Letter to Shareholders
Financial PerformanceIn 2010, our net profit grew by 23 per cent to a new high of $860 million. Excluding the one-off credit of $53 million arising from the settlement of the disputed foreign exchange transactions with Societe Generale in the third quarter of 2010, the Group’s net profit increased by 13 per cent to $807 million in 2010.
Group turnover in 2010, at $4,555 million, marked a decline of 20 per cent from $5,725 million in 2009. This was attributed mainly to lower progressive revenue recognition for rig building, ship conversion & offshore projects as well as lower variation order settlement.
Group operating profit increased 9 per cent to $943 million due to the resumption of margin recognition arising from the sale of the Gusto MSC CJ70 harsh-environment jack-up rig as well as the execution of repeat rig orders for customers during the year.
At pre-tax level, Group profit increased 19 per cent to surpass the $1 billion mark for the first time, at $1,078 million from $908 million in 2009. The increase was attributed to the higher profit margin and the receipt of settlement of thedisputed foreign exchange transactions with Societe Generale during the year.
The Group’s earnings per share rose by 22 per cent to 41.55 cents. The return on equity was at 38.4 per cent, while economic value-added attained a high of $740 million.
Foreign Exchange Transactions SettlementDuring the year, subsidiary Jurong Shipyard reached an agreement, made strictly on a commercial basis, with Societe Generale for a full and final amicable settlement of the disputed foreign exchange transactions. This settlement was also the last and final amicable settlement with all banks involved.Arising from the settlement, Societe Generale made a payment of US$40 million ($52.64 million) to Jurong Shipyard on the basis that there was no admission of liability by either party. This amount was credited to the consolidated income statement in 2010.
Non-controlling InterestOn 15 May 2010, Sembcorp Marine commenced proceedings in the High Court of Singapore against PPL Holdings and its wholly-owned subsidiary E-Interface Holdings to seek the transfer of the remaining 15 per cent share in PPL Shipyard. Pending the outcome of the Court’s decision, we have continued to consolidate the Group’s 85 per cent interest in PPL Shipyard and separately accounted for the 15 per cent as a “non-controlling interest”.
Sharing the exciting possibilities ahead for the Integrated New Yard.
Dear ShareholdersWe are happy to have delivered another year of record profits in 2010. This was achieved amid challenging economic conditions and mixed recovery rates in the global markets. Our focus on executing and delivering our projects on time or ahead of schedule while raising operational efficiency through innovation, production process improvements and productivity enhancement initiatives has contributed to this record performance.

Letter to Shareholders
Rewarding ShareholdersIn view of the record performance in 2010, the Board of Directors is recommending a final ordinary one-tier tax-exempt cash dividend of 6 cents per share and a special one-tier tax-exempt cash dividend of 25 cents per share, to reward shareholders for their continued interest and unwavering support of the Group amid the challenging economic environment during the past year. The total final and special one-tier tax-exempt cash dividend will be 31 cents per share for the financial year ended 31 December 2010.
Including the interim one-tier tax-exempt cash dividend of 5 cents per share paid on 31 August 2010, the total dividend for 2010 will be 36 cents per share, an increase of 140 per cent as compared with 15 cents per share paid for financial year 2009.
The proposed final and special cash dividend, if approved at the Annual General Meeting to be held on 20 April 2011, will be paid on 11 May 2011.
Review of Business Operations2010 had been a busy year for the Group with a total of fourteen deliveries, comprising seven jack-up rigs, three semi-submersible rigs, three floating production storage offloading (FPSO) units and one offshore platform project. Operating profit margin increased from 15.1 per cent in 2009 to 20.7 per cent in 2010 due mainly to operational efficiencies and project execution ahead of schedule.
Although the global economy was looking up, recovery remained uneven across different regions. Despite this, the Group was able to secure a total of $3.04 billion in new contract orders in 2010.
Business SegmentThe Group’s turnover for 2010 was $4,555 million. The rig building sector was the largest contributor, accounting for 67 per cent in total turnover, followed by ship conversion & offshore at 18 per cent, ship repair at 14 per cent and others at 1 per cent.

Rig Building The rig building sector contributed $3,048 million to total turnover in 2010, as compared with $3,635 million in 2009. The 16 per cent decline was due to lower contributions from jack-up rigs at $1,108 million, as compared with $2,127 million in 2009. Contributions from semi-submersible rigs registered an increase from $1,508 million to $1,940 million in 2010. Seven jack-up rigs were delivered in the year with only three units in work-in-progress stages, while three semi-submersible rigs were delivered in 2010 with six units in work-in-progress stages.
The third quarter of 2010 saw the resumption of margin recognition for the sale of a Gusto MSC CJ70 harsh-environment jack-up rig by Jurong Shipyard to a subsidiary of Seadrill. The rig was originally
contracted for construction by Petroprod, which later went into liquidation in 2009. Jurong Shipyard had terminated the contract with Petroprod when no further payments were received.
The last quarter of 2010 saw renewed interest in shallower waters and market demand for newer, safer and more efficient rigs. This had the effect of sparking off a strong pick-up in orders, with a total of eight high-specification jack-up rig orders worth a total of $2.0 billion, excluding a further ten units of options secured for these high-specification jack-up rigs.
Ship Conversion & OffshoreTurnover for the ship conversion & offshore sector, at $820 million, was 39 per cent lower as compared to the $1,343 million achieved in 2009. This was

attributed mainly to timing issues as there was no major initial revenue recognition during the year although there were four successful project deliveries with five other projects still in various work-in-progress stages.
Ship conversion & offshore projects secured during 2010 and 2011 to-date stood at $1,229 million.These included four FPSO conversion projects, one accommodation topside project secured in 2010 and one dynamically positioned blue-water research vessel secured in 2011.
Ship RepairThe ship repair sector registered a decline of 9 per cent, at $646 million, as compared with $706 million in 2009. The decline was due to timing in recognition of some major ship repair contracts. A total of 282 vessels were repaired within the year, with an average value per vessel of $2.29 million. Tankers accounted for 29 per cent of total repair, followed by drillship and FPSO upgrading at 24 per cent, passenger ships at 9 per cent, LNG gas tankers at 9 per cent, bulkers at 7 per cent, containerships at 6 per cent and other vessels at 16 per cent. Alliance/FCC partners and regular customers, who continued to support the Group with a steady base-load, accounted for 85 per cent of our ship repair revenue in 2010.
Strengthening Core Competencies and CapabilitiesTo sharpen our competitive edge for sustainable growth of our business and to serve our customers better, we continued to build on our core competencies and capabilities, investing in research and people development as well as maintaining emphasis on raising health, safety and environment standards. We maintained our ability to execute our projects on time and ahead of schedule, building upon our solid track record. At the same time, we continued to offer our customers a full spectrum of product lines, encompassing shallow-water to deepwater drilling rigs, shallow-water production platforms and deepwater production units.
During the year, we launched our proprietary Pacific Class 400 jack-up design, an extension of our Pacific Class 375 design. This new rig design represented the latest generation of high-specification jack-up drilling rigs with greater capacities and capabilities than current conventional units. It was designed to operate in waters of 400 feet and drill to depths of 30,000 feet with improved drilling efficiencies and off-line pipe handling simultaneous operations support. It could also accommodate 150 persons, which compared favourably to the Pacific Class 375 design which could house 120 persons. To-date, four jack-up

rigs were secured based on this Pacific Class 400 design with options for an additional two units.
In yet another demonstration of partnership with our customers, we jointly developed the JU3000N jack-up design, suitable for operations in many challenging environments, including high-temperature areas such as the Middle East and the harsh North Sea region. The JU3000N was the brainchild of Jurong Shipyard and Noble, working in close partnership with designer Friede & Goldman to create an enlarged hull that would offer more operational benefits. These included ergonomic and efficient accommodation layout, increased deck space and strategic placement of equipment for safe and efficient operations. Two jack-up rigs were secured based on this JU3000N design with options for an additional four units.
For the deepwater drilling market, the Group offered its clients alternative designs in addition to the eight units of Friede & Goldman Ex-D design deepwater semi-submersible rigs that Jurong Shipyard had successfully delivered to-date. As a testament of its versatility and flexibility in rig construction, the Group successfully built a total of four ultra-deepwater semi-submersible rigs based on the Moss Maritime ultra-deepwater design. Two units of these had been delivered. Working in close collaboration with a leading consultant, the Group also developed the exclusive Espadon Jurong drillship design to meet the industry’s most stringent operating requirements in deepwater drilling.
Upholding health, safety, security and the environment – a core value of the Group – remained a key priority with the heightening of safety standards to ensure a safe and healthy workplace for employees, contractors and stakeholders. Recognising that people are the DNA of the Group, we also continued to nurture their talents and capabilities to boost the Group’s competitiveness and business success.
In active corporate citizenry, Sembcorp Marine remained committed to giving back to the community by supporting a host of initiatives in education, community development, national unity, industry outreach and the arts as well as embracing eco-friendly practices at the workplace to build a greener future.
Strategic Positioning for Sustainable GrowthIn November 2009, Sembcorp Marine announced its plan to develop a modern and work-efficient
Integrated New Yard facility to position the Group for long-term sustainable growth in its ship repair, ship conversion & offshore activities.
A ground-breaking ceremony for the first phase of the facility was held in June 2010. This phase would comprise four very large crude carrier (VLCC) drydocks with a total dock capacity of 1,550,000 dwt and quays measuring 3,408 metres in length. Construction of the Integrated New Yard facility progressed on schedule, with two drydocks, measuring 350 metres by 66 metres and 410 metres by 66 metres, related quays, workshops and dormitory on track for operations in the second half of 2012. By the second half of 2013, the remaining two docks of 350 metres by 66 metres and 360 metres by 89 metres, quays, workshops and offices would be fully operational.
In Brazil, we announced our plans to build a new shipyard in the Municipal of Aracruz, located in the state of Espirito Santo to cater directly to one

Letter to Shareholders
of the world’s fastest growing offshore oil and gas exploration and production markets. With our track record and operating experience in Brazil, we are confident that the new shipyard will be well-positioned to meet the needs of the vibrant market for drilling rig construction, FPSO integration, topsides module fabrication, as well as ship and rig repairs. The shipyard, when fully operational, would also provide ample employment and training opportunities for the local workforce in Espirito Santo.
Outlook and ProspectsThe Group has a net order book of $4.8 billion, with completion and deliveries stretching till the second quarter of 2013.
Although global recovery has improved in the past year, recent events in the Middle East, North Africa and Japan may create uncertainties in the world economy which may have impact on businesses.
For the oil and gas industry, the fundamentals remain intact with oil prices expected to sustain above US$80 per barrel. Exploration and production spending budgets continue to show positive development as oil companies report their intention to increase spending in exploration and production further in 2011.
Given the highly skewed ageing rig fleet and the bifurcation in the jack-up market with oil companies increasingly focused on new, safer and efficient rigs, demand for premium and high-specification rigs is expected to remain strong. The Group has since the fourth quarter of 2010 secured eight firm orders of jack-up rigs amounting to $2.0 billion with options for another ten units.
The Group is also mindful that since the
oil spill in 2010, activities in the Gulf of Mexico have slowed pending finalisation of new deepwater drilling regulations. The recent issue of the first deepwater drilling permit in the United States’ portion of the Gulf could have the effect of spurring optimism of deepwater activity returning to the Gulf. Nevertheless, deepwater drilling activities for the rest of the world are expected to increase. This optimism is reflected in the number of newbuild orders, in particular for drillships, by drilling contractors since the last quarter of 2010. Sembcorp Marine, with its proven track record in deepwater rigs, will be well-positioned to capture new orders and meet the industry’s most stringent operating requirements.
Although overall enquiries have improved, competition remains keen.
The ship repair market continues to improve with continued demand for bigger docks. The Group has secured several long-term contracts from its customers, in particular in the niche segments for the repair, upgrading and life extension of LNG carriers and passenger and cruise vessels. These long-term customers will continue to provide a stable base-load for the Group’s ship repair sector.
Board & ManagementMr Joseph Kwok Sin Kin, who was appointed a director of Sembcorp Marine since 30 June 2006, retired by rotation pursuant to Article 91 of the

Its corporate governance principles reflect its strong belief in protecting and enhancing shareholder value in a sustainable way. The Group firmly believes that the professionalism, integrity and commitment of its Board members and employees, supported by a sound system of policies, practices and internal controls are the cornerstones that will enable it to preserve long-term value and returns for its shareholders.Sembcorp Marine adopts corporate governance practices which are in conformity with the Code of Corporate Governance 2005 (the “Code”). This report describes Sembcorp Marine’s corporate governance practices with specific reference to the principles and guidelines of the Code as required under the Listing Manual of the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited.
Board of DirectorsEffective Board to Lead and Effect ControlsPrinciple 1: Every company should be headed by an effective Board to lead and control the company. The Board is collectively responsible for the success of the company. The Board works with the management to achieve this and the management remains accountable to the Board.
The Board’s responsibility is to oversee the business, affairs and performance of the Sembcorp Marine Group in the best interests of its shareholders. The Board focuses its activities on the Group’s key requirements such as:• Providing entrepreneurial leadership and directions of the Group• Ensuring prudent and effective controls• Setting values and standards to ensure obligations to shareholders are met• Overseeing the proper conduct of the Group’s business
Board of Directors and management at the 47th Annual General Meeting.
From Vision to Reality 4 Sembcorp Marine Annual Report 2010
21
To ensure efficient discharge of its responsibilities and to provide independent oversight of the management, the Board has established a number of Board committees, including the Audit Committee, Executive Resource & Compensation Committee, Nominating Committee, Board Risk Committee and the Executive Committee. These committees comprise mostly independent and/or non-executive directors. Other ad-hoc committees can be formed from time to time to look into specific areas when the need arises such as the Special Committee established in 2007.
Membership in the different committees is carefully managed to ensure that there is equitable distribution of responsibilities among Board members, to maximise the effectiveness of the Board and foster active participation and contribution. Diversity of experiences and appropriate skills are also considered.
In addition, the Board has adopted a set of internal controls which sets out approval limits for transactions, procurement of goods and services, capital expenditure, investments and divestments, bank borrowings and management of foreign exchange. Approval sub-limits are also provided at management levels to facilitate operational efficiency.
Strong and Independent Board Exercising Objective Judgment Principle 2: There should be a strong and independent element on the Board, which is able to exercise objective judgment on corporate affairs independently, in particular, from management. No individual or small group of individuals should be allowed to dominate the Board’s decision making.
Chaired by Mr Goh Geok Ling, the Board has ten directors of whom nine are non-executive directors, and four are independent directors. Mr Wong Weng Sun who was appointed the President & CEO and Director of Sembcorp Marine on 1 May 2009, is the executive director.
The Board is composed of a majority of non-executive directors, four of whom are independent directors, independent of management and independent in terms of character and judgment. The criterion of independence is based on the definition given by the Code, which stipulates that an independent director is one who has no relationship with the Company, its related companies or its officers that could interfere or be reasonably perceived to interfere with the exercise of the directors’ independent business judgment with a view to decide in the best interests of the Company in the conduct of the Company’s affairs.

