EXPLANATORY NOTE
Teekay Offshore Partners L.P. (generally referred to herein asthe Partnership,we,ourorus) is filing this Report on Form 6-K/A for the three months ended March 31, 2008 (thisAmendmentor thisFirst Quarter 2008Form 6-K/A Report) to amend our Report on Form 6-K for the three months ended March 31, 2008 (theOriginal Filing) that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (orSEC) on May 28, 2008.
(a) | Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities and Other |
In August 2008, we commenced a review of our application of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (or SFAS) No. 133,Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended. Although we believe that our derivative transactions were consistent with our risk management policies and that our overall risk management policies continue to be sound, based on our review we concluded that certain of our derivative instruments did not qualify for hedge accounting treatment under SFAS No. 133. Certain of our hedge documentation, in respect of our assessment of effectiveness and measurement of ineffectiveness of our derivative instruments for accounting purposes, was not in accordance with the technical requirements of SFAS No. 133 for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007.
Accordingly, although we believe each of these derivative instruments were and continue to be effective economic hedges, for accounting purposes we should have reflected changes in fair value of these derivative instruments as increases or decreases to our net income (loss) on our consolidated statements of income (loss), instead of being reflected as increases or decreases to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a component of partners’ equity on our consolidated balance sheets and statements of changes in partners’ equity.
The change in accounting for the derivative transactions does not affect the economics of the derivative transactions.
We have also restated certain other items primarily related to accounting for the non-controlling interest in one of our 50% owned subsidiaries and adjusting amounts relating to deferred income taxes and the fair value of certain derivative instruments at December 31, 2007.
The changes in accounting for these transactions do not affect our cash flows, liquidity, or cash distributions to partners.
(b) | Vessels Acquired from Teekay Corporation |
In connection with assessing the potential impact of SFAS No. 141(R), which replaces SFAS No. 141,Business Combinations, and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, we re-assessed our accounting treatment for interests in vessels we purchased from Teekay Corporation subsequent to our initial public offering in December 2006. We have historically treated the acquisition of the interests in these vessels as asset acquisitions, not business acquisitions. If the acquisitions were deemed to be business acquisitions, the acquisitions would have been accounted for in a manner similar to the pooling of interest method whereby our consolidated financial statements prior to the date the interests in these vessels were acquired by us would be retroactively adjusted to include the results of these acquired vessels (referred to herein as theDropdown Predecessor)from the date that we and the acquired vessels were both under the common control of Teekay Corporation and had begun operations. Although substantially all of the value relating to these transactions is attributable to the vessels and associated contracts, we have now determined that the acquisitions should have been accounted for as business acquisitions under United States generally accepted accounting principles (orGAAP).
The impact of the retroactive Dropdown Predecessor adjustments does not affect our limited partners’ interest in net income, earnings per unit, or cash distributions to partners. However, the impact of the retroactive Dropdown Predecessor adjustments has resulted in an increase in previously reported net income for the three months ended March 31, 2007.
As a result of the conclusions described above, we are restating in this First Quarter 2008 Form 6-K/A Report our historical balance sheets as of March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, our statements of income (loss) and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, and our statement of changes in partners’ equity for the three months ended March 31, 2008.
Note 13 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in this First Quarter 2008 Form 6-K/A Report reflects the changes to our consolidated financial statements as a result of our restatement and provides additional information about the restatement.
To restate results for certain prior fiscal years based on the conclusions of the assessments described above, we have also filed a 2007 Annual Report on Form 20-F/A to amend our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2007 that was filed with the SEC on April 11, 2008. The 2007 Annual Report on Form 20-F/A restates certain financial information, including: historical balance sheets as of December 31, 2007 and 2006; statements of income (loss), cash flows and changes in partners’/owner’s equity for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005; and selected financial data as of and for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006, 2005, 2004 and 2003.

For the convenience of the reader, this First Quarter 2008 Form 6-K/A Report sets forth the Original Filing in its entirety, although we are only restating portions of “Part I. Financial Information” affected by the amended financial information. The changes we have made are a result of and reflect the restatement described herein; no other information in the Original Filing has been updated.
Except for the amended or restated information described above, this First Quarter 2008 Form 6-K/A Report continues to speak as of the date of the Original Filing. Other events occurring after the filing of the Original Filing or other disclosures necessary to reflect subsequent events have been or will be addressed in other reports filed with or furnished to the SEC subsequent to the date of the Original Filing.
We do not intend to amend previously-filed Reports on Form 6-K for quarterly periods ending prior to December 31, 2007. As a result, the reader should not rely on our prior filings, but should rely upon the restated financial statements for affected periods contained in this First Quarter 2008 Form 6-K/A Report.

