NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1—Business

Transocean Ltd. (together with its subsidiaries and predecessors, unless the context requires otherwise, “Transocean,” “we,” “us” or “our”) is a leading international provider of offshore contract drilling services for oil and gas wells. We specialize in technically demanding sectors of the offshore drilling business with a particular focus on ~~ultra‑deepwater~~ultra-deepwater and harsh environment drilling services. Our mobile offshore drilling fleet is considered one of the most versatile fleets in the world. We contract our drilling rigs, related equipment and work crews predominantly on a dayrate basis to drill oil and gas wells. As of March 31, ~~2019,~~2020, we owned or had partial ownership interests in and operated 48a fleet of 41 mobile offshore drilling units, including ~~31 ultra‑deepwater~~28 ultra-deepwater floaters, 1312 harsh environment floaters and ~~four~~1 midwater ~~floaters.~~floater. As of March 31, ~~2019,~~2020, we were constructing ~~(i) four additional ultra‑deepwater drillships and (ii) one harsh environment semisubmersible, in which we hold a partial ownership interest.~~2 ultra-deepwater drillships.

Note 2—Significant Accounting Policies

Presentation—We prepared our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S.”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form ~~10‑Q~~10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation ~~S‑X~~S-X of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Pursuant to such rules and regulations, these financial statements do not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. for complete financial statements. The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods. Such adjustments are considered to be of a normal recurring nature unless otherwise noted. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, ~~2019,~~2020, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, or for any future period. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of December 31, ~~2018~~2019 and ~~2017,~~2018, and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, included in our annual report on Form ~~10‑K~~10-K filed on February ~~19, 2019.~~18, 2020.

Accounting estimates—To prepare financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S., we must make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions, including those related to our allowance for ~~doubtful accounts,~~credit losses, allowance for excess and obsolete materials and supplies, ~~obsolescence, assets held for sale,~~ property and equipment, intangibles, leases, income taxes, contingencies, ~~share‑based~~share-based compensation and postemployment benefit plans. We base our estimates and assumptions on historical experience and other factors that we believe are reasonable. Actual results could differ from such estimates.

Fair value measurements—We estimate fair value at a price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the principal market for the asset or liability. Our valuation techniques require inputs that we categorize using a ~~three‑level~~three-level hierarchy, from highest to lowest level of observable inputs, as follows: (1) significant observable inputs, including unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets (“Level 1”), (2) significant other observable inputs, including direct or indirect market data for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or identical assets or liabilities in less active markets (“Level 2”) and (3) significant unobservable inputs, including those that require considerable judgment for which there is little or no market data (“Level 3”). When a valuation requires multiple input levels, we categorize the entire fair value measurement according to the lowest level of input that is significant to the measurement even though we may have also utilized significant inputs that are more readily observable.

Note 3—Accounting Standards ~~Updates~~Update

Recently adopted accounting standards

~~Leases~~Financial instruments – credit losses—Effective January 1, ~~2019,~~2020, we adopted the accounting standards update that requires ~~lessees~~entities to ~~recognize a right‑of‑use asset and lease liability~~estimate an expected lifetime credit loss on financial assets ranging from short-term trade accounts receivable to long-term financings. Our accounts receivable represent consideration earned for ~~virtually all leases and updates previous accounting standards~~performing services in various countries for lessors to align certain requirements with the updates to lessee accounting standards and revenue recognition accounting standards. We applied the transition method that required us to recognize right‑of‑use assets and lease liabilities as of the date of our adoption with no adjustment to prior periods. We applied the package of practical expedients that permitted us to carry forward historical lease classifications. For our drilling contracts, which contain a lease component, we applied the practical expedient to recognize revenues based on the service component, which we determined is predominant. As of January 1, 2019, for the finance leases under which we are the lessee, we reclassified to other assets $528 million, representing the unamortized right‑of‑use asset previously recorded in property and equipment, and we reclassified to other current liabilitiescustomers, including integrated oil companies, government-owned or government-controlled oil companies and other ~~long‑term liabilities $511 million, representing~~independent oil companies, the ~~remaining lease liability previously recorded in debt due within one year and debt. As~~majority of ~~January 1, 2019, for operating leases under~~ which ~~we are~~currently have corporate family investment grade credit ratings. We established procedures to apply the ~~lessee, we recorded a non‑cash adjustment to recognize an aggregate right‑of‑use asset~~requirements of $95 million, recorded in other assets, and a corresponding aggregate lease liability of $133 million, recorded in other current liabilities and other long‑term liabilities. We have accounted for lease and non‑lease components of our operating leases as a single component. We have not recognized right‑of‑use assets or lease liabilities for our short‑term leases. Our adoption did not have and is not expected in the future to have a material effect on our condensed consolidated statements of financial position, operations or cash flows. See Note 8—Leases.

~~Statements of equity~~—Effective January 1, 2019, we adopted the SEC’s final rule that requires a reconciliation of the changes in shareholders’ equity to be presented for the current and comparative quarter and year‑to‑date periods, together with subtotals for each interim period. The final rule permits the disclosure requirements to be made either in a separate financial statement or in a note to the financial statements.deficit. Our adoption did not have a material effect on our condensed consolidated statements of financial position, operations or cash flows or on the disclosures contained in our notes to condensed consolidated financial statements.

~~Recently issued accounting standards~~

~~Financial instruments – credit losses~~—Effective no later than January 1, 2020, we will adopt the accounting standards update that requires entities to estimate an expected lifetime credit loss on financial assets ranging from short-term trade accounts receivable to long-term financings. The update, which permits early adoption, is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We continue to evaluate the requirements and do not expect our adoption to have a material effect on our condensed consolidated statements of financial position, operations or cash flows or on the disclosures contained in our notes to condensed consolidated financial statements.

~~Overview~~

In the year ended December 31, 2018, we completed the acquisitions of Songa Offshore SE, a European public company limited by shares, or societas Europaea, existing under the laws of Cyprus (“Songa”) and Ocean Rig UDW Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company with limited liability (“Ocean Rig”).Investments—We hold investments in various partially owned, unconsolidated companies. In the three months ended March 31, ~~2018,~~2020 and 2019, we made an aggregate cash contribution of $6 million and $59 million, respectively, to Orion Holdings (Cayman) Limited (together with its subsidiary, “Orion”), a Cayman Islands company that, through its wholly owned subsidiary, owns the harsh environment floater Transocean Norge. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the aggregate carrying amount of our investment in ~~connection with the Songa acquisition, we incurred acquisition costs of $7~~Orion, representing a 33.0 percent ownership interest, was $166 million and $164 million, respectively, recorded in ~~general~~other assets using the equity

~~Consideration~~Related party transactions—~~To complete~~We engage in certain related party transactions with Orion under a management services agreement for the ~~Ocean Rig acquisition,~~operation and maintenance of the harsh environment floater Transocean Norge and marketing services agreement for the marketing of the rig. Prior to the rig’s placement into service, we ~~issued 147.7 million shares~~also engaged in certain related party transactions with Orion under a ~~per share market value~~shipyard care agreement for the construction of ~~$9.32, based on~~ the ~~market value of our shares on~~rig and other matters related to its completion and delivery. In the ~~acquisition date,~~three months ended March 31, 2020 and ~~made~~2019, we received an aggregate cash payment of ~~$1.2 billion.~~ $5 million and $13 million, respectively, primarily related to the commissioning, preparation and mobilization of Transocean Norge under the shipyard care agreement. We also lease the rig under a short- term bareboat charter agreement, which is now expected to expire in March 2021. In the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recognized and paid rent expense of $5 million, recorded in operating and maintenance costs, under the bareboat charter agreement. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had receivables of $35 million and $26 million, respectively, recorded in other current assets, and payables of $7 million and $9 million, respectively, recorded in other current liabilities, due from or to all unconsolidated affiliates.

Overview—The ~~aggregate fair value~~duration of our performance obligation varies by contract. As of March 31, 2020, the ~~consideration transferred~~drilling contract with the longest expected remaining duration, excluding unexercised options, extends through February 2028. To obtain contracts with our customers, we incur pre-operating costs to prepare a rig for contract and deliver or mobilize the rig to the drilling location. We defer such pre-operating costs and recognize the costs on a straight-line basis, consistent with the general pace of activity, in operating and maintenance costs over the ~~business combination~~estimated contract period. In the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we recognized pre-operating costs of $9 million and $2 million, respectively.

