Insights
KNOT Offshore Partners' Q2 2024 results show a mixed financial picture. Total revenues of
Positively, the Partnership has
The available liquidity of
The shuttle tanker market outlook appears positive, particularly in Brazil. Petrobras' high production levels and new FPSO start-ups in pre-salt fields are driving demand. This tightening market could benefit KNOT Offshore Partners, potentially leading to higher charter rates and improved utilization.
The North Sea market remains challenging but shows signs of improvement with the Johan Castberg FPSO deployment. The orderbook of 11 new shuttle tankers over the next three years suggests industry confidence in long-term demand, but it's important to monitor how this supply increase aligns with production growth.
KNOT's position as the largest shuttle tanker operator, combined with its sponsor Knutsen NYK's newbuild orders, positions it well to capitalize on market growth. However, the smaller size of vessels like Dan Sabia in the evolving Brazilian market highlights the need for fleet optimization and potential challenges in redeployment or sale of less optimal assets.
The Partnership's omnibus agreement with Knutsen NYK provides a potential growth pipeline through vessel acquisition options. However, the lack of guarantees and requirement for Conflicts Committee approval introduces uncertainty and potential conflicts of interest that investors should be aware of.
The Tuva Knutsen acquisition includes a 7-year hire rate guarantee from Knutsen NYK, effectively mitigating charter rate risk until 2031. This arrangement demonstrates strong sponsor support but also highlights the interconnected nature of the Partnership's operations with its parent company.
The impairment charges on Dan Cisne and Dan Sabia reflect adherence to US GAAP accounting standards. While this impacts short-term profitability, it represents a prudent approach to asset valuation in changing market conditions. Investors should monitor future impairment risks, especially for older or less optimally sized vessels in the fleet.

Fleet operated with
98.8% utilization for scheduled operations in Q2 2024. -
On July 9, 2024, the Partnership declared a quarterly cash distribution of
per common unit with respect to Q2 2024, which was paid on August 8, 2024, to all common unitholders of record on July 29, 2024. On the same day, the Partnership declared a quarterly cash distribution to holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Units (“Series A Preferred Units”) with respect to Q2 2024 in an aggregate amount of$0.02 6 .$1.7 million - On April 12, 2024, an agreement was reached with Eni, on terms no less favourable to the Partnership than applied previously, to delay delivery of Ingrid Knutsen until October 2024 for a time charter for a fixed period of two years plus two charterer’s options each of one year. In connection therewith, on July 25, 2024, a time charter due to commence Q4 2024 was executed with Eni in respect of the Torill Knutsen for a fixed period of three years plus three charterer’s options each of one year.
- On April 17, 2024 a time charter for the Carmen Knutsen was executed with an oil major, to commence Q1 2026 for a fixed period of four years plus a charterer’s option for one additional year.
- On April 22, 2024, the Ingrid Knutsen began operating under a rolling monthly time charter with our sponsor Knutsen NYK Offshore Tankers AS (“Knutsen NYK”) at a reduced charter rate, to expire upon her delivery to Eni in October 2024.
-
On May 22, 2024, Knutsen Shuttle Tankers 14 AS, the Partnership’s wholly-owned subsidiary which owns the vessel Hilda Knutsen, closed a new
senior secured term loan facility with DNB and Nordea, which is secured by the Hilda Knutsen. This new facility replaced the facility with Mitsubishi UFJ Lease & Finance ($60 million Hong Kong ) Limited, which also was secured by the Hilda Knutsen and was repaid on the closing date with a balloon payment of .$58.5 million -
On July 10, 2024, the Partnership received the Dan Sabia back via redelivery, following expiry of its bareboat charter party to Transpetro. The Dan Sabia is being marketed for shuttle tanker operation principally in
Brazil and remains available also for charter to Knutsen NYK (subject to negotiation and approvals) and short-term conventional tanker contracts. -
On August 15, 2024, repair work on the Torill Knutsen was completed following the breakage of a generator rotor in January 2024. The Torill Knutsen remained able to serve a limited range of client facilities, and the Partnership expects to be compensated by insurance for the extent to which, as a consequence of this breakage, the Torill Knutsen’s earnings have fallen short of a contractual hire rate, commencing 14 days after the date of the breakage. The Partnership also expects that the repair cost will be covered by insurance, in excess of a deductible of
.$150,000 - On August 22, 2024, the Partnership agreed with Shell to extend by 1 year the charters for Tordis Knutsen and Lena Knutsen and to provide Shell with options to extend each of these charters by up to 3 periods of 1 year each. Thus, the fixed charter period for each charter will extend until 2028 and the option periods will extend until 2031.
