EARNINGS RELEASE
TEEKAY OFFSHORE PARTNERS
REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND ANNUAL RESULTS
Highlights
 
Generated distributable cash flow of $18.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2009, up from $13.4 million in the third quarter of 2009.
 
 
Declared and paid cash distribution of $0.45 per unit for the fourth quarter of 2009.
Hamilton, Bermuda, March 4, 2010 — Teekay Offshore GP LLC, the general partner of Teekay Offshore Partners L.P. (Teekay Offshore or the Partnership) (NYSE: TOO), today reported the Partnership’s results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2009. During the fourth quarter of 2009, the Partnership generated distributable cash flow(1) of $18.2 million, an increase from $13.4 million in the previous quarter, primarily as a result of the acquisition of the Petrojarl Varg floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) unit on September 10, 2009.
On January 27, 2010, the Partnership declared a cash distribution of $0.45 per unit for the quarter ended December 31, 2009. The cash distribution was paid on February 12, 2010, to all unitholders of record on February 5, 2010.
“2009 was a challenging year operationally for Teekay Offshore Partners,” commented Peter Evensen, Chief Executive Officer of Teekay Offshore GP L.L.C. “Distributable cash flow from our shuttle tanker segment was weaker than expected because of lower revenues caused primarily by new oil fields coming on line later than planned and higher operating expenses. We moved aggressively to manage costs and in the fourth quarter, distributable cashflow rebounded from the depressed levels of the second and third quarter as shuttle tanker operating expenses began to reduce and we completed the acquisition of the Petrojarl Varg FPSO. In 2010, we expect higher cashflows from both the existing shuttle tanker fleet as we continue to improve profitability and the Petrojarl Varg FPSO because of higher oil production.”
Teekay Offshore’s Fleet
The following table summarizes Teekay Offshore’s fleet as of February 28, 2010, including vessels owned by Teekay Offshore Operating L.P. (or OPCO), of which the Partnership owns a 51 percent interest:

Future Growth Opportunities
Pursuant to an Omnibus Agreement that Teekay Offshore entered into in connection with its initial public offering in December 2006, Teekay Corporation (Teekay) is obligated to offer to the Partnership its interest in certain shuttle tankers, floating storage and sffloading (FSO) units and FPSO units and joint ventures it may acquire in the future, provided the vessels are servicing contracts in excess of three years in length. Teekay Offshore also may acquire additional limited partner interests in OPCO or other vessels that Teekay may offer the Partnership from time to time in the future. Teekay currently owns 49 percent of OPCO and Teekay Offshore owns the remaining 51 percent, including a general partner interest.
Shuttle Tankers
Teekay has ordered four Aframax shuttle tanker newbuildings that are scheduled to deliver in 2010 and 2011, for a total cost of approximately $480 million. Pursuant to the Omnibus Agreement, Teekay is obligated to offer its interest in these vessels to Teekay Offshore within 365 days of the delivery of the vessels, provided the vessels are servicing time-charter contracts or contracts of affreightment in excess of three years.
FSO Unit
In December 2009, Teekay completed the conversion of one of its existing shuttle tankers to a FSO unit and the unit commenced operations in the Qatar offshore region under a 7.5 year fixed-rate charter (excluding a 1.5 year extension option) with a major oil company. Under the Omnibus Agreement, Teekay is obligated to offer its interest in this FSO project to the Partnership within 365 days after the commencement of the charter.
FPSO Units
Teekay Petrojarl, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Teekay, owns three units operating in the North Sea and operates for the Partnership the Petrojarl Varg FPSO, which the Partnership purchased from Teekay Petrojarl in September 2009 for $320 million. In addition, Teekay directly owns one FPSO unit operating in Brazil. Pursuant to existing agreements, the Partnership may acquire Teekay Petrojarl’s other FPSO units that are servicing contracts in excess of three years in length.
Teekay’s Remaining Interest in OPCO
Teekay may offer to Teekay Offshore additional limited partner interests in OPCO. Teekay currently owns 49 percent of OPCO and Teekay Offshore owns the remaining 51 percent, including a general partner interest.

