International offshore driller Ocean Rig UDW Inc filed for Chapter 15 bankruptcy protection in a U.S. court late Monday, hit by cancellations as major oil producing customers withdrew from deep water projects amid falling oil prices.
The Cayman Islands holding company, which spent heavily on new drill ships earlier in the decade, said lower oil prices will continue to weigh on client demand during 2017. More than half of its drilling units are currently inactive.
In a filing with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in New York, Ocean Rig UDW President Antonios Kandylidis said the company had reached an agreement with a group of lenders to convert $3.7 billion of debt into new equity.
Kandylidis said the Chapter 15 filing aims to protect the restructuring deal from distressed debt investors who had hoped to make money after buying the company's bonds during a steep oil price decline last year. He called the "vulture investors" move "a bad bet."

Transocean Ltd., the world’s largest offshore drilling company, agreed to buy a smaller rival in a $2.9 billion deal, with rates for deepwater rigs forecast to double in two years.
The cash-and-stock acquisition of Ocean Rig UDW Inc. will give Transocean a fleet of nine ultra-deepwater drillships and two harsh environment semisubmersibles, plus two additional ships under construction, the companies said in a statement Tuesday.
Offshore oil drilling was hit particularly hard during the price slump, squeezed by higher costs and the resurgence of the U.S. shale industry. As major oil companies from Exxon Mobil Corp. to BP Plc canceled offshore projects, the groups that provide the high-tech drilling ships needed to operate in deep waters suffered.
Customer interest in offshore activities is now increasing. Day rates for ultra-deepwater drilling will double by 2020, Vernier, Switzerland-based Transocean said on a conference call with analysts to discuss the deal, citing data from Wood Mackenzie Ltd. Once the Ocean Rig transaction is complete, Transocean will have 57 floaters.
“The combination of constructive and stable oil prices over the last several quarters, streamlined offshore project costs, and undeniable reserve replacement challenges has driven a material increase in offshore contracting activity,” Transocean Chief Executive Officer Jeremy Thigpen said in the statement.
Given Ocean Rig’s high-quality floater fleet and “relatively clean” balance sheet, Ocean Rig was a prime take-out target and the merger is “a highly logical strategic fit,” Tudor, Pickering, Holt & Co. said in a note after the deal was announced.
The Ocean Rig deal is the largest in the oil and gas drilling industry this year, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. It’s Transocean’s biggest acquisition since its purchase of Songa Offshore SE, which was completed in January.