TEEKAY OFFSHORE PARTNERS L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(all tabular amounts stated in thousands of U.S. dollars, except unit and per unit data)
1. | Basis of Presentation |
The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (orGAAP). These financial statements include the accounts of Teekay Offshore Partners L.P., which is a limited partnership organized under the laws of The Republic of Marshall Islands, its wholly owned or controlled subsidiaries and the Dropdown Predecessor, as described below (collectively, thePartnership). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Certain information and footnote disclosures required by GAAP for complete annual financial statements have been omitted and, therefore, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Partnership’s restated audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007, which are included on Form 20-F/A filed on April 2, 2009. In the opinion of management of Teekay Offshore GP L.L.C. (or theGeneral Partner), these interim unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly, in all material respects, the Partnership’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, changes in partners’ equity and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of those for a full fiscal year. Significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
As required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (or SFAS) No. 141, the Partnership accounts for the acquisition of interests in vessels from Teekay Corporation as a transfer of a business between entities under common control. The method of accounting prescribed by SFAS No. 141 for such transfers is similar to pooling of interests method of accounting. Under this method, the carrying amount of net assets recognized in the balance sheets of each combining entity are carried forward to the balance sheet of the combined entity, and no other assets or liabilities are recognized as a result of the combination. The excess of the proceeds paid, if any, by the Partnership over Teekay Corporation’s historical cost is accounted for as an equity distribution to Teekay Corporation. In addition, transfers of net assets between entities under common control are accounted for as if the transfer occurred from the date that the Partnership and the acquired vessels were both under the common control of Teekay Corporation and had begun operations. As a result, the Partnership’s financial statements prior to the date the interests in these vessels were actually acquired are retroactively adjusted to include the results of these vessels operated during the periods under common control of Teekay Corporation.
In October 2007, the Partnership acquired from Teekay Corporation its interest in the FSO unitDampier Spirit, along with its 7-year fixed-rate time-charter. This transaction was deemed to be a business acquisition between entities under common control. As a result, the Partnership’s statements of income and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2007 reflect this vessel and its related operations, referred to herein as theDropdown Predecessor, as if the Partnership had acquired it when the vessel began operations under the ownership of Teekay Corporation on March 15, 1998.
The consolidated financial statements reflect the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Dropdown Predecessor. In the preparation of these consolidated financial statements, general and administrative expenses and interest expense were not identifiable as relating solely to each specific vessel. General and administrative expenses (consisting primarily of salaries and other employee related costs, office rent, legal and professional fees, and travel and entertainment) were allocated based on the Dropdown Predecessor’s proportionate share of Teekay Corporation’s total ship-operating (calendar) days for the period presented. In addition, if the Dropdown Predecessor was capitalized in part with non-interest bearing loans from Teekay Corporation and its subsidiaries, these intercompany loans were generally used to finance the acquisition of the vessels. Interest expense includes the allocation of interest to the Dropdown Predecessor from Teekay Corporation and its subsidiaries based upon the weighted-average outstanding balance of these intercompany loans and the weighted-average interest rate outstanding on Teekay Corporation’s loan facilities that were used to finance these intercompany loans. Management believes these allocations reasonably present the general and administrative expenses and interest expense of the Dropdown Predecessor.
The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have been restated. The nature of the restatements and the effect on the consolidated financial statement line items is discussed in Note 13 of the Notes to Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements. In addition, certain disclosures in the following notes have been restated to be consistent with the consolidated financial statements.
2. | Fair Value Measurements |
Effective January 1, 2008, the Partnership adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (orSFAS) No. 157,Fair Value Measurements(orSFAS No. 157). In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Staff Position No. FAS 157-2,Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157, the Partnership will defer the adoption of SFAS No. 157 for its nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those items recognized or disclosed at fair value on an annual or more frequently recurring basis, until January 1, 2009. The adoption of SFAS No. 157 did not have a material impact on the Partnership’s fair value measurements.
SFAS No. 157 clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used to measure fair value and expands disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. The fair value hierarchy has three levels based on the reliability of the inputs used to determine fair value as follows:
Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

The estimated amount is the present value of future cash flows. |
3. | Segment Reporting |
The Partnership has three reportable segments: its shuttle tanker segment; its conventional tanker segment; and its floating storage and offtake (orFSO) segment. The Partnership’s shuttle tanker segment consists of shuttle tankers operating primarily on fixed-rate contracts of affreightment, time-charter contracts or bareboat charter contracts. The Partnership’s conventional tanker segment consists of conventional tankers operating on fixed-rate, time-charter contracts. The Partnership’s FSO segment consists of its FSO units subject to fixed-rate, time-charter contracts or bareboat charter contracts. Segment results are evaluated based on income from vessel operations. The accounting policies applied to the reportable segments are the same as those used in the preparation of the Partnership’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007.
The following tables present results for these segments for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007:

Total | 1,476,680 | 1,453,407 | ||||||
As at March 31, 2008, the Partnership had three long-term revolving credit facilities (collectively, theRevolvers), which, as at such date, provided for borrowings of up to $1,369.1 million, of which $115.5 million was undrawn. The total amount available under the Revolvers reduces by $99.6 million (remainder of 2008), $108.2 million (2009), $114.9 million (2010), $122.0 million (2011), $129.7 million (2012) and $794.7 million (thereafter). Two of the Revolvers are guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of the Partnership for all outstanding amounts and contain covenants that require a subsidiary of the Partnership, Teekay Offshore Operating L.P. (orOPCO) to maintain the greater of a minimum liquidity (cash, cash equivalents and undrawn committed revolving credit lines with at least six months to maturity) of at least $75.0 million and 5.0% of OPCO’s total consolidated debt. The remaining revolving credit facility is guaranteed by Teekay Corporation and contains covenants that require Teekay Corporation to maintain the greater of a minimum liquidity of at least $50.0 million and 5.0% of Teekay Corporation’s total consolidated debt, which has recourse to Teekay Corporation. The Revolvers are collateralized by first-priority mortgages granted on 28 of the Partnership’s vessels, together with other related collateral.
As at March 31, 2008, each of the Partnership’s six 50% owned subsidiaries had an outstanding term loan, which in aggregate totaled $305.9 million. The term loans have varying maturities through 2017 and semi-annual payments that reduce over time. All term loans are collateralized by first-priority mortgages on the vessels to which the loans relate, together with other related collateral. As at March 31, 2008, the Partnership had guaranteed $100.9 million of these term loans, which represents its 50% share of the outstanding vessel mortgage debt of five of these 50% owned subsidiaries. The other owner and Teekay Corporation have guaranteed the remaining $205.0 million.

a. | Nine of OPCO’s conventional tankers were employed on long-term time-charter contracts with a subsidiary of Teekay Corporation. Under the terms of eight of these nine time-charter contracts, OPCO is responsible for the bunker fuel expenses; however, OPCO adds the approximate amounts of these expenses to the daily hire rate. Pursuant to these charter contracts, OPCO earned voyage revenues of $33.7 million and $32.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. |
b. | Two of OPCO’s shuttle tankers were employed on long-term bareboat charters with a subsidiary of Teekay Corporation. Pursuant to these charter contracts, OPCO earned voyage revenues of $3.5 million during both the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. |
c. | Two of OPCO’s FSO units were employed on long-term bareboat charters with a subsidiary of Teekay Corporation. Pursuant to these charter contracts, OPCO earned voyage revenues of $2.8 million and $2.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. |

