- Highest ever annual net income of $757.4 million, or $8.63 per share (after including specific items which increased net income by $76.4 million) (1)

Nassau, The Bahamas, February 16, 2005 — Teekay Shipping Corporation today reported net income of $224.6 million, or $2.50 per share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2004, compared to net income of $6.6 million, or $0.08 per share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2003. The results for the quarters ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 included a number of specific items that had the net effect of reducing net income by $51.3 million and $72.1 million, respectively, as detailed in Appendix B to this release. Net voyage revenues(2) for the fourth quarter of 2004 were $556.2 million, compared to $340.6 million for the same period in 2003, and income from vessel operations increased to $295.8 million from $43.8 million.
The results for the current quarter primarily reflect the increase in spot tanker charter rates, which averaged $58,592 per day in the fourth quarter of 2004 for Teekay’s spot Aframax fleet, compared to $25,475 per day in the same period last year. In addition, the most recent quarter’s results reflect the continued growth of the Company’s fixed-rate segments, both through the delivery of newbuildings for service under long-term contracts and the acquisition of Naviera F. Tapias S.A. (renamed Teekay Shipping Spain S.L.) on April 30, 2004, partially offset by the sale of certain older spot vessels over the past 12 months.
Net income for the year ended December 31, 2004 was $757.4 million, or $8.63 per share, compared to $177.4 million, or $2.18 per share, for the same period last year. The results for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 included a number of specific items that had the net effect of increasing net income by $76.4 million in 2004 and reducing net income by $118.3 million in 2003, as detailed in Appendix B to this release. Net voyage revenues(2) for the year ended December 31, 2004 were $1.8 billion compared to $1.2 billion in the same period last year, while income from vessel operations increased to $821.2 million from $293.0 million.
(1) See Appendix B to this release for information about specific items affecting net income.
(2) Net voyage revenues represents voyage revenues less voyage expenses. Net voyage revenues is a non-GAAP financial measure used by certain investors to measure the financial performance of shipping companies. See the Company’s Web site at www.teekay.com for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure as used in this release to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

See the Company’s Web site at www.teekay.com for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure as used in this release to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
Spot Tanker Segment
Cash flow from vessel operations from the Company’s spot tanker segment increased to $240.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2004 from $89.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2003, primarily due to the significant increase in spot tanker charter rates, as well as the delivery of newbuildings and the chartering-in by the Company of additional vessels, partially offset by the sale of a number of older vessels during the past 12 months. On a net basis, these fleet changes reduced the total number of calendar-ship days in the Company’s spot tanker segment by 389 days, from 7,521 days in the fourth quarter of 2003 to 7,132 days in the fourth quarter of 2004.
Fixed-Rate Tanker Segment
For the quarter ended December 31, 2004, cash flow from vessel operations from the Company’s fixed-rate tanker segment increased to $75.5 million from $60.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2003, primarily due to the addition of five conventional tankers on long-term charter to ConocoPhillips and the inclusion of the results of Teekay Shipping Spain’s Suezmax tankers on long-term charters.
Fixed-Rate LNG Segment
The LNG segment for the fourth quarter of 2004 consisted of Teekay Shipping Spain’s three existing LNG carriers, which generated $13.3 million of cash flow from vessel operations for the quarter. At the end of the fourth quarter, the Company took delivery of its fourth newbuilding LNG carrier, which commenced service under a 20-year charter contract. Teekay had no LNG carriers prior to its acquisition of Naviera F. Tapias S.A. in April 2004.
The following table highlights the operating performance of the Company’s spot tanker segment measured in net voyage revenues per calendar-ship-day, or time-charter equivalent (TCE).

