Third Quarter 2020 Compared to Third Quarter 2019
The Partnership generated a net loss of $6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to a net loss of $24 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019. The results for the recent quarter benefited mainly from a $22 million increase in unrealized fair value on derivative instruments, $6 million lower depreciation due to vessels impaired and sold in prior quarters, a $5 million decrease in net interest expense partly offset by a decrease in revenues of $13 million mainly in the shuttle tanker segment.
Adjusted EBITDA was $140 million in the third quarter of 2020, compared to $162 million in the same quarter of the prior year. The decrease of $22 million is mainly due to the Voyageur FPSO completing operations in June 2020, lower uptime on the Petrojarl I FPSO and lower activity in the shuttle tanker segment.
Third Quarter 2020 Compared to Second Quarter 2020
The Partnership generated a net loss of $6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to a net loss of $8 million in the prior quarter. The results were impacted by a $15 million gain in fair value of derivatives and $4 million lower impairment charges. These positive effects were partly offset by an $18 million decrease in revenues, mainly in the shuttle tanker segment.
Adjusted EBITDA was $140 million in the third quarter of 2020, compared to $153 million in the prior quarter. The decrease of $13 million is mainly due to the Voyageur FPSO completing operations in June 2020, lower uptime on the Petrojarl I FPSO, and lower activity in the shuttle tanker segment also reflecting seasonal maintenance. These negative effects were partly offset by higher utilization in the towage fleet and an absence of certain second quarter 2020 Dampier Spirit FSO non-cash and non-recurring negative revenue items.
Please refer to the report on Form 6-K relating to the third quarter of 2020 for additional information on variances by segment and for reconciliations between IFRS net loss and Adjusted EBITDA.
Summary of Recent Events
Contracts
Premier Oil CoA contract
In July 2020, Premier Oil Plc exercised the first of three options to extend the contract of affreightment on the UK Solan field by 12 months.
ALP Towage contract
In August 2020, the Partnership entered into a contract with SBM Offshore N.V to tow the Liza Unity FPSO from the yard in Singapore to the Liza field in Guyana. This project will require up to four towage vessels and is expected to take place during the second and third quarters of 2021.
Dana Petroleum CoA contract
In August 2020, the Partnership agreed with Dana Petroleum to extend the firm period of the current contract of affreightment on the Triton field by six months from September 2020.
Equinor Master agreement
In August 2020, the Partnership confirmed with Equinor that the Current Spirit shuttle tanker will operate as a third vessel under the existing master agreement. Operation is expected from the fourth quarter 2020.
Redelivery of in-chartered vessel
In August 2020, the Partnership agreed to redeliver the shuttle tanker Heather Knutsen to Knutsen NYK Offshore Tankers Group three months earlier than scheduled. The vessel was redelivered on September 1, 2020.
Termination of the Dampier FSO contract
In September, the Dampier Spirit FSO ceased operations on the Stag field. The vessel is currently at anchorage in Australian waters prior to being towed to Turkey for responsible recycling.
ENI CoA contract
In September 2020, the Partnership was awarded a five-year contract of affreightment contract with ENI in the North Sea, replacing the current Esso contract of affreightment. The new contract is effective from November 2020 and will include additional volumes equivalent to one extra vessel being fully utilized to service this contract throughout the term.
Delivery of Shuttle Tanker Newbuildings
In July and August 2020, the Partnership took delivery of the third and fourth LNG-fueled Suezmax DP2 shuttle tanker newbuildings, the Tide Spirit and the Current Spirit. The vessels are constructed based on the Partnership's E-shuttle design, which incorporates technologies intended to increase fuel efficiency and reduce emissions, using LNG fuel and recovered volatile organic compounds (VOCs) as a secondary fuel, as well as battery packs for flexible power distribution and blackout prevention. The vessels have arrived in Norway for client testing.
The remaining two E-shuttle newbuildings are expected to be delivered between December 2020 and January 2021, while the East Coast of Canada newbuilding is expected to be delivered early-2022.
Sale of Vessel
In July 2020, the Partnership sold the Navion Bergen shuttle tanker for recycling in India in accordance with the Hong Kong Convention on the Responsible Recycling of Vessels as required by the Partnership’s responsible recycling policy.
IFRS Transition
The Partnership adopted IFRS effective September 30, 2020. Prior to the adoption of IFRS, the Partnership prepared its financial statements in accordance with USGAAP. The change to IFRS has been made to align the Partnership's financial reporting with its majority owner.
As a result, the 2019 and 2020 comparative financial information has been adjusted from amounts previously reported in the Partnership’s financial statements prepared in accordance with USGAAP. The Partnership’s transition date is January 1, 2019 (or the Transition Date) and a consolidated statement of financial position has been prepared as at that date and will be available in the Report on Form 6-K for the third quarter of 2020.