This enables the management to benefit from an external and objective perspective on issues that are brought before the Board.
To facilitate a more effective check on management, the non-executive directors have also met without the presence of management to discuss the performance of management.
The Nominating Committee considers Mr Ajaib Haridass, a non-executive director, as an independent director, although he is a partner in a law firm rendering professional services to the Group. Notwithstanding this, the Nominating Committee assesses him to be independent due to his manifest ability to exercise strong independent judgment in his deliberations and act in the best interests of the Company, and that the nature and scope of the business relationships are not significant in the context of the Group’s earnings or operations, and therefore do not undermine his independence.
The directors consider that the Board is of the appropriate size and with the right mix of skills and experience given the size of Sembcorp Marine. The Board members comprise business leaders, current or retired CEOs, bankers, professionals with financial background and a practising lawyer. Profiles of the Board’s directors are found on pages 12 to 17 of this Annual Report.
Board CommitteesSembcorp Marine has six Board committees: • Audit Committee• Executive Resource & Compensation Committee• Nominating Committee• Board Risk Committee• Special Committee• Executive Committee
The Audit CommitteePrinciple 11: The Board should establish an Audit Committee with written terms of reference which clearly set out its authority and duties.
The Audit Committee (AC) currently comprises two independent directors, Mr Lim Ah Doo as Chairman of the AC and Mr Ron Foo Siang Guan as member, and one non-independent director, Mr Richard Hale, OBE as member.
The main responsibility of the AC is to review the Group’s general policies and control procedures relating to financial statements and reporting, internal control systems, interested person transactions as well as any matters or issues that affect the performance of the Group. These reviews are done with the external auditors, internal auditors and the management. The AC reviews the quarterly, half-yearly and annual results announcements in addition

to the financial statements at Group and Company levels before they are submitted to the Board for approval. The AC also recommends the appointment of the external auditors.
In its role, the AC assists the Board of Directors in fulfilling its fiduciary responsibilities relating to corporate accounting and reporting practices of the Group, and in respect of interested person transactions. Its responsibility is to act in the interest of the shareholders as a whole. The AC meets with the external and internal auditors, without the presence of the management, at least once a year to review the cooperation and assistance given by the management to its members.
The AC has reviewed the non-audit services provided by its external auditors to the Group, and is satisfied that the provision of non-audit services by the external auditors did not impair their independence as external auditors.
The Executive Resource & Compensation CommitteeThe Company’s Executive Resource & Compensation Committee (ERCC) at the date of this report comprisesthree directors, namely Mr Goh Geok Ling as ERCC Chairman, Mr Tang Kin Fei and Mr Tan Pheng Hock. Although the ERCC does not comprise a majority of independent directors within the definition of the Code, all its members are non-executive and independent of management of the Company with a clear separation of their role from management in deliberations of the ERCC.
Notwithstanding that the ERCC Chairman is regarded as non-independent with reference to the definition of “independence” under the Code, given his directorship on the board of Sembcorp Industries Ltd, the Board believes that the ERCC Chairman’s ability to exercise strong independent judgment in his deliberations and to act in the best interest of the Company is not compromised as his role in Sembcorp Industries board is non-executive in nature and does not entail involvement in the day-to-day conduct of Sembcorp Industries’ business.
The primary purpose of the ERCC is to support and advise the Company on remuneration matters and leadership development by:
• Overseeing development of leadership and management talent
• Ensuring that the Group has appropriate remuneration policies
• Designing compensation packages with focus on long term shareholders’ returns
The ERCC reviews and approves remuneration and promotion of key executives and decides on issues pertaining to their development and succession. It also establishes guidelines on share plans and other long-term incentives plans and approves the grant of such incentives to key executives. The underlying philosophy is to motivate executives to maximise operating and financial performance and shareholders’ value.
In addition, the ERCC also reviews the remuneration of non-executive directors and executive director and senior executives, as well as major human resource management and compensation policies and practices for the rest of the Group.
On an annual basis, a comprehensive talent management programme and the succession plans were presented to the ERCC for review. The ERCC reviews the succession plans for key and critical positions to align the business goals and the Group’s human capital needs. This enables the Company to identify the talent pool and allow focus and devotion of time and resources to leverage the full value and potential of identified successors.
The ERCC currently involves and consults with human resource and compensation consultants to ensure inclusiveness in its deliberations and decisions and to keep in line with pay and employment conditions within the industry and in comparable companies.
The President & CEO is not present during the discussions relating to his own compensation, terms and conditions of service, and the review of his performance.
No ERCC member or any director is involved in deliberations on any remuneration, compensation, options or any form of benefits to be granted to himself. Hence, the Board believes the ability of the ERCC to exercise considered judgment in its deliberations and act in the best interest of the Company.
24
Nominating Committee Mr Tan Pheng Hock, an independent director and an existing Nominating Committee (NC) member was appointed as NC Chairman in place of Mr Joseph Kwok Sin Kin who retired as Director at the last Annual General Meeting on 20 April 2010. On the same day, Mr Tang Kin Fei was made a member of the NC. The Company’s NC at the date of this report comprises Mr Tan Pheng Hock, Mr Tang Kin Fei and Mr Goh Geok Ling.
Although the NC does not comprise a majority of independent directors within the definition of the Code, the Chairman is independent, and all members of the NC are non-executive and independent of management of the Company. The Board is of the view that the NC is able to exercise strong independent judgment in their deliberations in the interest of the Company.
The primary purpose of the NC is to support and advise Sembcorp Marine, its unlisted subsidiaries and, where applicable, unlisted associated companies by nominating suitable candidates who are best able to discharge their responsibilities as directors. This means evaluating the balance of skills, knowledge and experience of these boards and assessing the candidates for their regard for the law and the high standards of governance practised by the Group. Appointments to these boards are made on merit and against objective criteria. The NC ensures that appointees have enough time available to devote to their directorship roles. The independence of each director is reviewed annually by the NC.
Board Risk CommitteeThe Board Risk Committee (BRC) was formed in April 2005 with written terms of reference, stating clearly its mandate to oversee the Group’s risk management framework which comprises systems of internal controls and risk management policies, guidelines, procedures, processes and limits.
At present, the BRC comprises four members, namely Mr Ajaib Haridass as Chairman, Mr Tang Kin Fei, Mr Richard Hale, OBE and Mr Ron Foo Siang Guan.
The BRC’s main responsibility is to assist the Board of Directors to review the adequacy and effectiveness of the Group’s risk management philosophy, strategies, plans, policies and guidelines; Group-wide risk
management systems, processes controls and procedures; and the Group’s risk portfolio and risk assessment including the treatment of identified key risks.
Special CommitteeThe Special Committee (SC) was formed on 22 October 2007 in response to the discovery of the unauthorised foreign exchange transactions (“Unauthorised Transactions”) undertaken by the former Director, Group Finance of Sembcorp Marine. Its primary role was to assist the Board in the investigations and to deal with issues and legal proceedings arising out of these Unauthorised Transactions.
The SC is currently comprised of four members: Mr Ron Foo Siang Guan as Chairman, Mr Ajaib Haridass, Mr Tang Kin Fei and Mdm Ngiam Joke Mui as members.
Executive CommitteeThe Executive Committee (EXCO) was formed on 7 May 2008 to assist the Board in developing the overall strategy for the Group and supervises, on behalf of the Board, the management of the Group’s business and affairs.
The EXCO comprises four members: Mr Goh Geok Ling as Chairman, Mr Wong Weng Sun, Mr Ajaib Haridass and Mr Tang Kin Fei as members.
Chairman and Chief Executive OfficerPrinciple 3: There should be clear division of responsibilities at the top of the company – the working of the Board and the executive responsibility of the company’s business – which will ensure a balance of power and authority, such that no one individual represents a considerable concentration of power.
There is a clear separation of the roles and responsibilities between the Chairman and the President & CEO. The President & CEO is not related to the Chairman.
The Chairman, who is non-executive, takes a leading role in Sembcorp Marine Group’s drive to achieve and maintain a high standard of corporate governance with the full support of the directors and the management.

He is responsible for the leadership of the Board, setting its agenda and ensuring its effectiveness in all aspects of its work. He acts independently in the best interests of the Group and shareholders. The Chairman facilitates the contribution of non-executive directors in particular and ensures constructive relations between executive and non-executive directors. He also ensures that the members of the Board work together with the management in constructive debate on various matters, including strategic and operational issues. Meanwhile, the President & CEO is charged with the executive responsibility of running the Group’s business.
Formal Appointment and Re-Election of DirectorsPrinciple 4: There should be a formal and transparent process for the appointment of new directors to the Board.
The Board does not believe it is possible to compile a list of criteria which are appropriate to characterise, in all circumstances, whether a non-executive director is independent. It is the approach and attitude of each non-executive director which is important. The Board aims for diversity of knowledge and experience among its members in relation to the various businesses of the Group and the international nature of the Group.
The Board, through the delegation of its authority to the NC, has used its best efforts to ensure that directors appointed to the Board possess the background, experience and knowledge in technology, business, finance and management skills critical to the Group’s businesses and that each director brings to the Board an independent and objective perspective to enable balanced and well-considered decisions to be made.
Sembcorp Marine believes that all directors should retire and offer themselves for re-election at regular intervals, subject to continued satisfactory performance. The President & CEO, while also a board member, is also required to retire and offer himself for re-election. As nomination and election of board members is the prerogative and proper right of all shareholders, this ensures the planned and progressive renewal of the Board.
The Company’s Articles of Association requires one-third of directors to retire and subject themselves to re-election by shareholders at every Annual General Meeting (AGM). In other words, no director stays in office for more than three years without being re-elected by shareholders. At the forthcoming AGM, Mr Tang Kin Fei, Mr Tan Pheng Hock and Mr Ajaib Haridass will retire by rotation pursuant to the one-third rotation rule.
In addition, any newly-appointed director will submit himself for retirement and election at the AGM immediately following his appointment. Thereafter, he is subject to the one-third rotation rule.
Further, pursuant to the Companies Act, directors who are over the age of 70 would vacate their offices at the conclusion of every AGM, and be subject to re-appointment. Mr Tan Kwi Kin and Mr Richard Hale will vacate their offices pursuant to Section 153(6) of the Companies Act.
Board Performance and Conduct of its Affairs Principle 5: There should be a formal assessment of the effectiveness of the Board as a whole and the contribution by each director to the effectiveness of the Board.
The Sembcorp Marine Group believes that active participation and valuable contributions are essential to the overall effectiveness of the Board. Newly-appointed directors are given briefings by the
Chairman of Sembcorp Marine Mr Goh Geok Ling interacting with shareholders at the AGM.

management on the Group’s business activities, the financial performance of the Group and its subsidiaries and the Group’s governance policies and practices. Facility visits to the premises are also arranged to enable them to acquire an understanding of the Group, its business activities and its strategic directions. Existing directors are also invited to such facility visits and orientation programmes.
Changes to regulations and accounting standards are monitored closely by the management. To keep pace with regulatory changes, which have an important bearing on the Group’s or directors’ disclosure obligations, the directors are briefed during Board meetings or at specially-convened sessions, including training sessions and seminars conducted by external professionals. Where necessary, the Group also sponsors its directors to training sessions, courses and seminars on new developments or changes in laws, regulations and accounting standards, which are of relevance to the Group.
Informal reviews of the Board composition and performance are undertaken on a continual basis by the NC with inputs from the other Board members and the President & CEO to ensure strong, independent and sound leadership for the continued success of the Group’s business. In addition, to enhance Sembcorp Marine’s corporate governance practice, a yearly exercise was introduced to obtain feedback from each Director on the effectiveness of the Board as a whole. Directors are required to complete a questionnaire which includes factors such as the size and composition of the Board, the Board’s access to information, Board processes and accountability as well as Board performance in relation to communication with senior management. Feedback from the Directors would be collated for discussion and used to highlight areas of strengths and weaknesses for future development of the Board and its committees as well as to further improve performance.
The NC feels that the financial indicators set out in the Code as guides for evaluation of directors are more for the measurement of management’s performance and thus, less applicable to directors. The NC recognises the contribution of directors who, over time, have developed deep insights into the Group’s businesses and would exercise its discretion to retain the services of such directors.
Full Access to Information and Resources Principle 6: In order to fulfil their responsibilities, Board members should be provided with complete, adequate and timely information prior to board meetings and on an on-going basis.
Directors at Sembcorp Marine have access to complete, adequate and timely information and resources. As a general rule, board papers are sent to directors at least three days before a board meeting so that they have the relevant information for consideration and deliberation at the meeting. Managers who can provide additional insight into the matters at hand would be present at the relevant time during the Board meetings.
The management further provides monthly management and other financial statements to the Board on business issues that require the Board’s decision in addition to ongoing reports relating to the Group’s operational and financial performance. Where a physical board meeting is not possible, timely communication with members of the Board is effected through electronic means which include electronic mail and teleconferencing. Alternatively, the management will arrange to meet and brief each director personally before seeking the Board’s approval.
The Board has separate and independent access to the President & CEO, members of senior management and the Company Secretaries at all times. Where necessary, independent professional advice and consultations will be made available to directors to ensure that full information and advice are available before important decisions are made by the Board. All issues are actively debated by the Board and properly recorded.
The Company Secretaries assist the Chairman by preparing meeting agenda, attending, preparing minutes of board proceedings and ensuring good information flows within the Board and its committees. They assist the Board on compliance with the Company’s Memorandum and Articles of Association, laws and regulations, including requirements of the Companies Act, Securities and Futures Act, the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited (SGX-ST), the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority and shareholders. The Company Secretaries assist the Board to upkeep and implement good corporate governance and best practices across the Group.

Competitive Board Remuneration Principle 7: There should be a formal and transparent procedure for developing policy on executive remuneration and for fixing the remuneration packages of individual directors. No director should be involved in deciding his own remuneration.
Sembcorp Marine believes that the remuneration of its directors is adequate and competitive, in line with market norms. The fee structure for the directors had been revised by the Board in 2006 after benchmarking the directors’ fees against those in the public and private sectors.
The President & CEO, as Executive Director, does not receive any director’s fees. As a lead member of the management, he draws a compensation consisting of a salary, allowances, bonuses, share-based incentives conditional upon meeting certain performance targets (details are available on page 196 of the Annual Report). Details on the share-based incentives and its fair value are available on pages 173 to 178 and page 180 of the Annual Report, respectively.
Non-executive directors have remuneration packages that consist of a directors’ fee component according to Sembcorp Marine’s Directors’ Fee Policy, an attendance fee component and a share-based incentives component according to the Company’s Employee Share Plan. Sembcorp Marine does not have a retirement plan for non-executive directors. The Directors’ Fee Policy is based on a scale of fees divided into basic retainer fees as director and additional fees for attendance and service on Board committees (as set out in the table herein). Details on share options granted and its fair value are available on pages 173 to 178 and page 180 of the Annual Report, respectively.
The basis of allocation of the share-based incentives takes into account a director’s contributions and additional responsibilities at Board committees. The report on directors’ remuneration is found on page 196 of the Annual Report.
The Directors’ fee for 2010 is $1,170,625.00 which is derived from the following guidelines approved and adopted by the Board since Year 2007:
The detailed breakdown of Directors’ remuneration is found on page 196 of the Annual Report.
Competitive Reward System and Disclosure on Remuneration Principle 8: The level of remuneration should be appropriate to attract, retain and motivate the directors needed to run the company successfully but companies should avoid paying more than is necessary for this purpose. A significant proportion of executive directors’ remuneration should be structured so as to link rewards to corporate and individual performance.
Principle 9: Each company should provide clear disclosure of its remuneration policy, level and mix of remuneration, and the procedure for setting remuneration in the company’s annual report.

