Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers

- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“A letter of support has been received from the parent. Therefore, the directors consider that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for at least the period of 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. For this reason, the directors believe that the Company is a going concern and these financial statements have been prepared on that basis.”
Significant events
- “Political risk - In late May 2023, the Labour Party confirms to set out proposals involve not just a ban on new North Sea oil and gas licences, but a pledge that any borrowing for investment should be limited to green schemes if they win in the next general election. The commitment to achieve net zero and the pronouncements made by the Labour Party will affect drilling contractors negatively.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
