The following table presents the Partnership's Adjusted EBITDA by segment (1):

(1)These operating segments are regularly reviewed by the Partnership's chief operating decision maker (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 defined in this release under the heading “Non-IFRS Measures." Adjusted EBITDA is also used by external users of the Partnership's consolidated financial statements, such as investors and the Partnership’s controlling unitholder.

First Quarter 2022 Compared with First Quarter 2021

The Partnership's FPSO segment generated Adjusted EBITDA of $100 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $53 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase of $47 million was primarily due to oil price tariff revenue related to Petrojarl Knarr FPSO and Petrojarl I FPSO units.

The Partnership's Shuttle Tanker segment generated Adjusted EBITDA of $64 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $67 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease of $3 million was primarily due to the absence in the first quarter of 2022 of compensation received from the client on the redelivery of the Navion Gothenburg shuttle tanker and the termination of the Foinaven contract of affreightment.

The Partnership's FSO segment generated Adjusted EBITDA of $11 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase of $4 million was primarily due to the absence in the first quarter of 2022 of decommissioning costs on the Dampier Spirit FSO.

The Partnership's UMS segment generated an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, which was in line with the same quarter of the prior year.

The Partnership's Towage segment generated Adjusted EBITDA of $9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase of $11 million was primarily due to higher day rates and utilization.

Non-IFRS Measures

To supplement the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, the Partnership uses Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-IFRS financial measure, as a measure of the Partnership's performance. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) before interest expense, interest income, income tax (expense) benefit, 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 the Partnership in assessing its 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.

Adjusted EBITDA is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered as the sole measure of the Partnership's 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 the Partnership's management, and the Partnership believes that this supplementary metric assists investors and other users of its financial reports in comparing its financial and operating performance across reporting periods and with other companies.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

The following table includes reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss) for the periods presented in the Partnership's Consolidated Financial Summary.

Adjusted EBITDA from equity-accounted investments, which is a non-IFRS financial measure and should not be considered as an alternative to equity accounted income (loss) or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with IFRS, represents our proportionate share of Adjusted EBITDA (as defined above) from equity-accounted investments. This measure does not have a standardized meaning, and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.