Sembcorp Marine adopts a competitive remuneration and reward system that ensures good performance and retention of required talents and key executives. The Company’s remuneration and rewards system is anchored on individual performance, performance of the Group and its business units.
The incentive compensation plan for key executives is tied to the creation of Economic Value Added (EVA), as well as the attainment of individual performance goals. An individual’s incentive compensation is linked to the EVA created by Sembcorp Marine Group and its subsidiaries. A “bonus bank” is used to hold incentive compensation credited in any year. Typically, one-third of the available balance is paid out in cash each year, with the balance being carried forward to the following year. The balances carried forward may be reduced or increased in future, based on the yearly EVA performance of the Group and its subsidiaries.
Key executives are also rewarded based on actual performance relative to pre-agreed performance targets, which include financial and non-financial performance indicators such as EVA, total shareholder return as well as promoting and maintaining health, safety and environment issues. The Board believes that the current reward systems are in line with market norms and formulated to motivate executives to give their best to the Group. Rewards include long-term share-based incentives, which would further ensure the retention of the most talented and high performing executives in the Group. In view of the evolving practices at major public listed companies and to enhance linkages between employee performance and long-term shareholder value creation, a review of the Group’s share-based incentives was carried out in 2005.
The Company ceased to grant new share options since 2007. Instead, employees were awarded restricted shares under the restricted share plan. For further details on the share-based incentives and performance targets, please refer to pages 173 to 178 of this Report.
With respect to executive remuneration, the Board has decided not to prepare a separate remuneration report as most of the information is found in the directors’ report. This Annual Report has indicated where the information required to be disclosed can be found.
Key executives include the Managing Directors of Sembawang Shipyard Pte Ltd, SMOE Pte Ltd and PPL Shipyard Pte Ltd, the Executive Director of Jurong SML Pte Ltd and the Chief Financial Officer of Sembcorp Marine.
The detailed breakdown of the key executives’ remuneration is found on page 196 of the Annual Report.
Internal Controls and Risk Management Principle 12: The Board should ensure that the management maintains a sound system of internal controls to safeguard the shareholders’ investments and the company’s assets.
The Board delegates its oversight responsibility for internal controls and risk management to the BRC and AC which, in close co-operation and co-ordination, ensures effectiveness and adequacy of the system set out to meet the requirements of Principle 12. This system of internal controls comprises the Group’s financial, operational and compliance controls, and risk management policies and processes.
The effectiveness of the Group’s internal controls is reviewed annually via the Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) programme and involves management, the Strategic Business Units (SBUs), Group Risk Management, Group Internal Audit, relevant personnel from the corporate office and external consultants, where required.
The Group ERM programme is currently into its 8th year since its inception in 2004. The programme is regularly reviewed, updated and improved to ensure that it remains capable of identifying, assessing and managing key risks faced by the Group as it continues to seek sustainable growth in today’s uncertain and volatile business environment.
For more information on the Group’s ERM programme, please refer to pages 32 to 35.

Whistle-Blowing PolicyThe Group has adopted a constructive whistle-blowing culture to detect and deter wrongdoing in preparing and implementing accurate and complete financial policies, reports and materials as well as the internal controls essential to support its financial and accounting systems and operations.
Demonstrating its pledge to good corporate governance, the Group provides an avenue for employees or any person to report any possible improprieties in matters of financial reporting or other matters that they may encounter to the AC or any other committees established by the AC for such purposes without fear of reprisal. The AC provides an oversight role in ensuring that the appropriate actions (including independent investigations) are undertaken to address any whistle-blow complaints.
The establishment of the whistle-blowing structure also augments the Group’s ability to detect potential fraud, providing another level of comfort and assurance to investors.
Independent Internal Audit FunctionPrinciple 13: The company should establish an internal audit function that is independent of the activities it audits.
Sembcorp Marine’s internal audit function is supported by the Internal Audit Department which reports on audit matters directly to the AC Chairman and administratively to the President & CEO. This department plans its internal audit schedules in consultation with, but independent of, the management. Its plan is submitted to the AC for approval at the beginning of each year.
To ensure that internal audit continues to be performed by competent professionals, the Internal Audit Department continues to recruit and employ suitably qualified staff. The internal audit practices of the Department are established with reference to the standards set by the Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA). Continual efforts are being made to align the Department’s practices with the mandatory and strongly recommended guidance set forth in the International Professional Practices Framework of the IIA. A quality assurance and improvement programme has also been established, comprising both internal and external assessments of the internal audit function and an ongoing process to improve its practices.

Communication with ShareholdersPrinciple 10: The Board should present a balanced and understandable assessment of the company’s performance, position and prospects.
Principle 14: Companies should engage in regular, effective and fair communication with shareholders.
Sembcorp Marine strives to provide fair and accurate communication with shareholders on its affairs on an ongoing basis through its comprehensive investor relations (IR) programme. Sembcorp Marine’s shareholders are entitled to regular, timely and comprehensive reports on financial information, material developments as well as an understanding of business directions and prospects.
The Board provides shareholders with an assessment of the Group’s performance, position and prospects on a quarterly basis via quarterly announcements of results and timely announcements of significant transactions and developments as required by the SGX-ST. All price-sensitive information on Sembcorp Marine is disseminated to its shareholders via the SGXNET so as to ensure that all shareholders have access to material information at the same time.
Financial and other performance information of the Group as a whole as well as by business segments are given at the release of quarterly results. This allows shareholders to gain better insight into the earning drivers within Sembcorp Marine.
During the release of earnings results, the announcement is first released by SGXNET onto the SGX-ST website. The management team then holds a briefing or teleconference for the media and analysts. All materials used at the briefing are made available on SGXNET and on the Group’s corporate website at www.sembcorpmarine.com.sg. Following any release of earnings or price-sensitive developments, investor relations personnel are available by email or telephone to answer questions from shareholders and the media as long as the information requested does not conflict with the SGX-ST’s rules of fair disclosure.
Apart from the regular meetings, email communicationand teleconferences with investors and analysts, the management team also travels regularly to attend overseas road shows and conferences to reach out to institutional investors.

Greater Shareholder Participation at General Meetings Principle 15: Companies should encourage greater shareholder participation at AGMs, and allow shareholders the opportunity to communicate their views on various matters affecting the company.
Sembcorp Marine recognises that good corporate governance requires active participation of shareholders in the decision-making at the general meetings of shareholders and encourages such participation.
Information on meetings of shareholders are made through notices published in the newspaper and reports or circulars sent to all shareholders. All registered shareholders are invited to participate in shareholders’ meetings. If they do not wish to attend in person, they can issue instructions to accept, reject or abstain on each individual item on the meeting agenda by giving instructions to their proxy. He or she is allowed to appoint up to two proxies to vote on his or her behalf at the meeting through proxy forms sent in advance.
Sembcorp Marine also allows CPF Investors to attend General Meetings as observers. The Chairman, President & CEO, Chairman of the AC as well as other directors will be present together with the Chief Financial Officer, the Company Secretaries and external auditors to answer questions raised by shareholders. Minutes of shareholders’ meetings are available on request by registered shareholders. Sembcorp Marine ensures that there are separate resolutions at general meetings on each substantially separate issue and avoids “bundling” separate resolutions.
To facilitate attendance of shareholders at the Annual General Meeting and Extraordinary General Meeting, Sembcorp Marine arranged for buses to transport shareholders from convenient MRT stations to its registered office at 29 Tanjong Kling Road. The Group has always preferred holding the meetings at its registered office to offer shareholders the opportunity to visit the shipyard and acquaint themselves with the shipyard operations besides the opportunity to interact with the Chairman, Board of Directors and senior management of the Group. About 200 shareholders attended the AGM and EGM held on 20 April 2010.
For further details on Sembcorp Marine’s communications with its shareholders, refer to the “Investor Relations” section of the Annual Report.
Dealings in SecuritiesSembcorp Marine has adopted a Code of Compliance on Dealing in Securities, which prohibits dealings in the Company’s securities by its officers during the period commencing one month prior to the announcement of its full-year results and two weeks prior to the quarterly results. Directors and executives are also expected to observe insider trading laws at all times even when dealing in securities within the permitted trading period.
Interested Person Transactions (“IPT”)Shareholders have adopted an IPT mandate relating to interested person transactions of the Group. The IPT mandate sets out the levels and procedures to obtain approval for such transactions. Information regarding the mandate is available on the corporate website at www.sembcorpmarine.com.sg. All SBUs are required to be familiar with the IPT mandate and report any such transactions to the finance department. The finance department keeps a register of Sembcorp Marine’s interested person transactions. Information on interested person transactions for 2010 is found on page 197.

Risk Management
Sembcorp Marine adopts an integrated enterprise risk management (ERM) framework which comprises systems of internal controls and risk management policies, guidelines, procedures, processes and limits. The Group’s Directors and management staff are actively involved in various risk committees to set the direction and oversight for risk management in the Group.
Risk Management StructureThe Board Risk Committee (BRC) is delegated the authority by the Board of Directors to oversee the Group’s risk management strategies and key activities. To achieve this, the BRC conducts periodic reviews and discussions with management on major decisions in managing risks and in the process, adds rigour to the Group’s ERM framework. There were four BRC meetings held in the year, attended by key management staff from the Corporate Office and the strategic business units.
The ERM Committee is a management committee chaired by the President & Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and supported by the Chief Risk Officer who serves as the secretary. The ERM Committee comprises the strategic business unit heads and their chief risk officers as well as the corporate function heads. It updates the BRC regularly on material risk issues such as policy formulation as well as reviews risk profiles and treatment plans. The ERM Committee is supported by sub-committees, including the Group Health, Safety, Security and Environment (HSSE) Committee, Project Risk Management Committee and Finance Committee, which explore in-depth critical risk issues in their respective areas of specialisation.
A robust risk management framework and concerted efforts by Sembcorp Marine helped to ensure that the Group continues to deliver sustainable value to its shareholders in the year.

Risk Management SystemA Group risk management workplan was set at the start of the year and key activities that were carried out include:
• Reviewed and benchmarked the Group’s internal controls, risk and crisis management policies (against relevant principles and guidelines from the Committee of Sponsoring Organisations of the Treadway Commission, ‘COSO’ ERM Framework, ISO 31000 standard for risk management and SS540 - Singapore Standard for Business Continuity Management)
• Discussed recent risk-related case studies that are relevant to or have impact on the Group
• Reviewed Business Continuity Plans of strategic business units
• Discussed updates on market and industry trends and developments
• Shared best practices and topics of interest including presentations by external consultants
In addition, the Group reviewed its top risk profile as part of its annual risk management workplan. As a result of considerable changes in the overall global economic situation as well as industry-specific conditions, the annual review of the Group’s risk profile saw a re-shuffling of previously established key risks and identification of new and emerging ones. The identified key risks and their mitigation strategies are discussed in the following sections.
Key Risks and Mitigation StrategiesExternal Environment RisksExternal environment risks that are significant to the Group include volatility in the commodity markets particularly oil, the state of the global economy and trade, the stability of the global financial and banking systems, foreign exchange fluctuations, government policies and actions, regulatory landscape, and natural disasters.
The Group has emerged largely unscathed from the global economic crisis. While the crisis had cast doubt over some of the Group’s projects due to customers running into financial difficulties, these projects have since been resolved satisfactorily with new buyers coming onboard. Further signs of the global economic recovery include the increasing risk appetites of industry players and the easing of the
credit crunch situation. As a result, there was a pick up in new orders for the Group in the later part of the year.
To address the trend of stricter transfer pricing enforcement in an increasing number of tax jurisdictions, the Group embarked on a transfer pricing exercise in 2010. The transfer pricing exercise, scheduled for completion in 2011, seeksto defend the Group’s cross-border related partytransactions and pricing by demonstrating compliance with the arm’s length principle and involves all strategic business units.
Through the risk management process, the Group continuously monitors its risk exposures along with changes in the external environment and assesses the potential threats and impacts to its business. However, it recognises that such risks are inherently volatile and unpredictable and cannot be eliminated. The Group thus adopts a balanced risk management approach to mitigate these risks to reasonable levels, taking into account its risk appetite.
Strategic RisksStrategic risks pertaining to the Group’s performance, customers, markets, industry trends, competition and new business initiatives are discussed at both the BRC and ERM Committee meetings.
In the annual strategic planning meeting at the Board level, these risks are considered in the strategies formulated to steer the Group to the next level of growth.
Health, Safety, Security and Environment RisksThe Group continues to place paramount importance in promoting a safe and healthy work environment for its customers, employees, contractors and the community. This is championed by the Group HSSE Committee, a sub-committee of the ERM Committee, involving key health, safety, security and environment personnel from all the yards. The HSSE Committee sets the direction and ensures adoption of leading industry practices across the Group. Among other things, it also closely monitors the Group’s safety performance and reports regularly to the BRC and ERM Committee.
34
To foster a strong safety culture, the Group has put in place a performance appraisal system which includes safety as an integral part of management’s key performance indicators. This demonstrates the importance of safety across the Group. The Workplace Safety and Security section of this annual report further illustrates the activities carried out in the year to mitigate HSSE risks.
Project Management RisksAs the Group’s main business activities relate to its projects, a significant proportion of the risks reside in the day-to-day operational activities of project management and construction execution. The Group’s ability to deliver its projects on time or ahead of schedule, within budget and meeting quality standards, demonstrates the effectiveness of risk management actions embedded in the systems and processes. This way, contractual obligations can be met and yard defaults avoided.
Another aspect lies with third-party stakeholders such as suppliers, vendors and contractors which the Group relies on for their services and goods. Should they fail to fulfil their obligations, the Group’s ability to honour its own contractual obligations to
customers on a timely basis will be compromised. This is especially so if there are limited substitutes, in particular for specialised equipment. Such shortfalls will in turn, subject the Group to claims and liabilities. While the Group continues to work with third parties, the stringent selection criteria and processes, coupled with constant monitoring and assessment, allow for warning signs to be flagged out timely.
The Project Risk Management Committee is another sub-committee of the ERM Committee. Chaired by the President & CEO, it provides a platform for the strategic business units across the Group to report and discuss project-related issues such as progress, costs, work variations, financial and contractual matters. Where circumstances allow, the strategic business units will collaborate to realise synergies such as the rationalisation of resources for better performance of contracts.
Financial RisksThe Group’s wide range and scale of core businesses and supporting activities expose it to various financial counterparties and risks which are intrinsically linked to the global financial market landscape. Policies and procedures covering key areas – treasury,

foreign exchange hedging, credit, accounting, inter-company transactions and approval limits for various transactions – have been established and implemented throughout the Group.
These policies set out guidelines to minimise the Group’s cost of capital, adverse effects of fluctuations in foreign currencies and interest rates on income as well as to ensure that sufficient funds are available to meet financial obligations and operational needs.
The Finance Committee (a sub-committee of the ERM Committee) is tasked to look into areas of financial system integrity, regulatory reporting, accounting, risk management and compliance systems, including internal and external audit issues. It is chaired by the Chief Financial Officer and comprises key finance personnel from the strategic business units and corporate functions of treasury, tax, internal audit and risk management.
The Group’s financial risk management is discussed in detail in Note 40 to the financial statements.
Human Resource RisksIt is important to have the right people with the requisite qualifications, skills and expertise to realise the Group’s strategic business plans. Recognising this, the Group actively recruits and retains talent to maintain and enhance its competitive edge. In this respect, there are comprehensive human resource policies and procedures in place for recruitment, compensation and staff development. Key risk areas include management succession, staff turnover, work-life balance as well as compensation and benefits. The Group’s human resource activities are discussed in detail in the People-Centredness section of this report.
Investment RisksThe Group seeks to grow its business through acquisition of business entities or operating assets, development of new capabilities and expanding its existing capabilities and activities. Investment activities, ranging from the identification of targets to the undertaking of due diligence exercises, are supported by a team of experienced managers and augmented by external professionals for specialised services. Business proposals are risk assessed and evaluated by senior management before seeking Board of Directors’ approval.
New investments, such as the Integrated New Yard Facility at Tuas View Extension, the new shipyard in Espirito Santo, Brazil and the joint-venture partnership with Kakinada Seaports, India, are continuously monitored and followed up against plans and budgets, for smooth execution and implementation.
Other Group-wide Risk-based ActivitiesArising from the annual risk review and regular risk assessments to manage key risks, other risk mitigation activities are Control Self Assessment (CSA) and Insurance Programmes:
Control Self Assessment The Group started its CSA programme in 2008. It is principled on risk-based governance with the following goals:• raise awareness amongst staff for the risks and
controls they are responsible for• promote ownership and accountability through
identifying the process and control owners in the selected CSA processes
• establish a verifiable framework for management to gauge the effectiveness of internal controls and subsequently enable improvements on control weaknesses identified
Currently, all the strategic business units have embarked on this programme, each with their CSA managers working closely with the Group in terms of implementation for new CSA areas and processes, training, reporting and auditing. The Group will continue to report to the BRC and ERM Committee on its implementation and progress.
InsuranceThe Group uses insurance as a risk transfer tool against possible losses in the normal course of its business. Where possible, to benefit from economies of scale and bargaining power, insurance is procured on a Group basis.
The Group works closely with its insurance brokers to achieve optimal coverage at the best prices available based on its risk profile, risk management capabilities and self-insuring capacity.

