Certain statements contained in this report, including statements that contain words such as "could", "should", "can", "anticipate","estimate", "intend", "plan", "expect", "believe", "will", "may", "continue", "project", "potential" and similar expressions and statementsrelating to matters that are not historical facts constitute "forward-looking information" within the meaning of applicable Canadiansecurities legislation and "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the "safe harbor" provisions of the United States PrivateSecurities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (collectively, "forward-looking information and statements").
In particular, forward looking information and statements include, but are not limited to, the following: our strategic priorities for 2018;our capital expenditure plans for 2018; anticipated activity levels in 2018 and our scheduled infrastructure projects; anticipated demandfor Tier 1 rigs; the average number of term contracts in place for 2018 and 2019; expectation for U.S. operating costs to be lower in thefourth quarter of 2018; our future debt reduction plans beyond 2018; and the anticipated financial, operational and strategic benefits ofthe proposed Trinidad Drilling transaction.
These forward-looking information and statements are based on certain assumptions and analysis made by Precision in light of ourexperience and our perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors we believe areappropriate under the circumstances. These include, among other things: the fluctuation in oil prices may pressure customers intoreducing or limiting their drilling budgets; the status of current negotiations with our customers and vendors; customer focus on safetyperformance; existing term contracts are neither renewed nor terminated prematurely; our ability to deliver rigs to customers on a timelybasis; and the general stability of the economic and political environments in the jurisdictions where we operate.
Undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking information and statements. Whether actual results, performance orachievements will conform to our expectations and predictions is subject to a number of known and unknown risks and uncertaintieswhich could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to:volatility in the price and demand for oil and natural gas; fluctuations in the demand for contract drilling, well servicing and ancillaryoilfield services; our customers’ inability to obtain adequate credit or financing to support their drilling and production activity; changes indrilling and well servicing technology which could reduce demand for certain rigs or put us at a competitive disadvantage; shortages,delays and interruptions in the delivery of equipment supplies and other key inputs; the effects of seasonal and weather conditions onoperations and facilities; the availability of qualified personnel and management; a decline in our safety performance which could resultin lower demand for our services; changes in environmental laws and regulations such as increased regulation of hydraulic fracturing orrestrictions on the burning of fossil fuels and greenhouse gas emissions, which could have an adverse impact on the demand for oil andgas; terrorism, social, civil and political unrest in the foreign jurisdictions where we operate; fluctuations in foreign exchange, interestrates and tax rates; and other unforeseen conditions which could impact the use of services supplied by Precision and Precision’s ability torespond to such conditions.
Readers are cautioned that the forgoing list of risk factors is not exhaustive. Additional information on these and other factors that couldaffect our business, operations or financial results are included in reports on file with applicable securities regulatory authorities,including but not limited to Precision’s Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2017, which may be accessed onPrecision’s SEDAR profile at www.sedar.com or under Precision’s EDGAR profile at www.sec.gov.