f. | Pursuant to the Partnership’s partnership agreement, the Partnership reimburses the General Partner for all expenses incurred by the Partnership that are necessary or appropriate for the conduct of the Partnership’s business. During the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, the Partnership incurred $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, of these costs. |
g. | The Partnership has entered into an omnibus agreement with Teekay Corporation, Teekay LNG Partners L.P., the General Partner and others governing, among other things, when the Partnership, Teekay Corporation and Teekay LNG Partners L.P. may compete with each other and certain rights of first offering on liquefied natural gas carriers, oil tankers, shuttle tankers, FSO units and floating production, storage and offloading units. |
h. | In March 2008, Teekay Corporation agreed to reimburse OPCO for certain costs relating to repairs of $0.4 million on one of the Partnership’s shuttle tankers. The vessel was purchased from Teekay Corporation in July 2007 and had, as of the date of acquisition, an inherent minor defect that required repairs. |
i. | In March 2008, a subsidiary of OPCO sold certain vessel equipment to a subsidiary of Teekay Corporation, for proceeds equal to its net book value of $1.4 million. |
j. | At March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, advances to affiliates totaled $4.6 million and $0.8 million, respectively. Advances to and from affiliates are non-interest bearing and unsecured. The balances as at March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 are included in other current assets. |
9. | Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities |
The Partnership uses derivatives in accordance with its overall risk management policies. The following summarizes the Partnership’s risk strategies with respect to market risk from foreign currency fluctuations and changes in interest rates.
The Partnership hedges portions of its forecasted expenditures denominated in foreign currencies with foreign exchange forward contracts. These foreign exchange forward contracts are generally designated, for accounting purpose, as cash flow hedges of forecasted foreign currency expenditures. Where such instruments are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the changes in their fair value is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. At such time, the respective amount in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) is released to earnings and is recorded within operating expenses, based on the nature of the expense being hedged. The ineffective portion of these foreign exchange forward contracts has also been reported in operating expenses, based on the nature of the expense being economically hedged. During the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Partnership recognized unrealized losses of $0.5 million and $0.2 million in vessel operating expenses and general and administrative expenses, respectively, relating to the ineffective portion of its foreign currency forward contracts; (2007 — nil).
Changes in fair value of foreign exchange forward contracts that are not designated, for accounting purposes, as cash flow hedges are recognized in earnings and are reported in operating expenses, based on the nature of the expense being hedged. During the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Partnership recognized unrealized gains of $0.4 million and $0.5 million in general and administrative and foreign currency exchange loss, respectively, relating to foreign exchange forward contracts that are not designated as cash flow hedges; (2007 — nil).
As at March 31, 2008, the Partnership was committed to the following foreign exchange contracts for the forward purchase of foreign currency:

Euro | 4.0 | 0.68 | $ | 5.8 | — |
(1) | Foreign currency per U.S. Dollar. |
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, its interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges of its USD LIBOR denominated borrowings. Unrealized gains or losses relating to changes in fair value of the Partnership’s interest rate swaps have been reported in interest gain (expense) in the consolidated statements of income (loss). During the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Partnership recognized an unrealized loss of $45.4 million (2007 — $1.5 million), relating to the changes in fair value of its interest rate swaps.

The Partnership is exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the counter-parties to the foreign exchange forward contracts and the interest rate swap agreements. In order to minimize counterparty risk, the Partnership only enters into derivative transactions with counterparties that are rated A or better by Standard & Poor’s or Aa3 by Moody’s at the time of the transactions. In addition, to the extent possible and practical, interest rate swaps are entered into with different counterparties to reduce concentration risk

11. | Partners’ Capital and Net Income (Loss) Per Unit |
Partners’ Capital
At March 31, 2008, of our total units outstanding, 40.25% were held by the public and the remaining units were held by a subsidiary of Teekay Corporation.
Limited Partners’ Rights
Significant rights of the limited partners include the following:
• | Right to receive distribution of available cash within approximately 45 days after the end of each quarter. |
• | No limited partner shall have any management power over the Partnership’s business and affairs; the general partner shall conduct, direct and manage our activities. |
• | The General Partner may be removed if such removal is approved by unitholders holding at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding units voting as a single class, including units held by the General Partner and its affiliates. |
Subordinated Units
All of the Partnership’s subordinated units are held by a subsidiary of Teekay Corporation. Under the partnership agreement, during the subordination period applicable to the Partnership’s subordinated units, the common units will have the right to receive distributions of available cash from operating surplus in an amount equal to the minimum quarterly distribution of $0.35 per quarter, plus any arrearages in the payment of the minimum quarterly distribution on the common units from prior quarters, before any distributions of available cash from operating surplus may be made on the subordinated units. Distribution arrearages do not accrue on the subordinated units. The purpose of the subordinated units is to increase the likelihood that during the subordination period there will be available cash to be distributed on the common units.

For the purpose of the net income (loss) per unit calculation (as defined below), during the quarter ended March 31, 2008, the Partnership incurred a net loss and, consequently, the assumed distributions of net loss resulted in equal distributions of net loss between the subordinated unit holders and common unit holders. During the quarter ended March 31, 2007, net income did not exceed the minimum quarterly distribution of $0.35 per unit and, consequently, the assumed distribution of net income resulted in an unequal distribution of net income between the subordinated unit holders and common unit holders.
Incentive Distribution Rights
The General Partner is entitled to incentive distributions if the amount the Partnership distributes to unitholders with respect to any quarter exceeds specified target levels shown below:
Quarterly Distribution Target Amount (per unit) | Unitholders | General Partner | ||||||
Minimum quarterly distribution of $0.35 | 98 | % | 2 | % | ||||
Up to $0.4025 | 98 | % | 2 | % | ||||
Above $0.4025 up to $0.4375 | 85 | % | 15 | % | ||||
Above $0.4375 up to $0.525 | 75 | % | 25 | % | ||||
Above $0.525 | 50 | % | 50 | % |
For the purpose of the net income (loss) per unit calculation, during the quarter ended March 31, 2008, the Partnership incurred a net loss and during the quarter ended March 31, 2007, net income did not exceed $0.4025 per unit. Consequently, the assumed distribution of any net income for such respective periods did not result in the use of the increasing percentages to calculate the General Partner’s interest in net income.
Net Income (Loss) Per Unit
Net income (loss) per unit is determined by dividing net income (loss), after deducting the amount of net income attributable to the Dropdown Predecessor and the amount of net income (loss) allocated to the General Partner’s interest, by the weighted-average number of units outstanding during the applicable period.
As required by Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 03-6,Participating Securities and Two-Class Method under FASB Statement No. 128, Earnings Per Share, the General Partner’s, common unit holders’ and subordinated unitholder’s interests in net income are calculated as if all net income was distributed according to the terms of the Partnership’s partnership agreement, regardless of whether those earnings would or could be distributed. The partnership agreement does not provide for the distribution of net income; rather, it provides for the distribution of available cash, which is a contractually defined term that generally means all cash on hand at the end of each quarter after establishment of cash reserves. Unlike available cash, net income is affected by non-cash items such as depreciation and amortization, unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments and foreign currency translation gains (losses).
Pursuant to the partnership agreement, income allocations are made on a quarterly basis.
12. | Commitments and Contingencies |
The Partnership may, from time to time, be involved in legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. The Partnership believes that any adverse outcome, individually or in the aggregate, would not have a material affect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows, when taking into account its insurance coverage and indemnifications from charterers or Teekay Corporation.
13. | Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements |
(a) Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities and Other
In August 2008, the Partnership commenced a review of its application of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (orSFAS) No. 133,Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended. Based on its review the Partnership concluded that certain of its interest rate swap agreements and foreign currency forward contracts did not qualify for hedge accounting treatment under SFAS No. 133 for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007. The Partnership’s findings were as follows:
• | One of the requirements of SFAS No. 133 is that hedge accounting is appropriate only for those hedging relationships that a company expects will be highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows attributable to the risk being hedged. To determine whether transactions satisfy this requirement, entities must periodically assess the effectiveness of hedging relationships both prospectively and retrospectively. Based on the Partnership’s review, the Partnership concluded that the prospective hedge effectiveness assessment that was conducted for certain of the Partnership interest rate swap agreements on the date of designation was not sufficient to conclude that the interest rate swaps would be highly effective, in accordance with the technical requirements of SFAS No. 133, in achieving offsetting changes in cash flows attributable to the risk being hedged. |
• | To conclude that hedge accounting is appropriate, another requirement of SFAS No. 133 is that the applicable hedge documentation specifies the method that will be used to assess, retrospectively and prospectively, the hedging instrument’s effectiveness, and the method that will be used to measure hedge ineffectiveness. Documentation for certain of the Partnership’s interest rate swap agreements did not clearly specify the method to be used to measure hedge ineffectiveness. |
• | Certain of the Partnership’s derivative instruments were designated as hedges when the derivative instruments had a non-zero fair value. However, this designation was not appropriate as the Partnership used certain methods of measuring ineffectiveness that are not allowed in the case of non-zero fair value derivatives. |

