ALTERA INFRASTRUCTURE L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
As at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020
(all tabular amounts stated in thousands of U.S. Dollars, except unit and per unit data)

1.Nature and Description of the Partnership

Altera Infrastructure L.P. and its wholly-owned or controlled subsidiaries (collectively, the Partnership) is an international infrastructure services provider to the offshore oil and gas industry, focused on the ownership and operation of critical infrastructure assets in offshore oil regions of the North Sea, Brazil and the East Coast of Canada. The Partnership was formed as a limited partnership established under the laws of the Republic of the Marshall Islands in August 2006 and the Partnership's affairs are governed by the Marshall Islands Limited Partnership Act and its limited partnership agreement as amended. The Partnership is a subsidiary of Brookfield Business Partners L.P. (NYSE: BBU) (TSX: BBU.UN) (or with its affiliates, Brookfield).

The Partnership’s preferred equity units are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbols “ALIN PR A”, “ALIN PR B” and “ALIN PR E” respectively.

The registered head office of the Partnership is Altera House, Unit 3, Prospect Park, Arnhall Business Park, Westhill, Aberdeenshire, AB32 6FJ, United Kingdom.

2.Significant Accounting Policies

a.Basis of presentation

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Partnership have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 - Interim Financial Reporting (or IAS 34), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (or IASB). These interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Partnership’s annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2020, which are included in the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2020. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that the Partnership operates on a going concern basis and have been presented in U.S. dollars rounded to the nearest thousand unless otherwise indicated.

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Partnership’s annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2020, except for the adoption of new standards and changes in the Partnership's accounting policies effective as of 1 January 2021, as described below in Note 2c. There have been no significant changes to the method of determining significant estimates and judgments since December 31, 2020.

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements were approved by management and authorized for issue on May 3, 2021.

b.Going concern

As at March 31, 2021, the Partnership had a working capital deficit of $267.4 million primarily relating to scheduled maturities and repayments of $349.9 million of outstanding borrowings during the 12 months ending March 31, 2022, which amounts were classified as current as at March 31, 2021. The Partnership also anticipates making payments related to commitments to fund a vessel under construction during the remainder of 2021 through 2022 of $99.4 million; however, the Partnership has secured long-term financing related to this vessel.

The working capital deficit of $267.4 million as at March 31, 2021, has increased from $230.5 million as at December 31, 2020. The increase in the working capital deficit was primarily due to a decrease in financial assets of $54.9 million mainly relating to amounts held in escrow for a shuttle tanker newbuilding yard installment payment as at December 31, 2020 and a decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $38.7 million, partially offset by a decrease in total current liabilities primarily relating to the termination or amendment of certain interest rate swaps during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Based on these factors, the Partnership will need to obtain additional sources of financing, in addition to amounts generated from operations, to meet its obligations and commitments and the minimum liquidity requirements under its financial covenants. Additional potential sources of financing that the Partnership is actively pursuing, or may consider pursuing, during the one-year period to March 31, 2022, include entering into new debt facilities, borrowing additional amounts under existing facilities, the refinancing or extension of certain borrowings, selling certain assets, seeking joint venture partners for the Partnership's business interests and/or capital raises. Additional potential sources of amounts generated from operations include the extensions and redeployment of existing assets.

The Partnership is actively pursuing the financing initiatives described above, which it considers probable of completion based on the Partnership’s history of being able to raise and refinance borrowings for similar types of vessels and based on the Partnership's assessment of current conditions and estimated future conditions. The Partnership is in various stages of progression on these matters.

Based on the Partnership’s liquidity at the date of these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, the liquidity it expects to generate from operations over the following year, and by incorporating the Partnership’s plans to raise additional liquidity that it considers probable of completion, the Partnership expects that it will have sufficient liquidity to enable the Partnership to continue as a going concern for at least the one-year period to March 31, 2022.

c.New standards, interpretations, amendments and policies adopted by the Partnership

The Partnership has not early adopted any standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective.

i.Interest Rate Benchmark Reform — Phase 2 (Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16)

In August 2020, the International Accounting Standards Board published Interest Rate Benchmark Reform — Phase 2 (Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16) (or Phase 2 Amendments), effective January 1, 2021. The Phase 2 Amendments provide additional guidance to address the issues that will arise during the transition of benchmark interest rates and primarily relate to the modification of financial assets, financial liabilities and lease liabilities where the basis for determining the contractual cash flow changes as a result of the replacement of an existing interest rate benchmark, allowing for prospective application of the new applicable benchmark interest rate, and to the application of hedge accounting, providing an exception such that changes in the designation of hedge accounting relationships that are needed to reflect the changes required by the benchmark interest rate reform do not result in the discontinuation of hedge accounting. The Partnership adopted the Phase 2 Amendments on January 1, 2021. The adoption of this amendment did not have an impact on the Partnership's unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as at and for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The Partnership's risk management strategy has not changed as a result of this.

