His counterpart at SHI, Park Dae-Young, warned that "there is nothing more important than survival," calling on his team to streamline management and continue "self-rescue" efforts. Jung Sung-leep, CEO of the financially challenged builder DSME, said that "expanding new orders, improving profitability and restructuring are still tasks to be solved." Jung promised that DSME would do its best to make 2017 "a turning point in the history of [the company]." On a positive note, DSME reported Wednesday that it had completed delivery of an ultra-harsh environment jack-up rig, securing a final construction installment of $380 million. "This will be a great help in solving the [company's] liquidity problem at the moment," a company official told Seoul News. The jack-up is the last in a series of four ordered by Maersk Drilling.
