- International Fleet TCE earnings of $32,545 per day, a 38.2% increase over the same quarter last year
- Completed acquisition of the remaining 36% of Ugland Nordic Shipping ASA

Nassau, The Bahamas, July 23, 2001 - Teekay Shipping Corporation today reported net income of $96.2 million, or $2.35 per share on a fully diluted basis, for the quarter ended June 30, 2001, compared to net income of $46.7 million, or $1.19 per share on a fully diluted basis, for the quarter ended June 30, 2000. Net voyage revenues for the quarter were $213.8 million, compared to $142.6 million recorded in the same period last year, while income from vessel operations increased to $110.3 million, from $61.1 million. The results for the current quarter over the same period last year reflect an improvement in tanker charter rates as well as an increase in the average fleet size primarily as a result of the acquisition of Ugland Nordic Shipping ASA in March 2001.
Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2001 was $240.9 million, or $5.95 per share on a fully diluted basis, compared to $66.7 million, or $1.72 per share on a fully diluted basis, for the same period last year. Net voyage revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2001 were $459.0 million, compared to $262.7 million in the same period last year, while income from vessel operations increased to $266.1 million from $98.9 million.
The following key indicators serve to highlight the changes in operating performance:

Tanker Market
Charter rates earned by the Company’s International Tanker Fleet in the second quarter were 38.2% higher than in the corresponding period last year. During the quarter, OPEC cut oil production in response to the seasonal reduction in crude oil demand which typically occurs during the second quarter. This reduced the demand for tankers and caused Aframax tanker charter rates to decline during the quarter, from the higher levels experienced during the winter.
The International Energy Agency (“IEA”) estimates that global oil demand, an indicator of tanker demand, averaged 74.5 million barrels per day (“mbpd”) during the most recent quarter, up 0.5% over the quarter ended June 30, 2000. As of July 13, 2001, the IEA’s oil demand forecast for 2001 was 76.0 mbpd, a 0.5% increase over 2000. Compared to oil demand growth of 0.9% in 2000 and 1.9% in 1999, this primarily reflects a slowdown in world economic growth.
The size of the world tanker and OBO fleet increased to 310.9 million deadweight tonnes (“mdwt”) at the end of the quarter, up 0.1% from the end of the previous quarter and up 2.5% from June 30, 2000. Deliveries of tanker newbuildings during the quarter ended June 30, 2001 totaled 4.6 mdwt, up from 4.5 mdwt in the previous quarter, while scrapping totaled 4.2 mdwt, compared to 2.3 mdwt scrapped in the previous quarter.
The world tanker and OBO orderbook increased from 55.6 mdwt at March 31, 2001 to 59.6 mdwt at June 30, 2001, or from 17.9% to 19.2% of the total world tanker and OBO fleet. The Aframax tanker orderbook increased further from 86 vessels at March 31, 2001 to 115 vessels as of June 30, 2001, or from 13.5% to 18.1% of the world Aframax fleet (including OBOs). The increase in the tanker orderbook is, in part, a response to the new International Maritime Organization (“IMO”) regulations, which were passed in April 2001. The IMO regulations will accelerate the phase-out of older tankers, affecting approximately 30% of the current world tanker fleet by the end of 2006.
Teekay Fleet
As of June 30, 2001, the Teekay fleet consisted of 95 vessels, including seven time-chartered-in Aframax tankers and 18 vessels controlled by UNS. In May 2001, UNS took delivery of a newbuilding shuttle tanker, the Stena Natalita, which is the third vessel in the UNS fleet owned jointly with the Stena Group.
The following is a summary of the Teekay fleet* as of this date:-------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------- ------------------------- Type Number Dwt - -------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------- ------------------------- International Tanker Fleet: 100%-owned Aframaxes 53 5,302,300 Time-chartered-in Aframaxes 7 728,000 Other Tankers (1) 4 689,100 OBO Fleet (2) 8 625,900 Australian Fleet 5 382,000 UNS Fleet: Shuttle Tankers (3) 15 1,508,300 Newbuilding Shuttle Tankers 3 331,500 - -------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------- ------------------------- Total: 95 9,567,100 - -------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------- ------------------------- *Excludes vessels managed for third parties. (1) Includes two 50%-owned Suezmax tankers, one 50%-owned Aframax tanker, and one VLCC. (2) Includes one 67%-owned OBO carrier and one 52%-owned OBO carrier. (3) Includes six shuttle tankers of which Teekay's ownership interest ranges from 50% to 89%.
Other Highlights
During the quarter ended June 30, 2001, Teekay completed the acquisition of 100% of Ugland Nordic Shipping ASA (“UNS”), by acquiring the remaining 36% of UNS’ outstanding shares for $79.3 million. UNS is the world’s largest shuttle tanker owner, controlling a modern fleet of 18 vessels (including three newbuildings on order), operating primarily in the North Sea under long-term fixed-rate contracts. As a result of the fixed-rate structure of UNS’ revenues, the percentage of Teekay’s net voyage revenues that are derived from fixed-rate charters increased to 20% in the quarter ended June 30, 2001, compared to 12% in the quarter ended March 31, 2001. The acquisition of UNS will provide added stability to Teekay’s cash flow throughout the tanker cycle.
In June 2001, the Company completed an offering of $250 million of its 8.875% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2011. Net proceeds from the offering were used in June and July to prepay certain outstanding secured debt, including approximately $125 million in prepayments in July 2001.
Teekay Shipping Corporation is a leading provider of international crude oil and petroleum product transportation services through the world’s largest fleet of medium-sized oil tankers. Headquartered in Nassau, Bahamas, with offices in eleven other countries, Teekay employs approximately 300 on-shore and more than 2,700 seagoing staff around the world. The Company’s modern fleet has earned a reputation for safety and excellence in providing transportation services to major oil companies, oil traders and government agencies worldwide.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This release contains forward-looking statements (as defined in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) which reflect management’s current views with respect to certain future events and performance, including statements regarding tanker charter rates, the balance of supply and demand in the crude tanker market and the added stability to the Company’s cash flow resulting from the UNS acquisition. The following factors are among those that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements, which involve risks and uncertainties, and that should be considered in evaluating any such statement: changes in production of or demand for oil and petroleum products, either generally or in particular regions; greater than anticipated levels of tanker newbuilding orders or less than anticipated rates of tanker scrapping; changes in trading patterns significantly impacting overall tanker tonnage requirements; changes in applicable industry regulations; changes in the typical seasonal variations in tanker charter rates; changes in the offshore production of oil; and our potential inability to renew or replace long-term charter contracts.
