may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of 9.125% Notes at a redemption price of 109.125% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date with the net cash proceeds of certain equity offerings by us. On and after April 1, 2014, we may redeem all or a part of the 9.125% Notes upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount) equal to 104.563% for the twelve-month period beginning on April 1, 2014, 102.281% for the twelve-month period beginning on April 1, 2015 and 100% beginning on April 1, 2016, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

		If we experience specified changes of control, the Company must offer to repurchase the 9.125% Notes at 101% of the aggregate principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional interest, if any, to the date of repurchase.

		The Indenture restricts our ability and the ability of certain subsidiaries to: (i) sell assets; (ii) pay dividends or make other distributions on capital stock or redeem or repurchase capital stock or subordinated indebtedness; (iii) make investments; (iv) incur or guarantee additional indebtedness; (v) create or incur liens; (vi) enter into sale and leaseback transactions; (vii) incur dividend or other payment restrictions affecting subsidiaries; (viii) merge or consolidate with other entities; (ix) enter into transactions with affiliates; and (x) engage in certain business activities. These covenants are subject to a number of important exceptions and qualifications.

		The Indenture provides that each of the following is an Event of Default: (i) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on, or additional interest with respect to, the 9.125% Notes; (ii) default in payment when due of the principal of, or premium, if any, on the 9.125% Notes; (iii) failure by the Company or any of its restricted subsidiaries to comply within specified time periods with any of the other agreements in the Indenture; (iv) default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company or any of its restricted subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by the Company or any of its restricted subsidiaries) whether such indebtedness or guarantee now exists, or is created after the date 9.125% Notes are first issued, if that default: (a) is caused by a failure to pay principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on such indebtedness prior to the expiration of the grace period provided in such indebtedness on the date of such default (Payment Default); or (b) results in the acceleration of such indebtedness prior to its stated maturity, and, in each case, the principal amount of any such indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such indebtedness under which there has been a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $25.0 million or more; (v) failure by the Company or any of its subsidiaries to pay final judgments aggregating in excess of $25.0 million, which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of 60 days; (vi) except as permitted by the Indenture, any subsidiary guarantee shall be held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or shall cease for any reason (other than in accordance with the terms of that guarantee and the indenture) to be in full force and effect or any guarantor, or any person acting on behalf of any guarantor, shall deny or disaffirm its obligations under its subsidiary guarantee; and (vii) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency described in the indenture with respect to the Company or any of its significant subsidiaries or any group of restricted subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a significant subsidiary. In the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company, all outstanding 9.125% Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding 9.125% Notes may declare all the 9.125% Notes to be due and payable immediately.

		On June 21, 2010 pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement among the Company, the guarantors named therein, the initial purchasers of the 9.125% Notes and the Trustee, entered into as of March 22, 2010 in connection with the closing of the 9.125% Notes offering, we filed an exchange offer registration statement with respect to an offer to exchange the 9.125% Notes for substantially identical notes that are registered under the Securities Act. Additionally, we have agreed to use our commercially reasonable best efforts to cause that registration statement to become effective within 180 days from March 22, 2010.

		*9.625% Senior Notes, due October 2013*

		As of December 31, 2009, we had outstanding $225.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 9.625% senior notes due 2013 (9.625% Notes). On March 8, 2010, we commenced a cash tender offer and consent solicitation for all of our outstanding 9.625% Notes, which expired on April 2, 2010 (Tender Offer). The total consideration paid for each validly tendered 9.625% Note was equal to 103.458% of the aggregate principal amount of the 9.625% Notes, or $1,034.58 per $1,000 principal amount of 9.625% Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of payment. The total consideration included a consent payment of $30 per $1,000 principal amount of 9.625% Notes, payable only to holders who tendered their 9.625% Notes and validly delivered their consents prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on March 19, 2010 (Consent Date). Holders who validly tendered their 9.625% Notes after the Consent Date received the total consideration less the consent payment of $30, or $1,004.58 per $1,000 principal amount of the 9.625% Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of payment. Holders tendered $96.3 million in aggregate principal amount of the 9.625% Notes as of the Consent Date. On March 22, 2010, we paid $104.0 million, representing payment of the total consideration including the Consent Payment and accrued interest. On the same date, March 22, 2010, we voluntarily called for redemption all of our 9.625% Notes that were not tendered pursuant to the Tender Offer, at the redemption price of 103.208% of the principal amount of the 9.625% Notes, or $1,032.08 per $1,000 principal amount of the 9.625% Notes. On April 21, 2010, we redeemed in full the remaining $128.7 million principal amount of 9.625% Notes.

		*2.125% Convertible Senior Notes, due July 2012*

		On July 5, 2007, we issued $125 million aggregate principal amount of 2.125% Convertible Senior Notes (2.125% Notes) due 2012. The 2.125% Notes were issued at par and interest is payable semi-annually on January 15th and July 15th. The significant terms of the 2.125% Notes are as follows:

	•		2.125% Notes Conversion Feature — The initial conversion price for 2.125% Note holders to convert their notes into shares is at a common stock share price equivalent of $13.85 (77.2217 shares of common stock) per $1,000 note value. Conversion rate adjustments occur for any issuances of stock, warrants, rights or options (except for stock purchase plans or dividend re-investments) or any other transfer of benefit to substantially all stockholders, or as a result of a tender or exchange offer. We may, under advice of our Board of Directors, increase the conversion rate at our sole discretion for a period of at least 20 days.

	•		2.125% Notes Settlement Feature — Upon tender of the 2.125% Notes for conversion, we can either settle entirely in shares of common stock or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, solely at our option. Our intent is to satisfy our conversion obligation for our 2.125% Notes in cash, rather than in common stock, for at least the aggregate principal amount of the 2.125% Notes. This would reduce the resulting potential earnings dilution to only include any possible conversion premium, which would be the difference between the average price of our shares and the conversion price per share of common stock.

