                 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
            (all tabular amounts stated in thousands of U.S. dollars)
          (Information as at December 31, 1998, and for the Three-Month
       and Nine Month Periods Ended December 31, 1998 and 1997 is unaudited)

  1.      Basis of Presentation

         The accompanying  unaudited interim  consolidated  financial statements
         have been prepared in accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting
         principles  in the United States and the rules and  regulations  of the
         Securities and Exchange  Commission.  Certain  information and footnote
         disclosures  required by generally accepted  accounting  principles for
         complete annual financial  statements have been omitted and, therefore,
         it is suggested  that these  interim  financial  statements  be read in
         conjunction  with the Company's  audited  financial  statements for the
         fiscal year ended March 31, 1998. In the opinion of  management,  these
         statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
         accruals),  necessary to present fairly, in all material respects,  the
         Company's  consolidated  financial position,  results of operations and
         cash flows for the interim periods presented. The results of operations
         for the three-month and nine-month  periods ended December 31, 1998 are
         not necessarily indicative of those for a full fiscal year.

  2.      Marketable Securities

         The Company's  investments  in marketable  securities are classified as
         available-for-sale  securities  and  are  carried  at fair  value.  Net
         unrealized  gains  or  losses  on  available-for-sale   securities,  if
         material, are reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity.
         The Company  classifies all marketable  securities with a maturity date
         of twelve months or less under current assets.

  3.      Cash Flows

         Cash interest  paid during the  nine-month  periods ended  December 31,
         1998  and  1997  totaled  approximately  $34,559,000  and  $33,782,000,
         respectively.

  4.      Income Taxes

         The legal  jurisdictions  of the countries in which the Company and the
         majority of its  subsidiaries  are  incorporated  do not impose  income
         taxes upon shipping-related activities.

                  TEEKAY SHIPPING CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

                 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
            (all tabular amounts stated in thousands of U.S. dollars)
          (Information as at December 31, 1998, and for the Three-Month
       and Nine-Month Periods Ended December 31, 1998 and 1997 is unaudited)

   5.    Long-Term Debt (cont'd)

         In August 1998, the Company redeemed the remaining $98.7 million of the
         9 5/8% First  Preferred  Ship Mortgage Notes ("the 9 5/8% Notes") which
         resulted  in an  extraordinary  loss of $7.3  million,  or 24 cents per
         share for the nine months ended  December 31, 1998.  The  redemption of
         the 9 5/8% Notes was  financed by a public  offering of Common Stock in
         June 1998 (see Note 6 - Capital Stock) and existing cash balances.

         The Company has a long-term  Revolving Credit Facility (the "Revolver")
         available which, as at December 31, 1998, provided for borrowings of up
         to $190.0 million.  Interest  payments are based on LIBOR plus a margin
         depending on the  financial  leverage of the  Company;  at December 31,
         1998,  the margin was + 0.50%.  The Revolver is  collaterized  by first
         priority  mortgages  granted on eight of the Company's Aframax tankers,
         together with certain other related  collateral,  and a guarantee  from
         the Company for all amounts outstanding under the Revolver.

         The 8.32% First Preferred Ship Mortgage Notes due February 1, 2008 (the
         "8.32% Notes") are collateralized by first preferred mortgages on seven
         of the Company's  Aframax tankers,  together with certain other related
         collateral, and are guaranteed by seven subsidiaries of Teekay that own
         the mortgaged  vessels (the "8.32% Notes Guarantor  Subsidiaries") to a
         maximum of 95% of the fair value of their net  assets.  As at  December
         31,  1998,  the fair  value of these  net  assets  approximated  $198.4
         million.

         Condensed financial  information regarding the Company, the 8.32% Notes
         Guarantor Subsidiaries and non-guarantor subsidiaries of the Company is
         set out in Schedule A of these consolidated financial statements.