Progress towards implementation of alternative benchmark interest rates

The Partnership is exposed to the impact of interest rate changes, primarily through its floating-rate borrowings that require it to make interest payments based on LIBOR. The Partnership uses interest rate swaps to reduce its exposure to market risk from changes in interest rates.

The Partnership plans to transition the majority of its LIBOR-linked contracts to risk-free rates through amendments to fallback clauses in its floating-rate credit facilities and debt instruments which would change the basis for determining the interest rate cash flows from LIBOR to a risk-free rate at an agreed point in time. During March 2021, ICE Benchmark Administration announced that it has delayed the cessation of the publication of the overnight, one, three, six and 12 month USD LIBOR until June 30, 2023.

Interest rate benchmark transition for non-derivative financial liabilities

As at March 31, 2021, the Partnership had $1.8 billion of outstanding LIBOR-referenced borrowings summarized as follows:

PrincipalWeighted-average termTransition Progress
$(years)
Revolving Credit Facilities415,367 2.85Expected to amend fallback clauses prior to cessation of publication of LIBOR.
Term Loans1,219,674 4.41
Public Bonds200,000 3.55
Total1,835,041 3.96

Interest rate benchmark transition for derivatives

As at March 31, 2021, the Partnership had an outstanding notional balance of $0.8 billion of LIBOR-referenced interest rate swap agreements.

For all of the Partnership’s LIBOR-referenced derivatives, the International Swaps and Derivative Association’s fallback clauses were made available in late-2020 and the Partnership and its counterparties expect to adhere to this protocol. This ensures that all legacy trade will, on the cessation of LIBOR, follow the fallback clause provided in the protocol.

ii.Segments

As at January 1, 2021, the disclosure of the Partnership's corporate cost allocations to the segments was modified. The Partnership's components of the business for which discrete financial information is reviewed to assess performance and make decisions regarding resource allocation is still based upon five operating segments. However, the allocation of certain expenditures, relating to direct operating costs and general and administrative expenses, has been modified to show the impact of certain corporate direct operating costs in the corporate segment before reallocation to the segments. Additionally, certain expenditures that relate directly to corporate activities will be retained within the corporate segment. Previously all of these expenditures were allocated directly to the five operating segments based on an estimated use of corporate resources. The 2020 comparative information has been restated as a result of this change.

iii.Estimation uncertainty

COVID-19

The Partnership has not identified any new significant developments related to the COVID-19 pandemic which would impact key critical judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported and contingent amount of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses,

(4)Includes derivative instruments, obligations relating to finance leases and other financial liabilities. Refer to Note 10 below.

The fair value of all financial assets and liabilities as at March 31, 2021 approximated their carrying values, with the exception of the borrowings, where fair value which was determined using Level 1 and Level 2 inputs and resulted in a fair value of $3,127 million (December 31, 2020: $3,104 million) compared to a carrying value of $3,149 million (December 31, 2020: $3,171 million). The fair value of the Partnership’s borrowings is either based on quoted market prices or estimated using discounted cash flow analysis based on rates currently available for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities and the current credit worthiness of the Partnership.

Fair value hierarchical levels - financial instruments

For assets and liabilities that are recognized at fair value on a recurring basis, the Partnership determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Partnership’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, including liquidity risk, interest rate risk, foreign currency risk and credit risk. The Partnership selectively uses derivative financial instruments principally to manage certain of these risks.

Total non-current— 11,136 — 13,950 

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Partnership is exposed to the impact of interest rate changes, primarily through its floating-rate borrowings that require it to make interest payments based on LIBOR. Significant increases in interest rates could adversely affect operating margins, results of operations and the Partnership's ability to service its debt. The Partnership uses interest rate swaps to reduce its exposure to market risk from changes in interest rates. The principal objective of these contracts is to minimize the risks and costs associated with the Partnership's floating-rate debt.