COVID-19
In the third quarter of 2020 the Partnership did not experience any material business interruptions or direct financial impact as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Partnership continues to focus on the safety of its operations and has introduced a number of proactive measures to protect the health and safety of its crews on its vessels as well as at onshore locations. A majority of the Partnership’s revenues are secured under medium term contracts that should not be materially affected by the short-term volatility in oil prices. The Partnership is continuing to closely monitor counterparty risk associated with its vessels under contract and will work to mitigate any potential impact on the business.
Securities Repurchase Program
In September 2020, the Partnership announced a program to repurchase the Partnership’s outstanding 8.50% Senior Notes due 2023 and Series A, B and E Preferred Units through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions and/or pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 plans, in compliance with applicable securities laws and other legal requirements.
The timing, volume, and nature of any repurchases will be determined by management, in consultation with the Board, based on evaluation of the capital needs of the business, trading prices, applicable legal requirements, and other factors. The Partnership currently expects to fund the repurchase program from cash on hand and/or drawings under its revolving credit facility with Brookfield Business Partners LP and its affiliates (collectively, Brookfield), which Brookfield has agreed to increase in an amount equivalent to the total amount invested by the Partnership in the aforementioned repurchase program.
Disputes
In May 2020, the Partnership was informed that the customer is claiming that the Bossa Nova shuttle tanker was off-hire, due to certain specification issues, from the end of March 2020 until the vessel was back on rate starting in early July 2020. Contractual discussions relating to the disputed off-hire period of 100 days are ongoing.
In June and July 2020, the Partnership was informed that the customer is disputing certain invoiced amounts related to the day rates and demobilization costs applied for the decommissioning of the Voyageur FPSO. Contractual discussions in third quarter were not concluded and continue in the fourth quarter.
In July 2020, an English court ruled in the Partnership's favor in a contract dispute related to the Voyageur FPSO, and awarded to the Partnership its full claim of $12 million and contractual interest. In September 2020, the customer made an application to the Court of Appeal.
In September, the Partnership reached a settlement agreement with Damen Ship Repair Rotterdam B.V related to the refurbishment of the Petrojarl I FPSO. The agreement resolves all aspects of the arbitration dispute commenced in 2017.with no further payments due from either party for the respective claims made.
Relocation
In September 2020, the board of directors of the general partner, approved a relocation of the principal office and place of business of the Partnership and the general partner from its current location in Bermuda to the UK and more specifically to the Partnership’s current office in Aberdeen, residing at Altera House, Unit 3, Prospect Park, Arnhall Business Park, Westhill, Aberdeenshire, AB32 6FJ, UK. In connection with this the Partnership will be closing its office in Bermuda and also relocating the headquarters of a number of subsidiaries from Bermuda to the UK and others to Norway. In so doing the Partnership aims to reduce the complexity of its group structure and better allow for future strategic management of the Partnership by the general partner from the UK and the management of certain underlying assets from Norway. The Partnership considers both the UK and Norway as highly suitable jurisdictions given the group’s history of substantial operations in the North Sea, the nexus to European sources of investment and funding and the ease of doing business in well-established corporate and legal environments. The general partner and Partnership plan to complete the relocation to the UK in December 2020.
Amended partnership agreement
In October, the Partnership agreement was amended to update the accounting principles from USGAAP to IFRS.
Financings
In August 2020, the Partnership agreed to amend the existing credit agreement for an unsecured revolving credit facility provided by Brookfield to increase the available amount by $100 million to $225 million, including accumulated interest, and extend the maturity date to October 31, 2024.
In August 2020, the Partnership completed a $75 million tap issue in its senior unsecured green bonds due October 18, 2024 and increased the total outstanding amount to $200 million.
In September 2020, the Partnership repaid the remaining $12 million secured debt on the Dampier Spirit FSO.
In October 2020, the Partnership completed a $106 million upsizing of the existing financing for the shuttle tankers currently operating off the East Coast of Canada. The upsizing is to partly fund a newbuilding shuttle tanker currently under construction and built for operation off the East Coast of Canada. The $100 million bridge loan for the same newbuild has consequently been terminated.
Liquidity Update
As at September 30, the Partnership had total liquidity of $237 million, a decrease of $4 million compared with the prior quarter. The decrease in total liquidity was primarily due to the delivery of two shuttle newbuilds, planned capital expenditures, and increase in restricted cash balances. All of which was offset by debt drawdowns during the quarter.
The Partnership continues to progress strategic plans to enhance the overall liquidity of the business. The Partnership is focused on managing discretionary spending as well as limiting planned capital expenditures to the committed shuttle tanker newbuilding program and mandatory vessel dry-dockings.