            (all tabular amounts stated in thousands of U.S. dollars)
          (Information as at December 31, 1998, and for the Three-Month
      and Nine-Month Periods Ended December 31, 1998 and 1997 is unaudited)

6.       Capital Stock (cont'd)

         In June 1998,  the  Company  completed a public  offering of  7,000,000
         shares of Common Stock, of which  2,800,000  shares were offered by the
         Company and 4,200,000 shares were offered by a selling shareholder. The
         Company used its net proceeds from the offering of approximately  $68.8
         million,  together with other funds,  to redeem the  outstanding 9 5/8%
         Notes. (See Note 5 - Long Term Debt).

         In September 1998, the Company's  shareholders approved an amendment to
         the  Company's  1995 Stock  Option Plan (the  "Plan") to  increase  the
         number of shares of Common  Stock  reserved  and  available  for future
         grants of options under the Plan by an additional  1,800,000 shares. As
         of December 31, 1998 the Company had  3,641,750  shares of Common Stock
         reserved for issuance upon exercise of options granted  pursuant to the
         Plan. As of December 31, 1998, options to purchase a total of 1,728,866
         shares of the Company's Common Stock were outstanding of which  731,460
         options were then  exercisable at prices  ranging from $21.50 to $33.50
         per share. The options  will expire  between July 19, 2005 and June 13,
         2008, ten years after the date of the grant.

         The  Company's  basic  earnings  per share is based upon the  following
         weighted  average  number  of  shares  of  Common  Stock   outstanding:
         31,647,819  shares and 30,871,957  shares for the three and nine months
         ended  December  31,  1998,  respectively;  and  28,768,227  shares and
         28,600,028  shares for the three and nine  months  ended  December  31,
         1997,  respectively.  Diluted  earnings  per  share is  based  upon the
         following   weighted   average   number  of  shares  of  Common   Stock
         outstanding:  31,647,819 shares and 30,882,582 shares for the three and
         nine months  ended  December  31, 1998,  respectively;  and  29,017,095
         shares  and  28,820,693  shares  for the  three and nine  months  ended
         December 31, 1997, respectively.

                  TEEKAY SHIPPING CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
                                DECEMBER 31, 1998
                         PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General

Teekay  Shipping   Corporation   (the  "Company")  is  a  leading   provider  of
international crude oil and petroleum product  transportation  services to major
oil companies,  major oil traders, and government  agencies,  principally in the
region  spanning  from the Red Sea to the U.S. West Coast.  The Company's  fleet
consists of 47  tankers,  including  43 Aframax  oil  tankers  and  oil/bulk/ore
carriers, (including five vessels time-chartered-in), three smaller tankers, and
one Very Large Crude Carrier ("VLCC"),  for a total  cargo-carrying  capacity of
approximately 4.7 million tonnes.  In addition,  the Company has entered into an
agreement to purchase two newbuilding  Aframax tankers,  which are scheduled for
delivery in July and September 1999.

During the nine-month period ended December 31, 1998,  approximately  58% of the
Company's net voyage  revenue was derived from spot voyages.  The balance of the
Company's revenue is generated by two other modes of employment:  time charters,
whereby vessels are chartered to customers for a fixed period;  and by contracts
of  affreightment  ("COAs"),  whereby the Company  carries an agreed quantity of
cargo for a customer over a specified trade  route within a specified  period of
time.  During the nine-month period ended  December 31, 1998,  13% of net voyage
revenues was generated by time-charters  and COAs priced on a spot market basis.
In  the  aggregate,  approximately  71%  of  the  Company's  net voyage  revenue
during  the  nine-month  period  ended  December 31, 1998  was derived from spot
voyages  or  time-charters  and  COAs  priced  on  a spot market basis, with the
remaining  29%  being  derived  from  fixed  rate  time-charters and COAs.  This
dependence  on  the  spot  market,  which  is within industry norms, contributes
to the  volatility  of the  Company's  revenue,  cash flow  from operations, and
net income.

