This Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D relates to shares of Common
Stock, $0.125 par value per share (the "Shares"), of Rowan Companies, Inc. (the
"Issuer"). This Amendment No. 3 supplementally amends the initial statement on
Schedule 13D dated May 29, 1996 and all amendments thereto (collectively, the
"Initial Statement") filed by one of the Reporting Persons (as defined herein).
This Amendment No. 3 is being filed by the Reporting Persons to report the
transfer of the investment advisory contract between Soros Fund Management
("SFM") and Quantum Fund N.V., a Netherlands Antilles company ("Quantum Fund"),
whose principal operating subsidiary is Quantum Partners LDC, a Cayman Islands
exempted limited duration company ("Quantum Partners"), pursuant to which SFM
was granted investment discretion over portfolio investments, including the
Shares, held for the account of Quantum Partners. The investment advisory
contract has been transferred from SFM to Soros Fund Management LLC ("SFM LLC"),
a newly formed Delaware limited liability company. Capitalized terms used but
not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Initial
Statement. The Initial Statement is supplementally amended as follows.
Item 2. Identity and Background.
This statement is being filed by SFM LLC, Mr. George Soros ("Mr.
Soros"), Mr. Stanley F. Druckenmiller ("Mr. Druckenmiller") and Duquesne Capital
Management, L.L.C., a Pennsylvania limited liability company ("Duquesne LLC,"
and together with SFM LLC, Mr. Soros and Mr. Druckenmiller, the "Reporting
Persons"). This statement relates to Shares held for the accounts of Quantum
Partners, Mr. Soros, Lupa Family Partners, a New York limited partnership
("Lupa"), and the Duquesne LLC Clients (as defined herein).
Effective as of January 1, 1997, SFM, a sole proprietorship of
which Mr. Soros is the sole proprietor, transferred its investment advisory
contract with Quantum Fund to SFM LLC as part of a restructuring of the business
of SFM, which will now be conducted through SFM LLC. SFM LLC has its principal
office at 888 Seventh Avenue, 33rd Floor, New York, New York 10106. Its
principal business is to serve, pursuant to contract, as the principal
investment manager to several foreign investment companies (the "SFM Clients"),
including Quantum Fund and Quantum Partners. Each of Quantum Fund and Quantum
Partners has its principal office at Kaya Flamboyan 9, Willemstad, Curacao,
Netherlands Antilles. SFM LLC's contracts with SFM Clients generally provide
that SFM LLC is responsible for designing and implementing the SFM Clients'
overall investment strategy; for conducting direct portfolio management
strategies to the extent that SFM LLC determines that it is appropriate to
utilize its own portfolio management capabilities; for selecting, evaluating and
monitoring other investment advisors who manage separate portfolios on behalf of
SFM Clients; and for allocating and reallocating the SFM Clients' assets among
the outside managers and itself.
The business of SFM LLC is managed through a Management Committee
(the "Management Committee") comprised of Mr. Soros, Mr. Druckenmiller and Mr.
Gary Gladstein. Mr. Soros, as Chairman of SFM LLC, has the ability to direct the
investment decisions of SFM LLC and as such may be deemed to have investment
discretion over the securities held for the accounts of the SFM Clients. Mr.
Druckenmiller, as Lead Portfolio Manager of SFM LLC, has the ability to direct
the investment decisions of SFM LLC and as such may be deemed to have investment
discretion over the securities held for the accounts of the SFM Clients. Set
forth in Annex A hereto and incorporated by reference in response to this Item 2
and elsewhere in this Schedule 13D as applicable is a list of the Managing
Directors of SFM LLC.
The principal occupation of Mr. Soros, a United States citizen,
is his direction of the activities of SFM LLC, which is carried out in his
capacity as Chairman of SFM LLC at SFM LLC's principal office.

Lupa is primarily engaged in securities investment. In his
capacity as one of two general partners, Mr. Soros exercises voting and
dispositive power with respect to securities held for the account of Lupa. The
other general partner of Lupa is Mr. Paul Soros, Mr. Soros' brother, who does
not normally exercise voting or dispositive power over the investments held by
Lupa. Paul Soros is a United States citizen who is the founder and former
president of Soros Associates, an international engineering firm. Paul Soros has
his principal office at 888 Seventh Avenue, 32nd Floor, New York, New York
10106.
The principal occupation of Mr. Druckenmiller, a United States
citizen, is his position as Lead Portfolio Manager and a member of the
Management Committee of SFM LLC, which is carried out at SFM LLC's principal
office. Mr. Druckenmiller also owns a 75% interest in, and is the sole managing
member of, Duquesne LLC, an investment advisory firm. Duquesne LLC has its
principal offices at 2579 Washington Road, Suite 322, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
15241-2591. Its principal business is to serve, pursuant to contract, as a
discretionary investment advisor to a limited number of institutional clients
(the "Duquesne LLC Clients").
Pursuant to regulations promulgated under Section 13(d) of the
Act, SFM LLC, Mr. Soros, in his capacity as Chairman of SFM LLC, and Mr.
Druckenmiller, in his capacity as Lead Portfolio Manager of SFM LLC, each may be
deemed a beneficial owner of securities, including the Shares, held for the
account of Quantum Partners as a result of the contractual authority of SFM LLC
to exercise voting and dispositive power with respect to such securities. Mr.
Soros, by reason of his position as the general partner of Lupa who exercises
voting and dispositive power over the securities held for the account of Lupa,
may be deemed the beneficial owner of securities, including the Shares, held for
the account of Lupa.
Pursuant to regulations promulgated under Section 13(d) of the
Act, Mr. Druckenmiller, by virtue of his interest in, and position as sole
managing member of, Duquesne LLC, may be deemed a beneficial owner of
securities, including the Shares, held for the account of Duquesne LLC as a
result of the contractual authority of Duquesne LLC to exercise voting and
dispositive power with respect to such securities.
During the past five years, none of the Reporting Persons,
Quantum Partners, Lupa and, to the best of the Reporting Persons' knowledge, any
other person identified in response to this Item 2 has been (a) convicted in a
criminal proceeding, or (b) a party to any civil proceeding as a result of which
he has been subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future
violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or
state securities laws, or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

capital to purchase the Shares reported herein as being acquired within the last