	•		Contingent Conversion Feature — 2.125% Note holders may only convert 2.125% Notes when either sales price or trading price conditions are met, on or after the 2.125% Notes’ due date or upon certain accounting changes or certain corporate transactions (fundamental changes) involving stock distributions. Make-whole provisions are only included in the accounting and fundamental change conversions such that holders do not lose value as a result of the changes.

Long-Term Debt (continued)

•

Settlement Feature — Upon conversion, we will pay either cash or provide shares of our common stock if any, based on a daily conversion rate multiplied by a volume weighted average price of our common stock during a specified period following the conversion date. Conversions can be settled in cash or shares, solely at our discretion.

		As of June 30, 2010, none of the conditions allowing holders of the 2.125% Notes to convert had been met.

		Concurrently with the issuance of the 2.125% Notes, we purchased a convertible note hedge (note hedge) and sold warrants in private transactions with counterparties that were different than the ultimate holders of the 2.125% Notes. The note hedge included purchasing free-standing call options and selling free-standing warrants, both exercisable in our common shares. The note hedge allows us to receive shares of our common stock from the counterparties to the transaction equal to the amount of common stock related to the excess conversion value that we would issue and/or pay to the holders of the 2.125% Notes upon conversion.

		The terms of the call options mirror the 2.125% Notes’ major terms whereby the call option strike price is the same as the initial conversion price as are the number of shares callable, $13.85 per share and 9,027,713 shares, respectively. This feature prevents dilution of our outstanding shares. The warrants allow us to sell 9,027,713 common shares at a strike price of $18.29 per share. The conversion price of the 2.125% Notes remains at $13.85 per share, and the existence of the call options and warrants serve to guard against dilution at share prices less than $18.29 per share, since we would be able to satisfy our obligations and deliver shares upon conversion of the 2.125% Notes with shares that are obtained by exercising the call options.

		We paid a premium of approximately $31.48 million for the call options, and received proceeds for a premium of approximately $20.25 million for the sale of the warrants. This reduced the net cost of the note hedge to $11.23 million. The expiration date of the note hedge is the earlier of the last day on which the 2.125% Notes remain outstanding and the maturity date of the 2.125% Notes.

		The 2.125% Notes are classified as a liability in our consolidated financial statements. Because we have the choice of settling the call options and the warrants in cash or shares of our common stock and these contracts meet all of the applicable criteria for equity classification, the cost of the call options and proceeds from the sale of the warrants are classified in stockholders’ equity in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, because both of these contracts are classified in stockholders’ equity and are solely indexed to our own common stock, they are not accounted for as derivatives.

		Debt issuance costs related to the 2.125% Convertible Notes totaled approximately $3.6 million and are being amortized over the five year term of the 2.125% Notes using the effective interest method. Proceeds from the transaction of $110.2 million were used to redeem our outstanding senior floating rate notes, to pay the net cost of hedge and warrant transactions, and for general corporate purposes.

		*2008 Credit Agreement:*

		On May 15, 2008, the Company entered into a credit agreement (Credit Agreement) consisting of a senior secured $80 million revolving credit facility (Revolver) and senior secured term loan facility (Term Loan) of up to $50 million. The Credit Agreement terminates on May 14, 2013.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENT (continued)

Long-Term Debt (continued)

		*Revolver:*

		Our Revolver is available for general corporate purposes and to support letters of credit. Interest on Revolver loans accrues at a base rate plus an Applicable Rate or LIBOR, plus an Applicable Rate. The Applicable Rate varies from a rate per annum ranging from 2.75% to 3.25% for LIBOR rate loans and 1.75% to 2.25% for base rate loans, determined by reference to the consolidated leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement). Revolving loans are available subject to a borrowing base calculation based on a percentage of eligible accounts receivable, certain specified barge drilling rigs and rental equipment of the Company and its subsidiary guarantors. There were no revolving loans outstanding at June 30, 2010. There were $42.0 million in revolving loans outstanding at December 31, 2009. Letters of credit outstanding as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 totaled $16.6 million and $12.7 million, respectively.

		*Term Loan:* The Term Loan originated at $50.0 million and requires quarterly principal payments of $3.0 million. The outstanding balances on the Term Loan at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 were $38.0 million and $44.0 million, respectively.

		Our obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by substantially all of our domestic subsidiaries, each of which has executed guaranty agreements. The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants such as minimum ratios for consolidated leverage, consolidated interest coverage and consolidated senior secured leverage.

		On January 15, 2010, the Credit Agreement was amended in anticipation of the issuance of 9.125% Notes described above, in order to, among other things, release certain subsidiaries from their obligations under the Credit Agreement, effective upon the repurchase or redemption of all the outstanding 9.625% Notes. These released subsidiaries are the Company’s immaterial subsidiaries and subsidiaries generating revenue primarily outside the United States. Upon the effectiveness of the amendment to the Credit Agreement, the guarantors under the Credit Agreement were the same as the guarantors of the 9.125% Notes.

Contingencies

		Asbestos-Related Claims

		In August 2004, Parker Drilling was notified that certain of its subsidiaries have been named, along with other defendants, in several complaints that have been filed in the Circuit Courts of the State of Mississippi by several hundred persons that allege that they were employed by some of the named defendants between approximately 1965 and 1986. The complaints name as defendants numerous other companies that are not affiliated with us, including companies that allegedly manufactured drilling related products containing asbestos that are the subject of the complaints.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENT (continued)

Contingencies (continued)

		Asbestos-Related Claims *(continued)*

		The complaints allege that our subsidiaries and other drilling contractors used asbestos-containing products in offshore drilling operations, land-based drilling operations and in drilling structures, drilling rigs, vessels and other equipment and assert claims based on, among other things, negligence and strict liability and claims under the Jones Act and that the plaintiffs are entitled to monetary damages. Based on the report of the special master, these complaints have been severed and venue of the claims transferred to the county in which the plaintiff resides or the county in which the cause of action allegedly accrued. Subsequent to the filing of amended complaints, we have joined with other co-defendants in filing motions to compel discovery to determine what plaintiffs have an employment relationship with which defendant, including whether or not any plaintiffs have an employment relationship with subsidiaries of the Company. Out of 668 amended single-plaintiff complaints filed to date, sixteen (16) plaintiffs have identified Parker Drilling or one of its affiliates as a defendant. One of the sixteen plaintiffs’ cases was transferred to the federal multi-district litigation and was administratively dismissed. Of the remaining 652 cases, discovery is proceeding in groups of 60 and none of the fifteen plaintiff complaints naming Parker Drilling are included in the first 60 (Group I). Selection of Discovery Group II was completed on April 21, 2008, and we were named in one suit in which the plaintiff claims that during 1973 he earned $587.40 while working for a former subsidiary of a company Parker Drilling acquired in 1996. No trial date has been set for this plaintiff.