Tanker Market Overview
During the fourth quarter of 2004, tanker spot rates rose to the highest level in three decades as strong global oil demand growth and a higher level of oil supplies from long-haul sources increased the demand for tankers. In early 2005, reduced oil production by Middle East OPEC members, lower Iraqi oil exports, and unforeseen production outages in the North Sea caused tanker rates to decline, but remained at historically firm levels.
Global oil demand, an underlying driver of tanker demand, rose to 84.4 million barrels per day (mb/d) during the fourth quarter of 2004, an increase of 2.7% from the same period last year. Strong global economic growth led by China and non-OECD Asian countries helped push oil demand to record levels. For 2004 overall, the International Energy Agency (IEA) reported global oil demand growth of 2.7 mb/d, or 3.4%, from 2003. On February 10, 2005, the IEA raised its forecast for oil demand in 2005 to an average of 84.0 mb/d, an increase of 1.8% over 2004.
Global oil supply increased by 1.1 mb/d in the fourth quarter of 2004 from the prior quarter to 84.3 mb/d due in part to a 0.5 mb/d rise in long-haul Middle East OPEC oil production. Non-OPEC production rose by 0.6 mb/d as North Sea field maintenance was completed and United States production recovered from hurricane-related disruptions. At its January 30, 2005 meeting, OPEC (excluding Iraq) voted to leave its existing quota limit unchanged at 27.0 mb/d, citing a forecasted balance between oil supply and demand for the first quarter of 2005.
The size of the world tanker fleet rose to 334.0 million deadweight tonnes (mdwt) as of December 31, 2004, up 1.0% from the end of the previous quarter. Deletions aggregated 2.6 mdwt in the fourth quarter of 2004, up from 1.4 mdwt in the previous quarter, while deliveries of tanker newbuildings during the fourth quarter totaled 6.0 mdwt, down from 6.6 mdwt in the previous quarter. For 2004 overall, the world tanker fleet grew by 17 mdwt, or 5.4%, from the end of 2003, as total additions of 27.8 mdwt exceeded total deletions of 10.8 mdwt.
As at December 31, 2004, the world tanker order book rose to 89.6 mdwt, representing 26.8% of the total world tanker fleet, compared to 86.3 mdwt, or 26.1%, at the end of the previous quarter, and up from 77.6 mdwt, or 24.5%, as of December 31, 2003.
Teekay Fleet
As at December 31, 2004, Teekay’s fleet (excluding vessels managed for third parties) consisted of 154 vessels, including chartered-in vessels and newbuildings on order. During the fourth quarter, as part of its ongoing fleet renewal program, the Company sold six of its older tankers and took delivery of two newbuildings, a Suezmax tanker and an LNG carrier, both of which commenced service under 20-year fixed-rate charter contracts.
The following table summarizes the Teekay fleet as of December 31, 2004:

During the fourth quarter of 2004 and into the first quarter of 2005, the Company entered into agreements to sell an additional 10 vessels, consisting mainly of older Aframaxes. Expected total gross proceeds from the sale of these vessels is approximately $297.6 million. These vessels are scheduled for delivery to the buyers during the first quarter of 2005, at which time the Company expects to record a gain of approximately $103 million relating to their sale.

Share Repurchase
On November 24, 2004, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had authorized a share repurchase program of up to 3 million shares. During the fourth quarter, the Company repurchased 1.4 million shares, with the remaining 1.6 million shares repurchased early in the first quarter of 2005. The 3 million shares were repurchased for a total of $128.9 million, representing an average cost of $42.95 per share.
Teekay LNG Partners L.P.
On November 24, 2004, the Company announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Teekay LNG Partners L.P., had filed a registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for an initial public offering of its common units. Teekay LNG Partners L.P. was formed by Teekay as part of its strategy to expand its operations in the liquefied natural gas shipping sector. The partnership expects to offer 5,500,000 common units to the public, representing approximately 22 percent of the master limited partnership. After the offering, Teekay expects to own approximately a 78% interest in the partnership. The offering will increase to approximately 6,325,000 common units if the underwriters exercise in full their over-allotment option, reducing Teekay's ownership to approximately 75%.