Impairments of assets held and used—During the ~~previously recognized gain on bargain purchase. As a result~~three months ended March 31, 2020, we identified indicators that the carrying amounts of ~~the acquisition, we recognized a cumulative net gain of $12 million associated with the bargain purchase, primarily due to the decline~~our asset groups may not be recoverable. Such indicators included recent significant declines in commodity prices and the market value of our ~~shares between~~stock, a reduction of expected demand for our drilling services as our customers announced reductions of capital investments in response to commodity prices and a reduction of projected dayrates. As a result of our testing, we determined that the ~~announcement date and~~carrying amount of our midwater floater was impaired. In the ~~closing date.~~three months ended March 31, 2020, we recognized a loss of $31 million ($0.05 per diluted share), which had 0 tax effect, associated with the impairment of our midwater floater. We ~~estimated~~measured the fair value of the ~~rigs and related equipment~~drilling unit in this asset group by applying ~~a combination of income and~~the market ~~approaches,~~approach, using ~~projected discounted cash flows and~~ estimates of the exchange price that would be received for the assets in the principal or most advantageous markets for the assets in an orderly transaction between participants as of the ~~acquisition~~measurement date. Our estimate of fair value required us to use significant other observable inputs, representative of a Level 2 fair value measurement, including the marketability of the rig and prices of comparable rigs that may be sold for scrap value.

Impairments of assets held for sale—In the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recognized an aggregate loss of $137 million ($136 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, net of tax), associated with the impairment of the harsh environment floaters Polar Pioneer and Songa Dee and the midwater floaters Sedco 711 and Sedco 714, along with related assets, which we determined were impaired at the time we classified the assets as held for sale. We measured the impairment of the drilling units and related assets as the amount by which the carrying amount exceeded the estimated fair value less costs to sell. We estimated the fair value of the ~~drilling contracts by~~

~~comparing the contractual dayrates over the remaining firm contract term and option periods relative to the projected market dayrates as of the acquisition date.

We have not completed our estimates of the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. We continue to review the estimated fair values of property and equipment, intangible assets, and other assets and liabilities, and to evaluate the assumed tax positions and contingencies. Our estimates of the fair value for such assets and liabilities require significant assumptions and judgment. Until we complete our evaluation, we may be required to adjust our original estimates, and such adjustments could be material.

~~Note 5—Unconsolidated Affiliates~~

We hold investments in various partially owned, unconsolidated companies, including a 33.0 percent ownership interest in Orion Holdings (Cayman) Limited (“Orion”), a Cayman Islands company formed to construct and own the newbuild harsh environment semisubmersible ~~Transocean Norge. We expect to operate~~ ~~Transocean Norge~~ ~~through one of our wholly owned subsidiaries, and the rig has been awarded a drilling contract that is expected to commence in July 2019. In the three months ended March 31, 2019, we made a~~ ~~$59~~ million cash contribution to Orion. We have agreed to contribute $33 million to Orion in January 2020. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the aggregate carrying amount of our investment in Orion was $150 million and $91 million, respectively, recorded in other assets.

~~Note 6—Revenues~~

~~Overview~~—The duration of our performance obligation varies by contract. As of March 31, 2019, the drilling contract with the longest expected remaining duration, excluding unexercised options, extends through February 2028. In the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, we recognized revenues of $10 million and $48 million, respectively, for performance obligations satisfied in previous periods, primarily related to revenues for a customer’s contract termination and certain revenues recognized on a cash basis.

To obtain contracts with our customers, we incur costs to prepare a rig for contract and deliver or mobilize a rig to the drilling location. We defer pre‑operating costs, including contract preparation and mobilization costs, and recognize such costs on a straight‑line basis, consistent with the general pace of activity, in operating and maintenance costs over the estimated firm period of drilling. In the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, we recognized costs of $2 million and $12 million, respectively, associated with pre‑operating costs for contracts with customers. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the unrecognized pre‑operating costs to obtain contracts was $3 million and $2 million, respectively, recorded in other assets.

Debt issuances

Priority guaranteed senior unsecured notes—On January 17, 2020, we issued $750 million aggregate principal amount of 8.00% senior unsecured notes due February 2027 (the “8.00% Senior Notes”), and we received aggregate cash proceeds of $743 million, net of issue costs. The 8.00% Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Transocean Ltd. and certain wholly owned subsidiaries of Transocean Inc. Such notes rank equal in right of payment to all of our existing and future unsecured unsubordinated obligations and rank structurally senior to the extent of the value of the assets of the subsidiaries guaranteeing the notes. We may redeem all or a portion of the 8.00% Senior Notes on or prior to February 1, 2023 at a price equal to 100 percent of the aggregate principal amount plus a make-whole provision, and subsequently, at specified redemption prices. The indenture that governs the 8.00% Senior Notes contains covenants that, among other things, limit our ability to incur certain liens on our drilling units without equally and ratably securing the notes, engage in certain sale and lease back transactions covering any of our drilling units, allow our subsidiaries to incur certain additional debt, and consolidate, merge or enter into a scheme of arrangement qualifying as an amalgamation.

Debt retirements

Redemption—On January 17, 2020, we provided a notice to redeem in full our outstanding 9.00% senior notes due July 2023 (the “9.00% Senior Notes”). On February 18, 2020, we made a payment of $767 million, including the make-whole provision, to redeem the ~~notes at a price equal to 100 percent of the aggregate principal amount, without a make whole provision, upon the occurrence of certain events related to the collateral rig~~9.00% Senior Notes, and the related drilling contract. The indenture that governs the 6.875% Senior Secured Notes contains covenants that limit the ability of our subsidiaries that own or operate the collateral rig to declare or pay dividends to their affiliates. The indenture also imposes a Maximum Collateral Ratio, represented by the net earnings of the rig relative to the debt balance, that changes over the term of the notes. Through December 31, 2020, the Maximum Collateral Ratio under the indenture is 5.75 to 1.00.

~~Note 11—Income Taxes~~

~~Tax provision and rate—In the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, our estimated annual effective tax rate, excluding~~2020, such discrete items ~~was (10.6) percent~~included the carryback of net operating losses in the U.S. as a result of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and ~~(42.8) percent, respectively, based~~Economic Security Act, which included the release of valuation allowances previously recorded, as well as settlements and expirations of various uncertain tax positions, gains and losses on ~~estimated annual income or loss before income taxes.~~currency exchange rates and changes in valuation allowances. In the three months ended March 31, 2019, such discrete items included losses on retirement of debt and changes in estimates related to taxes in prior years, as described below. In the three months ended March 31, 2018, such discrete items included acquisition costs. In the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2018, our effective tax rate increased primarily due to the increased tax expense related to the U.S. base erosion and anti‑abuse tax and changes in the relative blend of income from operations in certain jurisdictions and the loss before income taxes. Certain changes to our operating structures in the U.S. could reduce the effect of the base erosion and anti‑abuse tax in future periods.

We consider the tax effect, if any, of the excluded items noted below, as well as settlements of prior year tax estimates, to be discrete period tax expenses or benefits. In the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the effect of the various discrete period tax items was a net tax benefit of $25 million and $1 million, respectively. In the three months ended March 31, 2019, such discrete items were primarily related to the reversal of various uncertain tax provisions and adjustments to our valuation allowance. In the three months ended March 31, ~~2018, such discrete items were primarily related to the tax benefit of changes in unrecognized tax benefits associated with tax positions taken in prior years~~2020 and ~~remeasurement of the deferred tax assets for a tax rate change. For the three months ended March 31,~~ 2019, ~~and 2018,~~ our effective tax rate, ~~including these~~excluding discrete ~~tax~~ items, was (9.5) percent and ~~the excluded income and expense items noted above, was 4.5~~ p~~ercent and (42.2)~~(10.6) percent, respectively, based on ~~income or~~ loss before income tax expense.