The Partnership enters into interest rate swaps, which exchange a receipt of floating interest for a payment of fixed interest, to reduce the Partnership’s exposure to interest rate variability on its outstanding floating-rate debt. The Partnership has not designated, for accounting purposes, any of its interest rate swaps as hedges of variable rate debt. Certain of the Partnership's interest rate swaps are secured by vessels.

In February 2021, the Partnership terminated two and amended two of its interest rate swap agreements, which as at December 31, 2020, had a total notional amount of $600.3 million and a total fair value liability of $147.5 million. These interest rate swaps included early termination provisions, which if exercised, would have terminated these interest rate swaps in February 2021. Following the terminations and amendments, the total notional amount relating to the two remaining interest rate swap agreements will be reduced to $132.0 million in April 2021. These agreements include mandatory termination provisions which terminate these interest rate swaps February 2022.

Page 12 of 34



In March 2021, the Partnership terminated one of its interest rate swaps, which as at December 31, 2020, had a notional value of $90.4 million and a fair value liability of $37.1 million. This interest rate swap included an early termination provision, which was exercised in March 2021.

As at March 31, 2021, the Partnership has deferred a total of $6.9 million of interest payments. Any outstanding principal balances are due on the maturity date. The Partnership previously determined that as the interest rate under the facility was deemed to be at below market terms, Brookfield was acting in its capacity as an equity owner, and the Partnership recorded a $37.1 million decrease in the carrying value of the facility, which was classified as an equity contribution in the Partnership's unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of changes in equity during the year ended December 31, 2020. As at March 31, 2021, the Partnership was in compliance with the covenant requirements of this revolving credit facility.

b)During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Partnership entered into an unsecured revolving credit facility provided by Brookfield, which provides for borrowings of up to $30 million and as at March 31, 2021, had an undrawn balance of $nil.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Partnership determined that the interest rate under the facility was deemed to be at below market terms and therefore, Brookfield was acting in its capacity as an equity owner. The Partnership recorded a $0.6 million decrease in the carrying value of the facility, which was classified as an equity contribution in the Partnership's unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of changes in equity during the three months ended March 31, 2021. As at March 31, 2021, the Partnership was in compliance with the covenant requirements of this revolving credit facility.

d)On July 2, 2018, the Partnership issued, in a U.S. private placement, a total of $700.0 million of five-year senior unsecured bonds that mature in July 2023.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Partnership also generated revenues from the operation of volatile organic compound (VOC) systems on certain of the Partnership’s shuttle tankers, and from the management of certain vessels on behalf of the disponent owners or charterers of those vessels.

The following tables contain the Partnership’s revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, by contract type and by segment:

15.Segment Information

For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Partnership's operations were organized into five operating segments: FPSO, shuttle tanker, FSO, UMS and towage.

These operating segments are regularly reviewed by the Partnership's Chief Operating Decision Maker (or CODM) for the purpose of allocating resources to the segment and to assess its performance. The key measure used by the CODM in assessing performance and in making resource allocation decisions is Adjusted EBITDA, which is calculated as net income (loss) before interest expense, interest income, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization, 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 management, in assessing the Partnership's performance, views 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; realized gain or loss on foreign currency forward contracts; and equity-accounted income (loss). Adjusted EBITDA also includes the Partnership's proportionate share of Adjusted EBITDA from its equity-accounted investments and excludes the non-controlling interests' proportionate share of Adjusted EBITDA. The Partnership does not have control over the operations of, nor does it have any legal claim to the revenues and expenses of its equity-accounted investments. Consequently, the cash flow generated by the Partnership’s equity-accounted investments may not be available for use by the Partnership in the period that such cash flows are generated.

PART I – FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview of Our Business

We are a leading global energy infrastructure services provider primarily focused on the ownership and operation of critical infrastructure assets in the offshore oil regions of the North Sea, Brazil and the East Coast of Canada. We currently operate floating production, storage and off-loading (or FPSO) units, shuttle tankers, floating storage and off-take (or FSO) units, a unit for maintenance and safety (or UMS) and long-distance towage and offshore installation (or towage) vessels and our operations are organized into these five corresponding operating segments. As at March 31, 2021, our fleet was as follows:

(iii)

FSO Segment— —

Total49 1 1 51 
(i)Includes two FPSO units, the Cidade de Itajai and Pioneiro de Libra, in which our ownership interest is 50 percent and also includes two units which are currently in lay-up.
(ii)Includes three shuttle tankers in which our ownership interest is 50 percent. All of our operating shuttle tankers provide transportation services to energy companies predominately in the North Sea, Brazil and the East Coast of Canada. Our shuttle tankers occasionally service the conventional spot tanker market and we occasionally charter-in shuttle tankers in the spot market.
(iii)Includes one DP2 shuttle tanker newbuildings scheduled for delivery in early-2022, which will operate under an existing contract off the East Coast of Canada.