Investor Relations and Communications
Proactive Communication with Shareholders The Group’s management and Investor Relations (IR) team continued to maintain regular two-way communication with the investment community. On top of quarterly results announcements, one-on-one meetings, conference calls, roadshows, conferences, post-results luncheon meetings and yard tours involving analysts and fund managers were held during the year. These provided the investors with a better understanding of the Group’s financial results, the dynamics of the business, group performance and outlook of the industry.
In the year, the Group held about 90 one-on-one and group meetings with local and foreign institutional fund managers. These meetings excluded the Group’s participation at 13 conferences in Singapore and conference calls with investors. To stay in touch with institutional investors, non-deal road shows were held in Hong Kong, Tokyo, London and USA.
In addition, 12 shipyard tours were conducted for local and foreign fund managers and analysts to give them a better understanding of the Group’s operations. The event calendar on page 38 details the events participated by the Group in the year.
Research reports written by analysts, as well as feedback from investor meetings, provided management with insights into the investment community’s views of Sembcorp Marine, which were useful for managing market expectations and formulating corporate policies.
Sembcorp Marine adopted a pro-active approach in reaching out to investors and shareholders, and ensuring regular, fair and timely communication at all times. The Group was also committed to fostering long-term relationships with the investment community while upholding high corporate transparency standards.

It is important to reach out to Sembcorp Marine’s retail investor base. The last Annual General Meeting (AGM), which took place on 20 April, was wellattended by about 200 shareholders and observers. The Chairman, Board members and senior management were in attendance at the AGM to respond to questions and feedback from shareholders. Shareholders present had the opportunity to clarify or pose questions on issues pertaining to the proposed resolutions before the resolutions were voted on. At the luncheon reception held after the event, the Board of Directors and management also mingled and interacted with the shareholders to address further concerns or issues.
Timely and Fair DisclosureDuring the year, Sembcorp Marine continued to communicate with shareholders in a timely and fair manner as well as provide comprehensive information disclosure. Since FY2003, the Group has been announcing quarterly financial results within 45 days of the close of the previous quarter to provide timely information to investors.
Press and analyst briefings were organised on the dates in line with the half-year and full-year results announcements. All the meetings were chaired by the President & CEO who, together with the senior management team in attendance, replied to queries with regard to the Group’s performance and industry outlook.
All material information including quarterly results announcements are disclosed regularly and on a timely basis via SGXNET and the Group’s website. These announcements include the award of key contracts, significant milestones such as opening of new yards and investments or acquisitions.
The Group also maintains a dedicated IR section within the corporate website, www.sembcorpmarine.com.sg,to ensure timely and fair disclosure. The corporate website serves as a key resource for stakeholders as it offers a breadth of information including an overview of the Group’s business, company newsletters, and press releases as well as current and past annual reports and SGX announcements. To obtain prompt updates on the announcements by the Group, retail investors can also sign up for investor alerts on the website.
Diverse Shareholder BaseAs set forth in the Shareholders’ Information on page 40, there are 17,201 registered shareholders as at 3 March 2011. The actual number of investors is likely to be greater due to shares being held through nominees, investment funds and other share schemes.
Based on an analysis of Sembcorp Marine’s share register, besides Sembcorp Industries as a major shareholder, about 30.5 per cent of the Group’s

TurnoverThe Group registered a turnover of $4.6 billion in 2010, 20 per cent lower than $5.7 billion in 2009. The decline in revenue was due mainly to lower progressive recognition for rig building, ship conversion & offshore projects as well as lower variation order settlement in 2010 as compared to 2009.
EarningsGroup operating profit grew 9 per cent from $862 million to $943 million, attributable to the resumption of margin recognition arising from the sale of a harsh-environment jack-up rig as well as the execution of repeat rig orders for customers during the year.
Group net profit achieved a new high of $860 million. The 23 per cent growth was attributable to higher profit margin and the receipt of settlement of the disputed foreign exchange transactions with Societe Generale during 2010.
Financial Position
Total capital employed grew from $2.0 billion as at 31 December 2009 to $2.7 billion as at 31 December 2010. Of the total capital employed, shareholders’ funds amounted to $2.6 billion, 38 per cent higher than 2009, while non-controlling interests amounted to $88 million. Net asset value per share grew 37 per cent to $1.25.
Bank balances, fixed deposits and cash increased significantly to $2.9 billion mainly due to receipts from completed rig building projects.
Shareholder ReturnsEarnings per share increased to 41.55 cents in 2010 from 34.02 cents in 2009. Return on equity, at 38 per cent, was lower in 2010 as compared to 44 per cent in 2009.
Subject to approval by shareholders at the 48th Annual General Meeting, a final one-tier tax-exempt dividend of 31 cents per ordinary share has been proposed by the Board of Directors for the financial year ended December 31, 2010.

Financial Review
2006Group turnover grew by 67 per cent from $2.1 billion to $3.5 billion driven mainly by growth in the rig building and ship repair businesses.
Group operating profit increased by 83 per cent from $125 million in 2005 to $228 million in 2006, while Group pre-tax profit rose by 95 per cent from $160 million to $311 million. This improvement was attributable mainly to better operating margins from the rig building and ship repair businesses, gain on disposal of investments as well as higher contribution from associates. Group net profit increased by 96 per cent from $121 million to $238 million. Excluding the non-operating items of $21 million, Group net profit rose by 83 per cent to $218 million.
2007Group turnover for 2007 grew by 27 per cent from $3.6 billion in 2006 to $4.5 billion in 2007 with growth attributable mainly to the rig building, ship repair, offshore and conversion businesses.
Group operating profit grew by 53 per cent from $228 million in 2006 to $349 million in 2007. Group pre-tax profit increased by 17 per cent from $311 million in 2006 to $365 million in 2007. The increase was mainly attributable to higher turnover and operating margin from rig building and ship repair businesses, better contribution from associates, and gain on sale of other long-term equity investment amounting to $230 million. This was offset by the $308 million charged to the income statement arising from the Unauthorised Transactions and its related expenses (“the Charge”). Excluding the effect arising from the Unauthorised Transactions, pre-tax profit increased 117 per cent to $673 million.
Notwithstanding the Charge of $308 million to the fourth quarter 2007 income statement, net profit increased from $238 million in 2006 to $241 million in 2007. Excluding the Charge and non-operating items, Group net profit reported a 66 per cent increase to $362 million.
2008Group turnover rose 12 per cent from $4.5 billion in 2007 to $5.1 billion in 2008 driven mainly by rig building, ship conversion & offshore and ship repair businesses.
Group operating profit increased by 44 per cent from $349 million in 2007 to $502 million in 2008. Group pre-tax profit grew 49 per cent from $365 million in 2007 to $545 million in 2008. The increase was attributable to the higher revenue and operating margin from rig building and ship repair businesses, offset by the lower contributions from Cosco Shipyard Group.
Group net profit increased by 78 per cent from $241 million to $430 million in 2008. Excluding the one-off charge of $44 million arising from the commercial settlement with BNP Paribas of foreign exchange transactions in 2008, Group net profit at $474 million was 31 per cent higher than the net profit in 2007.
2009Group turnover registered a high at $5.7 billion in 2009, an increase of 13 per cent attributable mainly to growth from the rig building sector.
Group operating profit increased by 72 per cent to $862 million in 2009 from $502 million in 2008 mainly due to better operational efficiency and execution of repeat rig orders. Group pre-tax profit grew by 67 per cent from $545 million in 2008 to $908 million in 2009, attributable mainly to the higher operating margin from rig building projects.
Group net profit increased by 63 per cent to $700 million in 2009 from $430 million in 2008.
2010Group turnover of $4.6 billion was 20 per cent lower than that of the previous year due mainly to lower progressive revenue recognition for the rig building, ship conversion & offshore projects as well as lower variation order settlement in 2010 versus 2009.
Group operating profit grew by 9 per cent to $943 million, from $862 million in 2009. The increase was due to the resumption of margin recognition arising from the sale of a harsh-environment jack-up rig as well as the execution of repeat rig orders for customers during the year. Group pre-tax profit rose 19 per cent from $908 million to $1.1 billion, the highest achieved by the Group. The increase was attributable to higher profit margin and the receipt of settlement of the disputed foreign exchange transactions with Societe Generale during the year.
Group net profit increased by 23 per cent to a record $860 million, from $700 million in 2009.

The Group’s shipyards won another five FPSO contracts and one accommodation topside contract in 2010 and 2011. The FPSO conversion contracts awarded to Jurong Shipyard comprised a contract at approximately $130 million by Petrobras Netherlands for the pre-conversion of a Very Large Crude Carrier into the P62 FPSO vessel and a $351 million contract by Teekay Petrojarl Production for the conversion of the FPSO Petrojarl Cidade de Itajai from a tanker.
Sembawang Shipyard also won two contracts worth $75 million involving the floating production unit (FPU) conversion of a tanker for BW Offshore and the upgrading of the FPSO Glas Dowr for Bluewater Energy Services. In January 2011, Sembawang Shipyard won a $123 million contract for the engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning of the RV Investigator, a dynamically positioned blue-water research vessel, for Teekay Shipping (Australia). SMOE secured a $550 million contract by ConocoPhillips Skandinavia to build the Ekofisk accommodation topside for 552 personnel.
Ship Repair The ship repair business was the third largest sector with a revenue of $646 million, accounting for 14 per cent of the Group’s turnover in 2010. The Group reaffirmed its position as an industry leader in ship repair with a total of 282 vessels calling on its yards for repairs and maintenance during 2010.
The average value per vessel was $2.3 million. In terms of the vessel mix, repairs for tankers contributed to 29 per cent of ship repair turnover, followed by the upgrading of drillships and FPSOs at 24 per cent, passenger ships at 9 per cent, bulk carriers at 7 per cent, LNG gas tankers at 9 per cent, containerships at 6 per cent and other vessels at 16 per cent. Alliance/Favoured Customer Contract (FCC) partners and regular customers continued to support the Group with a steady base-load, accounting for 85 per cent of all repairs in 2010.

Operations Review and Market Outlook
LNG Shipping (International) Company and K Line Shipmanagement as well as an LNG carrier longevity contract from FCC partner North West Shelf LNG Venture during the year. Other upgrading and repair orders secured comprised the life-extension of a cargo ship owned by Bluescope Steel and managed by Teekay Shipping (Australia), a ship repair contract from a regular Taiwanese customer, a contract for lengthening and dry-docking repairs from Interislander, as well as upgrading and repair jobs for both Star Cruises (Malaysia) and PT Pelayaran Nasional Indonesia.
More long-term contracts were established in the year. Eitzen Group, which controlled about 100 ships trading worldwide, renewed its long-term contract
with Sembawang Shipyard to send its ships for scheduled and upgrading repairs. As a further step to increase its market share for cruise-ship repairs and upgrading, Sembawang Shipyard signed another long-term contract in the year with Carnival Corporation, the world’s largest cruise operator. This contract would commit the repairs, refurbishment and upgrading of Carnival Corporation’s passenger ships cruising in the Far East to Sembawang Shipyard.
In early 2011, three more contracts worth $92 million were won by Sembawang Shipyard. These comprised an upgrade of a dynamically positioned heavy-lift and pipelay vessel, an LNG carrier longevity project and an upgrade of a drillship.

