"Looking ahead to 2013, we remain focused on effective project execution, with multiple projects scheduled for completion between 2013 and 2016. Last week, the Cidade de Itajai FPSO unit achieved first oil on its Brazilian offshore field and commenced operations under its nine-year time-charter contract with Petrobras. Field installation for the Voyageur Spirit FPSO continues to progress, with the unit expected to achieve first oil in March 2013. Construction of the Petrojarl Knarr FPSO is on track for delivery in the first half of 2014 and this past December the charterer, BG Group, exercised its option to extend the firm period of the Petrojarl Knarr time-charter to 10 years."
"We are also making progress on the repair and upgrade work on the Petrojarl Banff FPSO, which is expected to return to production during Q4 of 2013. Construction is proceeding on schedule on all four of Teekay Offshore's shuttle tanker newbuildings, which will operate under 10-year time-charters with BG in Brazil upon their respective deliveries in April through November this year. Finally, Teekay LNG Partners recently completed the acquisition of a 50 percent interest in a new LPG joint venture with Exmar and ordered two fuel-saving newbuilding LNG carriers, which are scheduled for delivery in the first half of 2016."
