ITEM 2.01  Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

         On December 22, 2004, Transocean Inc. (the "Company") announced the
closing of its public secondary stock offering of 14,950,000 shares of Class A
common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Class A Common Stock"), of TODCO
(the "December Offering"). The offering price was $18.00 per share. The closing
included 1,950,000 shares relating to the underwriters' over-allotment option,
which was exercised in full. The Company received approximately $257.1 million
of proceeds from the December Offering, net of underwriting fees and estimated
expenses. The Company intends to use the proceeds for the reduction of corporate
debt and for general corporate purposes.

         After the closing of the December Offering, the Company owns
approximately 22% of TODCO's common stock, comprised entirely of shares of Class
A Common Stock. Concurrent with the December Offering, the Company converted its
remaining 13,310,000 shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.01 per share
(the "Class B Common Stock"), of TODCO into an equal number of shares of Class A
Common Stock. Each share of the Class B Common Stock had five votes per share
compared to one vote per share of the Class A Common Stock. As a result of the
conversion of the Class B shares to Class A shares, the Company no longer has a
majority voting interest in TODCO and will no longer consolidate TODCO in its
financial statements but will account for its remaining investment under the
equity method.

         Prior to the December Offering, in February 2004, TODCO completed an
initial public offering of 13,800,000 shares of Class A Common Stock on behalf
of the Company as selling stockholder (the "IPO"). The offering price was $12.00
per share. The Company received approximately $155.7 million of proceeds from
the IPO, net of underwriting fees and estimated expenses.

         Also prior to the December Offering, in September 2004, TODCO completed
a secondary public offering of 17,940,000 shares of Class A Common Stock on
behalf of the Company as selling stockholder (the "September Offering"). The
offering price was $15.75 per share. The Company received approximately $269.9
million of proceeds from the September Offering, net of underwriting fees and
estimated expenses.

         Before the closing of the IPO, TODCO entered into various agreements
with the Company to complete the separation of TODCO's business from the
Company, including a master separation agreement, a tax sharing agreement, a
registration rights agreement, a transition services agreement and an employee
matters agreement. The master separation agreement provides for, among other
things, the assumption by the Company of liabilities unrelated to TODCO's
business and the assumption by TODCO of liabilities related to its business.
Under the tax sharing agreement, the Company will indemnify TODCO for most
pre-IPO income tax liabilities. However, TODCO must pay the Company for most
pre-IPO income tax benefits that it utilizes after the IPO. For a discussion of
these agreements, see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations--Separation of TODCO" in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.


         TODCO is a leading provider of contract oil and gas drilling services,
primarily in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico shallow water and inland marine region.
TODCO operates a fleet of 70 drilling rigs consisting of 30 inland barge rigs,
24 jackup rigs, three submersible rigs, one platform rig, nine land rigs and
three lake barges. TODCO's core business is to contract its drilling rigs,
related equipment and work crews on a dayrate basis to customers who are
drilling oil and gas wells.

         Statements regarding expected net proceeds and intended uses of
proceeds, agreements with TODCO, as well as any other statements that are not
historical facts in this release are forward-looking statements that involve
certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions. These include but are not limited
to general market conditions, market conditions in the financial markets and
other factors detailed in the registration statement relating to the December
Offering and the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should
underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from
those indicated.

ITEM 9.01  Financial Statements and Exhibits

(b)      Pro Forma Financial Information.

         The pro forma information required by Item 9.01(b) of Form 8-K is set
forth below:

HOW WE PREPARED THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION

         The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements set
forth below for the Company give effect to the December Offering and the
deconsolidation of TODCO as if the December Offering and deconsolidation of
TODCO had been completed on January 1, 2003 for income statement purposes and
September 30, 2004 for balance sheet purposes, subject to the assumptions in the
accompanying notes to the pro forma financial statements. As of September 30,
2004, the Company had reported TODCO as a business segment in its consolidated
financial statements.

         If the Company had completed the December Offering and deconsolidated
TODCO on the dates assumed in the pro forma financial statements, the Company
might have performed differently. You should not rely on the pro forma financial
information as an indication of the financial position or results of operations
that the Company would have achieved had the December Offering and
deconsolidation of TODCO been completed at the dates indicated or of the future
financial position or results of operations that the Company will achieve after
the December Offering and deconsolidation of TODCO.

         The pro forma adjustments included herein are based on available
information and certain assumptions that management believes are reasonable and
are described in the accompanying notes to the pro forma financial statements.
The unaudited condensed pro forma consolidated financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the historical financial statements of the Company.

         See the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Pro Forma Consolidated
Financial Statements for a discussion of the basis of the presentation included
in these financial statements.