		The subsidiaries named in these asbestos-related lawsuits intend to defend themselves vigorously and, based on the information available to us at this time, we do not expect the outcome to have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, we are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of these lawsuits. No amounts were accrued at June 30, 2010.

		Gulfco Site

		In 2003, we received an information request under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) designating Parker Drilling Offshore Corporation, a subsidiary of Parker Drilling, as a potentially responsible party with respect to the Gulfco Marine Maintenance, Inc. Superfund Site in Freeport, Texas (EPA No. TX 055144539). The subsidiary responded to this request with documents. In January 2008 the subsidiary received an administrative order to participate in an investigation of the site and a study of the remediation needs and alternatives. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) alleges that the subsidiary is a successor to a party who owned the Gulfco site during the time when chemical releases took place there. Two other parties have been performing the investigation and study work since mid-2005 under an earlier version of the same order. The subsidiary believes that it has a sufficient cause to decline participation under the order and has notified the EPA of that decision. Non-compliance with an EPA order absent sufficient cause for doing so can result in substantial penalties under CERCLA. To date, the EPA and the other two parties have spent approximately $3.5 million studying and conducting remediation of the site. It is anticipated that an additional $1.3 million may be required to complete the remediation. Other costs (not yet quantified), such as interest and administrative overhead, could be added to any action against us. We currently anticipate that the total claim will not exceed $5 million and will be shared by all responsible parties. We have conducted an evaluation of the subsidiary’s relationship to the site and continue to be engaged in discussions with the relevant parties in an effort to resolve the matter and to reduce potential risks and costs associated with possible litigation in the future.

		Customs Agent and Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) Investigation

		As previously disclosed, we received requests from the United States Department of Justice (DOJ) in July 2007 and the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in January 2008 relating to our utilization of the services of a customs agent. The DOJ and the SEC are conducting parallel investigations into possible violations of U.S. law by us, including the FCPA. In particular, the DOJ and the SEC are investigating our use of customs agents in certain countries in which we currently operate or formerly operated, including Kazakhstan and Nigeria. We are fully cooperating with the DOJ and SEC investigations and are conducting an internal investigation into potential customs and other issues in Kazakhstan and Nigeria. The internal investigation has identified issues relating to potential non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations, including the FCPA with respect to operations in Kazakhstan and Nigeria. At this point, we are unable to predict the duration, scope or result of the DOJ or the SEC investigation or whether either agency will commence any legal action.

		Further, in connection with our internal investigation, we also learned that an individual who may be considered a foreign official under the FCPA owns in trust a substantial stake in a foreign subcontractor with whom we do business through a joint venture relationship in Kazakhstan. The joint venture’s business with the foreign subcontractor will terminate at the conclusion of workover operations that commenced on a well in July 2010. We expect workover operations on that well to conclude during the third quarter of 2010. At this point, we do not expect the termination of the joint venture’s business with the foreign subcontractor to have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.

		The DOJ and the SEC have a broad range of civil and criminal sanctions under the FCPA and other laws and regulations, which they may seek to impose against corporations and individuals in appropriate circumstances including, but not limited to, injunctive relief, disgorgement, fines, penalties and modifications to business practices and compliance programs. These authorities have entered into agreements with, and obtained a range of sanctions against, several public corporations and individuals arising from allegations of improper payments and deficiencies in books and records and internal controls, whereby civil and criminal penalties were imposed. Recent civil and criminal settlements have included multi-million dollar fines, deferred prosecution agreements, guilty pleas, and other sanctions, including the requirement that the relevant corporation retain a monitor to oversee its compliance with the FCPA. In addition, corporations may have to end or modify existing business relationships. Any of these remedial measures, if applicable to us, could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.

		We have taken certain steps to enhance our anti-bribery compliance efforts, including retaining a full-time Chief Compliance Officer who reports to the Chief Executive Officer and Audit Committee, and implementing efforts for the adoption of revised FCPA policies, procedures, and controls; increased training and testing requirements; contractual provisions for our service providers that interface with foreign government officials; due diligence and continuing oversight procedures for the review and selection of such service providers; and a compliance awareness improvement initiative that includes issuance of periodic anti-bribery compliance alerts.

		Demand Letter and Derivative Litigation

		In April 2010, we received a demand letter from a law firm representing Ernest Maresca. The letter states that Mr. Maresca is one of our stockholders and that he believes that certain of our current and former officers and directors violated their fiduciary duties related to the issues described above under “Customs Agent and Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) Investigation.” The letter requests that our Board of Directors take action against the individuals in question. In response to this letter, the Board has formed a special committee to evaluate the issues raised by the letter and determine a course of action for the Company.

