Overview and Macroeconomic Environment
−Removed: We provide hospitality services to the natural resources industry in Canada, Australia and the U.S.
−Removed: Demand for our services can be attributed to two phases of our customers’ projects:
−Removed: (1) the development or construction phase;
−Removed: and (2) the operations or production phase.
Historically, initial demand for our hospitality services has been driven by our customers’ capital spending programs related to the construction and development of natural resource projects and associated infrastructure, as well as the exploration for oil and natural gas.
Long-term demand for our services has been driven by natural resource production, maintenance and operation of those facilities as well as expansion of those sites.
−Removed: In general, industry capital spending programs are based on the outlook for commodity prices, economic growth, global commodity supply/demand, estimates of resource production and the expectations of our customers' shareholders.
−Removed: As a result, demand for our hospitality services is largely sensitive to expected commodity prices, principally related to oil, met coal, LNG and iron ore, and the resultant impact of these commodity price expectations on customers’ spending.
−Removed: Other factors that can affect our business and financial results include the general global economic environment, including inflationary pressures, supply chain disruptions and labor shortages, and regulatory changes in Canada, Australia, the U.S.
−Removed: and other markets, including governmental measures introduced to fight climate change or to help slow the spread or mitigate the impact of COVID-19.
−Removed: Our business is predominantly located in northern Alberta, Canada;
−Removed: British Columbia, Canada;
−Removed: Queensland, Australia;
−Removed: and Western Australia.
−Removed: We derive most of our business from natural resource companies who are developing and producing oil sands, met coal, LNG and iron ore resources and, to a lesser extent, other hydrocarbon and mineral resources.
−Removed: Approximately 62% of our revenue is generated by our lodges in Canada and our villages in Australia.
−Removed: Where traditional accommodations and infrastructure are insufficient, inaccessible or cost ineffective, our lodge and village facilities provide comprehensive hospitality services similar to those found in an urban hotel.
−Removed: We typically contract our facilities to our customers on a fee-per-person-per-day basis that covers lodging and meals and is based on the duration of customer needs, which can range from several weeks to several years.
−Removed: The remainder of our revenue is generated by our hospitality services at customer-owned locations in Canada and Australia, mobile assets in Canada and our lodges in the U.S.
−Removed: Generally, our core Canadian oil sands and Australian mining customers make significant, upfront capital investments to develop their prospects, which have estimated reserve lives ranging from ten years to in excess of 30 years.
−Removed: Consequently, these investments are primarily dependent on those customers’ long-term views of commodity demand and prices.
−Removed: The spread of COVID-19 and the response thereto have negatively impacted the global economy.
−Removed: The actions taken by governments and the private-sector to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 and the risk of infection, including government-imposed or voluntary social distancing and quarantining, reduced travel and remote work policies, evolved with the introduction of vaccination efforts in 2021, and may continue to evolve as the surfacing of virus variants has added a degree of uncertainty to the continuing global impact.
−Removed: Since the COVID-19 pandemic began, we have been impacted by increased staff costs as a result of hospitality labor shortages in Australia.
−Removed: This labor shortage has been exacerbated by significantly reduced migration in and around Australia affecting labor availability, which has subsequently led to an increased reliance on more expensive temporary labor resources.
−Removed: We continue to monitor the COVID-19 pandemic to help ensure the health and well-being of our employees, guests and contractors.
−Removed: Most of our previously implemented measures have been revised to reflect improved conditions, and are currently being integrated into a more comprehensive communicable illness plan.
−Removed: In part due to the impact of COVID-19 on the global economy and governmental responses thereto, increasing inflationary pressures and supply chain disruptions are being experienced worldwide.
−Removed: Price increases resulting from inflation and supply chain concerns have, and are expected to continue to have, a negative impact on our labor and food costs, as well as consumable costs such as fuel.
−Removed: We are managing inflation risk with negotiated service scope changes and contractual protections.
−Removed: Global oil prices dropped to historically low levels in March and April 2020 due to severely reduced global oil demand, high global crude inventory levels, uncertainty around timing and slope of worldwide economic recovery after COVID-19 related economic shut-downs and effectiveness of production cuts by major oil producing countries, such as Saudi Arabia, Russia and the U.S.
−Removed: Since this trough in early 2020, global oil prices increased later in 2020 and throughout 2021 primarily due to improved global oil demand and lagging global oil supply due to oil production discipline from publicly traded oil producers and OPEC+ countries.
−Removed: These supply/demand dynamics continued in 2022 and have been exacerbated by the ongoing conflict between Russia/Ukraine and related sanctions on Russia, as well as actions taken by OPEC+ to adjust production levels, which decreased global fossil fuel supply even further.
