Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]

Note 5 - Contracts with Customers
Contract Assets and Liabilities

When the right to consideration becomes unconditional based on the contractual billing schedule, accrued revenue is recognized. At the point that accrued revenue is billed, trade accounts receivable are recognized. Payment terms on invoice amounts are typically 30 days.

Deferred mobilization, demobilization and contract preparation revenue includes revenues received for rig mobilization as well as preparation and upgrade activities, in addition to demobilization revenues expected to be received upon contract commencement and other lump-sum revenues relating to the firm periods of our contracts. These revenues are allocated to the overall performance obligation and recognized on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the contracts.
The following presents our contract assets and liabilities from our contracts with customers:

Contract Costs

Deferred mobilization and contract preparation costs relate to costs incurred to prepare a rig for contract and delivery or to mobilize a rig to the drilling location. We defer pre‑operating costs, such as contract preparation and mobilization costs, and recognize such costs on a straight‑line basis, over the estimated firm period of the drilling contract. Costs incurred for the demobilization of rigs at contract completion are recognized as incurred during the demobilization period.

Current deferred mobilization and contract preparation costs 38.4 17.2 
Non-current deferred mobilization and contract preparation costs (1)
