Archer Drilling LLC wants to move its legal battle with Buccaneer Energy Ltd.

The drilling contractor wants to remove the case to the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, where Buccaneer is undergoing bankruptcy proceedings.

Archer and its affiliate Rig Inspection Services (US) LLC believes the case should be moved because it could have an impact of Buccaneer’s debtors, including Archer.

Buccaneer had hired Archer to refurbish, move and operate its Endeavour jack-up rig, but the companies parted ways in late 2012, each making claims against the other. The case has been sitting in the 165th Judicial District of Harris County, Texas, since late 2012.