                   NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED PRO FORMA
                        CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
  (AMOUNTS IN MILLIONS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS OR UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED)

         Pro forma adjustments reflected in the Company's unaudited condensed
pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2004 are intended to
provide a view of the order of magnitude of the impact on the Company of the
recently completed December Offering and deconsolidation of TODCO. The pro forma
balance sheet is not intended to represent the final actual result of the
December Offering and deconsolidation of TODCO but uses a number of estimates
and the most recent quarter end balance sheet to enable timely disclosure. The
actual impact will be determined based on actual results achieved during the
quarter ending December 31, 2004. The actual impact may differ considerably from
the approximations provided in this report.

(1)  Represents the removal of the TODCO business segment balances included in
     the Company's consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2004 and the
     TODCO business segment results of operations included the Company's
     consolidated income statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2004
     and the year ended December 31, 2003.

     (a)  Income Tax Expense - An income tax benefit was computed for TODCO, a
          U.S. entity, assuming a 35% effective tax rate for the nine months
          ended September 30, 2004 and for the year ended December 31, 2003. The
          income tax benefit for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 was
          fully offset by an increase in a valuation allowance as a result of
          the IPO, which was completed in February 2004.

(2)  A summary of the pro forma adjustments reflecting the disposition of TODCO
     is as follows:

     (a)  Cash - Represents the proceeds received at closing of the December
          Offering of approximately $257.1 million, net of underwriting fees and
          estimated expenses.

     (b)  Deferred Income Taxes - Under the tax sharing agreement between the
          Company and TODCO, TODCO is required to pay the Company for the use of
          most pre-IPO tax assets (primarily net operating losses). Upon the
          completion of the IPO, the Company established a valuation allowance
          for the estimated amount of these tax assets in excess of TODCO's
          deferred tax liabilities, taking into account tax planning strategies
          in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 109,
          Accounting for Income Taxes. Upon the deconsolidation of TODCO, the
          tax benefits accruing to the Company under the tax sharing agreement
          will be considered a contractual receivable from a third party. This
          adjustment represents the write off of this estimated contractual
          receivable, which will occur during the quarter ending December 31,
          2004 as a result of the deconsolidation. The write off is necessary as
          the future payments under the tax sharing agreement are dependent on
          TODCO generating future taxable income, which cannot be assumed until
          such income is actually generated. Accordingly, the Company will
          recognize such tax benefits in its financial statements in the future
          if and when those benefits are realized. The amount shown is an
          estimate based on balances included in the Company's financial
          statements at September 30, 2004. The actual amount of the write-off
          will be finalized in the quarter ending December 31, 2004.

                 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (CONTINUED)

     (c)  Investments In and Advances to Joint Ventures - Represents the
          Company's 22% investment in TODCO as of September 30, 2004.

     (d)  Minority Interest - Represents the minority interest in TODCO
          reflected in the Company's consolidated financial statements as of
          September 30, 2004.

     (e)  Shareholders' Equity - A reconciliation of the pro forma adjustment is
          as follows:

          $259.8   Represents removal of the minority interests' share in TODCO
                   reflected in the Company's consolidated financial statements
                   as of September 30, 2004
           140.1   Represents the estimated gain from the December Offering had
                   the offering occurred at September 30, 2004
           117.0   Represents the Company's basis in the TODCO shares sold in 
                   the December Offering 
           104.1   Represents the Company's 22% investment in TODCO resulting
                   from the December Offering 
          (162.3)  Represents the estimated write off of the contractual
                   receivable from TODCO as discussed in note (b) above
          ------
          $458.7   Total Shareholders' Equity pro forma adjustment

     (f)  Gains from TODCO Offerings - The historical results exclude the 
          non-recurring estimated gain of $140.1 million from the December
          Offering. The year ended December 31, 2003 amount excludes
          non-recurring gains from the IPO and September Offering of $168.8
          million as well as the non-recurring estimated gain of $140.1 from the
          December Offering.

     (g)  Other Income (Expense), net - Represents the Company's 22% equity in
          losses of TODCO for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and for
          the year ended December 31, 2003. The write-off of the TODCO
          contractual receivable discussed in footnotes (b) and (e) above has
          not been reflected in the nine months ended September 30, 2004 or in
          the year ended December 31, 2003 as it is non-recurring in nature.

     (h)  Income Tax Expense - No additional tax expense has been computed on
          the Company's equity in TODCO's losses as the amount in note (g) was
          computed on after-tax losses.

     (i)  Minority Interest - Represents removal of the minority interests'
          share of TODCO's losses recorded during the nine months ended
          September 30, 2004. None was reflected for the year ended December 31,
          2003 as the IPO occurred during the first quarter of 2004.