Historically, the tanker industry has been cyclical,  experiencing volatility in
profitability  and asset  values  resulting  from  changes in the supply of, and
demand for,  vessel  capacity.  Additionally,  tanker markets have  historically
exhibited  seasonal  variations in charter  rates.  Tanker markets are typically
stronger in the winter  months as a result of increased oil  consumption  in the
northern  hemisphere and  unpredictable  winter  weather  patterns which tend to
disrupt vessel scheduling.

In December  1997,  the Company  acquired two vessels and related  shore support
services from an Australian  affiliate of Caltex  Petroleum.  These two tankers,
together  with  one  of  the  Company's  existing  Aframax  tankers,  have  been
time-chartered  to  the  Caltex  affiliate  in  connection  with  the  Company's
provision of Caltex's oil transportation  requirements formerly provided by that
affiliate.  The Company has converted one of its existing  vessels to a floating
storage and off-loading vessel, which is sharing crews with the vessels employed
in the Caltex arrangement (together with the other three vessels involved in the
arrangement,  the  "Australian  Vessels").  Vessel  operating  expenses  for the
Australian  Vessels  are  substantially  higher  than  those for the rest of the
Company's fleet, primarily as a result of higher costs associated with employing
an Australian crew. The TCE rates (as defined below) for the Australian  Vessels
are  correspondingly  higher to compensate for these increased costs. During the
nine month period ended  December 31, 1998,  the  Australian  Vessels earned net
voyage   revenues  and  an  average  TCE  rate  of  $28.7  million  and  $26,295
respectively, and incurred vessel operating expenses of $11.0 million or $10,029
on a per ship per day basis. The results of the Australian  Vessels are included
in the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements included herein.

Bulk shipping  industry  freight  rates are commonly  measured at the net voyage
revenue level in terms of "time charter equivalent" (or "TCE") rates, defined as
voyage  revenues  less  voyage  expenses  (excluding  commissions),  divided  by
revenue-generating  ship-days for the  round-trip  voyage.  Voyage  revenues and
voyage  expenses  are a function of the type of charter,  either spot charter or
time charter,  and port,  canal and fuel costs depending on the trade route upon
which a vessel is  sailing,  in  addition  to being a  function  of the level of
shipping  freight rates.  For this reason,  shipowners  base economic  decisions
regarding  the  deployment  of their  vessels upon  anticipated  TCE rates,  and
industry analysts  typically measure bulk shipping freight rates in terms of TCE
rates. Therefore,  the discussion of revenue below focuses on net voyage revenue
and TCE rates.

Three Months Ended December 31, 1998 versus Three Months Ended December 31, 1997

The Company's net income was $5.1 million,  or 16 cents per share,  in the third
quarter of fiscal 1999,  down from $28.6 million,  or 99 cents per share, in the
third  quarter  of  fiscal 1998. Net income for the third quarter of fiscal 1998
included  $10.5  million,  or  36  cents per share,  in  gains on  asset  sales.
There  were no  asset  sales in the  current quarter. The decrease in net income
is due primarily to a  decline in TCE rates, partially offset by an  increase in
the  Company's  fleet  size.  In  the  third quarter of fiscal 1999, the Company
earned  an  average  TCE  rate  of $18,411, down 18.6% from $22,613 in the third
quarter of fiscal 1998.  The  Company's  average fleet  size  was  10.2%  larger
in the third  quarter of fiscal 1999 than in the third quarter of  fiscal  1998,
as  two  older  vessels  were  sold and five newer vessels  were  added  to  the
Company's fleet (including three time-chartered-in vessels) since the end of the
third quarter of fiscal 1998.

Aframax  TCE  rates  on  the  Gulf-East  routes declined at the beginning of the
current  quarter,  and  have  remained  at  this  lower  level as a result of an
increase  in  tanker  supply  in  conjunction  with  stable  oil  demand. In the
near-term,  the Company believes that TCE rates could remain weak as a result of
low tanker demand growth, relatively high world oil inventories, and an increase
in  the number of newbuilding  tankers that are expected  to  be  delivered over
the  next  twelve  months. As a result of the Company's dependence on the tanker
spot market, any decline in Aframax TCE rates will reduce the Company's revenues
and earnings.

