                                EXPLANATORY NOTE

         Nabors Industries Ltd. is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K/A to
correct typographical errors in our segment reporting table from those included
in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on January 30, 2003 (the "Original
8-K"). This Current Report on Form 8-K/A amends, restates and supercedes the
Original 8-K in its entirety.

         The amounts reported for Operating revenues and Earnings from
unconsolidated affiliates for our U.S. Land Drilling segment have been reduced
from the amounts previously reported by $238,000 and $971,000 for the three and
twelve months ended December 31, 2001, respectively. These reductions are offset
by increases in Operating revenues and Earnings from unconsolidated affiliates
for our Manufacturing and logistics segment of the same amounts.

         The amount reported for Cash flow derived from operating activities for
our Canadian land drilling segment has been increased from the amount previously
reported by $3.4 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2001. This
reduction is offset by a reduction in Cash flow derived from operating
activities for our Other segment of the same amount.

         These revisions had no impact on our consolidated Operating revenues
and Earnings from unconsolidated affiliates, or Cash flow derived from operating
activities.
