 Exhibit 4.7 
 GUARANTY 
 GUARANTY, dated as of November 29, 2011 (this
“Guaranty”), made by Pacific Drilling S.A., a company organized and existing under the laws of Luxembourg (the “Guarantor”), in favor of Citigroup Inc. and each subsidiary or affiliate thereof (including Citibank,
N.A. and each of its branches wherever located) (including its successors and assigns, “Citi”). 
 For good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and to induce Citibank, N.A. to enter into an Agreement for Standby Letter of Credit, dated as of November 29, 2011 (the “SBLC Agreement”),
with Pacific Drilling (Gibraltar) Ltd., a Gibraltar company (the “Obligor”), as the applicant therein named, pursuant to which, as therein provided, Citibank, N.A. in its discretion may, inter alia, issue on or more stand-by
or direct pay standby letters of credit to Citibank Nigeria Ltd. to support the operations in Nigeria of the dynamically-positioned drill ship named “Pacific Scirocco” (the “Vessel”) owned by the Obligor’s subsidiary,
Pacific Scirocco Ltd., a Liberian corporation ( the “Owner”), the Guarantor agrees as follows: 
 1.
Guaranty. The Guarantor unconditionally guarantees the punctual payment when due, whether upon maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all obligations (now or hereafter existing) of the Obligor under the SBLC Agreement and any other
agreement or instrument relating thereto (all of the foregoing being, collectively, the “L/C Related Documents”), whether for principal, interest, fees, expenses or otherwise, in each case strictly in accordance with the terms
thereof (all such obligations being the “Obligations”). If the Obligor fails to pay any Obligation in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), the Guarantor will promptly pay the same to Citi. The
Guarantor will also pay to Citi any and all expenses (including without limitation, reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred by Citi in enforcing its rights under this Guaranty. This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not merely of
collection. 
 2. Guaranty Absolute. The liability of the Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be irrevocable, absolute
and unconditional irrespective of, and the Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now or hereafter acquire in any way relating to, any or all of the following: (i) any illegality, lack of validity or enforceability of any
Obligation, (ii) any amendment, modification, waiver or consent to departure from the terms of any Obligation, including any renewal or extension of the time or change of the manner or place of payment, (iii) any exchange, substitution,
release, non-perfection or impairment of any collateral securing payment of any Obligation, (iv) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of the Obligor, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar
proceeding affecting the Obligor or its assets or any resulting release or discharge of any Obligation, (v) the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights that the Guarantor may have at any time against the Obligor, Citi, or any other
corporation or person, whether in connection herewith or any unrelated transactions, provided that nothing herein will prevent the assertion of any such claim by separate suit or compulsory counterclaim, (vi) any law, regulation, decree or
order of any jurisdiction, or any other event, affecting any term of any Obligation or Citi’s rights with respect thereto, including, without limitation: (A) the application of any such law, regulation, decree or order, including any prior
approval, which would prevent the exchange of a Non-USD Currency (as hereinafter defined) for U.S. Dollars or the remittance of funds outside of such jurisdiction or the unavailability of U.S. Dollars in any legal exchange market in such
jurisdiction in accordance with normal commercial practice; or (B) a declaration of banking moratorium or any suspension of payments by banks in such jurisdiction or the imposition by such jurisdiction or any governmental authority thereof of
any moratorium on, the required rescheduling or restructuring of, or required approval of payments on, any indebtedness in such jurisdiction; or (C) any expropriation, confiscation, nationalization or requisition by such country or any
governmental authority that directly or indirectly deprives the Obligor of any assets or their use or of the ability to operate its business or a material part thereof; or (D) any war (whether or not declared), insurrection, revolution, hostile
act, civil strife or similar events occurring in such jurisdiction which has the same effect as the events described in clause (A), (B) or (C) above (in each of the cases contemplated in clauses (A) through (D) above, to the
extent occurring or existing on or at any time after the date of this Guaranty), and (vii) any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations) or any existence of or








 
reliance on any representation by Citi that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, the Obligor or the Guarantor or any other guarantor or surety
(other than the defense of payment or performance). 
 Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Guarantor
guarantees that it shall pay Citi strictly in accordance with the express terms of any document or agreement evidencing any Obligation, including in the amounts and in the currency expressly agreed to thereunder, irrespective of and without giving
effect to any laws of the jurisdiction where the Obligor is principally located in effect from time to time, or any order, decree or regulation in the jurisdiction where the Obligor is principally located. 

It is the intent of this Section 2 that the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder are and shall be absolute and unconditional under
any and all circumstances. 
 3. Waiver. The Guarantor waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance, notice of
dishonor and any other notice with respect to any Obligation and this Guaranty and any requirement that Citi exercise any right or take any action against the Obligor or any collateral security or credit support. 