Global crude oil and gas prices have largely recovered from the uncertainty regarding demand created by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, as the timing of the ongoing global immunization effort, including the effectiveness of the vaccines, and the severity of outbreaks of variants of the virus are still highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, the long-term impact of the pandemic on our business, financial condition and operating results cannot be determined. Our business involves the ownership and operation of critical infrastructure assets in offshore oil regions and any significant decrease in demand for crude oil could adversely affect the demand for our vessels and the types of services we offer. Additionally, a continuation of the pandemic may result in reduced cash flow and financial condition, including potential liquidity constraints and potential reduced access to capital as a result of any credit tightening generally or due to continued declines in global financial markets. Our business model is to employ our vessels on fixed-rate contracts with oil companies, typically with terms between three and ten years, and therefore we do not expect any significant near-term impact on our liquidity, except for a decline in activity in the spot markets serviced mainly by our towage vessels. Potential effects of the pandemic include, among others, force majeure claims relating to existing contracts, increased counterparty risk and/or default, fewer contract extension opportunities, and in the worst case, contract terminations resulting from relevant early field abandonment programs. As at March 31, 2021, we have not experienced any material business disruptions or a direct material financial impact as a result of the pandemic and we are actively pursuing additional steps to preserve liquidity and our financial flexibility. Our operational focus over the short-term is to focus on extending contracts and the redeployment of our assets that are scheduled to come off charter over the next few years.

Significant Developments

Delivery of Shuttle Tanker Newbuildings

In January 2021, we took delivery of the fifth LNG-fueled DP2 shuttle tanker newbuilding, the Altera Wave. The vessel has commenced operations and is trading as part of our CoA fleet in the North Sea. The sixth LNG fueled vessel, the Altera Wind, was delivered in March 2021 and has arrived in Norway for testing, while the seventh newbuilding is expected to be delivered early in 2022 and to operate off the East Coast of Canada.

Financings

In February 2021, we terminated two and amended a further two interest rate swaps that contained early termination provisions, which, if exercised, would have terminated these interest rate swaps during 2021.

In February 2021, we refinanced an existing term loan relating to the financing of the Petrojarl I FPSO unit, which provides for borrowings of $75.0 million and matures in February 2024.

In February 2021, we entered into two unsecured revolving credit facilities with Brookfield. The borrowings available under the two unsecured
revolving credit facilities are $70.0 million and $30.0 million, respectively, and mature in February 2022.

Revenues

Revenues decreased to $273 million, from $312 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to the same period last year, primarily due to a decrease in our FPSO, shuttle tanker and FSO segments, as described below:

FPSO Segment

Revenues decreased in our FPSO segment to $108 million, from $116 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to the same period last year, primarily due to:
a decrease of $16 million due to lower uptime for the Petrojarl I FPSO unit during the three months ended March 31, 2021, as a result of operational issues;
a decrease of $11 million due to the Voyageur Spirit FPSO unit ceasing operations under its contract in June 2020; and
a decrease of $4 million mainly due to a reduction in the charter rate on the Knarr FPSO as a result of a March 2020 contract amendment relating to the unit;
partially offset by
an increase of $23 million due to providing operational services for the Foinaven FPSO unit, which commenced operations under a new contract in March 2020; and
an increase of $2 million due to the recharge of direct operating costs to our joint ventures (offset by an increase in direct operating costs of $2 million as noted below).

Shuttle Tanker Segment

Revenues decreased in our shuttle tanker segment to $138 million, from $150 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to the same period last year, primarily due to:
a decrease of $11 million due to the redelivery to us of the Navion Anglia, Navion Bergen and Navion Gothenburg shuttle tankers during 2020;
a decrease of $9 million due to lower rates and less operating days in the conventional tanker market in which our shuttle tankers occasionally operate; and
a decrease of $3 million due to lower utilization in the CoA fleet;
partially offset by
Page 23 of 34



an increase of $8 million due to compensation for contractual dry-docking obligations not performed by the charterer upon redelivery of the Navion Gothenburg shuttle tanker; and
an increase of $4 million due to an increase in operating days under a master agreement with Equinor ASA.