Tax returns—Tax authorities in certain jurisdictions are examining our tax returns and, in some cases, have issued assessments. We are defending our tax positions in those jurisdictions. While we cannot predict or provide assurance as to the timing or the outcome of these proceedings, we do not expect the ultimate liability to have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated statement of financial position or results of operations, although it may have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.

Brazil tax investigations—In December 2005, the Brazilian tax authorities began issuing tax assessments with respect to our tax returns for the years 2000 through 2004. In January 2008, we filed a protest letter with the Brazilian tax authorities for these tax assessments, and we are currently engaged in the appeals process. In May 2014, the Brazilian tax authorities issued an additional tax assessment for the years 2009 and 2010, and in June 2014, we filed protests with the Brazilian tax authorities for these tax assessments. In ~~September~~the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2019, a portion of ~~one~~each of the two cases was favorably closed. As of March 31, ~~2019,~~2020, the remaining aggregate tax assessment was for BRL ~~657~~730 million, equivalent to approximately ~~$168~~$140 million, including penalties and interest. We believe our returns are materially correct as filed, and we are vigorously contesting these assessments. An unfavorable outcome on these proposed assessments could result in a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated statement of financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Other tax matters—We conduct operations through our various subsidiaries in countries throughout the world. Each country has its own tax regimes with varying nominal rates, deductions and tax attributes. From time to time, we may identify changes to previously evaluated tax positions that could result in adjustments to our recorded assets and liabilities. ~~It is reasonably possible that we may release certain liabilities for uncertain tax positions in the year ending December 31, 2019, primarily due to resolution of certain tax settlements.~~ Although we are unable to predict the outcome of ~~our tax positions,~~these changes, we do not expect the effect, if any, resulting from these adjustments to have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated statement of financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Legal proceedings

Macondo well incident—On April 22, 2010, the ~~ultra‑deepwater~~ultra-deepwater floater Deepwater Horizon sank after a blowout of the Macondo well caused a fire and explosion on the rig off the coast of Louisiana. At the time of the explosion, Deepwater Horizon was contracted to an affiliate of BP ~~plc (together with its affiliates, “BP”). Following the incident, we have been subject to~~plc. Most claims, both civil and criminal, ~~claims, as well as causes of action, fines and penalties by local, state and federal governments. Litigation commenced shortly after the incident, and most claims~~brought against us were consolidated by the U.S. Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation and transferred to the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana (the “MDL Court”)., a significant portion of which has now been resolved or is pending release of funds from escrow. We ~~recognized a liability for the remaining estimated loss contingencies associated with litigation resulting from the Macondo well incident that we believe are probable~~will vigorously defend against any actions not resolved by our previous settlements and ~~for which a reasonable estimate can be made.~~ pursue any and all defenses available.

At March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, the remaining liability for estimated loss contingencies that we believe are probable and for which a reasonable estimate can be made was ~~$158~~$124 million, recorded in other current liabilities, the majority of which is related to the settlement agreement that we and the Plaintiff Steering Committee ~~(the “PSC”)~~ filed with the MDL Court in May 2015 (the “PSC Settlement Agreement”)~~. A significant portion of the contingencies arising from the Macondo well incident has now been resolved or is pending release of funds from escrow. As for any actions not resolved~~, which was approved by ~~our previous settlements, including any claims by the 30 claimants who opted out of the PSC Settlement Agreement, we will vigorously defend those claims and pursue any and all defenses available.~~

~~On February 15, 2017,~~ the MDL Court ~~entered a final order and judgement approving the PSC Settlement Agreement.~~on February 15, 2017. Through the PSC Settlement Agreement, we agreed to pay a total of $212 million to be allocated between ~~two~~2 classes of plaintiffs in exchange for a release of all respective claims each class has against us. As required under the PSC Settlement Agreement, we deposited the settlement amount into an escrow account established by the MDL Court. ~~In November 2018, the MDL Court released $58 million from the escrow account as the first installment to the plaintiffs.~~ At March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, the remaining cash balance in the escrow account was ~~$156~~$125 million, recorded in restricted cash accounts and investments.

Asbestos litigation—In 2004, several of our subsidiaries were named, along with numerous other unaffiliated defendants, in complaints filed in the Circuit Courts of the State of Mississippi, and in 2014, a group of similar complaints were filed in Louisiana. The plaintiffs, former employees of some of the defendants, generally allege that the defendants used or manufactured asbestos containing drilling mud additives for use in connection with drilling operations, claiming negligence, products liability, strict liability and claims allowed under the Jones Act and general maritime law. The plaintiffs generally seek awards of unspecified compensatory and punitive damages, but the ~~court‑appointed~~court-appointed special master has ruled that a Jones Act employer defendant, such as us, cannot be sued for punitive damages. At March 31, ~~2019, nine~~2020, 9 plaintiffs have claims pending in Louisiana, in which we have or may have an interest. We intend to defend these lawsuits vigorously, although we can provide no assurance as to the outcome. We historically have maintained broad liability insurance, although we are not certain whether insurance will cover the liabilities, if any, arising out of these claims. Based on our evaluation of the exposure to date, we do not expect the liability, if any, resulting from these claims to have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated statement of financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

~~One~~NaN of our subsidiaries has been named as a defendant, along with numerous other companies, in lawsuits arising out of the subsidiary’s manufacture and sale of heat exchangers, and involvement in the construction and refurbishment of major industrial complexes alleging bodily injury or personal injury as a result of exposure to asbestos. As of March 31, ~~2019,~~2020, the subsidiary was a defendant in approximately ~~184~~201 lawsuits with a corresponding number of plaintiffs. For many of these lawsuits, we have not been provided sufficient information from the plaintiffs to determine whether all or some of the plaintiffs have claims against the subsidiary, the basis of any such claims, or the nature of their alleged injuries. The operating assets of the subsidiary were sold in 1989. In September 2018, the subsidiary and certain insurers agreed to a settlement of outstanding disputes that leaves the subsidiary with funding, including cash, annuities and coverage in place settlement, that we believe will be sufficient to respond to both the current lawsuits as well as future lawsuits of a similar nature. While we cannot predict or provide assurance as to the outcome of these matters, we do not expect the ultimate liability, if any, resulting from these claims to have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated statement of financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

~~Nigerian Cabotage Act litigation~~—In October 2007, three of our subsidiaries were each served a Notice and Demand from the Nigeria Maritime Administration and Safety Agency, imposing a two percent surcharge on the value of all contracts performed by us in Nigeria pursuant to the Coastal and Inland Shipping (Cabotage) Act 2003 (the “Cabotage Act”). Our subsidiaries each filed an originating summons in the Federal High Court in Lagos challenging the imposition of this surcharge on the basis that the Cabotage Act and associated levy is not applicable to drilling rigs. The respondents challenged the competence of the suits on several procedural grounds. The court upheld the objections and dismissed the suits. In December 2010, our subsidiaries filed a new joint Cabotage Act suit. While we cannot predict or provide assurance as to the outcome of these proceedings, we do not expect the proceedings to have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated statement of financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

~~Global Marine litigation~~—On November 28, 2017, Wilmington Trust Company, in its capacity as trustee, filed a lawsuit in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, against Global Marine Inc. (“Global Marine”), one of our wholly owned, indirect subsidiaries, seeking a declaratory judgment that Global Marine is in default under the indenture governing its $300 million of

outstanding 7.00% Notes due June 2028. We disagree with the assertions in the lawsuit and believe that Global Marine is in compliance with the indenture and has meritorious defenses against these allegations, although it can make no assurance regarding the outcome of the lawsuit, including the actual amount that would be due in the event that the lawsuit is successful. The notes are neither guaranteed by, nor recourse to, Transocean Ltd. or our other subsidiaries. The claimants seek payment prior to the scheduled maturity of the principal amount of notes outstanding and accrued but unpaid interest as well as make whole amounts under the indenture. In addition, the acceleration of the amounts due under the indenture could, absent our payment of the amounts due or otherwise staying any judgment therefrom, result in an event of default under our currently undrawn Secured Credit Facility. We intend to vigorously defend the lawsuit. While we cannot predict or provide assurance as to the outcome of these proceedings, we do not expect the proceedings to have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated statement of financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

~~Nigerian customer arbitration~~—One of our customers in Nigeria owes us approximately $80 million for drilling services performed in 2014 and 2015. The customer has not disputed the services rendered and we have remained engaged in discussions with the customer about collection of this overdue balance. In September 2018, we notified the customer of our intentions to enter into arbitration. We intend to vigorously pursue full recovery of this receivable. While we cannot predict or provide assurance as to its outcome, we do not expect it to have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated statement of financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Other matters—We are involved in various tax matters, various regulatory matters, and a number of claims and lawsuits, asserted and unasserted, all of which have arisen in the ordinary course of our business. We do not expect the liability, if any, resulting from these other matters to have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated statement of financial position, results of operations or cash flows. We cannot predict with certainty the outcome or effect of any of the litigation matters specifically described above or of any such other pending, threatened, or possible litigation or liability. We can provide no assurance that our beliefs or expectations as to the outcome or effect of any tax, regulatory, lawsuit or other litigation matter will prove correct and the eventual outcome of these matters could materially differ from management’s current estimates.