−Removed: This led to a significant increase in global oil prices to above $100 per barrel.
−Removed: Several governments, including the U.S.
−Removed: government under the Biden administration, have released oil from the government controlled strategic reserves in an effort to stem high oil prices and the related impacts on higher heating fuels and gasoline.
−Removed: Alberta, Canada.
−Removed: In Canada, Western Canadian Select (WCS) crude is the benchmark price for our oil sands customers.
−Removed: Pricing for WCS is driven by several factors, including the underlying price for West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude, the availability of transportation infrastructure (consisting of pipelines and crude by railcar), refinery blending requirements and governmental regulation.
−Removed: Historically, WCS has traded at a discount to WTI, creating a “WCS Differential,” due to transportation costs and capacity restrictions to move Canadian heavy oil production to refineries, primarily along the U.S.
−Removed: The WCS Differential has varied depending on the extent of transportation capacity availability.
−Removed: Certain expansionary oil pipeline projects have the potential to both drive incremental demand for mobile assets and to improve take-away capacity for Canadian oil sands producers over the longer term.
−Removed: The Enbridge Line 3 replacement project was completed at the end of 2021 and the Trans Mountain Pipeline (TMX) is currently under construction and continues to progress towards completion.
−Removed: The Canadian federal government acquired the TMX pipeline in 2018, approved the expansion of the project and is currently working through a revised construction timeline to adjust for recent delays related to legal challenges, COVID-19, flooding along certain sections of the pipeline corridor and seasonal wildfires.
−Removed: As a result, the TMX pipeline construction has been delayed, and there is a risk that there could be future delays.
−Removed: Recent legal issues between the Canadian government and First Nation groups have been resolved for the time being and construction has resumed.
−Removed: WCS prices in the fourth quarter of 2022 averaged $54.72 per barrel compared to an average of $60.84 in the fourth quarter of 2021.
−Removed: The WCS Differential increased from $14.12 per barrel at the end of the fourth quarter of 2021 to $27.62 at the end of the fourth quarter of 2022.
−Removed: As of February 24, 2023, the WTI price was $76.32 and the WCS price was $60.10, resulting in a WCS Differential of $16.22.
−Removed: Together with the initial spread of COVID-19, depressed oil price levels of both WTI and WCS materially impacted 2020 maintenance and production spending and activity by Canadian operators and, therefore, demand for our hospitality services.
−Removed: Customers began restoring production in the fourth quarter of 2020, reaching pre-pandemic levels in 2022.
−Removed: Although oil prices reached multi-year highs in the first half of 2022 and fluctuated in the second half of 2022, there is continued uncertainty around commodity price levels, including the impact of COVID-19, inflationary pressures, actions taken by OPEC+ to adjust production levels, geopolitical events such as the ongoing Russia/Ukraine conflict, and regulatory implications on such prices, which could cause our Canadian oil sands and pipeline customers to reduce production, delay expansionary and maintenance spending and defer additional investments in their oil sands assets.
−Removed: We have agreed to not renew an expiring land lease associated with our McClelland Lake Lodge in Alberta, Canada, which currently expires in June 2023, to support our customer’s intent to mine the land where the lodge is currently located, ten years earlier than originally expected.
−Removed: In addition, our hospitality services contract at McClelland Lake Lodge expires in June 2023.
−Removed: Based on ongoing discussion with customers in the region, our current assessment is there are no commercially viable opportunities that support the reinstalling of these assets in a different location within the Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo.
−Removed: Accordingly, we intend to market these assets for new opportunities within Canada and the U.S.
−Removed: During such time, these assets will be stored in part or in whole at a nearby location.
−Removed: Based on our knowledge and understanding of the marketplace, we believe there is demand for these assets for sale or redeployment.
−Removed: However, should our marketing efforts fail to identify an economic alternative, other options will be considered.
−Removed: Revenues associated with the 2022 room commitments at our McClelland Lake Lodge were approximately C$60 million.
−Removed: We expect to have further clarity on potential sales or redeployment opportunities of these assets as we move through 2023.
−Removed: British Columbia, Canada.
−Removed: Our Sitka Lodge supports the LNG Canada project and related pipeline projects (see discussion below).
−Removed: From a macroeconomic standpoint, LNG demand continued to grow despite COVID-19, reinforcing the need for the global LNG industry to expand access to natural gas.
−Removed: Evolving government energy policies around the world have amplified support for cleaner energy supply, creating more opportunities for natural gas and LNG.
−Removed: The conflict between Russia/Ukraine has further highlighted the need for secure natural gas supply globally, particularly in Europe.
