Management
Thank you, Melissa, and welcome everyone to Noble Corporation's third quarter 2014 earnings call. We appreciate the interest in the Company. A copy of Noble's earnings report issued last evening, along with the supporting statements and schedules, can be found on the Noble Web-site, and that's noblecorp.com. Before I turn the call over to David Williams, I'd like to remind everyone that we may make statements about our operations, opportunities, plans, operational or financial performance, and the drilling business or other matters that are not historical facts and are forward-looking statements that are subject to certain risks and uncertainties. Our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, which are posted on our Web-site, discuss the risks and uncertainties in our business and industry, and the various factors that could keep outcomes of any forward-looking statements from being realized, including the price of oil and gas, customer demand, operational and other risks. Our actual results could differ materially from these forward-looking statements and Noble does not assume any obligation to update these statements. Also, note that we may use non-GAAP financial measures in the call today. If we do, you will find the required supplemental disclosure for these measures, including the most directly comparable GAAP measure and an associated reconciliation on our Web-site. And finally, consistent with our quarterly disclosure practices, we will post to our Web-site, following the conclusion of our call, a summary of the financial guidance covered on today's call which will highlight fourth quarter figures. Okay, with the preliminary details covered, I'll now turn the call over to David Williams, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Noble.
