Bruno Chabas, CEO of SBM Offshore,
commented: “SBM
Offshore delivered strong performance through the third quarter. We
increased our EBITDA guidance for the full year based on better
than expected results in Turnkey and solid performance in Lease and
Operate. All projects continue to progress according to plan. The
Lease and Operate performance year-to-date has been in line with
our historical average of 99% uptime.
The Company was awarded contracts for the Payara
development offshore Guyana, starting with front-end engineering.
The award was the first under the long-term FPSO supply agreement
with ExxonMobil and also secures the third Fast4Ward® hull under
construction. The next phase of the project, to deliver FPSO
Prosperity, remains subject to government approvals, project
sanction and authorization.
We are working on a number of initiatives to
ensure that the Company will deliver value for the longer term on a
sustainable basis. These range from decarbonizing our production
facilities to developing new products for the gas and renewables
markets. The Company is investing in a prototype of its S3 Wave
Energy Converter (WEC). We plan to deploy it offshore Monaco in
2021. Although still in Research and Development phase, we believe
that this technology has the potential to be a disruptive
innovation in the renewables market.
SBM Offshore remains disciplined and continues
to be selective with respect to its market opportunities. The
Company focuses on furthering its lead through its Fast4Ward®
program and reliable delivery of projects to clients. SBM Offshore
is actively considering next steps with respect to its purchase
program of Fast4Ward® new build multi-purpose hulls.”

The Company generated total Directional revenues
of US$1,470 million over the first three quarters of 2019, which
represents an increase of 18% compared with the same period last
year, entirely driven Turnkey. Lease and Operate revenues were
stable at US$972 million. Year-to-date Turnkey revenues almost
doubled compared with the same period last year to a total of
US$498 million.
Undrawn facilities at the end of the quarter
totaled US$1.1 billion and are available for investment in major
projects. Compared with year-end 2018, net debt increased from
US$2.4 billion to US$3.1 billion, as a result of the investment in
the three new FPSO projects currently under construction. At the
end of the third quarter, debt drawn under the US$1 billion
revolving credit facility amounted to c. US$40 million. US$560
million was drawn under the US$720 million project loan for FPSO
Liza Destiny. The FPSO Liza Destiny project loan will become
non-recourse debt after the FPSO has reached the production
readiness milestone and the pre-completion guarantee has been
released.
Funding Update
A US$1.14 billion project loan was closed in
October for the FPSO Liza Unity. The funding process for FPSO
Sepetiba (formerly known as Mero 2) is underway and on track.
Discussions with equity partners for the sale of 35% of the project
are progressing. The related shareholder agreement is expected to
be signed in 2019.
The Company continues to be well served by its
efficient funding model during the current significant growth
phase. This model allows the Company to continue to prioritize
shareholder returns together with growth.
