Good morning, everyone. Welcome to Noble Corporation’s Second Quarter 2022 Earnings Conference Call. We appreciate your continued interest in the company. You can find a copy of our earnings report issued yesterday evening, along with the supporting statements and schedules in our website at noblecorp.com.
Joining me today are Robert Eifler, President and Chief Executive Officer and Richard Barker, our Senior Vice President and CFO. Also joining on the call are Blake Denton, Vice President, Marketing and Contracts; and Joey Kawaja, Vice President of Operations. For today’s call, we will begin with prepared remarks, followed by Q&A.
During the course of this call, we may make certain forward-looking statements regarding various matters related to our business and companies that are not historical facts. Such statements are based on current expectations and assumptions of management and are therefore subject to certain risks and uncertainties. Many factors could cause actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements and Noble does not assume any obligation to update these statements. Please refer to our SEC filings for more information regarding our forward-looking statements, including the risks and uncertainties that could impact our future results and including risks and uncertainties associated with our previously announced business combination with Maersk Drilling.
Investors should carefully read our previous and ongoing disclosure with respect to such business combination, including in our press release issued yesterday and in our other filings with the SEC. Also note we are referencing non-GAAP financial measures in the call today. You can find the required supplemental disclosure for these measures, including the most directly comparable GAAP measure and an associated reconciliation in our earnings report issued yesterday and filed with the SEC.
With that, I’d like to turn the call over to our CEO, Robert Eifler.
Robert Eifler
Thank you, Ian and welcome to Noble. We are very glad to have you with us. Welcome also to everyone joining us on the call today. I will start with commentary on our business environment and follow with highlights on the offshore drilling market and Noble’s global operations before turning the call over to Richard to review our financial results for the quarter.