Environmental matters

We have certain potential liabilities under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (“CERCLA”) and similar state acts regulating cleanup of hazardous substances at various ~~hazardous~~ waste disposal sites, including those described below. CERCLA is intended to expedite the remediation of hazardous substances without regard to fault. Potentially responsible parties (“PRPs”) for each site include present and former owners and operators of, transporters to and generators of the substances at the site. It is difficult to quantify the potential cost of environmental matters and remediation obligations. Liability is strict and can be joint and several.

One of our subsidiaries ~~has been~~was named as a PRP in connection with a site located in Santa Fe Springs, California, known as the Waste Disposal, Inc. site. We and other PRPs agreed, under a participation agreement with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”) and the U.S. Department of Justice, to settle our potential liabilities by remediating the site. ~~Under a participation agreement,~~The remedial action for the ~~parties to the settlement~~site was completed ~~the required remediation, and we believe our~~in 2006. Our share ~~approximately eight percent,~~ of the ongoing ~~future operation~~operating and maintenance costs ishas been insignificant, and we do not ~~material. We have no reason to believe that~~expect any additional potential liabilities ~~for the site will~~to be material.

One of our subsidiaries has been ordered by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board (“CRWQCB”) to develop a testing plan for a site known as Campus 1000 Fremont in Alhambra, California, which is now a part of the San Gabriel Valley, Area 3, Superfund site. We were also advised that one or more of our subsidiaries that formerly owned and operated the site would likely be named as a PRP. The current property owner, an unrelated party, performed the required testing and detected no contaminants, and based on such results, we would contest any potential liability. In discussions with CRWQCB staff, we were advised of their intent to issue us a “no further action” letter, but it has not yet been received. We have no knowledge of the potential cost of any remediation, who else will be named as PRPs, and whether in fact any of our subsidiaries is a responsible party. The subsidiaries in question do not own any operating assets and have limited ability to respond to any liabilities.

Resolutions of other claims by the EPA, the involved state agency or PRPs are at various stages of investigation. ~~It is difficult to quantify the potential cost of environmental matters and remediation obligations.~~ Nevertheless, based on ~~the~~ available information, we do not expect the ultimate liability, if any, resulting from all environmental matters, ~~including the liability for all related pending legal proceedings, asserted legal claims~~ and known potential legal claims that are likely to be asserted, to have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated statement of financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Note ~~14—Equity~~

On January 30, 2018, we acquired an approximate 97.7 percent ownership interest in Songa. To complete the acquisition, we issued 66.9 million shares with a weighted average per share market value of $10.99 and $854 million aggregate principal amount of the Exchangeable Bonds.

On the date of the Songa acquisition, we recognized noncontrolling interest of $33 million, representing the estimated fair value of the 2.3 percent ownership interest not owned by us. On March 28, 2018, we acquired the remaining Songa shares through a compulsory acquisition under Cyprus law, and as a result, Songa became our wholly owned subsidiary. As consideration, we issued

1.1 million shares with a weighted average per share market value of $9.76 and $9 million aggregate principal amount of Exchangeable Bonds and we made an aggregate cash payment of $8 million to the Songa shareholders who elected to receive a cash payment or failed to make an election, for an aggregate fair value of $30 million.

We estimated the fair value of each class of financial instruments ~~for which estimating fair value is practicable,~~ by applying the following methods and assumptions:

Cash and cash equivalents—Our cash and cash equivalents are primarily invested in demand deposits, short-term time deposits and money market funds. The carrying amount of our cash and cash equivalents represents the historical cost, plus accrued ~~interest. Our cash equivalents are primarily invested in short‑term time deposits and money market funds.

Debt—The carrying amount of our debt represents the principal amount, net of unamortized discounts, premiums, debt issue costs and fair value adjustments. We measured the estimated fair value of our debt using significant other observable inputs, representative of a Level 2 fair value measurement, including the terms and credit spreads for the instruments.

Derivative instruments—The carrying amount of our derivative instruments represents the estimated fair value of such instruments.

Business

Transocean Ltd. (together with its subsidiaries and predecessors, unless the context requires otherwise, “Transocean”, “we,” “us” or “our”) is a leading international provider of offshore contract drilling services for oil and gas wells. As of April 23, ~~2019,~~2020, we owned or had partial ownership interests in and operated 4841 mobile offshore drilling units, including ~~31 ultra‑deepwater~~28 ultra-deepwater floaters, 1312 harsh environment floaters and ~~four~~one midwater ~~floaters. Additionally, as~~floater. As of April 23, ~~2019,~~2020, we were constructing ~~(i) four ultra‑deepwater drillships and (ii) one harsh environment semisubmersible, in which we hold a partial ownership interest.~~two ultra-deepwater drillships.

We provide contract drilling services in a single, global operating segment, which involves contracting our mobile offshore drilling fleet, related equipment and work crews primarily on a dayrate basis to drill oil and gas wells. We specialize in technically demanding regions of the offshore drilling business with a particular focus on ~~ultra‑deepwater~~ultra-deepwater and harsh environment drilling services. We believe our drilling fleet is one of the most versatile fleets in the world, consisting of drillships and semisubmersible floaters used in support of offshore drilling activities and offshore support services on a worldwide basis.

Our contract drilling services operations are geographically dispersed in oil and gas exploration and development areas throughout the world. Although rigs can be moved from one region to another, the cost of moving rigs and the availability of ~~rig‑moving~~rig-moving vessels may cause the supply and demand balance to fluctuate somewhat between regions. Still, significant variations between regions do not tend to persist long term because of rig mobility. Our fleet operates in a single, global market for the provision of contract drilling services. The location of our rigs and the allocation of resources to operate, build or upgrade our rigs are determined by the activities and needs of our customers.

Significant Events

Debt issuance—On ~~February 1, 2019,~~January 17, 2020, we issued ~~$550~~$750 million aggregate principal amount of ~~6.875%~~8.00% senior ~~secured~~unsecured notes due February 2027 (the ~~“6.875%~~“8.00% Senior ~~Secured~~ Notes”), and we received ~~approximately $538 million~~ aggregate cash proceeds of $743 million, net of ~~discount and~~ issue costs. See “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Sources and uses of liquidity.”

~~Debt tender offers~~Early debt retirement—~~During~~On January 17, 2020, we provided a notice to redeem in full our outstanding 9.00% senior notes due July 2023 (the “9.00% Senior Notes”). On February 18, 2020, we made a payment of $767 million, including the make-whole provision, to redeem the 9.00% Senior Notes, and in the three months ended March 31, ~~2019,~~2020, we completed cash tender offers to purchase certain notes (the “2019 Tendered Notes”). In the three months ended March 31, 2019, we made an aggregate cash payment of $521 million to settle the 2019 Tendered Notes and recognized a loss of ~~$18~~$65 million associated with the retirement of debt. See “—Operating Results” and “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—Sources and uses of liquidity.”