FSO Segment

Revenues decreased in our FSO segment to $19 million, from $35 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to the same period last year, primarily due to:
a decrease of $11 million due to lower charter rates following a contract extension for the Randgrid FSO unit in June 2020; and
a decrease of $6 million due to the absence of contribution from the Dampier Spirit FSO and Apollo Spirit FSO, as their contracts ended in the third quarter of 2020.

Corporate Segment/Eliminations

Revenue eliminations of $5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 related to the internal tows of the Dampier Spirit FSO unit and Foinaven FPSO unit by vessels in our towage segment.

Direct Operating Costs

Direct operating costs increased to $162 million, from $154 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to the same period last year, primarily due to increased operating costs in our FPSO and towage segments, partially offset by decreased operating costs in our shuttle tanker and corporate segments, as described below:

FPSO Segment

Direct operating costs increased in our FPSO segment to $71 million, from $47 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to the same period last year, primarily due to:
an increase of $16 million due to providing operational services for the Foinaven FPSO unit, which commenced operations under a new contract in March 2020;
an increase of $2 million due to the Rosebank post concept study;
an increase of $2 million in onshore compensation;
an increase of $2 million due to direct operating costs relating to our joint ventures (offset by an increase in revenues of $2 million as noted above); and
an increase of $2 million due to an internal tow of the Foinaven FPSO in 2021;
partially offset by
a decrease of $4 million due to the completion of the charter contract for the Voyageur Spirit FPSO unit in June 2020.

Towage Segment

Direct operating costs increased in our towage segment to $14 million, from $12 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to the same period last year, primarily due to higher utilization.

Shuttle Tanker Segment

Direct operating costs decreased in our shuttle tanker segment to $63 million, from $78 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to the same period last year, primarily due to:
a decrease of $5 million due to less time-charter hire in 2021 compared to 2020;
a decrease of $4 million due to lower utilization in the CoA fleet;
a decrease of $4 million due to certain vessels leaving the fleet; and
a decrease of $3 million due to lower pool expenses and less operating days in the conventional tanker market in which our shuttle tankers occasionally operate.
partially offset by
an increase of $2 million due to four shuttle tanker newbuildings entering the fleet in late-2020 and early-2021.

Corporate Segment/Eliminations

Direct operating costs decreased in our corporate segment to $4 million, from $8 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to the same period last year, primarily due to $5 million in eliminations related to the internal tow of the Dampier Spirit FSO unit and Foinaven FPSO unit in 2021.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses decreased to $13 million, from $15 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to the same period last year, primarily due to a decrease in corporate function carve-out costs.

Page 24 of 34



Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased to $77 million, from $79 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to the same period last year, primarily due to decreases in our FPSO and FSO segments, partially offset by an increase in our shuttle tanker segment, as described below:

FPSO Segment

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased in our FPSO segment to $21 million, from $25 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to the same period last year, primarily due to the impairment of certain of our FPSO units during 2020.

FSO Segment

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased in our FSO segment to $8 million, from $10 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to the same period last year, primarily due to the impairment of the Randgrid FSO unit during 2020.

Shuttle Tanker Segment

Depreciation and amortization expense increased in our shuttle tanker segment to $43 million, from $38 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to same period last year, primarily due to four shuttle tanker newbuildings entering the fleet in late-2020 and early-2021, partially offset by the sale and impairment of certain vessels.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $48 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, which is consistent with $48 million for the same period last year. Interest expense was impacted by lower interest rates during the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to the same period last year. This was offset by an increase in the total amount drawn under our unsecured revolving credit facilities with Brookfield.

Equity-Accounted Income (Loss)

Equity-accounted income was $19 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to a loss of $4 million for the same period last year. The increase in equity-accounted income was primarily due to a $6 million realized and unrealized gain on derivative instruments held within our equity-accounted investments for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to a $15 million realized and unrealized loss for the same period last year, mainly as a result of an increase in long-term LIBOR benchmark rates during the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to a decrease in long-term LIBOR benchmark rates during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Impairment Expense, Net

Impairment expense, net was $nil for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to $172 million for the same period last year, primarily due to impairment expenses recorded in our FPSO, shuttle tanker and towage segments for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as described below:

FPSO Segment

Impairment expense, net in our FPSO segment was $126 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, due to a $57 million impairment recorded on the Petrojarl Knarr FPSO unit and a $42 million impairment of the Petrojarl I FPSO unit due to changes in the expected earnings of the units as a result of a decline in crude oil prices during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and a $27 million impairment recorded on the Petrojarl Varg FPSO unit as a result of a reassessment of the future redeployment opportunities for the unit.