Market Outlook and Underlying Market DriversWorld Economic OutlookThe two-speed economic recovery is expected to continue into the future, according to the January 2011 report by the International Monetary Fund (IMF). In advanced economies, activity has moderated at a lower rate than expected, and growth remains subdued. The high rates of unemployment and renewed stresses in the euro area periphery are contributing to the downside risks. While activity remains buoyant in many emerging economies, inflationary pressures are emerging with some signs of overheating, driven in part by strong capital inflows. Most developing countries, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa, are also growing strongly. Global output is projected to expand by 4.5 per cent in 2011, an upward revision of about 0.25 percentage point relative to IMF’s World Economic Outlook (WEO) in October 2010.
Activity in advanced economies is projected to expand by 2.5 per cent during 2011–12, which is still sluggish considering the depth of the 2009 recession. This is insufficient to make a significant dent in high unemployment rates. Nevertheless, the 2011 growth projection is an upward revision of 0.25 percentage point relative to the October 2010 WEO. The updated forecast is attributed to stronger-than-expected activity in the second half of 2010 as well as new policy initiatives in the United States that are expected to boost activity in 2011.
In both 2011 and 2012, growth in emerging and developing economies is projected to remain buoyant at 6.5 per cent, a modest slowdown from the 7 per cent growth registered last year. Developing Asia is expected to grow most rapidly, with other emerging regions continuing their strong rebound.
However, significant risks still remain. Downside risks arise from the possibility of tensions in the euro area periphery spreading to the core of Europe; the lack of progress in formulating medium-term fiscal consolidation plans in major advanced economies; the continued weakness of the United States real estate market; high commodity prices overheating; the potential for boom-bust cycles in emerging markets; and possible economic spillovers arising from regional events such as the tensions in the Middle East, North Africa and the earthquake in Japan.
Moderation of Singapore EconomyReversing a contraction of 2 per cent in 2009, Singapore’s economy grew 14.5 per cent in the whole of 2010. In fact, according to the IMF, Singapore’s economy rebounded from the crisis by the second quarter of 2010, recovering faster than most economies.
The growth outlook for Singapore remains positive in 2011 with the continuing recovery of the global economy. The Ministry of Trade and Industry expects the Singapore economy to grow by 4.0 to 6.0 per cent in 2011.
To sustain such growth for Singapore over the next five to 10 years, the Budget 2010 measures focused on growing productivity, supporting the growth of more globally competitive Singapore companies and raising the income levels of its people. The measures aimed to further help the country seize opportunities amid a recovering economy by enhancing support for companies to invest in workers’ skills and productivity improvements as well as to raise competitiveness.
Demand for Oil at High LevelsThe International Energy Agency (IEA) estimates global oil demand to rise to 89.3 million bpd in 2011, 1.7 per cent higher than its forecast for oil demand in 2010, on the back of higher-than-expected submissions in non-OECD Asia and improved economic prospects for OECD North America.
Based on the New Policies Scenario, world primary energy demand is expected to increase by 36 per cent between 2008 and 2035, or 1.2 per cent per year on average. The previous 27-year period had recorded a 2 per cent growth per year. The projection assumes cautious implementation of the policy commitments and plans announced by countries around the world, including the national pledges to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions and plans to phase out fossil-fuel subsidies.
In the New Policies Scenario, non-OECD countries account for 93 per cent of the projected increase in global energy demand, reflecting mainly faster rates of growth of economic activity. Energy demand in China, which has surged over the past decade, is forecasted to rise by 75 per cent between 2008 and 2035, contributing about 36 per cent to the projected growth in global energy use. Aggregate energy demand in OECD countries, however, is projected

Operations Review and Market Outlook
to rise very slowly. Nonetheless, by 2035, the United States is expected to remain the world’s second largest energy consumer behind China.
Exploration and Production Spending on the RiseThrough a recent survey of 402 companies, Barclays Capital predicts global exploration and production spending to rise by 11 per cent to $490 billion in 2011 on the back of investment boosts in Latin America, South-East Asia, the Middle East and North Africa.
In the survey, oil companies had based their spending projections for 2011 on an average oil price estimate of US$77.32 per barrel, up from the US$73.56 level they had forecasted when surveyed in mid-2010.
Unlike in recent years when National Oil Companies accounted for the majority of spending gains, super-majors are likely to show the largest increases in spending, going forward into 2011.
Positive Outlook for Production FloatersAccording to a November 2010 report by the International Maritime Associates (IMA), there are 250 floating production units in service or available worldwide. The units consist of 155 FPSO vessels,
42 production semis, 22 tension leg platforms, 18 production spars, eight production barges and five floating storage regasification (FSRU) vessels.
Another 49 production floaters make up the current order backlog, which comprises 35 FPSOs, six production semis, one tension leg platform, three FSRUs and four floating gas liquefaction (FLNG) vessels. Brazil continues to dominate orders for production floaters. Of the 49 production floaters on order, 19 units are being built for use offshore Brazil, constituting about 40 percent of the order backlog.
With strong fundamentals driving the floating production market, IMA has identified 196 offshore projects at various stages of design or planning that potentially require a floating production or storage system.
Market DevelopmentThe fundamentals for the oil industry remain intact with the Brent oil price exceeding US$100/bbl. In addition, the world economy shows steady improvement, providing support for increasing longer-term energy demand although short-term demand is likely to be affected by recent events in Middle East, North Africa and Japan.

Premium Jack-up RigsThe market for premium jack-up rigs continues to show improvement. The utilisation rate of premium jack-up rigs is still holding above 90 percent. The risk to the supply-demand balance caused by the possible reactivation of stacked jack-up rigs appears to be decreasing over time as the significant investments that are needed to put many of these units back in operational mode cannot be justified by the returns. Oil companies remain attracted to the safety and efficiency gains offered by the newer and higher specification units.
The bifurcation in utilisation and pricing between older jack-ups and newer premium jack-ups is expected to continue. Likewise, the trend of replacing older equipment with new equipment is holding strong, with 30 firm orders world-wide of new jack-up rigs since October 2010. The number of jack-ups under construction still corresponds to less than 5 percent of the existing jack-up fleet, which already has an average age of more than 20 years.
Ultra-deepwater FloatersThe demand for ultra-deepwater units continues to be impacted by the low activity in the United States Gulf of Mexico in spite of the moratorium being lifted in October 2010. However, the recent issue of the

first deepwater drilling permit could have the effect of spurring optimism of deepwater activity returning to the United States Gulf of Mexico.
Nevertheless, deepwater drilling activities for the rest of the world are expected to increase. The strong growth in demand for development drilling in Brazil and West Africa will be the main new driver in the market, which will further accelerate in the years to come. However, activity growth is also expected from additional countries in West Africa, East Africa and Southeast Asia as well as emerging new frontier markets, such as Greenland and Australia.
Oil companies continue to focus on new technically superior dynamically positioned deepwater units. Since October 2010, 21 new ultra-deepwater units world-wide have been ordered with deliveries scheduled in 2013 and 2014.

Innovation and Productivity
Sembcorp Marine continued to drive R&D efforts, process innovation initiatives and facilities development across the Group, leading to enhanced capabilities and efficiencies for the customers, as well as significant cost savings and productivity improvements for the yards.
JU3000N jack-up design, the brainchild of Jurong Shipyard, Noble and Friede & Goldman.
President & CEO Mr Wong Weng Sun interacting with employees at an innovation carnival.
Proprietary Designs and CapabilitiesSembcorp Marine Technology, the subsidiary tasked with driving the Group’s research and development efforts in marine and offshore technology, completed the SMT-2 semi-submersible design in 2010. Complementing other market-leading designs offered by the Group, the SMT-2 rig is capable of drilling with dynamic positioning (DP3) capabilities in waters of up to 10,000 feet under harsh environmental conditions.
In the year, Jurong Shipyard jointly developed the Friede & Goldman JU3000N jack-up rig design in partnership with Noble Corporation and designer Friede & Goldman. The new JU3000N design features an enlarged hull with enhanced operational benefits, including an ergonomic and efficient accommodation layout, increased deck space and strategic placement of equipment that will allow the crew to carry out maintenance duties efficiently and safely. The rig will be capable of operating in waters of 400 feet and drilling to depths of 30,000 feet.
74
Innovation and Productivity
The latest proprietary jack-up design by PPL Shipyard, the Pacific Class 400, was also launched in the year. It is designed to operate in waters of 400 feet and drill to depths of 30,000 feet, with increased accommodation for 150 men. Equipped with the latest drilling equipment, the rig will have improved drilling efficiencies with offline pipe handling simultaneous operations support.
Innovative ProcessesEmployees and contractor partners actively embracedinnovation as they sought ways to continuously improve their daily work processes. Some of these innovations not just improved workplace safety and health but also increased productivity and reduced operational costs. In 2010, three projects were duly recognised – with one gold award and two silver awards – at the 13th Marine Industry Workplace Safety and Health Innovation Convention organised by the Association of Singapore Marine Industries on 2 September.
The gold award winner, OctoMaster, was the brainchild of the LIFE Team from Jurong Shipyard. It provided a systematic and one-stop solution for the safe and efficient overhaul of butterfly valves. By using two remotely operated jacking systems to assemble the butterfly valve, this innovation eliminated manual hammering and the strenuous use of physical strength, resulting in a three-fold increase in productivity, manpower savings of 60 per cent and cost savings of about 85 per cent.
Sembawang Shipyard’s CSI: Next Gen 2 Team and Hull Team B both clinched silver awards for the Emergency Evacuation System and the Safe Access
Handler respectively. The Emergency Evacuation System, resulting from a joint collaboration with students from National University of Singapore (NUS), integrated various alarm and lighting systems to create a more effective warning and response system that improved evacuation time and efficiency of confined space rescue operations.
The Safe Access Handler provided a simple yet innovative way of removing and refitting access plates onboard vessels and enabling easy installation of guardrails to secure the opening, significantly enhancing workplace safety. By not relying on cranes to perform the tasks, the innovation helped to boost productivity with projected cost savings of over $150,000.
Industry CollaborationsIn its search for innovative solutions, Sembcorp Marine Technology worked closely with tertiary institutions to leverage their capabilities in areas relevant to the Group’s strategies and operations. In 2010, it continued to partner with tertiary institutions on various projects, which included three undertaken with NUS.
One of these was the Underwater Monitoring Device, developed jointly with the University’s Mechanical Engineering students. This device adopted a less risky process of inspecting and monitoring a ship’s position relative to the keel blocks during dry-docking, without the need for divers. Instead, it employed a remote-controlled wireless monitoring device to feedback information to personnel on land. The prototype for the device was built and tested successfully during the year.

Another project involving the Mechanical Engineering students was a device which ran on wave energy, with the ability to convert wave energy into electrical energy. When tested in a wave tank, the project achieved positive results and had the potential for further development.
The third collaborative project with NUS was to develop a software programme to optimise offshore production schedules, taking into account unforeseen disturbances in the production line. Having completed the first phase of the project, the software was being implemented in the assembly planning process at Jurong Integrated Services, one of Sembcorp Marine’s subsidiaries. The teams involved planned to enhance and optimise the design further in the second phase.
Such collaborative efforts with tertiary institutions also extended to research in environmental friendly marine and offshore technologies. Demonstrating its commitment towards environmental protection, Sembcorp Marine pledged its support towards the Maritime Clean Energy Research Programme, an initiative jointly launched by the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore and Nanyang Technological University (NTU).
This research programme would leverage research platforms found within the Energy Research Institute at NTU (ERI@N) to develop capabilities in clean energy and environment technology that would promote green, carbon-neutral, energy management solutions for shipping and port management.
In conjunction with the programme, Sembcorp Marine and NTU inked a Memorandum of Understanding to explore collaborations with the Centre for Maritime Energy Research, a new centre under ERI@N. As one of six industry partners, Sembcorp Marine would lend its expertise to enhance and test-bed some of the technologies, which could eventually be adopted within its yards.
Other Innovation ActivitiesSembcorp Marine Technology continued to push the innovation frontier further by publishing technical papers in several mediums including the 31st Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers Singapore Annual Journal 2009/2010. It was also a major sponsor of the Advanced Maritime Engineering Conference, a learning event held concurrently with the 4th Pan Asian Association of Maritime Engineering Societies Forum.
Yard Developments To improve work efficiency, the Group’s yards expanded their capabilities through the addition and upgrading of new facilities in the year. SMOE saw the official opening of its new 1,400 sqm Admirax Office Building on 3 August. The new engineering premises, which could accommodate about 170 staff, was fully equipped with basic office facilities, conference rooms and a telepresence facility.
SMOE further completed a purpose-built climatically controlled 1,900 sqm warehouse – to provide efficient, clean and dry storage for its existing Ekofisk Accommodation Topside Project – and embarked upon building an enclosed facility dedicated for titanium welding.
Its subsidiary, PT SMOE Indonesia, officially opened a 1,600 sqm workers’ cafeteria as part of the second phase of its yard development programme. The new dining facility could seat up to 1,000 people, in anticipation of the yard’s growing needs.

Workplace Safety and Security
Sembcorp Marine remained fully committed to ensuring a safe and secure work environment at all times. To achieve this, it sought to instill a culture of pro-active individual involvement, personal accountability and continuous improvement among all employees, customers and subcontractors.
Safety CertificationsIn line with the Group’s safety commitment, the yards continually benchmark themselves against the leading international safety standards and practices. The five Singapore yards were certified to OHSAS 18001:2007, an internationally recognised standard for managing occupational health and safety. Every three years, the yards also subjected themselves to re-certifications to ensure that their processes continued to be in line with the standards. In 2010, both SMOE and Jurong SML were successfully re-certified to OHSAS 18001:2007 by leading certification bodies Det Norske Veritas and ABS Quality Evaluations respectively.
The yards also sought to raise the bar in safety standards in the course of their projects. In its execution of the harsh-environment Halfdan Phase IV Process Platform Project, SMOE received Certificates of Conformity from Det Norske Veritas for compliance to the Danish Offshore Safety Act and to the Council Directive 97/23/EC on Pressure Equipment for CE Marking. Recognitions for Safety EffortsAt the National Workplace Safety and Health (WSH) Awards organised by the National WSH Council and supported by the Ministry of Manpower, the Group’s yards clinched a total of 20 awards across various categories.
In the WSH Performance Awards (Safety and Health Award Recognition for Projects category), Jurong Shipyard won ten awards and Sembawang Shipyard garnered three awards for various rig building, ship conversion and ship repair projects that had achieved good workplace safety and health performance.

Workplace Safety and Security
Jurong Shipyard, Sembawang Shipyard and PPL Shipyard were honoured with WSH Innovation Awards in the Marine category for three innovative projects that improved safety and health standards in the workplace.
For its achievement and innovation in minimising workplace safety and health hazards, Sembawang Shipyard won an award in the WSH Practices Awards (Outstanding Achievement & Innovation) category for its Safe Swinger project. PPL Shipyard also clinched an award in the WSH Practices Awards (Innovation)category for its Pipe Transporter project, an innovative and safer alternative for transferring pipes.
Two supervisors from Sembawang Shipyard and PPL Shipyard were also honoured with individual safety awards in recognition of their commitment in caring for workers under their charge and improving workplace safety and health.
At another event organised by the Association of Singapore Marine Industries, several individuals from Jurong Shipyard and Sembawang Shipyard – including Jurong Shipyard’s Chief Health Safety and Environment Manager Mr Richard Tuan and 21 supervisors – were accorded recognition for their commitment and contributions to WSH excellence.
Safety PerformanceBased on the number of considerable accidents per million man-hours, Sembcorp Marine attained an accumulative frequency rate (AFR) of 0.4 in 2010, as compared to 0.6 a year ago. The accumulative severity rate (ASR), which records the number of man-days lost per million man-hours, improved from 237.1 in 2009 to 68.3 in 2010. The Group will continue to heighten safety standards by refining its WSH management framework to pro-actively prevent incidents at the workplace.
Robust Safety FrameworkSembcorp Marine adopted a robust safety framework which focused on building a pro-active safety culture as well as raising WSH excellence among employees and contractor partners. To reinforce safety and minimise risks, the Group implemented the REV (Review, Evaluate and Validate) programme which involved regular safety audits, evaluations and risk assessments to ensure health, safety and environmental compliance in addition to comprehensive safety inspections onboard and at project sites.
The Group and its yards also worked closely with the Ministry of Manpower and the WSH Council to build a strong safety culture among contractors. A key area

