Struggling rig operator Seadrill gets a breather from some of its lenders to postpone payments on debt.

Seadrill has thus agreed with some of its lenders to postpone payments on debt until Dec. 14, according to a press release Friday. This is done to provide more time to settle a large-scale rescue plan, that might need to be found through the court, says the company.