Shuttle Tanker Segment

Impairment expense, net in our shuttle tanker segment was $23 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, due to a $17 million impairment of the Navion Gothenburg as a result of a change in the expected operating plans for the vessel, a $4 million impairment of the Navion Stavanger as a result of a change in the expected earnings for the vessel and a $2 million impairment of the Navion Bergen due to the expected sale of the vessel.

Towage Segment

Impairment expense, net in our towage segment was $23 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as a result of impairments on the ALP Forward, ALP Winger, ALP Ippon and ALP Ace due to changes in the expected earnings of the vessels.

Realized and Unrealized Gain (Loss) on Derivative Instruments

Net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on derivative instruments was $14 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to $(91) million for the same period last year and were comprised of the following:

162,257 (83,849)
Total realized and unrealized gain (loss) on derivative instruments13,860 (90,923)

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we recognized realized losses of $146 million on our interest rate swaps as a result of the termination or amendment of certain of our interest rate swaps. Realized losses on our interest rate swaps for the three months ended March 31, 2021, were otherwise consistent with the same period last year. We also recognized unrealized gains on interest rate swaps of $166 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to unrealized losses of $75 million during the same period last year. The increase in unrealized gains was primarily due to the termination or amendment of certain of our interest rate swaps during the three months ended March 31, 2021, as described above, in conjunction with an increase in long-term LIBOR benchmark rates, compared to a decrease in long-term LIBOR benchmark rates during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, we were committed to foreign currency forward contracts to hedge portions of our forecasted expenditures in Norwegian Krone (or NOK) and Euros, which resulted in realized gains (losses) of $4 million and $(1) million during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. We also recognized unrealized losses on our foreign currency forward contracts of $3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to $8 million for the same period last year, mainly due to a favorable forward spread as at March 31, 2021, compared to an unfavorable spread as at March 31, 2020.

Foreign Currency Exchange Gain (Loss)

Foreign currency exchange gain (loss) was $nil million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to $(3) million for the same period last year. Our foreign currency exchange gain (loss) is due primarily to the relevant period-end revaluations of NOK-denominated monetary assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes. Gains on NOK-denominated net monetary liabilities reflect a stronger U.S. Dollar against the NOK on the date of revaluation or settlement compared to the rate in effect at the beginning of the period. Losses on NOK-denominated net monetary liabilities reflect a weaker U.S. Dollar against the NOK on the date of revaluation or settlement compared to the rate in effect at the beginning of the period.

Income Tax (Expense) Recovery

Income tax (expense) recovery was $(1) million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to $(4) million for the same period last year. The decrease in income tax expense was primarily due to a deferred expense recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2020, due to a decrease in the expected use of tax losses in Norway.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA decreased to $120 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to $164 million for the same period last year. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in revenue and an increase in direct costs in our FPSO segment and a decrease in revenue in our FSO segment, as described above.


Non-IFRS Financial 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 represents net income (loss) before interest expense, interest income, income tax (expense) recovery, 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 our 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; realized gain or loss on foreign currency forward contracts; 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. This non-IFRS measure is used by our
Page 26 of 34



management, and we believe that this supplementary metric assists investors and other users of our financial reports in comparing our financial and operating performance across reporting periods and with other companies.

The following table reconciles Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is managed primarily through cash flows from operations, use of credit facilities and refinancing existing debt. We aim to maintain sufficient financial liquidity to meet our ongoing operating requirements.

The following table presents our liquidity as at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

222,078 235,734 
Working capital surplus (deficit)(267,352)(230,494)
(1)Defined as cash, cash equivalents and undrawn revolving credit facilities

The increase in the working capital deficit was primarily due to a decrease in financial assets of $55 million mainly relating to amounts held in escrow for a shuttle tanker newbuilding yard installment payment as at December 31, 2020 and a decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $39 million, partially offset by a decrease in total current liabilities primarily relating to the termination or amendment of certain interest rate swaps during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Our primary short-term liquidity needs are to pay existing committed capital expenditures, to make scheduled repayments of debt and related interest rate swaps, to pay debt service costs, to make quarterly distributions on outstanding preferred units, to pay operating expenses and dry-docking expenditures, to fund general working capital requirements, to settle claims and potential claims against us and to manage our working capital deficit.