~~Dispositions—During~~In the three months ended March 31, ~~2019,~~2020, we ~~completed~~repurchased in the ~~sale~~open market $55 million aggregate principal amount of ~~two deepwater floaters~~certain of our debt securities. We made an aggregate cash payment of $46 million and ~~one midwater floater, along with related assets, for which we received $11 million in~~recognized an aggregate net ~~cash proceeds.~~gain of $8 million associated with the retirement of such debt. See “—Operating Results” and “—Liquidity and Capital Resources—~~Drilling fleet.~~Sources and uses of liquidity.”

Impairments—In the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recognized an aggregate loss of $137 million associated with the impairment of two harsh environment floaters and two midwater floaters, along with related assets, which we determined were impaired at the time we classified the assets as held for sale. See “—Operating Results.”

In the three months ended March 31, 2020, as a result of impairment testing, we determined that the remaining drilling rig and related assets in our midwater floater asset group were impaired, and we recognized a loss of $31 million associated with the impairment of these held and used assets. See “—Operating Results”.

Outlook

Drilling market—~~Our long‑~~For the last several quarters, the demand for our drilling services steadily increased and contract durations and dayrates substantially improved in all geographic market sectors. This momentum was interrupted by the economic disruption associated with the global outbreak of COVID-19, the significant decline of commodity prices spurred by production disputes among major oil-producing countries, and oil price declines subsequently exacerbated by concerns that global storage capacity would be inadequate to accommodate anticipated surpluses.

Actions taken by governmental authorities, nongovernmental organizations, businesses and individuals around the world to slow the COVID-19 pandemic and associated consumer behavior have negatively impacted forecasted global economic activity, thereby resulting in lower demand for crude oil. This has created a current and forecasted oversupply, precipitating the recent steep decline in oil prices and an increase in oil price volatility. As a result, many of our customers have reduced capital expenditures for the remainder of 2020 resulting in several previously sanctioned offshore projects being either delayed or cancelled. Additionally, some customers are deferring final investment decisions on certain pending projects in part, we speculate, because such projects may not provide satisfactory economic returns at current oil price levels. It is unclear how long these deferrals will persist. These actions have an adverse impact on our near-term market outlook.

Given the rapid pace of global developments with both the COVID-19 pandemic and the direct and indirect effect of production disputes among, and corrective actions taken by, major oil-producing countries, the extent to which the offshore drilling industry will be impacted is currently unclear. We anticipate that volatile market conditions will persist in the near term ~~view~~as these global developments evolve, and we believe that the challenging conditions are, at least in the near term, reversing the positive trends experienced in 2019, adversely affecting the demand for our services and increasing the risk of contract cancellations, renegotiations, early terminations and contract option

periods remaining unexercised. As the negative effects of these global events eventually subside, and oil prices improve and stabilize, we believe the long-term prospects of the offshore drilling floater market iswill be positive, especially for the highest specification vessels. ~~Brent oil prices have now exceeded $70 per barrel, recovering from~~The structural efficiency gains achieved by the ~~price declines that occurred in the fourth quarter of 2018, thus improving our customers’ economics for drilling~~offshore oil and gas ~~wells~~industry in the past five years have substantially improved the economics of offshore development projects, and ~~providing positive support for our customers’ activity for 2019 and beyond.

Over the past year, opportunities have continued to increase for our drilling services. In markets requiring harsh environment floating drilling rigs, such as the Norwegian and U.K. North Sea and eastern Canada, the limited supply of these specialized rigs has improved market conditions for the existing fleet and has resulted in the placement of several newbuild rigs at improving terms and conditions. Outside of harsh environment markets, the excess supply of marketed ultra‑deepwater floaters relative to demand is now decreasing, as utilization continues to improve and dayrates are now being positively impacted by improved contract activity. With the improved hydrocarbon supply‑demand balance, we expect that stability in oil prices will ultimately result in greater demand for ultra‑deepwater drilling rigs and further improvement of dayrates as utilization continues to tighten.

As of April 17, 2019, our contract backlog was $12.1 billion. The risks of drilling project delays, contract renegotiations and contract terminations and cancellations have diminished as oil prices have improved and stabilized.

Fleet status—We refer to the availability of our rigs in terms of the uncommitted fleet rate. The uncommitted fleet rate is defined as the number of uncommitted days divided by the total number of rig calendar days in the measurement period, expressed as a percentage. An uncommitted day is defined as a calendar day during which a rig is idle or stacked, is not contracted to a customer and is not committed to a shipyard. The uncommitted fleet rates exclude the effect of priced options. As of April ~~17, 2019,~~16, 2020, the uncommitted fleet rates for the remainder of ~~2019~~2020 and each of the four years in the period ending December 31, ~~2023~~2024 were as follows:

Performance and Other Key Indicators

Contract backlog—Contract backlog is defined as the maximum contractual operating dayrate multiplied by the number of days remaining in the firm contract period, excluding revenues for mobilization, demobilization, contract preparation, other incentive provisions or reimbursement revenues, which are not expected to be significant to our contract drilling revenues. The contract backlog represents the maximum contract drilling revenues that can be earned considering the contractual operating dayrate in effect during the firm contract period and represents the basis for the maximum revenues in our revenue efficiency measurement. To determine maximum revenues for purposes of calculating revenue efficiency, however, we include the revenues earned for mobilization, demobilization and contract preparation, other incentive provisions or cost escalation provisions, which are excluded from the amounts presented for contract backlog.period. The contract backlog for our fleet was as follows:

The contractual operating dayrate may be higher than the actual dayrate we ultimately receive or an alternative contractual dayrate, such as a ~~waiting‑on‑~~waiting on weather rate, repair rate, standby rate or force majeure rate, may apply under certain circumstances. The contractual operating dayrate may also be higher than the actual dayrate we ultimately receive because of a number of factors, including rig downtime or suspension of operations. In certain contracts, the dayrate may be reduced to zero if, for example, repairs extend beyond a stated period of time.

The outbreak of COVID-19 and the recent precipitous drop in oil prices could have significant adverse consequences for the financial condition of our customers and suppliers. This may result in contract cancellations, early terminations, customers seeking price reductions or more favorable economic terms, a reduced ability to ultimately collect receivables, or entry into lower dayrate contracts or having to idle, stack or retire more of our rigs.

Average daily revenue—Average daily revenue is defined as contract drilling revenues, excluding revenues for contract terminations, reimbursements and ~~reimbursements,~~contract intangible amortization, earned per operating day. An operating day is defined as a calendar day during which a rig is contracted to earn a dayrate during the firm contract period after commencement of operations. The average daily revenue for our fleet was as follows:

Our total fleet average daily revenue is also affected by the mix of rig classes being operated, as deepwater floaters, midwater floaters and ~~high‑~~high specification jackups are typically contracted at lower dayrates compared to ~~ultra‑deepwater~~ultra-deepwater floaters and harsh environment floaters. We no longer operate deepwater floaters or ~~high‑specification~~high-specification jackups. We include newbuilds in the calculation when the rigs commence operations upon acceptance by the customer.

Revenue efficiency—Revenue efficiency is defined as actual contract drilling revenues, excluding revenues for contract terminations and reimbursements, for the measurement period divided by the maximum revenue calculated for the measurement period, expressed as a percentage. Maximum revenue is defined as the greatest amount of contract drilling revenues, excluding revenues for contract terminations and reimbursements, the drilling unit could earn for the measurement period, excluding amounts related to incentive provisions. The revenue efficiency rates for our fleet were as follows:

Revenue efficiency measures our ability to ultimately convert our contractual opportunities into revenues. Our revenue efficiency rate varies due to revenues earned under alternative contractual dayrates, such as a ~~waiting‑on‑~~waiting on weather rate, repair rate, standby rate, force majeure rate or zero rate, that may apply under certain circumstances. Our revenue efficiency rate is also affected by incentive performance bonuses or penalties. We include newbuilds in the calculation when the rigs commence operations upon acceptance by the customer. We exclude rigs that are not operating under contract, such as those that are stacked.