of collaboration was the bizSAFE programme to assist contractor partners in boosting their workplace safety and health capabilities. As certified bizSAFE partners, the yards put in place a number of initiatives, including training workshops and direct dialogue sessions with senior executives, for contractor partners to enhance their WSH and risk management systems. These were further supplemented with timely updates on safety procedures as well as regular inspections to ensure compliance. Awards were also presented to reward and affirm sub-contractors for their good safety performance.
Resulting from these efforts, all 400 of Sembcorp Marine’s contractors received bizSAFE Level 3 certification and above, an indication that they had the necessary competencies to fulfil the risk management regulatory requirements of the industry’s Workplace Safety and Health Act. More than 70 of the contractors went on to achieve the distinction of bizSAFE Star, having been audited by an independent third-party certification company for compliance to international standards.
Promoting Safety CultureTo emphasise safety ownership, Sembcorp Marine and its group of yards launched a number of
campaigns to reach out to employees. One of the key events was the annual Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) Convention, which was graced by Guest-of-Honour Mr Hawazi Daipi, Senior Parliamentary Secretary for Health and Manpower. During the convention, senior management of Sembcorp Marine and its yards came together to reaffirm their commitment towards WSH excellence. With the theme ‘Safety Is In My Hand’, the event sought to further reinforce among employees, contractors and stakeholders the importance of taking personal responsibility for workplace safety and health.
The yards also focused on specific themes for their safety events and initiatives. During the year, Jurong Shipyard launched the inaugural ‘Hook for Life’ Safety Campaign to communicate the importance of observing risk management procedures and best practices during work-at-height operations. At Sembawang Shipyard, the six-month ‘Handle with Care’ HSE campaign was launched in October with the aim of preventing hand and finger injuries. To effectively reach out to employees, key safety messages were also conveyed through various mediums. For example at Jurong Shipyard, eachworker received a HSE diary highlighting safe work

practices to encourage pro-active safety behaviour. Safety DVDs were also given out to advocate safe forklift handling. PPL Shipyard extended its safety outreach to its clients by distributing handbooks covering Singapore’s legislative requirements on health and safety as well as in-house safety practices.
Safety Promotion at a National LevelSembcorp Marine and its yards renewed their commitment to health, safety, security and environment excellence by sponsoring the National Workplace Safety & Health Campaign 2010. The campaign was organised by the WSH Council and launched by the Minister for Manpower Mr Gan Kim Yong to raise awareness of the important role played by all stakeholders in ensuring a safe, healthy and incident-free work environment.
In the lead-up to the national campaign launch, Sembcorp Marine organised a ‘Safety Is In My Hand’ pledging ceremony. The event witnessed more than 100 representatives from the Group’s yards and stakeholder partners endorsing their commitment towards WSH excellence by stamping and signing on a mural wall dedicated to the campaign.
Sembcorp Marine was also a major sponsor of the inaugural Singapore Workplace Safety & Health Conference. Organised by the WSH Council and supported by the International Labour Organisation, the conference was officially opened by Senior Minister Professor S Jayakumar. With the theme ‘Embracing Challenges, Pushing WSH Frontiers’, the event sought to highlight how workplace safety and health could advance business and economic development.
Security ControlsDuring the year, Sembcorp Marine’s yards, which are compliant to the International Ship and Port Facility Security (ISPS) Code, continued to mitigate the risk of security threats and maintain high levels of vigilance. To safeguard against any security breaches, the yards conducted round-the-clock patrols and surveillance at strategic access points. Stringent security checks on employees, contractors and visitors entering the premises continued to be carried out, with the assistance of RFID and biometric authentication systems. Audit exercises were also conducted at the yards to ensure continued compliance to the ISPS Code.
Emergency PreparednessThe yards conducted several emergency response drills throughout 2010 to prepare employees to handle various scenarios, including fire, confined space evacuation, rescue at height and other environment-related hazards. These exercises were conducted internally and also in collaboration with external agencies and partners such as the Singapore Police Force and the Singapore Civil Defence Force.
Yard facilities were also enhanced during the year to further improve emergency preparedness. At Jurong Shipyard, the facilities at two medical clinics were upgraded and primed for faster emergency medical response. The clinics were fitted with biometric temperature scan systems to speed up the screening process and could be easily reconfigured to segregate employees who are unwell should the need arise. At the same time, the yards continued to equip themselves with sufficient personal protection equipment and medical supplies in preparation for possible outbreaks.

Manpower AvailabilityThe Group recruited new employees through a number of channels, to ensure the shipyards were well-staffed for their needs. A total of 11 career fairs and talks were held at major tertiary and vocational institutions in Singapore during the year.
Sembcorp Marine and its yards continued to offer scholarships to bright young individuals with excellent academic and co-curricular track records. The Group offered 32 scholarships in 2010, compared to 23 scholarships in 2009. There were also 22 scholars who returned in the year to pursue their careers in the Group’s subsidiaries.
Industrial attachments were also another avenue to attract students to the marine and offshore industry. The Group’s yards saw 92 students attached to
various projects and work functions in the year. To showcase the exciting career opportunities and the growth potential of the Group, yard tours were further organised for 554 students and visitors last year.
Since 2005, Jurong Shipyard, Sembawang Shipyard and PPL Shipyard have been actively promoting the Super V series of programmes to attract recruits with non-marine qualifications. The programme is aimed at identifying and grooming local workers for supervisory positions within the marine and offshore industry. Under the scheme, suitable recruits underwent structured skills training leading to National Institute of Technical Education Certificate (NITEC) qualifications. Between 2005 and 2010, the Group had successfully recruited a total of 332 Super V and V2 trainee supervisors.

Manpower DevelopmentSembcorp Marine continued to develop employees and equip them with essential knowledge and skills to perform to their best ability. This was achieved through competency-based training, training programmes in collaboration with academic institutions, management development programmes, overseas attachments, mentoring and coaching as well as job rotation.
One of the highlights in 2010 was the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding between Sembcorp Marine and Institute of Technical Education (ITE) on 23 July to set up the Marine Engineering and Quality Centre at ITE College Central. In this five-year collaboration, both parties would combine their expertise to provide a platform for the mutual sharing of best practices in marine and offshore technology and pedagogy, to train the Institute’s students in the field of marine and offshore engineering as well as to strengthen the competencies and skills of the Group’s workforce.
Sembcorp Marine also collaborated with other tertiary institutions on several fronts. Notably, the Group partnered the Singapore Institute of Technology in 2010 in the area of marine and offshore curriculum development. At the same time, the Group’s employees could also leverage this partnership to upgrade themselves with a range of specialised degree courses.
Apart from skills-based courses, employees also attended personal enrichment and development programmes on a wide range of topics such as customer service excellence, positive relationshipbuilding, change management and time management.
During the year, Sembcorp Marine also rolled out the second wave of the Mentoring Programme, following its successful launch in 2009, to promote knowledge sharing and skills transfer among employees. To facilitate the mentoring process, a series of briefings and meetings were organised to foster closer ties between the mentors and mentees.
Another area of focus in the year was on productivity and continuous improvement. Using the Value Stream Analysis approach, teams from across the five yards learnt how to do work better, faster and more cost-effectively through an internal friendly competition.
Manpower RetentionAt Sembcorp Marine, a robust performance management system combined with an effective reward and recognition framework helped to retain talented employees. The Group uses an objective appraisal system to ensure all employees are appraised on measurable key performance indicators and desirable behavioural traits required for effective performance in their jobs.
Apart from offering competitive salary packages which commensurate with work experience and industry benchmarks, high-performance employees were rewarded and recognised through salary increments and promotion opportunities. In addition, employees who showed exemplary contribution – such as proactive participation in innovation, safety, quality and teamwork – were recognised through special awards.

As a further incentive, annual Long Service Awards were presented to recognise long-serving staff. In 2010, the Awards honoured 421 loyal employees, including 190 who had served more than 30 years with the Group.
Organisation DevelopmentSembcorp Marine also sought to ensure that various internal systems were in place to allow its people to maximise organisational effectiveness. Aligned to the Group’s vision and business strategies, these structures and processes were aimed at motivating employees to take ownership over organisational outcomes.
One of the key initiatives rolled out in the year was the launch of Sembcorp Marine’s first group-wide employee satisfaction survey. A total of 2,242 employees, or about 73 per cent of the target group, responded to the survey. Overall, 86.5 per cent of the employees who responded were satisfied with their jobs and the company. The survey findings, which were disseminated to the staff, would also help Sembcorp Marine review and refine its policies and programmes to improve employee engagement.
Information technology was also harnessed to reach out and engage employees across the Group. In early September 2010, the Employee Stock Option
System was launched and made available via intranet for staff to view their allotted shares and transactions. During the year, Jurong Shipyard also upgraded its ‘J-Link’ intranet portal into a convenient gateway for employees to obtain various documentations and forms as well as information on the latest news, policies and procedures applicable at the workplace.
Organisation Culture & Working EnvironmentSembcorp Marine continued to build a supportive and engaging work environment, with strong family-like bonds. In addition to caring for employees’ welfare in the areas of work-life harmony and workplace health, the Group organised festive celebrations and community outreach activities to foster interaction and build camaraderie.
Strengthening ties with the Unions was also an important part of creating a harmonious work environment. To further reinforce tripartite synergy and union-management cohesiveness, several events were organised by the Group together with its yards and their Unions during the year, including a National Day Observance Ceremony at Jurong Shipyard and Sembawang Shipyard’s ‘Run for the Union, Run for the Nation’ event.

Workplace Health Promotion
Recognising the importance of enhancing employees’ total well-being, the Group offered a wide range of programmes to promote work-life balance as well as healthy and active lifestyles.
Awards and AccoladesAs an endorsement of its commitment to workplace health promotion, the Group won several national health and wellness awards in 2010. Sembcorp Marine was conferred the prestigious Work-Life Excellence Award by the Tripartite Committee on Work-Life Strategy in recognition of its active efforts to foster work-life synergy.
At the Health Promotion Board’s National HEALTH (Helping Employees Achieve Life-time Health) Awards during the year, Sembawang Shipyard clinched the prestigious Platinum HEALTH award for its commendable workplace health promotion programmes.
Active LifestyleThe Group promotes active living among employees through a range of workplace fitness programmes. In addition to a daily five-minute morning exercise routine practiced by all staff, the shipyards organised other mass exercises regularly. In 2010, Jurong Shipyard’s ACTIVE (All Companies Together in Various Exercises) Day programme involved a half-hour mass workout session on the first Monday each month. During these ACTIVE Day events, staff enjoyed a fusion of yoga stretches and boxercise moves before commencing their work. Nutritious snacks were also handed out to encourage them to embrace a healthy lifestyle.
For their recreation, employees from Sembcorp Marine’s yards could choose from a variety of workplace exercise classes, ranging from yoga, pilates and hip-hop fitness to tai-chi and belly-dancing. To further encourage them in their sporting endeavours, the Group sponsored staff participation in sports competitions and fitness events, including the Safari Zoo Run, Dow Live Earth Run for Water, Sundown Marathon and National Runway Cycling & Skating.

In addition, the yards were active in organising a range of social and recreational activities to foster bonding and interaction among the staff. Apart from the regular soccer competitions, bowling tournaments and beach volleyball events, the clubs also enriched their programme line-up with novel activities during the year. At Sembawang Shipyard, a group of employees participated in an inaugural 72-hour non-stop cricket tournament organised by the Ceylon Sports Club, a record-breaking event acknowledged by the Singapore Book of Records.
Sembcorp Marine’s management demonstrated strong support at these recreational events. The Southern Ridges Nature Walk, involving more than 250 Jurong Shipyard participants, was flagged off by the Group’s President & CEO Mr Wong Weng Sun. At the inaugural Sembcorp Marine Futsal Tournament, Deputy President Mr Ong Poh Kwee kicked off the event which brought together 16 teams from across the Group’s yards.
The Group also strengthened ties with the maritime community through its active participation in games and competitions at the industry level. These sporting events included the Singapore International Sportsweek for Seafarers and the Singapore Futsal
Tournament for Seafearers organised by the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore as well as the 15th Seven-a-side Soccer Tournament held by the Association of Singapore Marine Industries.
Healthy LivingTo encourage healthy living among employees, the Group rolled out a wide variety of workplace health promotion activities in the year. These included wellness talks and workshops covering diverse topics such as cancer prevention, healthy grocery choices, hypertension, prostate cancer prevention and relaxation techniques.
There were other group-wide efforts to spread the healthy eating message. Sembcorp Marine and its subsidiaries marked Health & Wellness Day on 12 May with the dissemination of healthy snack packs to all staff. Each pack contained samples of healthier snack choices as well as a booklet by the Health Promotion Board (HPB) on good dietary habits.
Sembcorp Marine also continued to work closely with government agencies to improve employees’ health and fitness. Following its participation in HPB’s ‘Lose to Win’ competition in 2009, the Group went on to support the ‘Lose to Win Reunion Challenge’ in 2010,

which reunited fellow contestants in a further effort to lose weight. In this challenge, two staff won nation-wide honours for achieving the highest percentage of weight loss.
Healthcare at WorkReflecting its commitment to employee care, Sembcorp Marine provides a full range of programmes to promote health and wellness among staff. These include annual health screenings for employees to enable early detection of chronic conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure, stroke, hypertension and high cholesterol. Participation in the health screenings increased this year with growing awareness among employees of the importance of regular health checks.
Sembcorp Marine continued to lead the way in workplace healthcare with the JCare scheme, which was launched in 2007 as a pilot project in Jurong Shipyard in partnership with Alexandra Health. The first of its kind to be implemented in Singapore, this revolutionary care delivery programme brings personal healthcare to the workplace through on-site health checks, tele-consultation as well as facilitated networks to provide greater convenience and accessibility to employees.
During the year, Sembawang Shipyard signed its first workplace health Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Alexandra Health in 2010. The MOU signing ceremony on 26 April was graced by Mr Khaw Boon Wan, Minister for Health, Member of Parliament for Sembawang GRC and Advisor to Sembawang Shipyard Union. Under the agreement,
Khoo Teck Puat Hospital would provide health screening, chronic disease management and partnered healthcare services to employees. Staff could also look forward to faster treatment of worksite injuries through the tele-consultation services available. Earlier in 2007, Jurong Shipyard had signed a MOU with Alexandra Health to provide enhanced health programmes for its employees.
In the area of diabetic care, Jurong Shipyard continued to provide bi-monthly on-site health checks as part of its ‘Diabetes Programme at Workplace’ initiative. The yard was the first to launch this innovative scheme in 2009 to make diabetes intervention, management and education more convenient and cost-efficient for employees. At Sembawang Shipyard, employees in need of diabetic care could better manage their health condition through the ‘Diabetics Management Programme’, which was implemented in early 2010.
Continuing its successful ‘Diabetes Champion Programme’, Jurong Shipyard encouraged several diabetic employees who had shown marked improvements in their health conditions to motivate their peers to follow their examples. During the year, their journey towards better health was documented in a video produced by Khoo Teck Puat Hospital for the general public.

Contributions to the Community
Committed to making a positive difference to the community, Sembcorp Marine directed its corporate responsibility efforts in the areas of education, community development, national unity, industry outreach and the arts.
Youths and EducationSembcorp Marine actively supported educational causes in an effort to help youths fulfil their potential, develop their talents and pursue their dreams.
For the past decade, Sembcorp Marine had been helping needy students in the community through its School Book Assistance Grant (SchoolBAG) scheme. Part of the Group’s community care and responsibility programme, the SchoolBAG scheme was aimed at helping students from low-income families subsidise the cost of their basic education expenses, such as school textbooks, uniforms and stationery items.
Since its launch in 2001, Sembcorp Marine’s SchoolBAG programme had contributed more than $2.16 million in grants to more than 10,498 student beneficiaries. In 2010, $317,700 in SchoolBAG grants went out to 1,573 students, the highest grant amount and largest number of recipients in the history of the scheme. This is an increase of about 6.5 per cent compared to the contribution in 2009, in terms of both grant amount as well as number of recipients. The cheque presentation ceremony was graced by Mr Lim Boon Heng, Minister, Prime Minister’s Office, and Member of Parliament for Jurong GRC.
Bursary awards totaling $35,350 were also presented by Sembawang Shipyard to the children of employees in need of financial assistance to motivate them to achieve good academic performance.
Community Care and DevelopmentReflecting its commitment to the community, Sembcorp Marine and its yards supported various charitable organisations and projects, including the President’s Challenge, Singapore Police Force Charity Drive, Bernhard
Volunteers from Sembawang Shipyard celebrating Christmas with children from Students Care Service (Yishun Centre).