-
On September 3, 2024, the Partnership’s wholly owned subsidiary, KNOT Shuttle Tankers AS (“KST”), acquired KNOT Shuttle Tankers 31 AS, the company that owns the shuttle tanker Tuva Knutsen, from Knutsen NYK (the “Tuva Knutsen Acquisition”). Simultaneously, KST sold KNOT Shuttle Tankers 20 AS, the company that owns the shuttle tanker Dan Cisne, to Knutsen NYK (the “Dan Cisne Sale”). The purchase price for the Tuva Knutsen Acquisition was
less$97.5 million of outstanding debt plus$69.0 million of capitalized fees related to the credit facility secured by the Tuva Knutsen. The sale price for the Dan Cisne Sale was$0.4 million and there was no related debt. The combination of the Tuva Knutsen Acquisition and the Dan Cisne Sale was settled by a net cash payment from Knutsen NYK to KST of$30 million (relating to the difference between the prices of the respective transactions). Customary adjustments relating to working capital and an associated interest rate swap will also be made following the closing.$1.1 million

Derek Lowe, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of KNOT Offshore Partners LP, stated, “We are pleased to report another strong performance in Q2 2024, marked by safe operation at over
"Including the swap of the Dan Cisne for the Tuva Knutsen and those contracts signed since June 30, 2024, we now have
"In Brazil, the main offshore oil market where we operate, the outlook is continuing to improve, with robust demand and increasing charter rates. Driven by Petrobras’ continued high production levels and FPSO start-ups in the pre-salt fields that rely upon shuttle tankers, we believe the world’s biggest shuttle tanker market is tightening materially. Our secondary geography, in the North Sea, is taking longer to re-balance, but we welcome the recent news of the long-anticipated Johan Castberg FPSO having recently set sail for the Barents Sea, where it is scheduled to begin production later this year.
"We are aware that Knutsen NYK has ordered three new shuttle tankers to be chartered to Petrobras with delivery over 2026-2027; and we note reports of another operator ordering three new shuttle tankers, with delivery by early 2027. We anticipate that all these new orders are backed by charters to clients in
As the largest owner and operator of shuttle tankers (together with our sponsor, Knutsen NYK), we believe we are well positioned to benefit from such an improving charter market. We are pleased to have agreed the swap of the Dan Cisne for the Tuva Knutsen, which provides growth for the fleet without a requirement for new funding, while also increasing our pipeline of long-term contracts, reducing our average fleet age, and concentrating our fleet in the most in-demand shuttle tanker class. We remain focused on generating certainty and stability of cashflows from long-term employment with high quality counterparties, and are confident that continued operational performance and execution of our strategy can create unitholder value in the quarters and years ahead.”