Økokrim Investigation
In January 2020, Økokrim (the Norwegian National Authority for Investigation and Prosecution of Economic and Environmental Crime) and the local Stavanger police raided Teekay Shipping Norway AS' premises, based on a search warrant related to suspected violations of pollution and export laws in connection with the export of the Navion Britannia shuttle tanker from the Norwegian Continental Shelf in March 2018 and the sale of the vessel for recycling in Alang, India in June 2018. Having reviewed relevant materials together with its advisors, the Partnership continues to believe it acted in accordance with the relevant rules and regulations and denies the alleged violations. The Partnership is continuing to cooperate with authorities in respect of this matter.
Changes to Board of Directors and Committees
Effective September 23, 2020, Jim Reid retired from his position as member of the Altera GP's Corporate Governance Committee.

Third Quarter 2020 Compared with Third Quarter 2019
The Partnership's FPSO segment generated adjusted EBITDA of $58 million, compared with $75 million in the same period in 2019. The decrease of $17 million is mainly due to the Voyageur FPSO completing its contract with Premier Oil from June 2020 and lower uptime on the Petrojarl I FPSO.
The Partnership's Shuttle Tanker segment generated adjusted EBITDA of $61 million, compared with $67 million in the same period in 2019. The decrease of $6 million is mainly due to lower North Sea CoA volumes, absence of contributions from vessels sold, fewer vessels operating on the Equinor master agreement, and E-Shuttle startup costs, partly offset by lower Time Charter in-hire expenses.
The Partnership's FSO segment generated adjusted EBITDA of $21 million, compared to $24 million in the same period in 2019. The decrease of $3 million is mainly due to the Dampier Spirit FSO and Apollo Spirit FSO contracts ending during the quarter and a change in amortization of contract revenue due to an extension of the Randgrid FSO contract.
The Partnership's UMS segment generated adjusted EBITDA of $(2) million, in line with the same quarter prior year.
The Partnership's Towage segment generated adjusted EBITDA of $1 million, compared with $(1) million in the same period in 2019. Results benefited from higher fleet utilization in the third quarter 2020.
Third Quarter 2020 Compared with Second Quarter 2020
The Partnership's FPSO segment generated adjusted EBITDA of $58 million, compared with $75 million in the prior quarter. The decrease of $17 million is mainly due to the Voyageur FPSO completing its contract from June 2020 and lower uptime on the Petrojarl I FPSO.
The Partnership's Shuttle Tanker segment generated adjusted EBITDA of $61 million, compared with $71 million in the prior quarter. The decrease of $10 million is mainly due to lower conventional spot rates, lower CoA volumes, fewer vessels operating on the Equinor master agreement, and the Navion Anglia shuttle tanker completing its contract with Suncor in early-September 2020.
The Partnership's FSO segment generated adjusted EBITDA of $21 million, compared with $16 million in the prior quarter. Results increased over prior quarter by $5 million mainly due to the absence of the termination fee on the Dampier Spirit FSO recorded in the second quarter, partly offset by a change in amortization of contract revenue due to an extension of the Randgrid FSO contract.
The Partnership's UMS segment generated adjusted EBITDA of $(2) million, in line with the prior quarter.
The Partnership's Towage segment generated adjusted EBITDA of $1 million, compared with $(6) million in the prior quarter. Results benefited from higher fleet utilization resulting from increased market activity.

Non-IFRS Measures
To supplement the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, we use Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-IFRS financial measure, as a measure of our performance. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income (loss) before interest expense, interest income, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization and is adjusted to exclude certain items whose timing or amount cannot be reasonably estimated in advance or that are not considered representative of core operating performance. Such adjustments include impairment expenses, gain (loss) on dispositions, net, unrealized gain (loss) on derivative instruments, foreign currency exchange gain (loss) and certain other income or expenses. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes: realized gain or loss on interest rate swaps, as we, in assessing our performance, view these gains or losses as an element of interest expense; realized gain or loss on derivative instruments resulting from amendments or terminations of the underlying instruments; and equity-accounted income (loss). Adjusted EBITDA also includes our proportionate share of Adjusted EBITDA from our equity-accounted investments and excludes the non-controlling interests' proportionate share of Adjusted EBITDA. We do not have control over the operations of, nor do we have any legal claim to the revenues and expenses of our equity-accounted investments. Consequently, the cash flow generated by our equity-accounted investments may not be available for use by us in the period that such cash flows are generated.
Adjusted EBITDA is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered as the sole measure of our performance or as a substitute for net income (loss) or other measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. In addition, this measure does not have a standardized meaning and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. These non-IFRS measures are used by our management, and we believe that these supplementary metrics assist investors and other users of our financial reports in comparing our financial and operating performance across reporting periods and with other companies.