Schulte Shipmanagement Charity in aid of the Children’s Cancer Foundation and the Ong Teng Cheong Institute. In addition, the Group also sponsored the Assumption Pathway School’s Charity Golf Tournament, an event to raise funds to further upgrade the school’s facilities and holistic education curriculum.
The Group’s yards and their employees gave generously to the cause of charity during the year. At Sembawang Shipyard, employees’ charitable donations to the Community Chest of Singapore were matched dollar-for-dollar.
Sembcorp Marine’s yards were also active in their community care and volunteerism efforts. Employees from Jurong Shipyard extended their friendship and care to the elderly residents of Bethany Nursing Home during festive occasions such as the Moon Cake Festival.
Sembawang Shipyard continued to be a stalwart supporter of the Students Care Service (Yishun Centre) through its contributions and volunteer assistance. A key event sponsored by the yard was the EMIT! (Excite, Motivate, Interest and Transmit) Finale Carnival, which was launched in conjunction with the inaugural Youth Olympic Games with the aim of engaging youths in healthy activities. Employees from the yard also helped to organise various events held by the Centre, such as the annual Christmas party and other festive celebrations.
In addition, Sembawang Shipyard supported the Centre’s relief efforts to help victims of the Haiti earthquake which struck last year. To raise funds, students and volunteers led a donation drive and sold handmade handicrafts to various organisations. The funds were then distributed to affected families in Haiti through the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies.
National Unity and Community BondingShowcasing its steadfast commitment towards the nation, Sembcorp Marine continued to sponsor and participate in Singapore’s National Day Parade (NDP) 2010, which was held for the first time at the Padang since 2005.
More than 90 staff from across the Group and its yards volunteered their time and effort to represent Sembcorp Marine in the parade’s Economic Defence
marching contingent. The participants also took part in a city march-past, which brought them past iconic landmarks and spectators beyond the parade grounds.
Support for the ArtsSembcorp Marine demonstrated its support for the arts and Brazilian culture by sponsoring the one-night only ‘Beija Flor Escola de Samba: Best of Rio Carnival’ performance on 8 September at the Esplanade Concert Hall. Performing for the first time in Asia, the performance brought the carnival spirit to life with a vivacious showcase of Brazilian music and dance.

The Group also backed the Marsiling Chinese Orchestra’s efforts to promote Chinese orchestra education and appreciation within the community. The Orchestra held the ‘Ling III – Time Rhapsody’ Concert on 14 January 2011, graced by Senior Minister Mr Goh Chok Tong, at the Singapore Conference Hall. The Group also lent support to the National Museum of Singapore’s ‘A Night in Pompeii’ gala event during the year.
Industry OutreachSembcorp Marine and its yards embarked on a number of initiatives to strengthen ties with other industry partners. Apart from participating in leading marine and offshore engineering tradeshows, the Group also channelled its efforts to promote the development of the industry in Singapore.
Together with its subsidiaries, Sembcorp Marine showcased its capabilities at several key overseas events in 2010, including the Posidonia tradeshow in Greece, the Offshore Technology Conference and the Seatrade Cruise Convention in the United States as well as the Shipbuilding, Machinery & Marine Technology International Trade Fair in Germany.
To foster closer collaboration between Asia and Latin America, Sembcorp Marine also gave its full support to International Enterprise Singapore through its platinum sponsorship of the 7th LatinAsia Business Forum on 29 September. Officiated by Guest-of-Honour Mr Lim Hng Kiang, Minister for Trade and Industry, the event sought to provide delegates from Latin America and Asia opportunities to explore potential areas of collaboration across varied industry sectors.
To further raise the profile of Singapore’s maritime industry, the Group was a key sponsor of the first-ever Amazing Maritime Race, an island-wide competition jointly organised by the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore, the Singapore Maritime Foundation, the Association of Singapore Marine Industries and the Singapore Shipping Association. Some 144 Sembcorp Marine employees joined other participants in the four-hour race to solve fun and interactive puzzles on the country’s maritime culture and heritage.
Sembcorp Marine was also a major sponsor of the Third Asian Maritime Law Conference, which was organised by the Maritime Law Association of Singapore to promote maritime law awareness among industry professionals.

Caring for the Environment
Green Commitment High standards of environmental management continued to be upheld by Sembcorp Marine and its yards. Certified to the internationally recognised ISO 14001:2004 standard, Sembawang Shipyard and SMOE maintained stringent systems and processes to minimise the environmental impact of their operations. During the year, SMOE was successfully re-certified by Det Norske Veritas, a leading certification body.
Green MindsetTo foster a green mindset among employees, Sembcorp Marine and its yards held regular briefings during the year to encourage recycling and resource conservation. Housekeeping efforts were also carried out by the yards on a regular basis to ensure that work areas were clean and tidy. The opening of a garden within Sembawang Shipyard helped to further heighten green awareness and promote environmental care.
To engage the young generation in protecting the environment, Sembawang Shipyard continued to organise the Green Wave Environmental Care Competition for Schools in collaboration with its alliance partners Shell International Trading and Shipping Company and BP Shipping. Now in its ninth year, the competition achieved a breakthrough level of participation, with a record 312 project entries involving more than 1,250 students from primary and secondary schools, junior colleges, the Institute of Technical Education and tertiary institutions. This translated to a more than two-fold increase in participation rate since the competition’s first year in 2003.
To build a sustainable and greener future, Sembcorp Marine continued its efforts to protect and conserve the environment. Besides adopting green practices, the Group also reached out to promote environmental care and protection among employees, stakeholders and the community.

Out of the entries received, 49 teams were honoured for their outstanding green projects at an awards presentation ceremony, with winners receiving attractive cash prizes of up to $10,000. Winners of the junior college and tertiary categories were also offered development attachments at Shell, BP and their affliate companies as well as Sembawang Shipyard.
JPL Industries, a Sembcorp Marine subsidiary, demonstrated its commitment to the environment through its continued sponsorship of the Semakau Run 2010 held at Singapore’s only landfill island. Jointly organised by National Environment Agency and MediaCorp, the event was held in support of several beneficiaries, including the Singapore Environment Council, Singapore Institute of International Affairs, Nature Society (Singapore), HCA Hospice Care and Rainbow Centre (Yishun Park School).
Eco-friendly OperationsSembcorp Marine’s yards continued to adopt eco-friendly practices in their operations in the areas of water management, energy conservation and waste management.
The Group worked at reducing water wastage across its yards. Wherever possible, water-saving devices like thimbles and flow regulators were installed. NEWater continued to be used in the yards for cooling towers and toilet flushing systems as well as the washing of ship hulls and tanks.
Sembcorp Marine remained committed to reducing its carbon footprint generated from energy consumption. Automatic timers were installed in the yards to regulate power usage for utilities and equipment. Energy-efficient lighting systems and air-conditioning units were also used for conserving power. At Jurong Shipyard, the workshops were further fitted with transparent roofing sheets to maximise the use of natural lighting.
During the year, Sembcorp Marine took a step further to minimise paper-based waste by launching its first eco-friendly annual report. The 2009 annual report and other shareholders’ circulars were delivered via CDs to recipients. As the initiative was well received, the Group continued to adopt this green approach in the distribution of its 2010 annual report.
Green FutureSembcorp Marine’s Integrated New Yard facility currently under construction at Tuas View Extension was designed with environmentally friendly features. In addition to meeting the Green Mark certification, the workshops in the new yard would incorporate energy-monitoring systems to regulate and fine-tune electricity usage, resulting in cost savings and energy efficiencies.

Except as disclosed under the “Share-based Incentive Plans” section of this report, neither at the end of, nor at any time during the financial year, was the Company a party to any arrangement whose objects are, or one of whose objects is, to enable the directors of the Company to acquire benefits by means of the acquisition of shares in or debentures of the Company or any other body corporate.
Since the end of the last financial year, no director has received or become entitled to receive, a benefit by reason of a contract made by the Company or a related corporation with the director, or with a firm of which he is a member, or with a company in which he has a substantial financial interest, except:

(b) As disclosed in Note 38 to the financial statements on the key management personnel compensation; and
(c) Certain Directors who have employment relationships with the holding company and received remuneration in those capacities.
Share-based Incentive Plans
The Company’s Share Option Plan, Performance Share Plan and Restricted Stock Plan (collectively, Share Plans) were approved and adopted by the shareholders at an Extraordinary General Meeting of the Company held on 31 May 2000 and modified at the Extraordinary General Meeting of the Company held on 21 April 2005.
The Executive Resource and Compensation Committee (the Committee) of the Company has been designated as the Committee responsible for the administration of the Share Plans. The Committee comprises the following members, all of whom are directors:
Goh Geok Ling ChairmanTan Pheng HockJoseph Kwok Sin Kin (Retired on 20 April 2010)Tang Kin Fei (Appointed on 20 April 2010)
The Share Option Plan and Restricted Stock Plan are the incentive schemes for directors and employees of the Company and its subsidiaries (the Group) whereas the Performance Share Plan is aimed primarily at key executives of the Group.
The Share Plans are intended to attract, retain and incentivise participants to higher standards of performance and encourage greater dedication and loyalty by enabling the Company to give recognition to past contributions and services; as well as motivating participants to contribute to the long-term prosperity of the Group.
The Share Option Plan provides the Company with means whereby non-executive directors and employees of the Group, and certain categories of persons who can make significant contributions through their close working relationship with the Group, such as employees of the Company’s Parent Group and non-executive directors and employees of the Company’s associates, are given an opportunity to participate in the equity of the Company. From 2007 onwards, no share options were granted.
From Vision to Reality 4 Sembcorp Marine Annual Report 2010

Directors’ Report
The Company designates Sembcorp Industries Ltd as the Parent Group.
During the year, the Share Plans expired and the new Share Plans comprising Performance Share Plan (SCM PSP 2010) and Restricted Stock Plan (SCM RSP 2010) (collectively referred to as the New Share Plans) were approved and adopted by the share holders at an Extraordinary General Meeting of the Company held on 20 April 2010. The Share Option Plan was not replaced. The New Share Plans are proposed to increase the Company’s flexibility and effectiveness in its continuing efforts to reward, retain and motivate employees to achieve superior performance. The New Share Plans will strengthen the Company’s competitiveness in attracting and retaining talented key senior management and senior executives. The SCM RSP 2010 is intended to apply to a broad base of senior executives as well as to the non-executive directors, while the SCM PSP 2010 is intended to apply to a select group of key senior management. Generally, it is envisaged that the range of performance targets to be set under the SCM RSP 2010 and the SCM PSP 2010 will be different, with the latter emphasising stretched or strategic targets aimed at sustaining longer term growth. The New Share Plans will provide incentives to high performing key senior management and senior executives to excel in their performance and encourage greater dedication and loyalty to the Company. Through the New Share Plans, the Company will be able to motivate key senior management and senior executives to continue to strive for the Group’s long-term shareholder value. In addition, the New Share Plans aim to foster a greater ownership culture within the Group which align the interests of Participants with the interests of Shareholders, and to improve performance and achieve sustainable growth for the Company in the changing business environment. The New Share Plans use methods fairly common among major local and multinational companies to incentivise and motivate key senior management and senior executives to achieve pre-determined targets which create and enhance economic value for Shareholders. The Company believes that the New Share Plans will be effective tools in motivating key senior management and senior executives to strive to deliver long-term shareholder value. While the New Share Plans cater principally to Group Executives, it is recognised that there are other persons who can make significant contributions to the Group through their close working relationship with the Group. Such persons include employees of associates over which the Company has operational control. A Participant’s Awards under the New Share Plans will be determined at the sole discretion of the Committee. In considering an Award to be granted to a Participant, the Committee may take into account, inter alia, the Participant’s performance during the relevant period, and his capability, entrepreneurship, scope of responsibility and skill set. As at 31 December 2010, no new shares were granted under the New Share Plans. All shares granted during the year were awarded under the Share Plans approved and adopted by the shareholders at an Extraordinary General Meeting of the Company held on 31 May 2000. Other information regarding the Share Plan is as follows:

Sembcorp Marine Performance Share Plan
Under the Performance Share Plan, the awards granted conditional on performance targets are set based on medium-term corporate objectives at the start of each rolling three-year performance qualifying period. A specific number of performance shares shall be awarded at the end of the three-year performance cycle depending on the extent of the achievement of the performance conditions established at the onset.
The performance levels were calibrated based on Wealth Added and Total Shareholder Return. A minimum threshold performance must be achieved to trigger an achievement factor, which in turn determines the number of shares to be finally awarded. Performance shares to be delivered will range between 0% to 150% of the conditional performance shares awarded.

Directors’ Report
Sembcorp Marine Performance Share Plan (cont’d)
From 2009 onwards, the Performance Share Plan was enhanced to create alignment between senior management and other employees at the time of vesting by introducing a plan trigger. Under this trigger mechanism, the performance shares for the performance period 2010 to 2012 will be vested to the senior management participants only if the restricted shares for the performance period 2011 to 2012 are vested, subject to the achievement of the performance conditions for the respective performance periods.
Senior management participants are required to hold a minimum percentage of the shares released to them under the Performance Share Plan to maintain a beneficial ownership stake in the Group, for the duration of their employment or tenure with the Group. A maximum cap is set based on a multiple of the individual participant’s Annual Base Salary. Any excess can be sold off, but in the event of a shortfall, they have a two calendar year period to meet the minimum percentage requirement.
The details of performance shares of the Company awarded since commencement of the Performance Share Plan up to 31 December 2010 were as follows:

Sembcorp Marine Restricted Stock Plan
Under the Restricted Stock Plan, the awards granted conditional on performance targets are set based on corporate objectives at the start of each rolling two-year performance qualifying period. The performance criteria for the restricted shares are calibrated based on Return on Equity and Earnings Before Interest and Taxes for awards granted in 2010.
A minimum threshold performance must be achieved to trigger an achievement factor, which in turn determines the number of shares to be finally awarded. Based on the criteria, restricted shares to be delivered will range from 0% to 150% of the conditional restricted shares awarded.
The managerial participants of the Group will be awarded restricted shares under the Restricted Stock Plan, while the non-managerial participants of the Group will receive their awards in an equivalent cash value. This cash-settled notional restricted shares award for non-managerial participants is known as the Sembcorp Marine Challenge Bonus.
A specific number of restricted shares shall be awarded at the end of the two-year performance cycle depending on the extent of the achievement of the performance conditions established at the onset. There is a further vesting of three years after the performance period, during which one-third of the awarded shares are released each year to managerial participants. Non-managerial participants will receive the equivalent in cash at the end of the two-year performance cycle, with no further vesting conditions.
Senior management participants are required to hold a minimum percentage of the shares released to them under the Restricted Stock Plan to maintain a beneficial ownership stake in the Group, for the duration of their employment or tenure with the Group. A maximum cap is set based on a multiple of the individual participant’s Annual Base Salary. Any excess can be sold off, but in the event of a shortfall, they have a two calendar year period to meet the minimum percentage requirement.
There is no performance condition for the conditional award of the restricted shares granted to non-executive directors in 2010. Shares granted will be vested 1 year from the date of grant.

