Diamond Offshore shrinks headquarters footprint as it recommits to Houston's Energy Corridor

Today Diamond describes itself as a leading offshore drilling firm with a fleet of 14 offshore drilling rigs and 2,100 employees globally, including locations in Brazil, the United Kingdom and Australia.

Amy Roddy, senior vice president for human resources for Diamond Offshore, said in a statement that the company selected One Eldridge in part because the design of the building could accommodate more collaborative workspaces. “The Energy Corridor location, convenient access to I-10, and amenities will enhance our ability to attract and retain top talent,” Roddy added.

One Eldridge is part of a 824,632-square-foot, three-building complex Granite bought in 2019 for $78.4 million. Granite has since poured $10 million into upgrading and modernizing the complex. "One Eldridge represents a significant step forward for Diamond Offshore, enabling them to optimize their operations with a more efficient footprint while simultaneously elevating the employee experience,” said Lonna Jenks, JLL Vice President, who represented Diamond Offshore, working with Transwestern's Eric Anderson. Granite was represented by Jon Dutton and Andrew Elliott of Granite.

Excitation and probing of low-energy nuclear states at high-energy storage rings$^{229}\mathrm{Th}$ with a low-lying nuclear isomeric state is an essential candidate for a nuclear clock as well as many other applications. Laser excitation of the isomeric state has been a long-standing goal. With relativistic $^{229}\mathrm{Th}$ ions in storage rings, high-power lasers with wavelengths in the visible range or longer can be used to achieve high excitation rates of $^{229}\mathrm{Th}$ isomers. This can be realized through direct resonant excitation or excitation via an intermediate nuclear or electronic state, facilitated by the tunability of both the laser-beam and ion-bunch parameters. Unique opportunities are offered by highly charged $^{229}\mathrm{Th}$ ions due to the nuclear-state mixing. The significantly reduced isomeric-state lifetime corresponds to a much higher excitation rate for direct resonant excitation. Importantly, we propose electric dipole transitions changing both the electronic and nuclear states that are opened by the nuclear hyperfine mixing. We suggest using them for efficient isomer excitation in Li-like $^{229}\mathrm{Th}$ ions, via stimulated Raman adiabatic passage or single-laser excitation. We also propose schemes for probing the isomers, utilizing nuclear radiative decay or laser spectroscopy on electronic transitions, through which the isomeric-state energy can be determined with an orders-of-magnitude higher precision than the current value. The schemes proposed here for $^{229}\mathrm{Th}$ could also be adapted to low-energy nuclear states in other nuclei, such as $^{229}\mathrm{Pa}$.