		Demand Letter and Derivative Litigation *(continued)*

		On June 3, 2010, Mohamed Kassamali, a purported shareholder of the Company, filed a derivative action in the state court of Harris County, Texas against our current directors and the Company as a nominal defendant. The lawsuit alleges that the individual defendants breached their fiduciary duties to the Company related to the issues described above under “Customs Agent and Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) Investigation.” On June 22, 2010, the Fuchs Family Trust, a purported shareholder of the Company, filed a substantially similar lawsuit in the state court of Harris County, Texas. On June 23, 2010, Kenneth Flacks, a purported shareholder of the Company, also filed a substantially similar lawsuit in the state court of Harris County, Texas. The lawsuits seek damages related to the alleged breaches of duty, unjust enrichment, abuse of control, gross mismanagement and waste of corporate assets. The damages sought include both compensatory and exemplary damages in an unspecified amount, along with various other forms of relief and an award of attorney fees, other costs, and expenses to the plaintiffs. All defendants have retained counsel, and we anticipate the cases will be consolidated into a single action before any substantive proceedings occur.

		Economic Sanctions Compliance

		We are subject to laws and regulations restricting our international operations, including activities involving restricted countries, organizations, entities and persons that have been identified as unlawful actors or that are subject to U.S. economic sanctions. Pursuant to an internal review, we have identified certain shipments of equipment and supplies that were routed through Iran as well as other activities, including drilling activities, which may have violated applicable U.S. laws and regulations. We have reviewed these shipments, transactions and drilling activities to determine whether the timing, nature and extent of such activities or other conduct may have given rise to violations of these laws and regulations, and we have voluntarily disclosed the results of our review to the U.S. government. At this point, we are unable to predict whether the government will initiate an investigation or any proceedings against us or the ultimate outcome that may result from our voluntary disclosure. If U.S. enforcement authorities determine that we were not in compliance with export restrictions, U.S. economic sanctions or other laws and regulations that apply to our international operations, we may be subject to civil or criminal penalties and other remedial measures, which could have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial condition and liquidity.

		Kazakhstan Ministry of Finance Tax Audit

		On August 14, 2009, the Kazakhstan Branch (PKD Kazakhstan) of Parker Drilling’s subsidiary, Parker Drilling Company International Limited (PDCIL), received an Act of Tax Audit from the Ministry of Finance of Kazakhstan (MinFin) for the period January 01, 2005 through December 31, 2007. PKD Kazakhstan was assessed additional taxes in the amount of KZT 1.45 billion (approximately $9.7 million) and associated interest in the amount of KZT 700 million (approximately $4.7 million). The amounts assessed relate to corporate income taxes and interest in connection with the disallowance of the head office’s management and administrative expenses, loan interest and state duties, as well as Value Added Taxes (VAT) and interest in connection with VAT offset on debts classified as doubtful by MinFin and for property taxes and interest in connection with Barge Rig 257 as a result of MinFin applying a lower rate of depreciation.

		On September 25, 2009, PKD Kazakhstan appealed the Act of Tax Audit with MinFin on the basis the Branch exercised its rights provided by the Convention between the Governments of the Republic of Kazakhstan and the United States of America on the Avoidance of Double Taxation and the Prevention of the Fiscal Evasion with respect to Taxes on Income and Capital as well as improper application of Kazakhstan Tax Code provisions.

		Kazakhstan Ministry of Finance Tax Audit *(continued)*

		On January 13, 2010, PKD Kazakhstan received a response from MinFin to the appeal filed September 25, 2009. MinFin agreed with PKD Kazakhstan to remove the assessment related to property taxes and interest in connection with Barge Rig 257 which reduced the overall assessment by KZT 741 million (approximately $5 million). MinFin simultaneously caused the Tax Department of the Atyrau Oblast (Tax Department) to issue a revised Tax Notification to PKD Kazakhstan for the residual assessment of KZT 959 million (approximately $6.5 million) of taxes and KZT 450 million (approximately $3 million) of associated interest, which residual assessment remains outstanding.

		On March 1, 2010, PKD Kazakhstan filed a claim against the Tax Department, in the Special Inter-district Economic Court of Atyrau Oblast, seeking to invalidate the revised Tax Notification. On May 5, 2010, the court elected not to issue a ruling on the merits of the case on the basis of an alleged lack of standing. PKD Kazakhstan adjusted and re-filed its claim in June 2010. Substantive arguments are continuing, and we anticipate a court decision in the third quarter of 2010. PKD Kazakhstan also intends to pursue the claim through higher levels of court appeals as necessary. Based on the information available to us at this time, we are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of this case. However, we do not expect the ultimate outcome to materially or adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. No amounts were accrued at June 30, 2010.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update “Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements.” This update requires an entity to: (i) disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reason for the transfers and (ii) present separate information for Level 3 activity pertaining to gross purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements. This amendment is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009. Because the standard does not change how fair values are measured, the standard did not have an impact on our consolidated condensed financial statements.

OVERVIEW AND OUTLOOK

Overview

We reported second quarter 2010 net income of $0.5 million, or $0.00 per diluted share on revenues of $156.5 million, compared with net income of $4.4 million, or $0.04 per diluted share on revenues of $221.8 million during the second quarter 2009. The results of the second quarter included a total of $4.4 million related to the DOJ investigation, legal expense, Mexico tax settlement and debt extinguishment costs of refinancing a portion of our existing debt. Our construction contract revenues included $20.5 million during the second quarter 2010, down from $77.6 million in 2009 reflecting the reduced revenues associated with work consisting of primarily labor as we near completion of the rig and ready the rig for customer acceptance testing.

Compared to second quarter 2009, second quarter 2010 results reflect improved performance from our U.S. businesses, including higher revenues and margins in our Rental Tools segment and improved utilization in our U.S. Drilling segment. We also generated slightly higher revenues in our Project Management and Engineering Services segment. The improvements in the U.S. were more than offset by lower international rig fleet utilization and shipyard time for our Caspian Sea Barge Rig 257, both negatively impacting our International Drilling segment.

OVERVIEW AND OUTLOOK (continued)

Overview (continued)

Second quarter 2010 U.S. Drilling segment revenues of $15.3 million increased 19.0 percent over second quarter 2009 revenues of $12.9 million, and gross margin of $1.8 million increased 42.3 percent over the $1.3 million gross margin in the second quarter of 2009. This performance reflects an increased number of barges at work during the quarter. One advantage we believe has benefitted our utilization was our 2009 decision to “ready-stack” our Gulf of Mexico barge rigs that were underutilized at the time. As demand improved, we believe we have captured a larger portion of the available work by providing fast back-to-work response times while keeping costs in line with softer market conditions. Although utilization has increased, dayrates remain suppressed in this market.