Financial Results Overview
Results for Q2 2024 (compared to those for the three months ended March 31, 2024 (“Q1 2024”)) included:
-
Revenues of
in Q2 2024 ($74.4 million in Q1 2024), with the decrease due to lower revenues related to spot voyages compared with those performed in Q1 2024.$76.6 million -
Vessel operating expenses of
in Q2 2024 ($27.0 million in Q1 2024), with the increase due to higher vessel service and repair related cost, in addition to an increase in port expenses and IT related costs.$25.9 million -
Depreciation of
in Q2 2024 ($27.7 million in Q1 2024).$27.7 million -
Impairments in respect of the Dan Cisne and Dan Sabia of
and$5.8 million , respectively, were recognized in Q2 2024, while there were no impairments in Q1 2024. In accordance with US GAAP, the Partnership’s fleet is regularly assessed for impairment as events or changes in circumstances may indicate that a vessel’s net carrying value exceeds the net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated over its remaining useful life, and in such situation the carrying amount of the vessel is reduced to its estimated fair value. This exercise in Q2 2024 resulted in an impairment in respect of these vessels owing to their lack of long-term charters in a context where their smaller size is not optimal for the Brazilian market and affects the outlook for future employment.$10.6 million -
General and administrative expenses of
in Q2 2024 ($1.4 million in Q1 2024).$1.6 million -
Operating income consequently of
in Q2 2024 ($1.3 million in Q1 2024). When adjusted to remove the impact of the impairment, operating income for Q2 2024 was$19.7 million .$17.7 million -
Interest expense of
in Q2 2024 ($16.9 million in Q1 2024) with the decrease due to outstanding debt decreasing and lower interest rates.$17.5 million -
Realized and unrealized gain on derivative instruments of
in Q2 2024 (gain of$1.8 million in Q1 2024), including unrealized loss (i.e. non-cash) elements of$5.0 million in Q2 2024 (gain of$2.2 million in Q1 2024).$0.9 million -
Net loss consequently of
in Q2 2024 (net income of$12.9 million in Q1 2024). When adjusted to remove the impact of the impairment, net income in Q2 2024 was$7.4 million .$3.5 million
By comparison with the three months ended June 30, 2023 (“Q2 2023”), results for Q2 2024 included:
-
an increase of
in operating income (to$32.5 million in Q2 2024 from a loss of$1.3 million in Q2 2023), driven primarily by a reduction in the impairments of the Dan Cisne and Dan Sabia of$31.2 million in Q2 2024 compared with impairments of$16.4 million in Q2 2023; and driven also by higher time charter and bareboat revenues partly offset by higher vessel operating expenses;$49.6 million -
an increase of
in finance expense (to finance expense of$4.9 million in Q2 2024 from finance expense of$14.0 million in Q2 2023), due to lower realized and unrealized gain on derivative instruments, partly offset by lower interest expenses.$9.1 million -
a reduction of
in net loss (to a net loss of$27.5 million in Q2 2024 from a net loss of$12.9 million in Q2 2023).$40.4 million

Outlook
At June 30, 2024, the Partnership’s fleet of eighteen vessels had an average age of 10.2 years, and the Partnership had charters with an average remaining fixed duration of 2.3 years, with the charterers of the Partnership’s vessels having options to extend their charters by an additional 2.3 years on average. The Partnership had
The market for shuttle tankers in
Shuttle tanker demand in the North Sea has remained subdued, driven by the impact of COVID-19-related project delays. We expect these conditions to persist for several more quarters until new oil production projects that are anticipated come on stream, most notably the long-anticipated Johan Castberg field in the Barents Sea, which is scheduled to come online later this year.
Looking ahead, based on supply and demand factors with significant forward visibility and committed capital from industry participants, we believe that the overall medium and long-term outlook for the shuttle tanker market remains favourable.
In the meantime, the Partnership intends to pursue long-term visibility from its charter contracts, build its liquidity, and position itself to benefit from its market-leading position in an improving shuttle tanker market.
The Partnership’s financial information for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 included in this press release is preliminary and unaudited and is subject to change in connection with the completion of the Partnership’s quarter end close procedures and further financial review. Actual results may differ as a result of the completion of the Partnership’s quarter end closing procedures, review adjustments and other developments that may arise between now and the time such financial information for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 is finalized.

EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, depreciation, impairments and taxes. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, depreciation, impairments, taxes and other financial items (including other finance expenses, realized and unrealized gain (loss) on derivative instruments and net gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions). EBITDA is used as a supplemental financial measure by management and external users of financial statements, such as the Partnership’s lenders, to assess its financial and operating performance and compliance with the financial covenants and restrictions contained in its financing agreements. Adjusted EBITDA is used as a supplemental financial measure by management and external users of financial statements, such as investors, to assess the Partnership’s financial and operating performance. The Partnership believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA assist its management and investors by increasing the comparability of its performance from period to period and against the performance of other companies in its industry that provide EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA information. This increased comparability is achieved by excluding the potentially disparate effects between periods or companies of interest, other financial items, taxes, impairments and depreciation, as applicable, which items are affected by various and possibly changing financing methods, capital structure and historical cost basis and which items may significantly affect net income between periods. The Partnership believes that including EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as financial measures benefits investors in (a) selecting between investing in the Partnership and other investment alternatives and (b) monitoring the Partnership’s ongoing financial and operational strength in assessing whether to continue to hold common units. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be considered as alternatives to net income or any other indicator of Partnership performance calculated in accordance with GAAP.
The table below reconciles EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