Income from Vessel Operations

Net voyage  revenues  were $73.2  million in the third quarter of fiscal 1999, a
decrease of 9.3% from $80.7  million in the third  quarter of fiscal  1998.  The
decrease  mainly reflects lower spot market TCE rates,  partially  offset by the
increase  in  the  Company's  fleet  size  and  higher  TCE  rates earned on the
Australian Vessels.

Vessel operating expenses include crewing,  repairs and maintenance,  insurance,
stores and lubes, and miscellaneous expenses,  including communications.  Vessel
operating  expenses  increased  15.1% to $20.4  million in the third  quarter of
fiscal 1999 from $17.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1998, primarily as
a result of higher crewing costs associated with the Australian Vessels.

Time-charter  hire expense was $8.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1999,
up from $3.3  million  in the third  quarter  of fiscal  1998,  as the number of
vessels  time-chartered-in by the Company increased to five in the third quarter
of fiscal 1999, compared to two in the third quarter of fiscal 1998.

Depreciation and amortization  expense  increased 1.3% from $23.5 million in the
third  quarter of fiscal  1998 to $23.8  million in the third  quarter of fiscal
1999,  due to an  increase  in  average  cost  of the  Company's  owned  vessels
resulting from the  modernization  of the fleet during the past year,  partially
offset  by  lower  amortization  of  drydocking costs during the current period.
Depreciation and amortization  expense included amortization of drydocking costs
of $2.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1999 compared to $2.8  million in
the third quarter of fiscal 1998.

General and administrative expenses increased 24.9% to $6.6 million in the third
quarter of fiscal 1999 from $5.3  million in the third  quarter of fiscal  1998,
mainly as a result of the hiring of additional  personnel in connection with the
expansion of the Company's operations, particularly in Australia.

Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased 24.7% to $10.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal
1999,  from $13.5  million in the third  quarter of fiscal  1998,  reflecting  a
reduction in the Company's total debt and lower average  interest rates. In June
1998, the Company  completed a public  offering of its Common Stock resulting in
net proceeds to the Company of approximately $69.0 million.  These net proceeds,
together  with other funds,  were applied in August 1998 to redeem the Company's
outstanding 9 5/8% Notes.



<PAGE>15


Nine Months Ended December 31, 1998 versus Nine Months Ended December 31, 1997

Net income for the first nine months of fiscal 1999 before  extraordinary  items
was  $50.8  million,  or $1.65  per  share,  compared  to a net  income of $54.9
million,  or $1.92 cents per share, in the first nine months of fiscal 1998. Net
income after  extraordinary items was $43.5 million, or $1.41 per share, for the
first nine months of fiscal 1999.  This included an  extraordinary  loss of $7.3
million, or 24 cents per share, arising from the redemption of the 9 5/8% Notes.
Net income  for the first nine  months of fiscal  1999  included  gains on asset
sales of $7.1 million, or 23 cents per share, compared to $14.4 million of gains
on  asset  sales,  or  50 cents per share, for the same period one year ago. The
increase in net income excluding gains on asset sales and extraordinary items is
due  primarily  to  lower  interest  expense  and an increase in the size of the
Company's  fleet,  partially  offset  by  the  decline in TCE rates. The Company
earned an average TCE rate of $20,897 in the first nine months of fiscal 1999, a
reduction  of  1.4%  from $21,201 in the first nine months of fiscal 1998. Since
December  1997,  the Company sold two older vessels and added five newer vessels
to  the  fleet  (including  three  time-chartered-in  vessels). As a result, the
Company's fleet was 9.3%  larger on  average  in the first nine months of fiscal
1999 than during the first nine months of fiscal 1998.

