Seadrill delisted as pandemic slows business

- From staff and wire reports

Offshore drilling contractor Seadrill is trading as a penny stock after being voluntaril­y delisted from the New York Stock Exchange.

The company’s stock began trading below $1 per share in March, triggering a delisting warning. Due to the impact of the coronaviru­s pandemic on the offshore drilling industry, Seadrill’s board decided to withdraw the company’s stock. Seadrill is headquarte­red in Bermuda with its principal offices in Houston. It laid off 135 employees earlier this month after one of its drillships in the Gulf of Mexico completed a contract and could not find other work.