4. Reinstatement. This Guaranty will continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of
any Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by Citi upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Obligor or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. 

5. Subrogation. The Guarantor will not assert, enforce or otherwise exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of subrogation
under this Guaranty, by any payment made hereunder or otherwise, until payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of any and all agreements under which Citi is committed to provide extensions of credit. 

6. Taxes. Any and all payments by the Guarantor hereunder will be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all
present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding income or franchise taxes imposed on Citi’s net income by the jurisdiction under the laws of which Citi is
organized or any political subdivision thereof or by the jurisdiction of Citi’s lending office or any political subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being
“Taxes”). If the Guarantor is required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder (i) the sum payable will be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including
deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) Citi will receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Guarantor will make such deductions, and (iii) the
Guarantor will pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law. In addition, the Guarantor will pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property
taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Guaranty or the Obligations (“Other Taxes”). The Guarantor will
promptly furnish to Citi the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. The Guarantor will indemnify Citi for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes paid by Citi or any liability (including penalties, interest and
expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted, within 30 days of Citi’s request therefor. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement contained
herein, the Guarantor’s agreements and obligations contained in this Section will survive the payment in full of the Obligations, principal and interest hereunder and any termination of this Guaranty. 

7. Place and Currency of Payment. If any Obligation is payable in U.S. Dollars, the Guarantor will make payment hereunder to Citi
in U.S. Dollars at 399 Park Avenue, New York, New York or such other location in the United States of America as Citi specifies to the Guarantor. If any Obligation is payable in a currency other than U.S. Dollars (a “Non-USD
Currency”), the Guarantor will, at Citi’s option, either (i) make payment in such 

  
 2 








 
Non-USD Currency at the place where such Obligation is payable, or (ii) pay Citi in U.S. Dollars at 399 Park Avenue, New York, New York or such other location in the United States as Citi
specifies to the Guarantor. In the event of a payment pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Guarantor will pay Citi the equivalent of the amount of such Obligation in U.S. Dollars calculated at the rate of exchange at which, in accordance with
normal banking procedures, Citi may buy such Non-USD Currency in New York, New York on the date the Guarantor makes such payment; provided, however, that the foregoing provisions of this sentence shall not apply to any payments
hereunder in respect of Obligations that have been re-denominated into a Non-USD Currency as a result of the application of any law, order, decree or regulation in any jurisdiction other than the United States, which Obligations shall, for purposes
of this Guaranty, be deemed to remain denominated in U.S. Dollars and payable to Citi in accordance with the first sentence of this Section. 
 8. Set-Off. If the Guarantor fails to pay any of its obligations hereunder when due and payable, Citi is authorized at any time and from time to time, to set off and apply any and all deposits
(general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by Citi to or for the Guarantor’s credit or account against any and all of the Obligations, whether or not Citi has made any
demand under this Guaranty. Citi will promptly notify the Guarantor after any such set-off and application, provided that the failure to give such notice will not affect the validity of such set-off and application. Citi’s rights under this
Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) that Citi may have. 
 9. Representations and Warranties. The Guarantor represents and warrants that: 
 (i) the execution, delivery and performance by the Guarantor of this Guaranty are within its corporate powers, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, and do not contravene
(x) its charter or by-laws or (y) any law or any contractual restriction binding on or affecting the Guarantor or any entity that controls it;

operations, performance, properties or prospects of the Guarantor and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or which would impair the ability of the Guarantor to perform its obligations hereunder, or which in any manner draws into question the

 6 








 
receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for the Guarantor or any of its subsidiaries or for any substantial part of the Guarantor’s or such subsidiary’s property and, in
the case of any such proceeding instituted against the Guarantor or such subsidiary (but not instituted by the Guarantor or such subsidiary), either such proceeding remains undismissed or unstayed for a period of 30 days, or any of the actions
sought in such proceeding (including, without limitation, the entry of an order for relief against, or the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official) occurs; or the Guarantor or any of its subsidiaries takes any

Obligations (including any contingent Obligations) at a purchase price equal to the aggregate amount of the outstanding Obligations (including any contingent Obligations); provided however, that the Guarantor’s obligation to make such purchase
shall be automatic (and Citi shall not be required to make demand therefore) immediately upon the occurrence of a Guarantor Event of Default set forth in clause (v) of this Section. Such purchase will be made not later than 12:00 noon two
business days after the date of such demand for purchase, and in a place and currency as set forth in Section 7; provided further however, that such purchase shall be made immediately upon the occurrence of a Guarantor Event of Default set
forth in clause (v) of this Section. The Guarantor hereby agrees that the purchase of the Obligations (including any contingent Obligations) by it hereunder will be without recourse to or representation or warranty by Citi. The foregoing remedy