Income from Vessel Operations

Net voyage revenues were $248.4 million in the first nine months of fiscal 1999,
an increase of 9.6% from $226.7 million in the first nine months of fiscal 1998,
mainly  reflecting the increase in the Company's fleet size and higher TCE rates
earned on the Australian Vessels, partially offset by lower spot TCE Rates.

Vessel  operating  expenses  increased  14.5% to $62.1 million in the first nine
months of fiscal  1999 from $54.3  million  in the first  nine  months of fiscal
1998,  mainly as a result of higher  crewing  costs  related  to the  Australian
Vessels.

Time-charter hire expense increased to $21.9 million in the first nine months of
fiscal  1999 from $7.4  million in the first nine months of fiscal  1998,  as an
average  of  4.3  vessels were time-chartered-in by the Company during the first
nine months of fiscal 1999,  compared to only 1.5 vessels during the same period
last year.

Depreciation and  amortization  expense for the first nine months of fiscal 1999
was $71.7 million,  up slightly from $71.1 million over the same period one year
ago, as a result of an increase in the average cost per vessel, offset by  lower
amortization  of  drydocking  costs  during the current period. Depreciation and
amortization  expense  included amortization of drydocking costs of $6.9 million
in the first nine months of fiscal 1999 in comparison to  $9.2  million  in  the
first nine months of fiscal 1998.

General  and  administrative  expenses  rose 18.1% to $17.7 million in the first
nine months of fiscal 1999 from $15.0 million in the first nine months of fiscal
1998,  mainly  as a  result of  the hiring of additional personnel in connection
with the expansion  of  the  Company's  operations, particularly in Australia.

Interest Expense

Interest  expense  decreased  17.1% to $35.0 million in the first nine months of
fiscal  1999 from  $42.2  million  in the  first  nine  months  of fiscal  1998,
reflecting a reduction in the Company's  total debt and lower interest rates. In
August 1998,  the Company  applied the net proceeds from its public  offering of
Common Stock, together with other funds, to redeem its outstanding 9 5/8% Notes.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's  total  liquidity,  including  cash,  marketable  securities,  and
undrawn  long-term  lines of credit,  decreased to $163.4 million as at December
31, 1998 from $186.3  million as at March 31, 1998.  The decrease was  primarily
the  result  of the use of cash balances to redeem the Company's 9 5/8% Notes in
August 1998 and progress  payments on the Company's two  newbuildings, offset in
part  by, among other things,  proceeds from the  Company's  public  offering of
Common  Stock  in  June  1998,  cash flow from operations, and proceeds from the
disposition  of  two  older  vessels.  The  Company  received  net  proceeds  of
approximately $69.0 million in the public  offering,  which were used,  together
with  other  funds,  to redeem the outstanding  balance of the 9 5/8% Notes. The
redemption  resulted  in  the  release  of  mortgages  on  the six vessels which
collateralized the 9 5/8% Notes, making a total of twelve  unencumbered  vessels
in the Company's fleet as of December 31, 1998.

Net cash flow from operating activities decreased to $117.6 million in the first
nine months of fiscal 1999,  compared to $126.9 million in the first nine months
of fiscal 1998. This reflects the decline in TCE rates during the current fiscal
period, as well as, temporary changes in non-cash working capital.

The Company's scheduled debt repayments were $54.4 million during the first nine
months of fiscal 1999,  up from $32.7 million in the first nine months of fiscal
1998,  mainly as a result of a $25 million  sinking  fund  payment on the 9 5/8%
Notes in July 1998.

