LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Ensco plc (NYSE: ESV) was ranked highest among offshore drillers in the recently announced Customer Satisfaction Index of Global Oilfield Suppliers conducted by EnergyPoint Research, an independent research firm that measures and monitors customer satisfaction in the global oilfield.
Ensco earned the #1 position among offshore drilling contractors by taking top honors in eleven categories including: total satisfaction; job quality; performance and reliability; health, safety and environment; technology; special drilling applications; and shelf wells. Ensco also earned the top ranking among independent operators and was rated first internationally with leading scores in the North Sea and Asia & Pacific Rim.
Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer Dan Rabun stated, “I am honored that Ensco’s employees have received independent acknowledgment for their hard work and dedication in serving our customers around the world. This recognition is a testament to the experience and expertise of our workforce and the effectiveness of our training and development programs that are accredited by the International Association of Drilling Contractors (IADC).”