For accounting purposes the Partnership should have reflected changes in fair value of these derivative instruments as increases or decreases to the Partnership’s net income (loss) on its consolidated statements of income (loss), instead of being reflected as increases or decreases to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a component of partners’ equity on the consolidated balance sheets and statements of changes in partners’ equity.
The Partnership has also restated certain other items primarily related to accounting for the non-controlling interest in one of its 50% owned subsidiaries and adjusting amounts relating to deferred income taxes and the fair value of certain derivative instruments at December 31, 2007.
The change in accounting for these transactions does not affect the Partnership’s cash flows, liquidity or cash distributions to partners.
(b) Vessels Acquired from Teekay Corporation
In connection with the Partnership assessing the potential impact of SFAS No. 141(R), which replaces SFAS No. 141,Business Combinations, and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, the Partnership re-assessed its accounting treatment of interests in vessels it purchased from Teekay Corporation subsequent to the Partnership’s initial public offering in December 2006. The Partnership has historically treated the acquisition of interests in these vessels as asset acquisitions, not business acquisitions. If the acquisitions were deemed to be business acquisitions, the acquisitions would have been accounted for in a manner similar to the pooling of interest method whereby the Partnership’s consolidated financial statements prior to the date the interests in these vessels were acquired by it would be retroactively adjusted to include the results of these acquired vessels (referred to herein as theDropdown Predecessor) from the date that the Partnership and the acquired vessels were both under common control of Teekay Corporation and had begun operations. The Partnership now has determined that the acquisitions should have been accounted for as business acquisitions under United States generally accepted accounting principles.
The impact of the retroactive Dropdown Predecessor adjustments does not affect limited partners’ interest in net income, earnings per unit, or cash distributions to partners. However, the impact of the retroactive Dropdown Predecessor adjustments has resulted in an increase in previously reported net income for the three months ended March 31, 2007.
In October 2007, the Partnership acquired from Teekay Corporation its interest in the FSO unitDampier Spirit, along with its 7-year fixed-rate time-charter. This transaction was deemed to be a business acquisition between entities under common control. As a result, the Partnership’s statements of income and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2007 reflect this vessel as if the Partnership had acquired it when the vessel began operations under the ownership of Teekay Corporation on March 15, 1998.
As a result of the conclusions described above in this Note 13, the Partnership is restating herein its historical balance sheets as of March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, its statements of income (loss) and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 and its statement of changes partners’ equity for the three months ended March 31, 2008.
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of the Partnership’s previously reported and its restated net (loss) income and Partners’ equity as of the date and for the periods shown (in thousands of U.S. dollars):