Our long-term liquidity needs are to repay or refinance scheduled debt obligations and pursue additional growth projects. Based on upcoming capital requirements for our committed growth projects and scheduled debt repayment obligations, we believe it is in the best interests of our common unitholders to conserve more of our internally generated cash flows to fund these projects and to reduce debt levels. We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources. As at March 31, 2021, our cash requirements from known contractual and other obligations were as follows:

Please refer to Item 1 – Financial Statements: Note 10 – Other Financial Liabilities for a summary of the terms of our derivative instruments which economically hedge certain of our floating rate interest-bearing obligations.
(3)Consists of the undiscounted cash requirements to settle our lease obligations relating to our office leases and in-chartered vessels.
(4)Consists of the estimated remaining payments for the acquisition of one shuttle tanker newbuilding. Please refer to Item 1 – Financial Statements: Note 8 – Advances on Newbuilding Contracts. We have secured $84.5 million of undrawn borrowings relating to this shuttle tanker newbuilding commitment.

Primarily as a result of the working capital deficit and committed capital expenditures, during the one-year period from March 31, 2021, we will need to obtain additional sources of financing, in addition to amounts generated from operations, to meet our obligations and commitments and the minimum liquidity requirements under our financial covenants in our credit facilities. Additional potential sources of financing that we are actively pursuing, or may consider pursuing, during the one-year period from March 31, 2021, include entering into new debt facilities, borrowing additional amounts under existing facilities, the refinancing or extension of certain borrowings, selling certain assets, seeking joint venture partners for our business interests and/or capital raises. Based on our liquidity at the date of these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, the liquidity we expect to generate from operations over the following year, and by incorporating our plans to raise additional liquidity that we consider probable of completion, we expect that we will have sufficient liquidity to meet our existing liquidity needs for at least the one-year period from March 31, 2021. Refer to Item 1 – Financial Statements: Note 2b - Going Concern for additional information.

As at March 31, 2021, we had total borrowings outstanding of $3,187 million compared to $3,211 million as at December 31, 2020 and as at March 31, 2021, we were in compliance with all covenants relating to our consolidated borrowings. Our borrowings consist of the following:

Net financing cash flow105,356 20,891 
Net investing cash flow(115,287)(96,867)

Operating Cash Flows

Net cash flow from operating activities decreased to a cash outflow of $29 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to an inflow of $85 million for the same period last year, primarily due to an increase to $152 million in realized losses on interest rate swaps during the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to $6 million during the same period last year, which was a result of the termination or partial termination of certain interest rate swaps during the three months ended March 31, 2021. This was partially offset by changes in non-cash working capital items which provided for a contribution of $39 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to a shortfall
Page 29 of 34



of $18 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The increase in non-cash working capital items for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to the same period last year is primarily due to the timing of payments received from customers and made to vendors.

Net cash flow from operating activities also decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to the same period last year, due to a decrease in revenues and an increase in direct operating costs. Refer to "Results of Operations" above.

Financing Cash Flows

We use our revolving credit facilities to finance capital expenditures and for general corporate purposes. Occasionally, we will do this until longer-term financing is obtained, at which time we typically use all or a portion of the proceeds from the longer-term financings to prepay outstanding amounts under the revolving credit facilities. Our proceeds from borrowings, net of financing costs, were $74 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, and $72 million for the same period last year.

We actively manage the maturity profile of our outstanding financing arrangements. Our scheduled repayments of our borrowings were $99 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to $74 million for the same period last year. The increase in repayments is mainly due to the refinancing of one existing debt facility during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Our proceeds from borrowings, net of financing costs and scheduled repayments, related to the sale and leaseback of vessels, were $69 million and $12 millions for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The gross proceeds were used to fund installment payments on certain of the shuttle tanker newbuildings.

During the three month ended March 31, 2021, we entered into two additional unsecured credit facilities with Brookfield. As at March 31, 2021, the total of three unsecured revolving credit facilities provided for total borrowings of up to $325 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we drew down $75 million related to these credit facilities. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we drew down $30 million related to one existing facility.

Lease payments on our vessel in-charter leases and office leases were $3 million and $6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Cash distributions paid to our preferred unitholders were $8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020. Subsequent to March 31, 2021, we declared aggregate cash distributions of $8 million for our Series A, Series B and Series E Preferred Units relating to the first quarter of 2021 that will be paid on May 17, 2021.