−Removed: Accordingly, additional investment in LNG supply will be needed to meet the resulting expected long-term LNG demand growth.
−Removed: Currently, Western Canada does not have any operational LNG export facilities.
−Removed: LNG Canada (LNGC), a joint venture among Shell Canada Energy, an affiliate of Shell plc (40 percent), and affiliates of PETRONAS, through its wholly-owned entity, North Montney LNG Limited Partnership (25 percent), PetroChina (15 percent), Mitsubishi Corporation (15 percent) and Korea Gas Corporation (5 percent), is currently constructing a liquefaction and export facility in Kitimat, British Columbia (Kitimat LNG Facility).
−Removed: British Columbia LNG activity and related pipeline projects are a material driver of activity for our Sitka Lodge, as well as for our mobile assets, which are contracted to serve several designated portions of the related pipeline construction activity.
−Removed: The actual timing of when revenue is realized from the Coastal GasLink pipeline (CGL) and Sitka Lodge contracts could be impacted by any delays in the construction of the Kitimat LNG Facility or the pipeline, such as protest blockades and COVID-19.
−Removed: Our current expectation is that our contracted commitments associated with the CGL pipeline project will be completed in 2023.
−Removed: Any new delays in facility or pipeline construction may result in extensions to these dates.
−Removed: In late March 2020, LNGC announced steps being taken to reduce the spread of COVID-19, including reduction of the workforce at the project site to essential personnel only.
−Removed: In late December 2020, British Columbia’s public health officer issued a health order limiting workforce size at all large industrial projects across the province, including LNGC.
−Removed: These actions resulted in reduced occupancy at our Sitka Lodge beginning in the second quarter of 2020.
−Removed: British Columbia's public health order was phased out in the second quarter of 2021.
−Removed: It was replaced with less restrictive requirements focused on monitoring, allowing workforces to return to their optimal sizes, which increased occupancy at our Sitka Lodge in the second half of 2021 and into 2022.
−Removed: In Australia, 84% of our rooms are located in the Bowen Basin of Queensland, Australia and primarily serve met coal mines in that region.
−Removed: Met coal pricing and production growth in the Bowen Basin region is predominantly influenced by the level of global steel production, which decreased by 4.3% during 2022 compared to 2021.
−Removed: The decrease was the result of weakness in the Chinese residential sector and slowing global growth due to inflationary pressures.
−Removed: As of February 24, 2023, met coal spot prices were $360 per tonne.
−Removed: Steel output is forecast to improve marginally through 2024, with large infrastructure rollouts in a number of major economies including the U.S.
−Removed: The Chinese placed an embargo on several Australian products, including coal, in the fall of 2020.
−Removed: During the embargo, Australian met coal producers found new markets, including India and Europe, for their premium product.
−Removed: This led to a rebalancing of the market globally, with China relying on domestic production along with increased met coal imports from the U.S., Canada and Mongolia.
−Removed: With the backdrop of continuing strong steel demand and met coal supply constraints, the spot price for met coal surged to record highs through the second half of 2021 into early 2022.
−Removed: The embargo was recently lifted during the first quarter of 2023.
−Removed: Since the historic highs in early 2022, prices have stabilized with weather-related supply interruptions in Australia offset by weakening steel demand.
−Removed: Analysts forecast met coal prices to face downward pressure in early 2023 but to moderate during the year with supply improvement and weaker demand impacting prices.
−Removed: Downward pressure on prices could accelerate in the short term if demand in China worsens.
−Removed: Civeo's activity in Western Australia is driven primarily by iron ore production, which is a key steel-making ingredient.
−Removed: Through the second half of 2021, with forced cuts in Chinese steel production, prices retreated from the peaks experienced in mid-2021.
−Removed: Iron ore prices remained stable through early 2022 and fluctuated in the second half of 2022, with prices recovering from a low of $78 per tonne to over $100 per tonne with renewed support in the Chinese property sector.
−Removed: With stronger supply and a slow recovery in Chinese construction, downside pressure on current prices remains.
−Removed: As of February 24, 2023, iron ore
−Removed: spot prices were $119.17 per tonne.
−Removed: Analysts anticipate that infrastructure-led construction activity in China and other large world economies will continue to stabilize prices at current levels, though residential activity in China remains subdued.
−Removed: Analysts forecast pricing through 2023 to remain between $90 and $110.
−Removed: In the last half of 2022, we sold both our wellsite services and our offshore businesses.
−Removed: Our remaining U.S.
−Removed: business supports completion activity in the Bakken and construction and turnaround work in the Louisiana industrial area.
−Removed: oil completion activity will continue to be impacted by oil prices, pipeline capacity, federal energy policies and availability of capital to support exploration and production completion plans.