Financial Summary
The Partnership reported adjusted net income attributable to the partners(1) (as detailed in Appendix A to this release) of $14.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2009, compared to $8.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2009. Adjusted net income attributable to the partners excludes a number of specific items that had the net effect of increasing net income by $12.0 million and decreasing net income by $21.8 million for the quarters ended December 31 and September 30, 2009, respectively, as detailed in Appendix A. Including these items, the Partnership reported, on a GAAP basis, net income attributable to the partners of $26.7 million (as detailed in Appendix A to this release) for the fourth quarter of 2009, compared to a net loss of $13.4 million(2) in the previous quarter. Net voyage revenues(3) for the fourth quarter of 2009 increased to $178.8 million from $175.1 million in the previous quarter.
The Partnership reported adjusted net income attributable to the partners(1) (as detailed in Appendix A to this release) of $37.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, compared to $34.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2008. Adjusted net income attributable to the partners excludes a number of specific items that had the net effect of increasing net income by $26.1 million and decreasing net income by $53.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, as detailed in Appendix A. Including these items, the Partnership reported, on a GAAP basis, net income attributable to the partners of $63.7 million (as detailed in Appendix A to this release) for the year ended December 31, 2009, compared to a net loss of $19.0 million(2). Net voyage revenues(3) for the year ended December 31, 2009 decreased to $710.8 million from $743.9 million in the previous year.
For accounting purposes, the Partnership is required to recognize, through the consolidated statements of income (loss), changes in the fair value of certain derivative instruments as unrealized gains or losses, through the consolidated statements of income (loss). This revaluation does not affect the economics of any hedging transactions or have any impact on the Partnership’s actual cash flows or the calculation of its distributable cash flow.
In accordance with GAAP, business acquisitions of entities under common control that have begun operations are required to be accounted for in a manner whereby the Partnership’s financial statements are retroactively adjusted to include the historical results of the acquired vessels from the date the vessels were originally under the control of Teekay. Accordingly, the Partnership has recast its historical financial results to include the results of the Petrojarl Varg FPSO for the periods prior to its September 10, 2009 acquisition, which pre-acquisition results are referred to in this release as the Dropdown Predecessor.
     
(1)  
Adjusted net income attributable to the partners is a non-GAAP financial measure. Please refer to Appendix A included in this release for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to the most directly comparable financial measure under GAAP and information about specific items affecting net income which are typically excluded by securities analysts in their published estimates of the Partnership’s financial results.
 
(2)  
Commencing in 2009 and applied retroactively, the Partnership’s net income (loss) is presented including non-controlling interest on the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss). Net income (loss) attributable to partners represents the net income (loss) attributable to the limited partners and general partner of Teekay Offshore.
 
(3)  
Net voyage revenues represents voyage revenues less voyage expenses, which comprise all expenses relating to certain voyages, including bunker fuel expenses, port fees, canal tolls and brokerage commissions. Net voyage revenues is a non-GAAP financial measure used by certain investors to measure the financial performance of shipping companies. Please see the Partnership’s web site at www.teekayoffshore.com for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure as used in this release to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

(2)  
Cash flow from vessel operations represents income from vessel operations before depreciation and amortization expense and amortization of deferred gains, and includes the realized gains (losses) on the settlements of foreign currency exchange forward contracts. Cash flow from vessel operations is a non-GAAP financial measure used by certain investors to measure the financial performance of shipping companies. Please see the Partnership’s web site at www.teekayoffshore.com for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure as used in this release to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
 
(3)  
Cash flow from vessel operations for the FPSO segment reflects only the cash flow generated by the Petrojarl Varg FPSO subsequent to its acquisition by the Partnership on September 10, 2009. Results for the Petrojarl Varg FPSO for the periods prior to its acquisition by the Partnership when it was owned and operated by Teekay are referred to as the Dropdown Predecessor.
Shuttle Tanker Segment
Cash flow from vessel operations from the Partnership’s shuttle tanker segment decreased to $35.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2009, compared to $37.1 million for the previous quarter, primarily due to increases in repairs and maintenance expenses and restructuring costs, and a decrease in net voyage revenues due to increased offhire and drydock days.

Conventional Tanker Segment
Cash flow from vessel operations from the Partnership’s conventional tanker segment increased to $18.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2009 from $17.5 million in the third quarter of 2009, primarily due to a decrease in drydock days.
FSO Segment
Cash flow from vessel operations from the Partnership’s FSO segment increased to $7.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2009 from $6.7 million in the third quarter of 2009, primarily due to a scheduled drydocking in the third quarter.
FPSO Segment
Cash flow from vessel operations from the Partnership’s FPSO segment increased to $11.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2009 from $3.4 million for the third quarter of 2009 as a result of the Partnership’s acquisition of the Petrojarl Varg FPSO on September 10, 2009. The results for the full fourth quarter included higher operating expenses primarily due to certain repairs and maintenance activities completed during the quarter and higher general and administrative costs, partially offset by higher revenues due to increased oil production (the Petrojarl Varg contract includes an upside tariff component based on the volume of oil produced).
Liquidity
As of December 31, 2009, the Partnership had total liquidity of $285.7 million, which consisted of $101.7 million in cash and cash equivalents and $184.0 million in undrawn revolving credit facilities.