OVERVIEW
We are an international provider of marine transportation and storage services to the offshore oil industry. We were formed in August 2006 by Teekay Corporation, a leading provider of marine services to the global oil and natural gas industries, to further develop its operations in the offshore market. Our principal asset is a 26% interest in Teekay Offshore Operating L.P. (orOPCO), which operates a substantial majority of our shuttle tankers, conventional crude oil tankers and FSO units. Our growth strategy focuses on expanding our fleet of shuttle tankers and FSO units under long-term, fixed-rate time charters. We intend to continue our practice of acquiring shuttle tankers and FSO units as needed for approved projects only after the long-term charters for the projects have been awarded to us, rather than ordering vessels on a speculative basis. We intend to follow this same practice in acquiring FPSO units, which produce and process oil offshore in addition to providing storage and offloading capabilities. We seek to capitalize on opportunities emerging from the global expansion of the offshore transportation, storage and production sectors by selectively targeting long-term, fixed-rate time charters. We may enter into joint ventures and partnerships with companies that may provide increased access to these opportunities or may engage in vessel or business acquisitions. We plan to leverage the expertise, relationships and reputation of Teekay Corporation and its affiliates to pursue these growth opportunities in the offshore sectors and may consider other opportunities to which our competitive strengths are well suited. We view our conventional tanker fleet primarily as a source of stable cash flow as we seek to expand our offshore operations.
SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENTS
Acquisition of Vessels in 2008
In June 2007, we exercised our option to purchase a 2001-built shuttle tanker for $41.7 million, which was included in our in-chartered shuttle tanker fleet. The vessel was delivered to us in March 2008.
Potential Additional Shuttle Tanker, FSO and FPSO Projects
Pursuant to an omnibus agreement we entered into in connection with our initial public offering, Teekay Corporation is obligated to offer us certain shuttle tankers, FSO units, and FPSO units it may acquire in the future, provided the vessels are servicing contracts in excess of three years in length.
Teekay Corporation has ordered four Aframax shuttle tanker newbuildings, which are scheduled to deliver in 2010 and 2011, for a total delivered cost of approximately $467.4 million. It is anticipated that these vessels will be offered to us and will be used to service either new long-term, fixed-rate contracts Teekay Corporation may be awarded prior to delivery or OPCO’s contracts-of-affreightment in the North Sea.
The omnibus agreement also obligates Teekay Corporation to offer to us (a) its interest in certain future FPSO and FSO projects it may undertake through its 50%-owned joint venture with Teekay Petrojarl ASA and (b) if Teekay Corporation obtains 100% ownership of Teekay Petrojarl ASA, the existing FPSO units owned by Teekay Petrojarl ASA that are servicing contracts in excess of three years in length. As at March 31, 2008, Teekay Corporation had a 65% ownership interest in Teekay Petrojarl ASA.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
We use a variety of financial and operational terms and concepts when analyzing our results of operations, which can be found in Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects in our Annual Report on Form 20-F/A for the year ended December 31, 2007. In accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (orGAAP), we report gross revenues in our income statements and include voyage expenses among our operating expenses. However, shipowners base economic decisions regarding the deployment of their vessels upon anticipated time charter equivalent (orTCE) rates, and industry analysts typically measure bulk shipping freight rates in terms of TCE rates. This is because under time charters and bareboat charters the customer usually pays the voyage expenses, while under voyage charters and contracts of affreightment the shipowner usually pays the voyage expenses, which typically are added to the hire rate at an approximate cost. Accordingly, the discussion of revenue below focuses on net voyage revenues (i.e. voyage revenues less voyage expenses) and TCE rates of our three reportable segments where applicable. TCE rates represent net voyage revenues divided by revenue days. Please read Item 1 — Financial Statements: Note 3 — Segment Reporting.
Items You Should Consider When Evaluating Our Results of Operations
You should consider the following factors when evaluating our historical financial performance and assessing our future prospects:
• | Our financial results reflect the results of the interests in vessels acquired from Teekay Corporation for all periods the vessels were under common control.In October 2007, we acquired from Teekay Corporation its interest in the FSO unitDampier Spirit, along with its 7-year fixed-rate time-charter. This transaction was deemed to be a business acquisition between entities under common control. Accordingly, we have accounted for this transaction in a manner similar to the pooling of interest method. Under this method of accounting, our financial statements prior to the date the interest in this vessel was actually acquired by us are retroactively adjusted to include the results of this acquired vessel. The periods retroactively adjusted include all periods that we and the acquired vessel were both under common control of Teekay Corporation and had begun operations. As a result, our statement of income for the three months ended March 31, 2007 reflect the vessel, referred to herein as theDropdown Predecessor, as if we had acquired it when the vessel began operations under the ownership of Teekay Corporation on March 15, 1998. |
• | The size of our fleet continues to change.Our results of operations reflect changes in the size and composition of our fleet due to certain vessel deliveries and vessel dispositions. For instance, the average number of owned vessels in our shuttle tanker fleet increased from 24 in 2007 to 26 in 2008, and our FSO segment increased from 4 in 2007 to 5 in 2008. Please read “— Results of Operations” below for further details about vessel dispositions and deliveries. Due to the nature of our business, we expect our fleet to continue to fluctuate in size and composition. |
• | Our vessel operating costs are facing industry-wide cost pressures. The shipping industry is experiencing a global manpower shortage due to significant growth in the world fleet. This shortage has resulted in crew wage increases during 2007, the effect of which is included the “Results of Operations”. We expect a trend of increasing crew compensation to continue throughout 2008. |
• | Our financial results of operations are affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates. Under U.S. GAAP, all foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities, such as cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, advances from affiliates and deferred income taxes are revalued and reported based on the prevailing exchange rate at the end of the period. OPCO has entered into services agreements with subsidiaries of Teekay Corporation whereby the subsidiaries operate and crew the vessels. Under these service agreements, OPCO pays all vessel operating expenses in U.S. Dollars, and will not be subject to currency exchange fluctuations until 2009. Beginning in 2009, payments under the service agreements will adjust to reflect any change in Teekay Corporation’s cost of providing services based on fluctuations in the value of the Norwegian Kroner relative to the U.S. Dollar, which may result in increased payments under the services agreements if the strength of the U.S. Dollar declines relative to the Norwegian Kroner. At March 31, 2008, we were committed to foreign exchange contracts for the forward purchase of approximately Norwegian Kroner 255.7 million for U.S. Dollars at an average rate of Norwegian Kroner 5.64 per U.S. Dollar, maturing in 2009. |
• | Our operations are seasonal.Historically, the utilization of shuttle tankers in the North Sea is higher in the winter months, as favorable weather conditions in the summer months provide opportunities for repairs and maintenance to our vessels and to the offshore oil platforms. Downtime for repairs and maintenance generally reduces oil production and, thus, transportation requirements. |
We manage our business and analyze and report our results of operations on the basis of three business segments: the shuttle tanker segment, the conventional tanker segment and the FSO segment.
Shuttle Tanker Segment
Our shuttle tanker fleet consists of 38 vessels that operate under fixed-rate contracts of affreightment, time charters and bareboat charters. Of the 38 shuttle tankers, 25 are owned by OPCO (including 5 through 50% owned subsidiaries), 11 are chartered-in by OPCO and 2 are owned by us (including one through a 50% owned subsidiary). All of these shuttle tankers provide transportation services to energy companies, primarily in the North Sea and Brazil.

