what happened
Arabian Drilling Company reported that third-quarter revenue and EBITDA rebounded as offshore rigs went back to work, and the company returned to net profit. According to TradingView, its backlog reached a record SAR 17.6 billion. Management guides fourth-quarter revenue up roughly 8-10% quarter on quarter, and plans higher 2026 capital spending for rig mobilization.
why it matters
For oilfield services, a record backlog gives revenue more visibility, while rising spending on moving rigs signals fleet expansion. Investors in regional drillers will watch whether utilization gains carry into the next quarters and how the added capital spending affects the company's free cash flow in the coming year and beyond.