+Added: In general, industry capital spending programs are based on the outlook for commodity prices, production costs, economic growth, global commodity supply/demand, estimates of resource production and the expectations of our customers' shareholders.
+Added: As a result, demand for our hospitality services is largely sensitive to expected commodity prices, principally related to oil, met coal, LNG and iron ore, and the resultant impact of these commodity price expectations on our customers’ spending.
+Added: Other factors that can affect our business and financial results include the general global economic environment, including inflationary pressures, supply chain disruptions and labor shortages, volatility affecting the banking system and financial markets, availability of capital to the natural resource industry and regulatory changes in Canada, Australia and other markets, including governmental measures introduced to fight climate change.
+Added: Commodity Prices
+Added: There is continued uncertainty around commodity price levels, including the impact of inflationary pressures, actions taken by Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries Plus (OPEC+) to adjust production levels, geopolitical events such as the ongoing Russia/Ukraine and Israel/Hamas conflicts and rising geopolitical risks in the Middle East, U.S.
+Added: oil production levels and regulatory implications on such prices.
+Added: In particular, these items could cause our Canadian oil sands and pipeline
+Added: customers to reduce production, delay expansionary and maintenance spending and defer additional investments in their oil sands assets.

+Added: oil production.
+Added: In an effort to support the price of oil amidst demand concerns, OPEC+ countries announced additional oil production cuts through the end of 2023.
+Added: These production cuts, coupled with the rising geopolitical risks in the Middle East, resulted in increased oil prices in the third quarter and early part of the fourth quarter of 2023, before reducing in the latter part of the fourth quarter back to levels consistent with the first six months of 2023.
+Added: In Canada, WCS crude is the benchmark price for our oil sands customers.
+Added: Pricing for WCS is driven by several factors, including the underlying price for WTI crude, the availability of transportation infrastructure (consisting of pipelines and crude by railcar), refinery blending requirements and governmental regulation.
+Added: Historically, WCS has traded at a discount to WTI, creating a “WCS Differential,” due to transportation costs and capacity restrictions to move Canadian heavy oil production to refineries, primarily along the U.S.

+Added: In Australia, 84% of our rooms are located in the Bowen Basin of Queensland, Australia and primarily serve met coal mines in that region.
+Added: Met coal pricing and production growth in the Bowen Basin region is predominantly influenced
+Added: by the level of global steel production, which decreased by 0.1% during 2023 compared to 2022.
+Added: The decrease year-over-year was the result of weaker production in December 2023 from China, offset by stronger production throughout 2023 from both Europe and Russia.
+Added: As of February 23, 2024, met coal spot prices were $311.40 per tonne.
+Added: Steel output is forecast to improve marginally through 2024, with large infrastructure rollouts in a number of major economies including the U.S.
+Added: Met coal prices remained over $200 per tonne during 2023, which supported existing producers, and also assisted new and expansion projects.
+Added: In the last quarter of 2023, met coal prices averaged over $330 per tonne which continues to provide a positive short-term outlook for producing projects, though future investment could be impacted by the increase in the Queensland royalty scheme introduced in 2022.
+Added: Analysts forecast prices to remain elevated in the near term but to fall below $300 per tonne in 2024 as supply side pressures are expected to ease and Chinese met coal imports fall following high restocking levels.

+Added: Analysts are forecasting 2024 prices to remain over $100 per tonne on average.
+Added: Inflationary Pressures.
+Added: During 2022 and 2023, inflationary pressures and supply chain disruptions have been, and continue to be, experienced worldwide.
+Added: Price increases resulting from inflation and supply chain concerns have, and are expected to continue to have, a negative impact on our labor and food costs, as well as consumable costs such as fuel.
+Added: We are managing inflation risk with negotiated service scope changes and contractual protections.
+Added: Labor Shortages.
+Added: In addition to the macro inflationary impacts on labor costs noted above, during the COVID-19 pandemic, we were, and continue to be, impacted by increased staff costs as a result of hospitality labor shortages in Australia as government-imposed and voluntary social distancing and quarantining impacted travel.
+Added: This labor shortage has been exacerbated by significantly reduced migration in and around Australia affecting labor availability, which has subsequently led to an increased reliance on more expensive temporary labor resources.

−Removed: We selected these valuation approaches because we believe the combination of these approaches and our best judgment regarding underlying assumptions and estimates provides us with the best estimate of fair value for each of our reporting units.
−Removed: We believe these valuation approaches are proven valuation techniques and methodologies for our industry and widely accepted by investors.
−Removed: value of each reporting unit would change if our assumptions under these valuation approaches, or relative weighting of the valuation approaches, were materially modified.