Dividend  payments  during  the first  nine  months of  fiscal  1999 were  $19.8
million,  or 64 cents per share, of which $19.4 million was paid in cash and the
remainder  was paid in the form of  shares  of  Common  Stock  issued  under the
Company's dividend reinvestment plan.
<PAGE>17

During  the first nine  months of fiscal  1999,  the  Company  incurred  capital
expenditures  for vessels and equipment of $65.2 million,  consisting  mainly of
payments made towards the two newbuilding  double-hull Aframax tankers scheduled
for delivery in July and September of 1999 and costs  related to the  conversion
of  a tanker into a floating storage and off-loading vessel. The Company intends
to pay for the remaining  cost  of  approximately  $19.8  million  for  the  two
newbuilding  vessels  by using  existing  cash  balances,  borrowings  under the
Revolver or other debt  financing.  Cash  expenditures  for drydocking were $9.5
million in the first nine months of fiscal 1999 compared to $14.7 million in the
same period one year ago, reflecting a reduction in scheduled  drydockings.  Two
older  vessels were sold during the first nine months of fiscal 1999,  resulting
in net proceeds of $23.4 million.

As part of its growth strategy,  the Company will continue to consider strategic
opportunities, including the acquisition of additional vessels and the expansion
into new markets.  The Company may choose to pursue such  opportunities  through
internal growth, joint ventures, or business  acquisitions.  The Company intends
to finance any future acquisitions through various sources of capital, including
internally   generated  cash  flow,  existing  credit  lines,   additional  debt
borrowings, and the issuance of additional shares of capital stock.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

The  Company  relies  on  computer  systems,  software,  databases, third  party
electronic  data  interchange interfaces  and  embedded  processors  to  operate
its  business.  Some  of  these  applications  may  be  unable  to appropriately
interpret the calendar year 2000 and certain  other  dates  and  some  level  of
modification or replacement of such applications will be necessary.

The Company has been actively  engaged in  systematically  addressing  the  Year
2000 problem since December 1997. A Year 2000 Compliance  Task  Force  comprised
of  employees  from  a  broad  cross  section  of the Company has  been  charged
with  the  task  of  ensuring that the Company  achieves  Year 2000  compliance.
The  Company   expects to be largely Year 2000  compliant  by the summer of this
year,  and to achieve  full  Year  2000 compliance by mid-November of this year.

The Company's Year 2000 compliance project has been divided into several phases.

1.    First,  the  Company   completed  a  business  and safety risk analysis to
      prioritize  the  efforts  of  the Year 2000 Task Force. Those areas of the
      Company's operations  that posed the greatest safety risk or were the most
      important  to  the  survival and continuity of the business were  assigned
      the highest priority.

2.    Second,  a  full  inventory  of  all  computer   hardware   and   software
      applications,  and  all  systems which utilize "embedded chips",  both  on
      the  ships  and  in  the Company's offices,  has been completed.  Embedded
      chips  are   used,   for   example,  in  navigation systems, communication
      systems,  safety   and  detection   systems,   and electrical and electro-
      mechanical control  systems on the Company's vessels.

3.    Third,  a  comprehensive  audit and test program of information technology
      and  non-information  technology  systems,  such  as  embedded  chips, was
      developed and is being deployed to ensure seamless operation  through  all
      of  the dates which have been identified as potentially problematic. These
      dates  include  August 22, 1999,  September 9, 1999,  January 1, 2000, and
      February 29, 2000. Extensive off-line testing will be conducted on vessels
      in  drydock  during  the  year and safe off-line testing will be conducted
      on  the  remaining  fleet during the normal course of operations.  We have
      requested,  and  in  many  cases have received, Certificates of Compliance
      from  the  manufacturers  of  the  equipment identified  in  the inventory
      phase  as possibly  containing date sensitive functions.  In addition, the
      Company  has  completed  a  "Year  2000  Readiness  Survey" with  its  top
      customers,  lenders,  suppliers  and  other  organizations  with which  it
      conducts  business.  This  survey  has  confirmed  that  our  key business
      partners are aware of the Year 2000 issue  and are actively working toward
      Year 2000 compliance. This "investigation  phase" is virtually complete at
      this time.