Rig utilization—Rig utilization is defined as the total number of operating days divided by the total number of rig calendar days in the measurement period, expressed as a percentage. The rig utilization rates for our fleet were as follows:

Our rig utilization rate declines as a result of idle and stacked rigs and during shipyard and mobilization periods to the extent these rigs are not earning revenues. We include newbuilds in the calculation when the rigs commence operations upon acceptance by the customer. We remove rigs from the calculation upon disposal, or classification as held for sale. Accordingly, our rig utilization can increase when idle or stacked units are removed from our drilling fleet.

the fully redeemed 9.00% Senior Notes. Partially offsetting the loss, we recognized an aggregate net gain of $8 million associated with the retirement of $55 million aggregate principal amount of our debt securities repurchased in the open market.

Other expenses, net, decreased in the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2018, primarily related to a $15 million decreased loss resulting from currency exchange, primarily related to derivative instruments acquired in the Songa acquisition in the prior‑year period.

Income tax expense—In the three months ended March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018,~~2019, our effective tax rate was ~~4.5~~1.1 percent and ~~(42.2)~~4.5 percent, respectively, based on loss before income tax ~~expense.~~benefit. In the three months ended March 31, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018,~~2019, the effect of ~~the~~ various discrete period tax items was a net tax benefit of $20 million and $25 million, respectively. In the three months ended March 31, 2020, such discrete items included the carryback of net operating losses in the U.S. as a result of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and ~~$1 million, respectively.~~Economic Security Act which included the release of valuation allowances previously recorded, as well as settlements and expirations of various uncertain tax positions, gains and losses on currency exchange rates and changes in valuation allowances. In the three months ended March 31, 2019, such discrete items ~~were related to various items, including reversals~~included the reversal of various uncertain tax ~~positions~~provisions and ~~changes in the~~adjustments to our valuation ~~allowance related to deferred tax assets.~~allowance. In the three months ended March 31, ~~2018, such discrete items were primarily related to the tax benefit of changes in unrecognized tax benefits associated with tax positions taken in prior years~~2020 and ~~remeasurement of the deferred tax assets for a tax rate change. In the three months ended March 31,~~ 2019, ~~and 2018,~~ our effective tax rate, excluding discrete items, was ~~(10.6)~~(9.5) percent and ~~(42.8)~~(10.6) percent, respectively, based on loss before income tax expense. In the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2018, our effective tax rate increased primarily due to the increased tax expense related to the U.S. base erosion and anti‑abuse tax and changes in the relative blend of income from operations in certain jurisdictions and the loss before income taxes. Certain changes to our operating structures in the U.S. could reduce the effect of the base erosion and anti‑abuse tax in future periods.

Due ~~to factors related~~ to our operating activities and organizational structure, our income tax expense does not change proportionally with our income before income taxes. Significant decreases in our income before income taxes typically lead to higher effective tax rates, while significant increases in income before income taxes can lead to lower effective tax rates, subject to the other factors impacting income tax expense noted above. With respect to the effective tax rate calculation for the three months ended March 31, ~~2019,~~2020, a significant portion of our income tax expense was generated in countries in which income taxes are imposed on gross revenues, with the most significant of these countries being Angola and India. Conversely, the countries in which we incurred the most significant income taxes during this period that were based on income before income tax include the U.S., Switzerland, and the U.K. ~~and the U.S.~~ Our rig operating structures further complicate our tax calculations, especially in instances where we have more than one operating structure for the taxing jurisdiction and, thus, more than one method of calculating taxes depending on the operating structure utilized by the rig under the contract. For example, two rigs operating in the same country could generate significantly different provisions for income taxes if they are owned by two different subsidiaries that are subject to differing tax laws and regulations in the respective country of incorporation.

Sources and uses of liquidity

Overview—We expect to use existing unrestricted cash balances, internally generated cash flows, borrowings under the ~~Senior~~Secured Credit Facility, ~~as defined below,~~ proceeds from the disposal of assets or proceeds from the issuance of additional debt to fulfill anticipated obligations, which may include capital expenditures, working capital and other operational requirements, scheduled debt maturities or other payments. We may also consider establishing additional financing arrangements with banks or other capital providers. Subject to market conditions and other factors, we may also be required to provide collateral for future financing arrangements. In each case subject to then existing market conditions and to our ~~then~~ expected liquidity needs, among other factors, we may continue to use a portion of our cash on hand, internally generated cash flows and proceeds from asset sales to reduce debt prior to scheduled maturities through debt repurchases, either in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, or through debt redemptions or tender offers.

The effects of the COVID-19 outbreak and the recent oil price decline could have significant adverse consequences for general economic, financial and business conditions, as well as for our business and financial position and the business and financial position of our customers and suppliers and may, among other things, impact our ability to generate cash flows from operations, access the capital markets on acceptable terms or at all, and affect our future need or ability to borrow under our Secured Credit Facility. In addition to our potential sources of funding, the effects of such global events may impact our liquidity or need to alter our allocation or sources of capital, implement further cost reduction measures and change our financial strategy. Although the COVID-19 outbreak and the recent oil price decline could have a broad range of effects on our sources and uses of liquidity, the ultimate effect thereon, if any, will depend on future developments, which cannot be predicted at this time.

Our access to debt and equity markets may be limited due to a variety of events, including, among others, credit rating agency downgrades of our debt ratings, industry conditions, general economic conditions, market conditions and market perceptions of us and our industry. The rating of our ~~non‑credit~~non-credit enhanced senior unsecured ~~long‑term~~long-term debt (“Debt Rating”) is below investment grade. Such Debt Rating has caused us to experience increased fees and interest rates under agreements governing certain of our senior notes. Further downgrades may affect or limit our ability to access debt markets in the future. Our ability to access such markets may be severely restricted at a time when we would like, or need, to access such markets, which could have an impact on our flexibility to react to changing economic and business conditions. An economic downturn could have an impact on the lenders participating in our credit facilities or on our customers, causing them to fail to meet their obligations to us.

Our internally generated cash flows are directly related to our business and the market sectors in which we operate. We have generated positive cash flows from operating activities over recent years and, ~~while~~although we cannot provide assurances, we currently expect that such cash flows will continue to be positive over the next year. However, among other factors, if the drilling market deteriorates, or if we experience poor ~~operational~~operating results, or if we incur expenses to, for example, reactivate, stack or otherwise assure the marketability of our fleet, cash flows from operations may be reduced or negative.

~~Business combinations~~—On January 30, 2018, we acquired an approximate 97.7 percent ownership interest in Songa. On March 28, 2018, we acquired the remaining shares not owned by us through a compulsory acquisition under Cyprus law, and as a result, Songa became our wholly owned subsidiary. To complete these transactions, we issued 68.0 million shares as partial consideration for the acquisition of Songa shares. Additionally, we issued $863 million aggregate principal amount of 0.50% exchangeable senior bonds due January 30, 2023 (the “Exchangeable Bonds”) as partial consideration for the acquisition of Songa shares and partial settlement of

On December 5, 2018, we acquired Ocean Rig in a merger transaction, and as a result, Ocean Rig became our wholly owned subsidiary. To complete the acquisition, we issued 147.7 million shares and made an aggregate cash payment of $1.2 billion.

Secured Credit Facility—In June 2018, we entered into a bank credit agreement, which established a $1.0 billion secured revolving credit facility (the “Secured Credit Facility”), ~~which~~and in May, July, September and December 2019, we amended the terms of the Secured Credit Facility to, among other changes, increase the borrowing capacity to $1.3 billion and add to and clarify the lender parties and their respective commitments under the facility. The Secured Credit Facility is scheduled to expire on ~~the earlier of (i)~~ June 22, ~~2023 and (ii) if greater than $300 million aggregate principal amount of our 9.00% senior notes due July 2023 remain outstanding in April 2023, such date.~~2023. The Secured Credit Facility is ~~initially~~guaranteed by Transocean Ltd. and certain subsidiaries. The Secured Credit Facility is secured by, among other things, a lien on the ~~ultra‑deepwater~~ultra-deepwater floaters Deepwater Asgard, Deepwater Invictus, Deepwater Orion, Deepwater Skyros, Dhirubhai Deepwater KG2 andDiscoverer Inspiration and the harsh environment floatersTransocean Barentsand Transocean Spitsbergen. The Secured Credit Facility contains covenants that, among other things, include maintenance of certain guarantee and collateral coverage ratios, a maximum debt to capitalization ratio of 0.60 to 1.00 and minimum liquidity of $500 million. The Secured Credit Facility also restricts the ability of Transocean Ltd. and certain of our subsidiaries to, among other things, merge, consolidate or otherwise make changes to the corporate structure, incur liens, incur additional indebtedness, enter into transactions with affiliates and pay dividends and other distributions. In order to borrow under the Secured Credit Facility, we must, at the time of the borrowing request, not be in default under the ~~bank credit agreement~~Secured Credit Facility and make certain representations and warranties, including with respect to compliance with laws and solvency, to the lenders. Repayment of borrowings under the Secured Credit Facility are subject to acceleration upon the occurrence of an event of default.