Rental Tools posted a strong second quarter 2010 with revenues of $41.4 million, a 46.9 percent increase over the second quarter 2009. Second quarter 2010 gross margin was $27.1 million and gross margin as a percent of revenues was 65.5 percent, both up from the second quarter 2009. This growth is attributable to improving conditions in U.S. land drilling markets and the Company’s successful deployment of strategic plans, including our positioning of stores in the more active shale plays and our 2009 capital investments in tubular inventory. With the improvement in market conditions, price discounting has lessened. Our efforts remain focused on continuing to serve our existing customer base while growing our business with new customers at the same time. Our rental tool business has been impacted by the drilling moratorium on deepwater drilling in the Gulf of Mexico. We anticipate the impact on revenues to be approximately $1 million per month until rigs return to work in the Gulf or relocate to international locations. We plan to remain vigilant on controlling costs in our rental tool business, and if revenues continue to increase in the active shale plays, this segment will continue to contribute to the Company as the year progresses.

Revenues in the Construction Contract segment were much lower in the second quarter of 2010 compared to the second quarter of 2009, reflecting the continued progress toward completion of the Liberty rig. Parker is installing the rig at its location on the North Slope, and these activities primarily consist of rig-up labor. The Liberty rig is a customer-owned rig constructed by Parker Drilling for BP on a fixed fee and reimbursable contract. Payments are made by BP as the construction progresses, with accounting for the project handled on a percentage of completion basis.

Second quarter 2010 Project Management and Engineering Services revenues were $26.4 million, a 10.4 percent increase over 2009 second quarter revenues of $23.9 million, primarily reflecting increased activity associated with our engineering and procurement services for an offshore platform for Exxon Neftegas Ltd. (ENL) that will target the Arkutun-Dagi field offshore Sakhalin Island. Also contributing to increased revenues in this segment were our operations and maintenance activities for ENL on the Orlan platform, which transitioned from a warm-stack mode to a higher-revenue mode during the 2010 second quarter.

When compared with 2009’s second quarter, the Company’s International Drilling segment revenues of $52.9 million declined $26.3 million, or 33.2% due to lower utilization. When compared with the first quarter of 2010, second quarter 2010 revenues were $10.9 million or 17.1% lower. A reduced dayrate for our Caspian Sea Barge Rig 257 during its shipyard time for a scheduled overhaul and upgrade program negatively affected revenues and earnings in the second quarter 2010 as the barge remained in the shipyard the entire period. Utilization remains strong in our Americas region, with 9 of 10 rigs working, including one previously idle rig going back to work in the second quarter. However, utilization in our Asia Pacific and CIS/Africa/Middle East regions remained depressed, as rigs in New Zealand, Algeria and Kazakhstan were ready-stacked after completing existing contract work.

We believe that the slowdown in some of our international markets is attributable to a delay in anticipated international E&P spending by our customers, principally because of the instability in European and Central Asian financial markets, causing some of our international rig fleet to experience gaps between contracts.

OVERVIEW AND OUTLOOK (continued)

Outlook

We believe that our operations are strategically well positioned, and although not all our locations are reporting year-to-year performance improvements through the first six months of 2010 compared with comparable prior year period, we believe we have the potential to produce improved earnings throughout the remainder of the year.

We had previously anticipated and disclosed our expectation of experiencing gaps between some contracts in our International Drilling fleet and have seen this transpire during the latter part of the second quarter. While we have had some success in extending contracts and getting new work for rigs coming off contract, we anticipate that our international rig fleet utilization will remain around current levels for the remainder of the year. Revenues should increase as our one barge rig in the Caspian returns to full dayrate in August.

The U.S. Drilling segment continues to experience solid utilization, however, dayrates remain depressed. We appear to be maintaining our market share and we are seeing slight improvement in overall market conditions.

Our Rental Tools segment continued to improve quarter over quarter. During the second quarter 2010, this segment’s performance was one of the strongest quarters in Company history. While we anticipate this segment will remain strong, we recognize that the deepwater U.S. Gulf of Mexico drilling moratorium may continue to have an impact on our rentals of deepwater equipment. We currently estimate the drilling moratorium is reducing revenue from our rental tools business by approximately $1.0 million per month and this impact will likely continue until the moratorium is lifted. For information, see “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Part II of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

Our work on the Liberty rig will transition from installation activities to operational activities when our customer, BP, directs us to do so. As noted earlier, the Orlan platform at Sakhalin Island transitioned into a higher-revenue mode in the second quarter. We continue our long-term operations and management work on the Yastreb rig. Engineering and procurement work continues for the drilling structures and equipment on the gravity based platform rig which is planned to be installed in Sakhalin’s Arkutun-Dagi filed. The construction for this project is starting up in Korea and the Company is working on plans to provide engineering support and construction supervision for the drilling structures. We also continue to monitor and bid on additional engineering and project management opportunities. If we are successful in our bids it could it could result in additional project work.

As part of our normal business operations, we monitor industry developments and their potential impacts to our business. In this regard, we are monitoring the consequences resulting from the incident in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico involving the Deepwater Horizon, including the recently imposed deepwater drilling moratorium. Although the incident and its consequences will likely result in increased regulation of offshore drilling the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, at this time, we cannot predict what specific further actions may be taken by the United States or state governments, our customers or other industry participants in response to the incident, or what impact any such actions may have on our operations or the operations of our customers. For information, see “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Part II of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended June 30, 2010 Compared with Three Months Ended June 30, 2009

We recorded net income of $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to net income of $4.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. Gross margin was $18.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to $27.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

International Drilling Segment

This segment’s revenues decreased $26.3 million to $52.9 million during the current quarter when compared to the second quarter of 2009 due to lower overall utilization and reduced day-rate during planned shipyard time for one of our rigs.