The average size of OPCO’s owned shuttle tanker fleet increased for the three months ended March 31, 2008 compared to the same period last year, primarily due to the acquisition of the 2000-built shuttle tanker (theNavion Bergen) and a 50% interest in the 2006-built shuttle-tanker (theNavion Gothenburg) in July 2007 (collectively, the2007 Shuttle Tanker Acquisitions).
The average size of OPCO’s chartered-in shuttle tanker fleet decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2008 compared to the same period last year, primarily due to the redelivery of two chartered-in vessels back to their owners in December 2007 and February 2008, respectively.
Net Voyage Revenues.Net voyage revenues decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2008, from the same period last year. This decrease was primarily due to:
• | a decrease of $4.9 million due to an increased number of offhire days resulting from an increase in scheduled drydockings and unexpected repairs performed during the three months ended March 31, 2008, compared to the same period last year; |
• | a decrease of $4.3 million due to a shuttle tanker servicing as a temporary floating storage unit during the three months ended March 31, 2007, at per day rates that were higher than the rates earned while employed as a shuttle tanker; |
• | a decrease of $3.4 million due to fewer revenue days from shuttle tankers servicing contracts of affreightment in the conventional spot market compared to the same period last year; and |
• | a decrease of $2.2 million due to customer performance claims under the terms of charter party agreements; |
partially offset by
• | an increase of $5.7 million due to the 2007 Shuttle Tanker Acquisitions; |
• | an increase of $1.3 million due to the redeployment of one shuttle tanker from servicing contracts of affreightment to a time-charter effective October 2007, and earning a higher average daily charter rate than the same period last year; and |
• | an increase of $1.2 million in revenues due to more revenue days for shuttle tankers servicing contracts of affreightment compared to the same period last year. |
Vessel Operating Expenses.Vessel operating expenses increased for the three months ended March 31, 2008, from the same period last year, primarily due to:
• | an increase of $2.5 million in salaries for crew and officers primarily due to general wage escalations and a change in the crew rotation system; |
• | an increase of $1.7 million due to an increase in prices for consumables, freight and lubricants; and |
• | an increase of $1.4 million relating to repairs and maintenance performed for certain vessels during the three months ended March 31, 2008. |

Time-Charter Hire Expense.Time-charter hire expense decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2008, from the same period last year, primarily due to the redelivery of two chartered-in vessels back to their owners in December 2007 and February 2008, respectively.
Depreciation and Amortization.Depreciation and amortization expense increased for the three months ended March 31, 2008, from the same period last year, primarily due to the 2007 Shuttle Tanker Acquisitions.
Conventional Tanker Segment
OPCO owns nine Aframax-class conventional crude oil tankers, all of which operate under fixed-rate time charters with Teekay Corporation.
The following table presents our conventional tanker segment’s operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, and compares its net voyage revenues (which is a non-GAAP financial measure) for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 to voyage revenues, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, for the same periods.

During 2007, OPCO operated ten conventional crude oil tankers. TheNavion Sagawas included as a conventional crude oil tanker within the conventional tanker segment until its conversion to an FSO unit was completed and it commenced a three-year FSO time charter contract in early May 2007.
Income from vessel operations for the conventional tanker segment decreased during the three months ended March 31, 2008, from the same period last year, primarily due to:
• | a decrease of $5.9 million in net bunker revenues. Under the terms of eight of the nine time-charter contracts, OPCO is reponsible for the bunker fuel expenses and the approximate amounts of these expenses are added to the daily hire rate. During the annual review of the daily hire rate in the third quarter of 2007, the rate per day was adjusted downwards based on the average daily bunker consumption for the preceding year; and |
• | a decrease of $2.3 million due to the transfer of theNavion Sagato the FSO segment in early May 2007. |

FSO Segment
Our FSO fleet consists of five vessels that operate under fixed-rate time charters or fixed-rate bareboat charters. Of the five FSO units, four are owned by OPCO and one is owned by us. FSO units provide an on-site storage solution to oil field installations that have no oil storage facilities or that require supplemental storage.
The following table presents our FSO segment’s operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, and compares its net voyage revenues (which is a non-GAAP financial measure) for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 to voyage revenues, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, for the same periods. The following table also provides a summary of the changes in calendar-ship-days by owned vessels for our FSO segment:

