     You should read and rely only on the information contained in the prospectus supplements and the related prospectus, together with those documents incorporated by reference, as described on page (iii) of the related prospectus under “Incorporation By Reference.” Neither the Company, Nabors nor any selling security holder has authorized any person to provide you with different or additional information.

The selling security holders are offering to sell, and are seeking offers to buy, the securities only in jurisdictions where offers and sales are permitted.

     The information set forth in the following table modifies and supplements the information set forth in the table appearing under the heading “Selling Security Holders” in the related prospectus. The information is based on information provided to the Company and Nabors by or on behalf of the selling security holders on or prior to March 6, 2007 and has not been independently verified by the Company and Nabors. Since the date on which each selling security holder identified below provided this information, any of these selling security holders may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of all or a portion of its securities in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act or pursuant to the prospectus to which this prospectus supplement relates. The selling security holders may from time to time offer and sell pursuant to the prospectus or supplements thereto any or all of the securities. Because the selling security holders are not obligated to sell securities, the Company cannot estimate the amount of the notes or how many of Nabors’ common shares the selling security holders will hold upon consummation of any such sales. Information about other selling security holders, if any, will be provided in one or more prospectus supplements or post-effective amendments to the registration statement of which the prospectus is a part.
