Vantage Drilling Company, has challenged reports alleging that the arrest of a former Petrobras International Director was tied in some way to the Company’s contract with Petrobras for the Titanium Explorer. “Several hundred contracts were signed by this former Director, which in Vantage’s case, was after the parent board of Petrobras had approved the contract,” said Paul Bragg, Chairman and CEO of Vantage. Vantage is fully performing under the contract and found no evidence that would substantiate any allegation of improper activity by Vantage in connection with the award of the contract.
Paul Bragg additionally commented, “Vantage has always been committed to conducting itself in accordance with the highest standards of business ethics. We do not believe that any inappropriate act was committed by any personnel associated with Vantage. Although we are disappointed that recent news reports have suggested that a former Petrobras International Director was arrested on the suspicion of some form of wrongdoing associated with Vantage, in addition to with other companies contracted to Petrobras, we are confident that any suggestion is without merit as it relates to Vantage.”