Revenues in our Americas region decreased by $7.8 million mainly due to lower rig utilization in Mexico, partially offset by higher revenue in Colombia in the second quarter of 2010 compared with the same period in the prior year. Revenues in our CIS region decreased by $15.3 million primarily due to planned maintenance and upgrades for our barge rig operating in the Caspian Sea and fewer rigs working in Kazakhstan. In our Asia Pacific region, revenues decreased $3.2 million due primarily to lower utilization in the second quarter of 2010 compared with the same period in 2009.

International operating gross margin, excluding depreciation and amortization, decreased $16.9 million to $13.5 million during the current quarter of 2010, as compared to the second quarter of 2009. The change in margins is primarily attributable to the above mentioned planned shipyard time for our barge rig in the Caspian Sea.

U.S. Drilling Segment

Revenues for this segment increased $2.4 million to $15.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 as compared with the quarter ended June 30, 2009. The increase in revenues was primarily due to a recovering market, which has led to improved utilization for the U.S. barges, partially offset by lower dayrates as pricing remains competitive.

The U.S. Drilling segment’s operating gross margin, excluding depreciation and amortization, improved by $0.5 million from the comparative quarter in 2009, due to increased revenues and lower operating costs.

Rental Tools Segment

Rental tools revenues increased $13.2 million to $41.4 million during the second quarter as compared to the second quarter of 2009. The year to year comparative increase is a result of improvements to the overall market conditions and high discounts that affected the business during the second quarter of 2009 being reduced in certain markets.

The segment’s operating gross margins, excluding depreciation and amortization, increased by $11.7 million in the current quarter as compared to the second quarter of 2009, primarily due to higher revenues, decreasing discounts and continued cost containment.

Project Management and Engineering Services Segment

Revenues for this segment increased $2.5 million to $26.4 million during the current quarter as compared to the second quarter of 2009. This increase was primarily due to revenue from the new Arkutun Dagi project in the 2010 comparable period, partially offset by higher margin upgrade and relocation work on the Yastreb rig during the second quarter of 2009. With loss of some revenue, without any corresponding decrease in costs, there was some decrease in margins for certain projects. Operating gross margin for this segment decreased by $0.9 million in the current period as compared to the same period in the prior year.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Construction Contracts Segment

Revenues from the construction of the extended-reach drilling rig for use in the Alaskan Beaufort Sea decreased $57.0 million to $20.5 million during the current quarter as compared to the second quarter of 2009. The results of this segment are impacted by the timing of the project, which is nearing its completion. This project is accounted for on a percentage of completion basis. Operating gross margin in the second quarter of 2010 was $0.5 million, a reduction from $3.6 million recorded in the second quarter of 2009.

Other Financial Data

Gain on asset dispositions for the second quarter of 2010 and 2009 was $1.7 million and $0.7 million, respectively, and was a result of asset sales during each period, respectively.

Interest expense, while remaining relatively consistent during the second quarter of 2010 as compared to the second quarter of 2009 was impacted by higher interest expense from new borrowings of $1.5 million, increased debt amortization costs of $0.3 million, and was offset by $2.0 million more of interest capitalized to support new rig construction. Debt extinguishment costs for the second quarter of 2010 were $4.0 million with no comparable expense in the second quarter of 2009. Interest income was minimal in each quarter.

General and administration expense decreased $4.2 million as compared to the second quarter of 2009 due to overall reduction in corporate costs, primarily related to lower legal spending.

Income tax expense was $1.6 million for the second quarter of 2010, as compared to $5.1 million for the second quarter of 2009. The decrease is driven by lower taxable income in the current year.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2010 Compared with Six Months Ended June 30, 2009

We recorded a net loss of $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to net income of $6.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. Gross margin was $34.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to $52.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

International Drilling Segment

This segment’s revenues decreased $39.9 million to $116.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2010 when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2009 due to lower overall utilization and reduced day-rate during planned shipyard time for one of our rigs.

Revenues in our Americas region decreased by $14.0 million mainly due to lower barge rig utilization in Mexico; partially offset by higher revenue in Colombia in the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared with the same period in the prior year. Revenues in our CIS region decreased by $20.4 million primarily due to planned maintenance and upgrade for our barge rig operating in the Caspian Sea and lower utilization of other rigs in the region. In our Asia Pacific region, revenues decreased $5.4 million due primarily to lower second quarter utilization compared with the same period in 2009.

International operating gross margin, excluding depreciation and amortization, decreased $27.8 million to $30.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2009. The change in margins is attributable to the above mentioned planned shipyard time for our barge rig in the Caspian and the decrease in revenues partially offset by decreased operating expenses.

U.S. Drilling Segment

Revenues for this segment increased $7.7 million to $30.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 as compared with the six months ended June 30, 2009. The increase in revenues was primarily due to a recovering market, which has led to improved utilization for the U.S. barges, especially in the second quarter, partially offset by continued low dayrates as pricing remains competitive.

The U.S. Drilling segment’s operating gross margin, excluding depreciation and amortization, improved by $5.9 million, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2009, due to increased revenues and lower operating costs.

Rental Tools Segment

Rental tools revenues increased $9.1 million to $75.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2009. The increase in the first half of 2010 is a result of improving market conditions and reduced discounting that affected the business during the first half of 2009.

The segment’s operating gross margins, excluding depreciation and amortization, increased $11.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2009, primarily due to higher revenues, decreasing discounts and continued cost containment.