Investing Cash Flows

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, net cash flow used for investing activities was $115 million, primarily related to $156 million for additions to vessels and equipment, including installment payments for the delivery of two shuttle tanker newbuildings, partially offset by a $42 million decrease in restricted cash, primarily related to a $74 million reduction to amounts held in escrow for the final installment payment for one of the above mentioned shuttle tanker newbuildings, partially offset by cash sweep requirements under a previously amended loan agreement.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, net cash flow used for investing activities was $97 million, primarily relating to $202 million for additions to vessels and equipment, including installment payments on the shuttle tanker newbuildings, partially offset by an $84 million decrease in restricted cash, primarily related to a $89 million reduction to amounts held in escrow for the final installment payment for one shuttle tanker newbuilding, proceeds of $15 million from the sales of the Navion Hispania and Stena Sirita shuttle tankers and the Petrojarl Cidade de Rio das Ostras FPSO unit and $6 million of cash acquired during the acquisition of one company.

The preparation of financial statements requires us to make critical judgments, estimates and assumptions in the application of our accounting policies that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources, during the reporting period. These estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Our management reviews our accounting policies, critical judgments, estimates and assumptions on a regular basis. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates and such differences could be material. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

For further information on our material accounting policies, critical accounting judgments and estimates see Part I, Item 18 - Financial Statements: Note 2v. - Critical accounting judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty and Part I, Item 5B. Liquidity and Capital Resources - Critical Accounting Estimates in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2020.


ITEM 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our direct exposure to market risk results from fluctuations in interest rates foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices. There have been no material changes to our market risks as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2020.

ITEM 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the U.S. Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.

Remediation

As previously described in Part II, Item 15 of our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2020, we began implementing a remediation plan to address a material weakness due to the existence of control deficiencies related to user access management within the IT environment. The weakness will not be considered remediated, until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively. We expect that the remediation of this material weakness will be completed during the year ended December 31, 2021.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1 – Legal Proceedings

Occasionally we have been, and expect to continue to be, subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of our business, principally personal injury and property casualty claims. These claims, even if lacking merit, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources.

Please read Part III, Item 18. – Financial Statements: Note 17 – Provisions and Contingencies in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2020 and Item 1 - Financial Statements: Note 9 - Accounts Payable and Other in this Report on Form 6-K for a description of certain claims made against us.

Item 1A – Risk Factors

In addition to the other information set forth in this Report on Form 6-K, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Part I, Item 3 - Key Information - D. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2020, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or results of operations and the price and value of our securities.

Use of LIBOR is currently scheduled to cease in the future, and interest rates on our LIBOR-based obligations may increase in the future.

LIBOR is the subject of recent national, international and other regulatory guidance and proposals for reform. In March 2021, the UK Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, announced that it will cease the publication of LIBOR after December 31, 2021, with the exception of certain tenors of U.S. dollar LIBOR which will cease publication after June 30, 2023. It is unclear whether an extension will be granted or new methods of calculating LIBOR will be established such that it continues to exist after the scheduled expiration dates, or if alternative rates will be adopted. Global regulators are working with the financial sector to transition away from the use of LIBOR and towards the adoption of alternative reference rates. For example, the U.S. Federal Reserve, in conjunction with the Alternative Reference Rates Committee, a steering committee comprised of large U.S. financial institutions, is considering replacing U.S. dollar LIBOR with a new index calculated by short-term repurchase agreements, backed by Treasury securities (or SOFR). SOFR is observed and backward-looking, which stands in contrast with LIBOR under the current methodology, which is an estimated forward-looking rate and relies, to some degree, on the expert judgment of submitting panel members. Whether or not SOFR attains market acceptance as a LIBOR replacement tool remains in question and there can be no assurance that the transition to a new benchmark rate or other financial metric will be an adequate alternative to LIBOR or produce the economic equivalent of LIBOR. As a result, it is not possible at this time to know the ultimate impact that a phase-out of LIBOR may have.

While we plan to transition the majority of our LIBOR-linked contracts to risk-free rates through amendments to fallback clauses in our floating-rate credit facilities and debt instruments, if LIBOR ceases to exist or if the methods of calculating LIBOR change from their current form, there may be adverse impacts on the financial markets generally and interest rates on our variable-rate borrowings may be materially adversely affected.