 12. Continuing Guaranty. This is a continuing guaranty and applies to all Obligations whenever arising. This Guaranty
is irrevocable and will remain in full force and effect until the payment in full of the Obligations and all amounts payable hereunder and the termination of all of the agreements relating to the Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in this Section 12 or in this Guaranty, upon the consummation and effectiveness of a separate agreement (a “Replacement Agreement”) governing the issuance of a letter of credit between, among other parties, Citi and the
Obligor, whereby, inter alia, (v) the SBLC has been terminated, and (w) each Credit (as therein defined) issued under the SBLC then outstanding has been returned to Citi and cancelled or has been assumed as a letter of credit issued by
Citi as issuing bank under the Replacement Agreement, and (x) all Obligations (as therein defined) under the SBLC (including without limitation payment and indemnity obligations) have been assumed (the “Assumed Obligations”) by
the Obligor under the Replacement Agreement, and (y) a guarantor satisfactory to Citi in form and substance satisfactory to Citi has guaranteed all obligations of the Obligor under the Replacement Agreement, and (z) Citi has received such
security satisfactory to it under the Replacement Agreement, then thereupon this Guaranty, and all obligations of the Guarantor hereunder, shall immediately terminate and be of no further force and effect (but without limitation of the
Obligor’s obligations to perform the Assumed Obligations under the Replacement Agreement). 
 13. Amendments, Etc.
No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty, and no consent to departure by the Guarantor herefrom, will in any event be effective unless the same is in writing and signed by Citibank, N.A., on behalf of Citi, and then such waiver or
consent will be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. 
 14. Addresses.
All notices and other communications provided for hereunder will be in writing (including telecopier communication), and mailed, telecopied or delivered to it, if to the Guarantor, at its address at 3050 Post


  
 7 








 
Oak Blvd., Suite 1500, Houston Texas 77056, Attention: Christian J. Beckett, and if to Citi, at its address c/o Citibank, N.A.,
                                         
                                         
                                         
 ,
Attention:                                       
              Department, or, as to either party, at such other address as is designated by such party in a written notice to the other party. All such notices and other
communications will, when mailed or telecopied, be effective when deposited in the mails or telecopied, respectively. 
 15.
Guarantor’s Credit Decision, Etc. The Guarantor has, independently and without reliance on Citi and based on such documents and information as the Guarantor has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into
this Guaranty. The Guarantor has adequate means to obtain from the Obligor on a continuing basis information concerning the financial condition, operations and business of the Obligor, and the Guarantor is not relying on Citi to provide such
information now or in the future. The Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefit from the extensions of credit contemplated by this Guaranty. 

16. Judgment. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in U.S.
Dollars into a Non-USD Currency, the Guarantor agrees that the rate of exchange used will be that at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures, Citi could purchase U.S. Dollars with such Non-USD Currency on the business day preceding that
on which final judgment is given. The obligation of the Guarantor in respect of any sum due hereunder will, notwithstanding any judgment in a Non-USD Currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the date the Guarantor makes payment to Citi of
any sum adjudged to be so due in such Non-USD Currency, Citi may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase U.S. Dollars with such Non-USD Currency; if the U.S. Dollars so purchased are less than the sum originally due to Citi in U.S.
Dollars, the Guarantor agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify Citi against such loss, and if the U.S. Dollars so purchased exceed the sum originally due to Citi in U.S. Dollars, Citi agrees to remit to
the Guarantor such excess. 
 17. Governing Law. This Guaranty shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with,
the laws of the State of New York. 
 18. Consent to Jurisdiction, Etc. The Guarantor irrevocably and
unconditionally (i) submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or Federal court located in the County of New York, State of New York, over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty,
(ii) accepts for itself and in respect of its property the jurisdiction of such courts, and (iii) waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such courts and any claim that any such
suit, action or proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum. The Guarantor hereby irrevocably appoints CT Corporation System (the “Process Agent”) with an office on the date hereof at 111 Eighth Avenue, 13th Floor, New York 10011, United States, as its agent to receive on
behalf of the Guarantor and its property service of copies of the summons and complaint and any other notice, document or process which may be served in such suit, action or proceeding. Such service may be made by mailing or delivering a copy of
such process to the Guarantor in care of the Process Agent, and the Guarantor hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Process Agent to accept such service on its behalf. As an alternative method of service, the Guarantor also irrevocably
consents to the service of any and all process in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies of such process to the Company at its address specified in Section 14. A final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding will be
conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing herein will affect the right of Citi to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or affect Citi’s
right to bring any suit, action or proceeding against the Guarantor or its property in the courts of other jurisdictions. To the extent that the Guarantor has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal
process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, the Guarantor irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations
under this Guaranty.