The Partnership has entered into foreign exchange forward contracts, which are economic hedges for certain vessel operating expenses and general and administrative expenses. Certain of these forward contracts have been designated as cash flow hedges pursuant to GAAP. Unrealized gains and losses arising from hedge ineffectiveness from such forward contracts, including forward contracts relating to the Dropdown Predecessor (see Note 5 below), are reflected in vessel operating expenses, general and administrative expenses, and foreign exchange gains (losses) in the above Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) as detailed in the table below:

Restructuring charges were incurred in connection with the re-flagging of certain of the Partnership’s vessels, which are expected to result in lower future crewing costs. The Partnership expects to incur an additional $0.1 million in similar restructuring charges in the first quarter of 2010.

Commencing in 2009 and applied retroactively, the realized and unrealized gains and losses related to derivative instruments that are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes, including non-designated derivatives relating to the Dropdown Predecessor, have been reclassified to a separate line item in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss). The realized gains (losses) relate to the amounts the Partnership actually paid or received to settle such derivative instruments and the unrealized gains (losses) relate to the change in fair value of such derivative instruments as detailed in the table below:

APPENDIX B —RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURE

(in thousands of U.S. dollars)
Description of Non-GAAP Financial Measure — Distributable Cash Flow (DCF)
Distributable cash flow represents net income adjusted for depreciation and amortization expense, non-controlling interest, non-cash items, estimated maintenance capital expenditures, gains and losses on vessel sales, unrealized gains and losses from derivatives, non-cash income taxes, unrealized foreign exchange related items and income (loss) attributable to Dropdown Predecessor. Maintenance capital expenditures represent those capital expenditures required to maintain over the long-term the operating capacity of, or the revenue generated by, the Partnership’s capital assets. Distributable cash flow is a quantitative standard used in the publicly-traded partnership investment community to assist in evaluating a partnership’s ability to make quarterly cash distributions. Distributable cash flow is not defined by GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other indicator of the Partnership’s performance required by GAAP. The table below reconciles distributable cash flow to net income.

Net voyage revenues represents voyage revenues less voyage expenses, which comprise all expenses relating to certain voyages, including bunker fuel expenses, port fees, canal tolls and brokerage commissions. Net voyage revenues is a non-GAAP financial measure used by certain investors to measure the financial performance of shipping companies. Please see the Partnership’s web site at www.teekayoffshore.com for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure as used in this release to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
 
(2)  
Commencing in 2009 and applied retroactively, the gains and losses related to derivative instruments that are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes have been reclassified to a separate line item in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) and are no longer included in the amounts above.
 
(3)  
Income from operations for the Petrojarl Varg FPSO for the periods prior to its September 10, 2009 acquisition by the Partnership when it was owned and operated by Teekay Corporation, are required by GAAP to be included in our results for such prior periods.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This release contains forward-looking statements (as defined in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) which reflect management’s current views with respect to certain future events and performance, including statements regarding: the Partnership’s future growth prospects; profitability of our shuttle tankers; the potential for Teekay to offer additional vessels to the Partnership, and the Partnership’s acquisitions of any such vessels; the potential for Teekay to offer to the Partnership additional limited partner interests in OPCO; the Partnership’s exposure to foreign currency fluctuations; and lower crewing expenses for re-flagged vessels. The following factors are among those that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements, which involve risks and uncertainties, and that should be considered in evaluating any such statement: vessel operations and production volumes of the Petrojarl Varg FPSO; failure of Teekay to offer to the Partnership additional vessels or ownership interests in OPCO; required approvals by the Conflicts Committee of Teekay Offshore’s general partner to acquire from Teekay vessels or ownership interests in OPCO; the Partnership’s ability to raise financing to purchase additional vessels and/or interests in OPCO; changes to the amount or proportion of revenues, expenses, or debt service costs denominated in foreign currencies; revenue generated by our shuttle tankers under contracts of affreightment; and other factors discussed in Teekay Offshore’s filings from time to time with the SEC, including its Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. The Partnership expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect any change in the Partnership’s expectations with respect thereto or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based.