A default under our public debt indentures, the agreements governing our senior secured notes, our finance lease contract or any other debt owed to unaffiliated entities that exceeds $125 million could trigger a default under the Secured Credit Facility and, if not waived by the lenders, could cause us to lose access to the Secured Credit ~~Facility (see Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 9—Debt and Note 13—Contingencies—Global Marine litigation).~~Facility. At April 23, ~~2019,~~2020, we had no borrowings outstanding, ~~$25~~$7 million of letters of credit issued, and we had ~~$1.0~~$1.3 billion of available borrowing capacity under the Secured Credit Facility.

We intend to fund any repurchases using available cash balances and cash from operating activities. The share repurchase program could be suspended or discontinued by our board of directors or company management, as applicable, at any time. We may decide, based ~~upon~~on our ongoing capital requirements, the price of our shares, regulatory and tax considerations, cash flow generation, the amount and duration of our contract backlog, general market conditions, debt rating considerations and other factors, that we should retain cash, reduce debt, make capital investments or acquisitions or otherwise use cash for general corporate purposes. Decisions regarding the amount, if any, and timing of any share repurchases will be made from time to time based ~~upon~~on these factors. Any repurchased shares under the share repurchase program would be held by us for cancellation by the shareholders at a future general meeting of shareholders.

Drilling fleet

Expansion—From time to time, we review possible acquisitions of businesses and drilling rigs and may make significant future capital commitments for such purposes. We may also consider investments related to major rig upgrades, new rig construction, or the acquisition of a rig under construction. We may commit to such investment without first obtaining customer contracts. Any acquisition, upgrade or new rig construction could involve the payment by us of a substantial amount of cash or the issuance of a substantial number of additional shares or other securities. Our failure to secure drilling contracts for rigs under construction could have an adverse effect on our results of operations or cash flows.

In connection with the Songa acquisition, we acquired seven mobile offshore drilling units, including five harsh environment floaters and two midwater floaters. In connection with the Ocean Rig acquisition, we acquired 11 mobile offshore drilling units, including nine ultra‑deepwater floaters and two harsh environment floaters and the contracts relating to the construction of two ultra‑deepwater drillships. See Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 4—Business Combinations.

~~We hold a 33.0 percent interest in Orion, the company that is constructing and owns the newbuild harsh environment semisubmersible~~ ~~Transocean Norge~~. The Moss Maritime CS60 design is considered among the most capable newbuild semisubmersibles in the world. In the three months ended March 31, 2019 and the year ended December 31, 2018, we made a cash contribution of $59 million and $91 million, respectively, to Orion. We expect to operate the rig, through one of our wholly owned subsidiaries, under a

~~Ocean Rig Santorini~~ ~~and~~ ~~Ocean Rig Crete~~Deepwater Atlas, two ultra‑deepwater drillships under construction at Samsung Heavy Industries Co., Ltd. shipyard in South Korea, do not yet have drilling contracts and are expected to be delivered in the fourth quarter of 2019 and the third quarter of 2020, respectively. Upon delivery of ~~Ocean Rig Santorini~~ ~~and~~ ~~Ocean Rig Crete~~, the remaining obligations to the shipyard are expected to be $360 million and $520 million, respectively, and are included in the above table. The shipyard agreed to finance the expected remaining obligations at an ~~interest rate of three percent per annum, payable semiannually, with principal due at maturity in June 2023 and January 2024, respectively. Following delivery of~~ ~~Ocean Rig Santorini~~ ~~and~~ ~~Ocean Rig Crete, we have included estimated costs of $30 million to mobilize the rig to a location where it may be placed in service.~~

~~Our unnamed ultra‑deepwater~~ultra-deepwater drillship under construction at the Jurong Shipyard Pte Ltd. in Singapore does not yet have a drilling contract and is ~~expected~~contracted to be delivered in the fourth quarter of 2020. ~~Following~~We have estimated that, following the delivery of Deepwater Atlas, the ~~unnamed ultra‑deepwater drillship, we have included estimated~~ costs ~~of $40 million~~ to mobilize the rig to a location where it may be placed into service will be $40 million and have included such estimated costs in ~~service.~~

~~Our unnamed ultra‑deepwater~~Deepwater Titan, an ultra-deepwater drillship under construction at the Jurong Shipyard Pte Ltd. in Singapore, is expected to commence operations under its drilling contract in the ~~first~~fourth quarter of ~~2022.~~2021. The projected capital additions include estimates for an upgrade for two 20,000 pounds per square inch blowout preventers and other equipment required by our ~~customer, Chevron.~~

customer.

The ultimate amount of our capital expenditures is partly dependent upon financial market conditions, the actual level of operational and contracting activity, the costs associated with the current regulatory environment and customer requested capital improvements and equipment for which the customer agrees to reimburse us. As with any major shipyard project that takes place over an extended period of time, the actual costs, the timing of expenditures and the project completion date may vary from estimates based on numerous factors, including actual contract terms, weather, exchange rates, shipyard labor conditions, availability of suppliers to recertify equipment and the market demand for components and resources required for drilling unit construction. We intend to fund the cash requirements relating to our capital expenditures through available cash balances, cash generated from operations and asset sales and financing arrangements with banks or other capital providers. We also have available credit under our Secured Credit Facility (see “—Sources and uses of liquidity”). Economic conditions could impact the availability of these sources of funding.

Dispositions—From time to time, we may also review the possible disposition of ~~non‑strategic~~non-strategic drilling units. Considering recent market conditions, we have committed to plans to sell certain ~~lower‑specification~~lower-specification drilling units for scrap value. During the three months ended March 31, ~~2019,~~2020, we identified ~~two~~four such drilling units that we intend to sell for scrap value. During the year ended December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, we identified ~~eight~~six such drilling units that we ~~have~~ sold ~~or intend to sell~~ for scrap value. We continue to evaluate the drilling units in our fleet and may identify additional lower specification drilling units to be sold for scrap value. During the ~~three months~~year ended ~~March~~December 31, 2019, we completed the sale of six ultra-deepwater floaters, one harsh environment floater, two deepwater floaters and ~~one~~two midwater ~~floater,~~floaters, along with related assets, and we received net cash proceeds of ~~$11~~$64 million. ~~During the year ended December 31, 2018, we completed the sale~~

Other Matters

Regulatory matters

From time to time, we receive inquiries from governmental regulatory agencies regarding our operations around the world, including inquiries with respect to various tax, environmental, regulatory and compliance matters. To the extent appropriate under the circumstances, we investigate such matters, respond to such inquiries and cooperate with the regulatory agencies. See Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements—Note ~~13—~~10—Contingencies.

Tax matters

We conduct operations through our various subsidiaries in countries throughout the world. Each country has its own tax regimes with varying nominal rates, deductions and tax attributes. From time to time, we may identify changes to previously evaluated tax positions

~~- 26 -~~

~~Table of Contents~~

that could result in adjustments to our recorded assets and liabilities. Although we are unable to predict the outcome of these changes, we do not expect the effect, if any, resulting from these adjustments to have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated statement of financial position, results of operations or cash flows. We file federal and local tax returns in several jurisdictions throughout the world. Tax authorities in certain jurisdictions are examining our tax returns and in some cases have issued assessments. We are defending our tax positions in those jurisdictions. While we cannot predict or provide assurance as to the final outcome of these proceedings, we do not expect the ultimate liability to have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated statement of financial position or results of operations, although it may have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated cash flows. See Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements—Note ~~11—~~8—Income Taxes.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in our annual report on Form ~~10‑K~~10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2018.~~2019. We have discussed the development, selection and disclosure of these critical accounting policies and estimates with the audit committee of our board of directors. As of March 31, ~~2019,~~2020 there have been no material changes to the types of judgments, assumptions and estimates upon which our critical accounting policies and estimates are based.

