These rigs have been contracted with Oil India and MercatorBSE 0.71 % Petroleum.

EOSIL is expecting to increase its revenues by a further 20 per cent in 2018-19 because of better deployment of assets, the statement said adding eight of its rigs are likely to be in operation for a range of clients in the upcoming financial year.