During 2007, as a result of the inclusion of the Dropdown Predecessor, we were deemed to have operated four FSO units, including theDampier Spirit, which we acquired from Teekay Corporation in October 2007. TheDampier Spirithas been included in our results as if it was acquired on January 1, 2007. Please read “—Items You Should Consider When Evaluating Our Results of Operations— Our financial results reflect the results of the interests in vessels acquired from Teekay Corporation for all periods the vessels were under common control” above.
A fifth FSO unit, theNavion Saga, was included as a conventional crude oil tanker within the conventional tanker segment until May 2007, as discussed above. As a result of the inclusion of theNavion Saga, income from vessel operations for the FSO segment for the three months ended March 31, 2008 increased from the same period in 2007.
Other Operating Results
Interest Expense.Interest expense increased to $66.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, from $20.0 million for the same period last year, primarily due to:
• | an increase of $43.9 million relating to the change in fair value of our interest rate swaps; |
• | an increase of $2.3 million due to the assumption of debt relating to the2007 Shuttle Tanker Acquisitions; and |
• | an increase of $1.4 million relating to additional debt drawn under OPCO’s long-term revolving credit facilities, which was used to partially finance the acquisition of the2007 Shuttle Tanker Acquisitions, theDampier Spirit, and an in-chartered shuttle tanker, theNavion Oslo. |
We have not designated our interest rate swaps as hedges for accounting purposes and as such, the unrealized changes in the fair values of the swaps are reflected in interest expense in our consolidated statements of income (loss).
Foreign Currency Exchange Losses.Foreign currency exchange loss was $2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, compared to $4.0 million for the same period last year. Our foreign currency exchange losses and gains, substantially all of which are unrealized, are due primarily to the relevant period-end revaluation of Norwegian Kroner-denominated monetary assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes. Gains reflect a stronger U.S. Dollar against the Kroner on the date of revaluation or settlement compared to the rate in effect at the beginning of the period. Losses reflect a weaker U.S. Dollar against the Norwegian Kroner 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 was $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, compared to an income tax recovery of $4.6 million for the same period last year. The $4.8 million increase to income tax expense was primarily due to an increase in deferred income tax expense relating to unrealized foreign exchange translation gains for the three months ended March 31, 2008.
Other Income.Other income for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 was $2.6 million and $2.7 million, respectively, which was primarily comprised of leasing income from our volatile organic compound emissions equipment.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity and Cash Needs
As at March 31, 2008, our total cash and cash equivalents were $137.8 million, compared to $121.2 million at December 31, 2007. Our total liquidity, including cash, cash equivalents and undrawn long-term borrowings, was $253.3 million as at March 31, 2008, compared to $286.7 million as at December 31, 2007. The decrease in liquidity was primarily the result of our payment for the purchase of theNavion Oslo, the payment of cash distributions by us and OPCO and expenditures for drydocking, vessels and equipment, partially offset by cash generated by our operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2008.
In addition to distributions on our equity interests, our primary short-term liquidity needs are to fund general working capital requirements and drydocking expenditures, while our long-term liquidity needs primarily relate to expansion and investment capital expenditures and other maintenance capital expenditures and debt repayment. Expansion capital expenditures are primarily for the purchase or construction of vessels to the extent the expenditures increase the operating capacity of or revenue generated by our fleet, while maintenance capital expenditures primarily consist of drydocking expenditures and expenditures to replace vessels in order to maintain the operating capacity of or revenue generated by our fleet. Investment capital expenditures are those capital expenditures that are neither maintenance capital expenditures nor expansion capital expenditures.
We anticipate that our primary sources of funds for our short-term liquidity needs will be cash flows from operations. We believe that cash flows from operations will be sufficient to meet our existing liquidity needs for at least the next 12 months. Generally, our long-term sources of funds will be from cash from operations, long-term bank borrowings and other debt or equity financings, or a combination thereof. Because we and OPCO distribute all of our and its available cash, we expect that we and OPCO will rely upon external financing sources, including bank borrowings and the issuance of debt and equity securities, to fund acquisitions and expansion and investment capital expenditures, including opportunities we may pursue under the omnibus agreement with Teekay Corporation and other of its affiliates.
Cash Flows.The following table summarizes our sources and uses of cash for the periods presented:
Three Months Ended March 31, | ||||||||
(in thousands of U.S. dollars) | 2008 | 2007 | ||||||
(restated) | (restated) | |||||||
Net cash flow from operating activities | 22,712 | 16,553 | ||||||
Net cash flow from financing activities | 33,956 | (18,567 | ) | |||||
Net cash flow from investing activities | (40,101 | ) | 2,371 |
Operating Cash Flows.Net cash flow from operating activities increased to $22.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, from $16.6 million for the same period in 2007, primarily reflecting the inclusion of theNavion BergenandNavion Gothenburgsince April 2007 and July 2007, respectively, partially offset by a $21.2 million increase in cash distributions paid by OPCO to non-controlling interest owners, a $0.4 million increase in drydocking expenditures, and an increase in interest expense from the increase in debt due to our acquisition of theNavion Bergenand theDampier Spirit, and our 50% interest in theNavion Gothenburg. Net cash flow from operating activities depends upon the timing and amount of drydocking expenditures, repairs and maintenance activity, vessel additions and dispositions, foreign currency rates, changes in interest rates, fluctuations in working capital balances and spot market hire rates. The number of vessel drydockings tends to be uneven between years.
Financing Cash Flows.Scheduled debt repayments were $8.0 million and $2.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Net proceeds from long-term debt of $67.0 million were used to make debt prepayments of $17.0 million and to finance the acquisition of theNavion Osloin March 2008.
Cash distributions paid during the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 totaled $8.0 million and $1.0 million, respectively. Subsequent to March 31, 2008, cash distributions for the three months ended March 31, 2008 were declared and paid during the second quarter of 2008 and totaled $8.0 million.
Investing Cash Flows.During the three months ended March 31, 2008, we incurred $46.0 million of expenditures for vessels and equipment, primarily relating to the acquisition of theNavion Oslo. During the three months ended March 31, 2007, we incurred $2.5 million of expenditures for vessels and equipment. During the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, we received $5.9 million and $5.1 million, respectively, in scheduled repayments received from the leasing of our volatile organic compound emissions equipment.
Credit Facilities
As at March 31, 2008, our total debt was $1,559.4 million, compared to $1,517.5 million as at December 31, 2007. As at March 31, 2008, we had three revolving credit facilities available, which, as at such date, provided for borrowings of up to $1,369.1 million, of which $115.5 million was undrawn. As at March 31, 2008, each of our six 50% owned subsidiaries had an outstanding term loan, which, in aggregate, totaled $305.9 million. The term loans for these 50% owned subsidiaries reduce in semi-annual payments with varying maturities through 2017. Please read Item 1 — Financial Statements: Note 5 — Long-Term Debt.

Table of Contents
Our three revolving credit facilities have the following terms:
• | $455 Million Revolving Credit Facility. This 8-year reducing revolving credit facility allows for borrowing of up to $455 million (subject to scheduled reductions through 2014) and may be used for acquisitions and for general partnership purposes. As at March 31, 2008, we had $422.6 million available for borrowing, of which $73.6 million was undrawn. Obligations under this credit facility are collateralized by first-priority mortgages on eight of OPCO’s vessels. Borrowings under the facility may be prepaid at any time in amounts of not less than $5.0 million. |
• | $940 Million Revolving Credit Facility. This 8-year reducing revolving credit facility allows for borrowing of up to $940 million (subject to scheduled reductions through 2014) and may be used for acquisitions and for general partnership purposes. As at March 31, 2008, we had $880.9 million available for borrowing, of which $41.9 million was undrawn. Obligations under this credit facility are collateralized by first-priority mortgages on 19 of OPCO’s vessels. Borrowings under the facility may be prepaid at any time in amounts of not less than $5.0 million. This credit facility allows OPCO to incur working capital borrowings and loan the proceeds to us (which we could use to make distributions, provided that such amounts are paid down annually). |
• | $70 Million Revolving Credit Facility. This 10-year reducing revolving credit facility allows for borrowing of up to $70 million (subject to scheduled reductions through 2017) and may be used for general partnership purposes. As at March 31, 2008, we had $65.6 million available for borrowing, all of which was drawn. Obligations under this credit facility are collateralized by a first-priority mortgage on one of our vessels. Borrowings under the facility may be prepaid at any time in amounts of not less than $5.0 million. |
Two of the revolving credit facilities contain covenants that require OPCO to maintain the greater of a minimum liquidity (cash, cash equivalents and undrawn committed revolving credit lines with at least six months of maturity) of at least $75.0 million and 5.0% of OPCO’s total consolidated debt. The remaining revolving credit facility is guaranteed by Teekay Corporation and contains covenants that require Teekay Corporation to maintain the greater of a minimum liquidity of at least $50.0 million and 5.0% of Teekay Corporation’s total debt which has recourse to Teekay Corporation. As at March 31, 2008, we, OPCO and Teekay Corporation were in compliance with all of our covenants under these credit facilities.
The term loans of our 50% owned subsidiaries are collateralized by first-priority mortgages on the vessels to which the loans relate, together with other related collateral. As at March 31, 2008, we had guaranteed $100.9 million of these term loans, which represents our 50% share of the outstanding vessel mortgage debt in five of these 50% owned subsidiaries. The other owner and Teekay Corporation have guaranteed the remaining $205.0 million.
Interest payments on the revolving credit facilities and term loans are based on LIBOR plus a margin. At March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the margins ranged between 0.45% and 0.80%.
All of our vessel financings are collateralized by the applicable vessels. The term loans used to finance the six 50% owned subsidiaries and our three revolving credit facility agreements contain typical covenants and other restrictions, including those that restrict the relevant subsidiaries from:
�� | incurring or guaranteeing indebtedness (applicable to our term loans and the $70 million revolving credit facility only); |
• | changing ownership or structure, including by mergers, consolidations, liquidations and dissolutions; |
• | making dividends or distributions when in default of the relevant loans; |
• | making capital expenditures in excess of specified levels; |
• | making certain negative pledges or granting certain liens; |
• | selling, transferring, assigning or conveying assets; or |
• | entering into a new line of business. |
We conduct our funding and treasury activities within corporate policies designed to minimize borrowing costs and maximize investment returns while maintaining the safety of the funds and appropriate levels of liquidity for our purposes. We hold cash and cash equivalents primarily in U.S. Dollars.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
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.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP, which require us to make estimates in the application of our accounting policies based on our best assumptions, judgments and opinions. On a regular basis, management reviews the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to ensure that our consolidated financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with GAAP. 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. Accounting estimates and assumptions that we consider to be the most critical to an understanding of our financial statements because they inherently involve significant judgments and uncertainties, can be found in Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects, in our Annual Report on Form 20-F/A for the year ended December 31, 2007.