Project Management and Engineering Services Segment

Revenues for this segment decreased $5.1 million to $50.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2009. This decrease was the result of lower rates for project management services due to reduced activity in Sakhalin with the Orlan platform going on a ready-stack rate and lower reimbursable revenues. During the second quarter of 2009 we performed and received payments for certain upgrade and relocation work that did not repeat in 2010. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in engineering services of $10.7 million due to new activity, primarily related to the Arkutun Dagi project.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Construction Contracts Segment

Revenues from the construction of the extended-reach drilling rig for use in the Alaskan Beaufort Sea decreased $53.4 million to $40.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2009. The results of this segment are impacted by the timing of the project, which is nearing completion. This project is accounted for on a percentage of completion basis. Operating gross margin for the construction project in the six months ended June 30, 2010 was a loss of $(0.3) million, a reduction from $4.4 million gross margin recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2009. This reflects an adjustment during 2010 of the fixed fee for the cost-reimbursable Liberty project, due to the expanded costs, which have impacted the percentage-of-completion allocation.

Other Financial Data

Gain on asset dispositions for the six months ended 2010 and 2009 was $2.4 million and $0.8 million, respectively, and was a result of asset sales during each period.

Interest expense decreased $1.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2009, primarily due to increased interest capitalization of $3.3 million during the second quarter 2010 compared to the same period in the prior year, partially offset by increased interest expense from new borrowings of $1.4 million and amortization of debt costs of $0.5 million. Debt extinguishment costs for the six months ended June 30, 2010 were $7.2 million with no comparable expense in the six months ended June 30, 2009. Interest income was minimal for the period.

General and administration expense decreased $7.2 million as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2009 due to overall reduction in corporate costs, primarily related to legal spending.

Income tax benefit was $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to income tax expense of $7.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. This is directly related to lower taxable income recorded for six months in 2010 compared to taxable income in the same period in 2009.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash Flows

As of June 30, 2010, we had cash and cash equivalents of $49.8 million, a decrease of $59.0 million from December 31, 2009. The primary sources of cash for the six-month period ended June 30, 2010 as reflected on the consolidated condensed statements of cash flows was $54.2 million from operating activities and $12.9 million from financing activities. Financing activities included proceeds from the issuance of $300 million aggregate principal amount of 9.125% Notes, less $7.9 million of associated debt issuance costs, offset by the repayment of $225.0 million aggregate principal value of 9.625% Senior Notes and payment of $7.5 million of related debt extinguishment cost, $6.0 million quarterly payments on our term loan facility, and $42.0 million repayment of borrowings under the revolving credit facility. The primary use of cash was $129.0 million for capital expenditures. Major capital expenditures for the year-to-date period included $75.1 million on the construction of two new rigs for work in Alaska and $25.8 million for tubulars and other rental tools for Quail Tools.

As of June 30, 2009, we had cash and cash equivalents of $94.6 million, a decrease of $77.7 million from December 31, 2008. The primary source of cash for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009 as reflected on the consolidated condensed statements of cash flows was $33.0 million provided by operating activities. The primary uses of cash were $94.0 million for capital expenditures and a net pay down of $16.0 million on our revolver credit facility. Major capital expenditures for the period included $31.0 million on the construction of two new Alaska rigs and $25.5 million for tubulars and other tools for Rental Tools.

Financing Activity

On March 22, 2010, we issued the 9.125% Notes pursuant to an Offering Memorandum dated March 11, 2010. The 9.125% Notes were issued at par with interest payable on April 1 and October 1, beginning October 1, 2010. We used the proceeds from the 9.125% Notes offering to redeem $225.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 9.625% Senior Notes due 2013 (9.625% Note), to repay $42.0 million of borrowings under the revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes.

On March 8, 2010, we commenced a cash tender offer and consent solicitation for all of our outstanding 9.625% Notes, which expired on April 2, 2010 (Tender Offer). The total consideration paid for each validly tendered 9.625% Note was equal to 103.458% of the aggregate principal amount of the 9.625% Notes, or $1,034.58 per $1,000 principal amount of 9.625% Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of payment. The total consideration included a consent payment of $30 per $1,000 principal amount of 9.625% Notes, payable only to holders who tendered their 9.625% Notes and validly delivered their consents prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on March 19, 2010 (Consent Date). Holders who validly tendered their 9.625% Notes after the Consent Date received the total consideration less the consent payment of $30, or $1,004.58 per $1,000 principal amount of the 9.625% Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of payment. Holders tendered $96.3 million as of the Consent Date. On March 22, 2010, we paid $104.0 million representing payment of the total consideration including the consent payment. On the same date, March 22, 2010, we voluntarily called for redemption our 9.625% Notes that were not tendered pursuant to the Tender Offer, at the redemption price of 103.208% of the principal amount of the 9.625% Notes, or $1,032.08 per $1,000 principal amount of the 9.625% Notes. On April 21, 2010, we redeemed the remaining $128.7 million principal amount of 9.625% Notes.

We paid in full the $42.0 million of borrowings under the revolving credit facility on March 26, 2010.

On July 5, 2007, we issued $125.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2.125% Convertible Senior Notes due 2012. Interest is payable semiannually on July 15th and January 15th. The initial conversion price is approximately $13.85 per share and is subject to adjustment for the occurrence of certain events stated within the indenture. Proceeds from the transaction were used to call our outstanding Senior Floating Rate notes, to pay the net cost of hedge and warrant transactions and for general corporate purposes. Effectively, the hedge and warrant transactions increase the conversion price to approximately $18.29 per share.

