The following stocks made announcements after the market closed on Wednesday, which could affect the trading of their shares.

Delivery of the jack-up named Skald came half a year after that of Borr Drilling's rig, Saga. Skald and Saga are first two of five Super B Class jack-ups Transocean has commissioned to Keppel Fels for construction at US$1.1 billion.

"With this new platform, the company will also be able to undertake design projects relating to water services to create a new source of profit growth." The institute is the only national grade-A municipal design institute in the Huaihai economic zone.