ITEM 3 — QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rate Risk
We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes primarily through our borrowings that require us to make interest payments based on LIBOR. Significant increases in interest rates could adversely affect operating margins, results of operations and our ability to service debt. We use interest rate swaps to reduce 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 floating-rate debt.
In order to minimize counterparty risk, we only enter into derivative transactions with counterparties that are rated A or better by Standard & Poor’s or Aa3 by Moody’s at the time of the transactions. In addition, to the extent possible and practical, interest rate swaps are entered into with different counterparties to reduce concentration risk.
The tables below provide information about financial instruments as at March 31, 2008 that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. For long-term debt, the table presents principal payments and related weighted-average interest rates by expected maturity dates. For interest rate swaps, the table presents notional amounts and weighted-average interest rates by expected contractual maturity dates.

Foreign Currency Risk
Our primary economic environment is the international shipping market. This market utilizes the U.S. Dollar as its functional currency. Consequently, virtually all of our revenues and most of our operating costs are in U.S. Dollars. We incur certain vessel operating expenses and general and administrative expenses in foreign currencies, the most significant of which is the Norwegian Kroner and, to a lesser extent, Australian Dollars, Euros and Singapore Dollars. There is a risk that currency fluctuations will have a negative effect on the value of cash flows.
On the closing of our initial public offering in December 2006, OPCO entered into new services agreements with subsidiaries of Teekay Corporation whereby the subsidiaries operate and crew OPCO’s vessels. Under these service agreements, OPCO pays all vessel operating expenses in U.S. Dollars and will not be subject to Norwegian Kroner exchange fluctuations until 2009. Beginning in 2009, payments under the service agreements will adjust to reflect any change in Teekay Corporation’s cost of providing services based on fluctuations in the value of the Norwegian Kroner relative to the U.S. Dollar. We have begun to hedge this currency fluctuation risk. At March 31, 2008, we were committed to foreign exchange contracts for the forward purchase of approximately Norwegian Kroner 255.7 million, Australian Dollars 3.1 million, and Euros 4.0 million for U.S. Dollars at an average rate of Norwegian Kroner 5.64 per U.S. Dollar, Australian Dollar 1.24 per U.S. Dollar, and Euro 0.68 per U.S. Dollar. The foreign exchange forward contracts mature as follows: $8.3 million in 2008; and $45.4 million in 2009.
Although the majority of transactions, assets and liabilities are denominated in U.S. Dollars, OPCO had Norwegian Kroner-denominated deferred income taxes of approximately 399.8 million ($78.4 million) at March 31, 2008. Neither we nor OPCO has entered into any forward contracts to protect against currency fluctuations on any future taxes.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1 — Legal Proceedings
On November 13, 2006, a Teekay Offshore Operating L.P. (orOPCO) shuttle tanker, theNavion Hispania, collided with theNjord Bravo, a floating storage and offtake unit, while preparing to load an oil cargo from theNjord Bravo. TheNjord Bravoservices the Njord field, which is operated by StatoilHydro Petroleum AS (orStatoilHydro) and is located off the Norwegian coast. At the time of the incident, StatoilHydro was chartering theNavion Hispaniafrom OPCO. TheNavion Hispaniaand theNjord Bravoboth incurred damages as a result of the collision.
In November 2007, Navion Offshore Loading AS, a subsidiary of OPCO, and two subsidiaries of Teekay Corporation were named as co-defendants in a legal action filed by Norwegian Hull Club (the hull and machinery insurers of theNjord Bravo), StatoilHydro and various licensees in the Njord field. The claim seeks damages for vessel repairs, expenses for a replacement vessel and other amounts related to production stoppage on the field, totaling NOK256,000,000 (or approximately USD$37 million). As anticipated, the Stavanger Conciliation Council has referred the matter to the Stavanger District Court. The claimants must continue the proceedings by September 1, 2009 in order to avoid the matter being time-barred.
The Partnership believes the likelihood of any losses relating to the claim is remote. OPCO believes that the charter contract relating to theNavion Hispaniarequires that StatoilHydro be responsible and indemnify Navion Offshore Loading AS for all losses relating to the damage to theNjord Bravo. OPCO and Teekay Corporation also maintain insurance for damages to theNavion Hispaniaand insurance for collision-related costs and claims. The Partnership believes that these insurance policies will cover the costs related to this incident, including any costs not indemnified by StatoilHydro, subject to standard deductibles. In addition, Teekay Corporation has agreed to indemnify the Partnership, OPCO and OPCO’s subsidiaries for any losses they may incur in connection with this incident.