On May 15, 2008 we entered into a Credit Agreement (2008 Credit Facility) with a five year senior secured $80.0 million revolving credit facility (Revolving Credit Facility) and a senior secured term loan facility (Term Loan Facility) of up to $50.0 million. Our obligations under the 2008 Credit Facility are guaranteed by substantially all of our domestic subsidiaries, except for domestic subsidiaries owned by foreign subsidiaries and certain immaterial subsidiaries, each of which has executed a guaranty. The 2008 Credit Facility contains customary affirmative and negative covenants such as minimum ratios for consolidated leverage, consolidated interest coverage and consolidated senior secured leverage.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (continued)

Financing Activity

The 2008 Credit Facility is available for general corporate purposes and to fund reimbursement obligations under letters of credit the banks issue on our behalf pursuant to this facility. Revolving loans are available under the 2008 Credit Facility subject to a borrowing base calculation based on a percentage of eligible accounts receivable, certain specified barge drilling rigs and eligible rental equipment of the Company and its subsidiary guarantors. As of June 30, 2010, there were $16.6 million in letters of credit outstanding, $38.0 million outstanding on the Term Loan Facility and no borrowings on the Revolving Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2010, the amount utilized represents nearly 21 percent of the capacity of the Revolving Credit Facility. The Term Loan began amortizing on September 30, 2009 at equal installments of $3.0 million per quarter. On January 30, 2009, Lehman Commercial Paper, Inc. assigned its obligations under the 2008 Credit Facility to Trustmark National Bank. Upon assignment, Trustmark National Bank fully funded Lehman Commercial Paper, Inc.’s commitment, including an additional $4.0 million that Lehman Commercial Paper, Inc. did not fund in October 2008, therefore increasing our borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility to $62.0 million at that time. On June 3, 2009, we repaid $20.0 million of the Revolving Credit Facility, reducing the amount drawn to $42.0 million. On March 26, 2010, we repaid the $42.0 million with proceeds from the issuance of our 9.125% Notes. We expect to use the revolving credit facility over the next twelve months to primarily fund construction of the two new rigs for work in Alaska.

We had total long-term debt, including current portion, of $451.1 million as of June 30, 2010, which consists of:

•

$300.0 million aggregate principal amount of 9.125% Notes, which are due April 1, 2018;

•

$38.0 million drawn against our 2008 Credit Facility, including $38.0 million on our Term Loan Facility, $12.0 million of which is classified as short term, and none on our Revolving Credit Facility, and

•

$125.0 million aggregate principal amount of Convertible Senior Notes at a coupon rate of 2.125% , which are due July 15, 2012 less $11.9 million in unamortized debt discount.

As of June 30, 2010, we had approximately $113.2 million of liquidity which consisted of $49.8 million of cash and cash equivalents on hand and $63.4 million of availability under the Revolving Credit Facility.

Since 2008, a subsidiary of ours has been working to construct two new rigs for development drilling on the North Slope of Alaska. The cost of construction of the two new rigs will be funded partially by cash from operations and our fully available revolving credit facility. The two new rigs are subject to five-year contracts with BP Exploration (Alaska) Inc.

ITEM 3.		QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no material changes in market risk faced by us from those reported in our 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 3, 2010. For more information on market risk, see Part II, Item 7A in our 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K.


ITEM 4.		CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures — We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Securities Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based on the definition of “disclosure controls and procedures” in Rule 13a-15(e). In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. We performed evaluations under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2010. Based on the foregoing, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.


ITEM 4.		CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES *(continued)*

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting — There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2010 covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 1.		*LEGAL PROCEEDINGS*

For information regarding legal proceedings, see Note 10, “Contingencies,” in Item 1 of Part I of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, which information is incorporated herein by reference into this item.


ITEM 1A.		*RISK FACTORS*

There have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in Item 1A. Risk Factors of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, other than the following:

Our operations could be adversely impacted by the recent drilling rig accident in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, and its consequences.

On April 22, 2010, the Deepwater Horizon, a deepwater drilling rig owned by another contractor that was operating in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, sank after an apparent blowout and fire. In response to the incident, on May 30, 2010 the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement (BOEM), of the U.S. Department of the Interior, at the time known as the Minerals Management Service issued a notice to lessees and operators implementing a six-month moratorium on the drilling of new wells in water depths greater than 500 feet in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico and stating that the BOEM would not consider drilling permits for wells and related activities for those water depths during the moratorium. In response to the BOEM’s notice and its consequences, on June 22, 2010 a federal district court in Louisiana issued a preliminary injunction prohibiting the enforcement of the moratorium. The U.S. Department of the Interior subsequently filed a notice of appeal and a request for stay of the preliminary injunction, but the federal district court and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit denied the department’s request for stay during the appeals process. In response to the preliminary injunction, on July 12, 2010 the BOEM issued another notice to lessees and operators imposing a new moratorium on drilling activities in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico. The notice directs the suspension of drilling operations that use subsea blowout preventers (“BOPs”) or surface BOPs on floating facilities. During this newly-issued moratorium, the BOEM will not consider approval of pending and future applications for permits to drill wells using subsea BOPs or surface BOPs on floating facilities. The current moratorium is scheduled to end on November 30, 2010.

In addition to the drilling moratorium, effective June 8, 2010, the BOEM issued a separate notice to lessees and operators in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico implementing safety requirements that had previously been recommended in response to the Deepwater Horizon incident. Among other things, this notice requires each operator to conduct a specific review of its operations and to certify to the BOEM that it is in compliance with the new requirements and current regulations. This notice also requires operators to submit independent third-party reports on the design and operation of certain pieces of drilling equipment, including BOPs and other well control systems. This notice instructs operators to conduct tests on the functionality of various rig parts and to submit the results of those tests to the BOEM. With respect to operations subject to the moratorium, the reports and certifications are required to be provided to the BOEM prior to commencement of operations following expiration of the moratorium.

Although we have no ongoing drilling operations directly subject to the moratorium, we do have drilling operations in inland state waters which may be threatened if the spilled oil continues to spread. Our Rental Tools business has customers with operations subject to the moratorium. We estimate the moratorium may result in a reduction of approximately $1.0 million per month in tool rental revenue for as long as the moratorium stays in place.


ITEM 1A.		*RISK FACTORS (continued)*

The Deepwater Horizon incident and its consequences will likely result in increased regulation of offshore drilling in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico. However, we cannot predict what specific further actions may be taken by the federal or state governments, our customers or other industry participants in response to the incident, or what impact any such actions may have on our operations or the operations of our customers. However, significant delays in our operations or our customers’ operations caused by the spill or changes in regulations regarding future offshore exploration and production activities or other government or customer actions could continue to have an adverse effect on our results of operations.
