From a liquidity perspective, the operations of our Mexican JVs have suffered from irregular payments and difficulties with factoring of receivables, which in turn has put further strain on the Company's liquidity position. However, in late August 2020, Pemex confirmed their commitment to enter into a regular monthly payment plan to our JVs, which will reduce the working capital requirements and allow cash distributions from the JVs to Borr, and thereby improve Borr's liquidity position.
The improvement in oil prices during the spring of 2020 triggered demand for putting three of our warm stacked units back to work. This shows the resilience of the shallow water offshore drilling market and, as oil prices continue to improve, we expect to put further units back to work in the future.
The distress in the offshore drilling industry is likely to force both needed consolidation and fleet rationalisation going forward. Borr Drilling has a brand-new jack-up drilling rig fleet and is well positioned to participate in such consolidation if it benefits our shareholders."