(together with its subsidiaries and predecessors, unless the context requires otherwise, “Transocean,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) has certain actions, claims and other matters pending as discussed and reported in “Part II. Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note ~~13—~~15—Commitments and Contingencies” and “Part II. Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Other Matters—Regulatory ~~matters—Consent Decree”~~matters” in our annual report on Form ~~10‑K~~10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2018.~~2019. We are also involved in various tax matters as described in “Part II. Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data—Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note ~~10—~~12—Income Taxes” and in “Part II. Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Other Matters—Tax matters” in our annual report on Form ~~10‑K~~10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2018.~~2019. All such actions, claims, tax and other matters are incorporated herein by reference.

As of March 31, ~~2019,~~2020, we were also involved in a number of other lawsuits, claims and disputes, which have arisen in the ordinary course of our business and for which we do not expect the liability, if any, to have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated ~~statement of~~ financial position, results of operations or cash flows. We cannot predict with certainty the outcome or effect of any of the matters referred to above or of any such other pending or threatened litigation or legal proceedings. There can be no assurance that our beliefs or expectations as to the outcome or effect of any lawsuit or claim or dispute will prove correct and the eventual outcome of these matters could materially differ from management’s current estimates.

In addition to the legal proceedings described above, we may from time to time identify other matters that we monitor through our compliance program or in response to events arising generally within our industry and in the markets where we do business. We evaluate matters on a case by case basis, investigate allegations in accordance with our policies and cooperate with applicable governmental authorities. Through the process of monitoring and proactive investigation, we strive to ensure no violation of our policies, Code of Integrity or law has, or will, occur; however, there can be no assurance as to the outcome of these matters.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors

~~Item 1A.Risk Factors~~

~~There~~Except as disclosed below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors as previously disclosed in “Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form ~~10‑K~~10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2018.~~2019; however, the potential effects of the recent outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) discussed below could potentially also impact many of such previously disclosed risk factors.

Public health threats could have significant adverse consequences for our business and operations.

Public health threats, pandemics and epidemics, such as the recent outbreak of COVID-19, severe influenza, other coronaviruses and other highly communicable viruses or diseases, may impact our operations directly or indirectly, including by disrupting the operations of our business partners, suppliers and customers in ways that could adversely impact our operations. For instance, the recent outbreak of COVID-19 and its development into a pandemic in March 2020 have resulted in various actions by governmental authorities around the world to prevent the spread of COVID-19, such as imposing mandatory closures of all non-essential business facilities, seeking voluntary closures of such facilities and imposing restrictions on, or advisories with respect to, travel, business operations and public gatherings or interactions. In addition, the risk of infection and health risk associated with COVID-19, and the death or illness of many individuals across the globe, is resulting in actions by individuals and companies seeking to curtail the spread of COVID-19, such as companies across the world requiring employees to work remotely, suspending all non-essential travel worldwide for employees, and discouraging employee attendance at in-person work-related meetings, as well as individuals voluntarily social distancing and self-quarantining.

We have taken similar precautionary measures intended to help minimize the risk to our business, employees, customers, suppliers and the communities in which we operate. Our operational employees generally are currently still able to work on site and on our rigs. We have taken comprehensive and global precautionary measures with respect to such operational employees, such as requiring them to verify they have not either experienced any symptoms consistent with COVID-19 or been in close contact with someone showing such symptoms before they are permitted to travel to the work site or rig, quarantining any operational employee on a rig who has shown signs of COVID-19, regardless of whether such employee has been confirmed to be infected, and imposing social distancing requirements in certain areas of the rig, such as in the dining hall and sleeping quarters and are incurring incremental costs. We are also actively assessing and planning for various operational contingencies; however, we cannot guarantee that any actions taken by us, including the precautionary measures noted above, will be effective in preventing either an outbreak of COVID-19 on one or more of our rigs or other adverse effects related to COVID-19. To the extent there is an outbreak of COVID-19 on one or more of our rigs, we may have to temporarily shut down operations of such rig or rigs, which could result in significant downtime or contract termination and have substantial adverse consequences for our business and results of operations. In addition, most of our non-operational employees are now working remotely, which increases various operational risks. For instance, working remotely may increase the risk of security breaches or other cyber incidents or attacks, loss of data, fraud and other disruptions as a consequence of more employees accessing sensitive and critical information from remote locations.

Many governmental authorities across the globe have implemented travel restrictions and mandatory quarantine measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19, and in complying with such governmental actions, we have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, increased difficulties, delays and costs in moving our personnel in and out of, and to work in, the various jurisdictions in which we operate. We may be unable to pass along these increased expenses to our customers. Additionally, disruptions to or restrictions on the

ability of our suppliers, manufacturers and service providers to supply parts, equipment or services in the jurisdictions in which we operate or to progress the construction of our newbuild projects, whether as a result of government actions, labor shortages, the inability to source parts or equipment from affected locations, or other effects related to the COVID-19 outbreak, may have significant adverse consequences on our ability to meet our commitments to customers, including by increasing our operating costs and increasing the risk of rig downtime and could result in contract terminations.

The magnitude and duration of potential social, economic and labor instability resulting from the recent COVID-19 outbreak is uncertain and cannot be estimated at this time as such effects depend on future events that are largely out of our control.

The recent outbreak of COVID-19 has had, and may continue to have, significant adverse consequences for general economic, financial and business conditions, as well as for our business and financial position and the business and financial position of our customers and suppliers

The recent outbreak of COVID-19 and the responses of governmental authorities, companies and the self-imposed restrictions by many individuals across the world to stem the spread of the virus have significantly reduced global economic activity, as there has been a dramatic decrease in the number of businesses open for operation and a substantial reduction in the number of people across the world that have been going to work or leaving their house to purchase goods and services. This has also resulted in airlines dramatically cutting back on flights and has reduced the number of cars on the road. As a result, there has also been a sharp reduction in the demand for oil and a precipitous decline in oil prices, and such decline in oil prices has been exacerbated by the recent dispute over production levels among oil-producing countries, the resultant significant increase in production levels by such countries and limited storage capacity for crude oil and refined products.

Concerns over the prolonged negative effects of the COVID-19 outbreak on economic and business prospects across the world have contributed to increased market and oil price volatility and have diminished expectations for the performance of the global economy. These factors, coupled with the prospect of decreased business and consumer confidence and increased unemployment resulting from the COVID-19 outbreak and the recent precipitous oil price decline, have precipitated an economic slowdown and likely a recession. Any such slowdown or recession, or a prolonged period of depressed oil prices, could have significant adverse consequences for the financial condition of our customers or suppliers, and result in reductions to their drilling and production expenditures and delays or cancellations of projects, thus decreasing demand for our services. Such conditions could also result in an increased risk that our customers may seek price reductions or more favorable economic terms for our services, terminate our contracts or otherwise be unable to timely pay outstanding receivables owed to us, or could result in us having to enter into lower dayrate contracts or to idle, stack or retire more of our rigs. Additionally, any early termination payment made in connection with an early contract termination may not fully compensate us for the loss of the contract. Accordingly, the actual amount of revenues earned may be substantially lower than the backlog reported. To the extent our suppliers experience a deterioration in financial condition or operational capability as a result of such depressed market and industry conditions or we or other suppliers incur delays in moving personnel to and from drilling rigs, we may experience disruptions in supply, which could increase our operating costs and increase rig downtime. The occurrence of any such events with respect to our customers, contracts or suppliers could have significant adverse consequence for our business and financial position.

The ultimate extent of the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on our business and financial position will depend largely on future developments, including the duration, spread or containment of the outbreak, particularly within the geographic locations where we operate, and the related impact on overall economic activity, all of which are highly uncertain at this time. We believe, for example, depressed market and industry conditions could place significant pressure on the liquidity and solvency of many offshore drilling contractors, leading them to pursue restructuring transactions. We are unable to predict the timing or impact of any such restructurings, if completed, on the capital structure and competitive dynamics among offshore drilling companies.