4.    Fourth,  the Company is currently undertaking remedial action with respect
      to  all   non-compliant  systems  and  items.  Remedial  action   includes
      modifying,  repairing  or  replacing  systems  or  items which are of high
      safety  or  business criticality,  or  a  "work around"  strategy for less
      critical  systems. This phase also  includes  testing  remediated  systems
      to ensure compliance. The Company expects to complete the majority of this
      work  by  the middle of this year before the potentially problematic dates
      mentioned  above.  However,  the Company's two Australian-flagged  product
      tankers  must  be  drydocked  to  have  the remedial work done. The second
      vessel  may  not  be  completed  until mid November 1999.

5.    The final phase consists of preparing contingency  plans, vessel placement
      strategies  and  business  continuity plans. These plans will be developed
      and refined in consultation with our key business partners. It is expected
      this planning process will continue for the balance of this year.


<PAGE>18

Although  the  Company  expects  to  be  Year 2000 compliant in a timely manner,
no assurance can be given that  all  of the Company's  systems will be Year 2000
compliant or that its customers, lenders,  suppliers or the other  organizations
with  which  it  conducts  business  will  become fully Year 2000 compliant in a
timely manner. If  the Company  does not  achieve full  compliance in  a  timely
manner or complete its  Year 2000  project within its  current cost estimates,or
if  one  or more of its key customers, lenders, suppliers or other organizations
with  which it  does  business  fails to become  fully  Year 2000 compliant, the
Company's  business,  financial  condition  and  results  of operations could be
adversely  affected.  There  are also risks inherent in the Company's operations
arising from the potential failure of systems and equipment aboard other vessels
sharing  navigable  waters  with  the  Company's  vessels  as  well  as problems
which  could  arise  from  the  malfunction  or  failure of port and shore-based
infrastructure systems.

The  Company  estimates  that it will cost $2.0  million  to  achieve  Year 2000
compliance.  The majority of these costs will either be recovered  directly from
customers of the Company pursuant to contractual arrangements currently in place
or  represent  ongoing  equipment  upgrades  which  would  have been  undertaken
regardless  of Year 2000  issues.  Based on the  findings  of the Year 2000 Task
Force to date, the Company does not expect Year 2000 compliance  costs to have a
material adverse effect on the Company.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This  Report  on Form 6-K for the  quarterly  period  ended  December  31,  1998
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 future events and financial performance, in particular the statements
regarding Aframax TCE rates in the near-term;  supply and demand for oil; future
capital  expenditures,  including  expenditures  for  newbuilding  vessels;  the
Company's growth strategy and expansion; and Year 2000 compliance. The following
factors  are  among  those  that could cause actual results to differ materially
from the forward-looking statements  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 including Asia; the cyclical
nature of the tanker industry and its  dependence  on oil markets;  greater than
anticipated levels of tanker  newbuilding  orders or less than anticipated rates
of  tanker  scrapping;  the  supply  of tankers available to meet the demand for
transportation of petroleum products; changes in trading  patterns significantly
impacting  overall  tanker  tonnage  requirements; changes in demand for modern,
high  quality  vessels;  the  Company's  dependence  on  spot  oil  voyages; the
Company's  potential  inability  to  achieve  and  manage  growth; the potential
inability  of the Company to generate internal cash flow and  obtain  additional
debt  or  equity financing to fund capital expenditures and progress payments on
newbuildings;   the   Company's   potential   inability   to  identify  embedded
processors  in a timely manner or to achieve Year 2000 compliance within current
cost  estimates;  the  failure  of  the  Company's  key  business  partners   to
achieve  Year  2000  compliance  and  the subsequent  impact  on  the  Company's
operating  results;  and  other  risks  detailed from   time   to  time  in  the
Company's  periodic  reports  filed  with  the  U.S.  Securities  and   Exchange
Commission. The Company may issue  additional written  or  oral  forward-looking
statements from  time to  time  which  are qualified  in  their entirety  by the
cautionary  statements  contained  in  this  paragraph   and  in  other  reports
hereafter  filed  by  the  Company  with  the  U.S.  Securities   and   Exchange
Commission.
