Øivind Tangen, CEO of SBM Offshore, commented:
“Thanks to solid project execution performance and the start-up of two major FPSOs, we delivered strong financial results for the first half of 2025. As a result, we are increasing both our Directional revenue and EBITDA guidance for 2025. This success underscores our teams' ability and discipline in executing our lifecycle model. It is also a clear demonstration of a resilient business model, consistently proving its quality and agility regardless of macro-economic uncertainties and geopolitical challenges.
During the first half of the year, we brought online two large FPSOs in Brazil with a combined capacity of 405,000 bbls/day. Additionally, FPSO ONE GUYANA, which will be the largest producing unit in Guyana with a nameplate capacity of 250,000 bbls/day, is on charter as of August 4 and preparing for first oil. Delivery of these three assets brings the size of our fleet to 17 FPSOs with a production capacity of 2.7 million bbls/day.
This scale brings experience, learnings and data which allow us to continuously refine our lifecycle value proposition and deliver enhanced value to our clients by derisking project execution, accelerating time to reach full operational capacity and improving uptime. Construction is on track for FPSOs Jaguar, GranMorgu and FSO Trion.
The last two FPSOs that started production in Brazil achieved flare out in an industry-leading average below 45 days, and we achieved an uptime average of
The deepwater market outlook remains robust, driven by the demand for cost-efficient and low-emission oil production. We are progressing construction of two new hulls to actively support tendering activities and remain disciplined in selecting prospects where we can generate most value to enhance our portfolio.
The strong fundamentals of the deepwater market, coupled with our backlog's resilience to inflationary pressures, underpins our ability to provide stable and growing returns to shareholders. We are on track to return a minimum of US
Using our ocean infrastructure expertise, we are innovating for the long term with purpose. In April 2025, we secured the American Bureau of Shipping’s approval in principle for our near zero emission FPSO, and our collaboration with Microsoft to develop standardized floating power solutions with integrated carbon capture technology is progressing.
We are delivering on our promise to provide reliable, affordable, and sustainable energy for the long-term through a strategy that pays.”

Pro-Forma Directional Backlog
Changes in ownership scenarios and lease contract durations have the potential to significantly impact the Company's future cash flows, net debt balance as well as the profit and loss statement. The Company therefore provides a pro-forma Directional backlog based on the best available information regarding ownership scenarios and lease contract durations for the various projects.
The pro-forma Directional backlog decreased by US

Total pro-forma Directional backlog | | 6.8 | 26.4 | 33.2 |
The pro-forma Directional backlog at June 30, 2025 reflects the following key assumptions:
- The FPSO ONE GUYANA contract covers a maximum lease period of 2 years, within which the ownership of the FPSO will transfer to the client. The impact of the subsequent sale is reflected in the Turnkey backlog.
- The FPSO Jaguar contract awarded to the Company in April 2024 covers the construction period within which the ownership of the FPSO will transfer to the client and is reported in the Turnkey backlog.
- 10 years of operations and maintenance are considered for FPSOs Liza Destiny, Liza Unity, Prosperity and ONE GUYANA following signature of the Operations & Maintenance Enabling Agreement in 2023. Regarding FPSO Jaguar, the pro-forma Directional backlog includes the operating and maintenance scope for 10 years as it has been agreed in principle, pending a final work order. This is consistent with prior years.
- The FPSO GranMorgu contract awarded in November 2024 covers the construction period within which the FPSO ownership will transfer to the client and is reported in the Turnkey backlog. The operations and maintenance contract signed in June 2025 covers a minimal period of two years after first oil.
- The FSO Trion contract awarded to the Company in August 2024 is considered for 20 years in lease and operate contracts at the Company ownership share at June 30, 2025 (
100% ). - The full divestment of FPSO Aseng has been reflected in the pro-forma backlog. The completion of the transaction remains subject to several conditions precedent and approvals.
- Leases, operations and maintenance contract extension options are considered when secured.
It should be noted that the sale and leaseback financing agreement for FPSO Cidade de Paraty signed in April 2025 did not impact the pro-forma Directional backlog. Under Directional reporting, the transaction is not treated as a sale of the unit according to IFRS 16.