Independent Auditors’ Report
Report on the financial statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Sembcorp Marine Ltd (the Company) and its subsidiaries (the Group), which comprise the balance sheets of the Group and the Company as at 31 December 2010, the income statements, statements of comprehensive income and statements of changes in equity of the Group and of the Company, and statement of cash flows of the Group for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information, as set out on pages 121 to 195.
Management’s responsibility for the financial statements
Management is responsible for the preparation of financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with the provisions of the Singapore Companies Act, Chapter 50 (the Act) and Singapore Financial Reporting Standards, and for devising and maintaining a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide a reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorised use or disposition; and transactions are properly authorised and that they are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of true and fair profit and loss accounts and balance sheets and to maintain accountability of assets.
Auditors’ responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Singapore Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

They are prepared on the historical cost basis except where otherwise described in the accounting policies below.
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with FRS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.
Information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgements in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amount recognised in the financial statements are discussed in Note 42.
With effect from 1 January 2010, the Group adopted the new or amended FRS that are mandatory for application from that date. Changes to the Group’s accounting policies have been made as required, in accordance with the transitional provisions in the respective FRS.
The adoption of these new or amended FRS did not result in substantial changes to the Group’s and Company’s accounting policies and had no material effect on the amounts reported for the current or prior financial years except as disclosed below. The accounting policies used by the Group have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these financial statements.
(i) FRS 103 (revised 2009) Business Combinations
The Group applies FRS 103 (revised 2009) Business Combinations, which became effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2009. The revised accounting policy on business combinations is set out in Note 3.1.
As the changes have been implemented prospectively, no adjustments were necessary to any of the amounts previously recognised in the financial statements.

(ii) FRS 27 (revised 2009) Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements
The Group applies FRS 27 (revised 2009) Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements, which became effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 July 2009. The revisions to FRS 27 principally changed the accounting for acquisitions of non-controlling interests. The revised accounting policies on changes in ownership interest that results in a loss of control and the accounting policy on changes in ownership interests that do not result in loss of control are set out in Note 3.1.
As the changes have been implemented prospectively, no adjustments were necessary to any of the amounts previously recognised in the financial statements and this has no impact to earnings per share.
3 Significant accounting policies
3.1 Basis of Consolidation
Business combinations
Acquisitions on or after 1 January 2010
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method as at the acquisition date, which is the date on which control is transferred to the Group. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. In assessing control, the Group takes into consideration potential voting rights that are currently exercisable.
The consideration transferred does not include amounts related to the settlement of pre-existing relationships. Such amounts are generally recognised in the income statement.
Costs related to the acquisition, other than those associated with the issue of debt or equity securities, that the Group incurs in connection with a business combination are expensed as incurred.
Any contingent consideration payable is recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. If the contingent consideration is classified as equity, it is not remeasured and settlement is accounted for within equity. Otherwise, subsequent changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration are recognised in the income statement.
Acquisitions prior to 1 January 2010
All business combinations are accounted for using the purchase method. Under the purchase method, the cost of an acquisition is measured at the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange, plus costs directly attributable to the acquisition.
Acquisition of non-controlling interests
Acquisitions of non-controlling interests are accounted for as transactions with owners in their capacity as owners and therefore no goodwill is recognised as a result of such transactions. The adjustments to non-controlling interests are based on a proportionate amount of the fair value of net assets of the subsidiary. Prior to 1 January 2010, goodwill was recognised on the acquisition of non-controlling interests in a subsidiary, which represented the excess of the cost of the additional investment over the carrying amount of the interest in the net assets acquired at the date of the transaction.
Notes to the Financial StatementsYear ended 31 December 2010
134
Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are those companies that are controlled by the Group. Control exists when the Group has the power, directly or indirectly, to govern the financial and operating policies of a company so as to obtain benefits from its activities.
The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.
Non-controlling interest are that part of the net results of operations and of net assets of a subsidiary attributable to the interests which are not owned directly or indirectly by the equity holders of the Company. They are shown separately in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and balance sheet. Total comprehensive income or losses is attributed to the non-controlling interests based on their respective interests in a subsidiary even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.
Loss of control
Upon the loss of control, the Group derecognises the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary, any non-controlling interests and the other components of equity related to the subsidiary. Any surplus or deficit arising on the loss of control is recognised in the income statement. If the Group retains any interest in the previous subsidiary, then such interest is measured at fair value at the date that control is lost. Subsequently it is accounted for as an equity-accounted investee or as an available-for-sale financial asset depending on the level of influence retained.
Associates
Associates are companies in which the Group has significant influence, but not control, over the financial and operating policies.
The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are presently exercisable or presently convertible are considered when assessing whether the Group has significant influence over another company. Significant influence is presumed to exist when the Group holds between 20% and 50% of the voting power of another company.
In the Group’s financial statements, they are accounted for using the equity method of accounting from the date that significant influence commences until the date that significant influence ceases. When the Group’s share of losses exceeds the carrying amount of the associate (including any other unsecured receivables, that in substance, form part of the Group’s net investment in the associate), recognition of further losses is discontinued unless the Group has incurred obligations or made payments on its behalf to satisfy obligations of the associate that the Group has guaranteed or otherwise committed on behalf of.
Where the audited financial statements are not available, the share of results is arrived at from unaudited management financial statements made up mainly to the end of the accounting year to 31 December.
Joint ventures
Joint ventures are those enterprises whose activities the Group has joint control over, established by contractual agreement and requiring unanimous consent for strategic financial operating decisions.
The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are presently exercisable or presently convertible are considered when assessing whether the Group has joint control over the enterprise.
For incorporated joint ventures, the Group accounts for the joint ventures in the same manner as associates, from the date joint control commences until the date that the joint control ceases.
Notes to the Financial StatementsYear ended 31 December 2010
From Vision to Reality 4 Sembcorp Marine Annual Report 2010
135
For unincorporated joint ventures, the proportionate share in the unincorporated joint ventures’ individual income, expenses, assets and liabilities are included in financial statements of the Group with items of a similar nature on a line-by-line basis.
Where the audited financial statements are not available, the share of results is arrived from unaudited management financial statements made up mainly to the end of the accounting year to 31 December.
Associates and joint ventures in the Company’s financial statements
Investments in associates and joint ventures are stated in the Company’s balance sheet at cost less impairment losses.
The results of the associates and joint ventures are included in the Company’s income statement to the extent of dividends received and receivable, provided the Company’s right to receive the dividend is established before the balance sheet date.
Transactions eliminated on consolidation
All intra-group transactions, balances and unrealised gains or losses are eliminated on consolidation. Unrealised gains resulting from transactions with associates and joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the enterprise. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.
Accounting policies of subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures
Where necessary, accounting policies for subsidiaries and material associates and joint ventures have been adjusted on consolidation to be consistent with the policies adopted by the Group.
3.2 Foreign currencies
Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of each company in the Group are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the company operates (the functional currency).
Foreign currency transactions and balances
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at foreign exchange rates ruling at the dates of the transactions. At each reporting date:
• Foreign currency monetary items are translated into the functional currency using foreign exchange rates ruling at that date.
• Non-monetary assets and liabilities measured at historical cost in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency using foreign exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.
• Non-monetary assets and liabilities measured at fair value in foreign currencies are translated into the functional currency at foreign exchange rates ruling at the dates the fair value was determined.
Foreign exchange differences arising from the settlement or from translation of monetary items are recognised in the income statement except for exchange differences arising from monetary items that form part of the Group’s net investment in foreign subsidiaries, which are recognised in the Company’s income statement and reclassified to foreign currency translation reserve in the consolidated financial statements. Such exchange differences are released to the income statement upon disposal of the investment as part of the gain or loss on disposal.
Notes to the Financial StatementsYear ended 31 December 2010
136
Foreign exchange differences arising from non-monetary items are recognised directly in equity when non-monetary items’ gains or losses are recognised directly in equity. Conversely, when non-monetary items’ gains or losses are recognised directly in the income statement, foreign exchange differences arising from these items are recognised directly in the income statement.
Foreign operations
The results and financial positions of foreign operations (none of which have the currency of a hyperinflationary economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
• Assets and liabilities are translated at foreign exchange rates ruling at the date of the balance sheet.
• Revenues and expenses are translated at average foreign exchange rates.
• All resulting foreign exchange differences are taken to the foreign currency translation reserve.
On disposal, accumulated foreign currency translation differences are recognised in the consolidated income statement as part of the gain or loss on disposal.
Foreign currency differences are recognised in other comprehensive income, and presented in the foreign currency translation reserve (translation reserve) in equity. However, if the operation is a non-wholly-owned subsidiary, then the relevant proportionate share of the translation difference is allocated to the non-controlling interests. When a foreign operation is disposed of such that control, significant influence or joint control is lost, the cumulative amount in the translation reserve related to that foreign operation is reclassified to the income statement as part of the gain or loss on disposal. When the Group disposes of only part of its interest in a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation while retaining control, the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is reattributed to non-controlling interests. When the Group disposes of only part of its investment in an associate or joint venture that includes a foreign operation while retaining significant influence or joint control, the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is reclassified to the income statement.
3.3 Property, plant and equipment
Owned assets
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost or valuation less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset.
The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials, direct labour and an appropriate proportion of productions overheads.
Where an item of property, plant and equipment comprises major components having different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items of property, plant and equipment.
Revaluation surplus
Any increase in revaluation is credited to the revaluation reserve unless it offsets a previous decrease in values recognised in the income statement. A decrease in value is recognised in the income statement where it exceeds the increase previously recognised in the valuation surplus of the same asset.
Notes to the Financial StatementsYear ended 31 December 2010
From Vision to Reality 4 Sembcorp Marine Annual Report 2010
137
Subsequent expenditure
Subsequent expenditure relating to property, plant and equipment that has already been recognised is added to the carrying amount of the asset when it is probable that future economic benefits, in excess of the originally assessed standard of performance of the existing asset, will flow to the Group. All other subsequent expenditure is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.
Disposals
Gains or losses arising from the retirement or disposal of property, plant and equipment are determined as the difference between the estimated net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the income statement on the date of retirement or disposal.
For property, plant and equipment carried at revalued amounts, any related revaluation surplus is transferred from the revaluation reserve to revenue reserve and is not taken into account in arriving at the gain or loss on disposal.
Provision for restoration costs
A provision is recognised for the costs expected to be incurred to dismantle, remove and restore the asset upon expiry of the lease agreement. The estimated costs form part of the cost of the property, plant and equipment and are depreciated over the useful life of the asset.
Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate the cost less its residual values so as to write off items of property, plant and equipment over their estimated useful lives. Each part of an item of property, plant and equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of an item is depreciated separately. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Leasehold land 45 years or lease period of 3 to 30 yearsBuildings 45 years or lease period of 3 to 30 yearsQuays and dry docks 60 years or lease period of 6 to 22 yearsPlant, machinery and tools 3 to 15 yearsMotor vessels, launches, cranes and floating docks 3 to 20 yearsMotor vehicles 3 to 5 yearsFurniture and office equipment 3 to 5 yearsUtilities and fittings 30 yearsComputer equipment 1 to 5 years
The assets’ depreciation method, useful lives and residual values are reviewed, if not insignificant, annually, and adjusted if appropriate.
No depreciation is provided on freehold land or construction-in-progress. Fully depreciated assets are retained in the financial statements until they are no longer in use and no further charge for depreciation is made in respect of these assets.
Investment properties
Investment properties comprise significant portions of land and buildings and quays that are held for long-term rental yields or capital appreciation, or both.
Notes to the Financial StatementsYear ended 31 December 2010
138
Investment properties are initially recognised at cost and subsequently carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is recognised in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives ranging from 45 to 60 years or the lease period of 15 to 16 years. The assets’ depreciation method, useful lives and residual values of investment properties are reviewed, if not insignificant, annually and adjusted if appropriate.
Investment properties are subject to renovations or improvements at regular intervals. The cost of major renovations and improvements is capitalised as additions and the carrying amounts of the replaced components are written off to the income statement. The cost of maintenance, repairs and minor improvements is charged to the income statement when incurred.
On disposal of an investment property, the difference between the estimated net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset is recognised in the income statement.
3.4 Intangible assets
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of:• the fair value of the consideration transferred; plus• the recognised amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree; plus if the business combination is achieved
in stages, the fair value of the existing equity interest in the acquire; less• the net amount recognised (generally fair value) of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
When the excess is negative, a bargain purchase gain is recognised immediately in the income statement.
Goodwill is stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill on acquisition of associates and joint ventures is included in investments in associates and joint ventures, respectively.
Acquisition of non-controlling interest
Goodwill arising from the acquisition of non-controlling interest in a subsidiary represents the excess of the cost of the additional investment over the carrying amount of the net assets acquired at the date of exchange.
Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis in accordance with Note 3.11.
Negative goodwill
Negative goodwill arising on acquisition represents the excess of the net fair value of the Group’s share of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities acquired over the cost of acquisition and are credited to income statement in the period of acquisition.
Fair values assigned to the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities can be estimated provisionally in the initial accounting for a business combination. The Group will recognise adjustments to those provisional fair values upon finalising the fair values within twelve months from the acquisition date (the measurement period). The corresponding adjustment, if any, will be made by restating the previously reported goodwill or negative goodwill. After the measurement period, any adjustments to the goodwill will be recognised in the income statement in the year in which the adjustments are identified.

139
3.5 Financial assets
The Group initially recognises loans and receivables and deposits on the date that they are originated. All other financial assets (including assets designated at fair value through profit or loss) are recognised initially on the trade date at which the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
The Group derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred. Any interest in transferred financial assets that is created or retained by the Group is recognised as a separate asset or liability.
The Group classifies its financial assets in the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, or available-for-sale financial assets, as appropriate.
The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets are acquired. Management determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition and re-evaluates this designation at every reporting date. The designation of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss is irrevocable.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
A financial asset is classified in this category if the Group manages such assets and makes purchase and sale decisions based on their fair value. Derivative financial instruments are also classified as ‘financial assets at fair value through profit or loss’ unless they are designated as effective hedging instruments. Upon initial recognition, attributable transaction costs are recognised in the income statement when incurred. Assets in this category are classified as current assets and are stated at fair value, with any resultant gain or loss recognised in the income statement.
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They arise when the Group provides money, goods or services directly to a debtor with no intention of trading the receivable. They are included in current assets, except for maturities greater than 12 months after the balance sheet date for which they are classified as non-current assets. Loans and receivables are recognised initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less impairment losses. Receivables with a short duration are not discounted.
Available-for-sale financial assets
Other financial assets held by the Group that are either designated in this category or not classified in any other category, are classified as being available-for-sale. They are included in non-current assets unless management intends to dispose of the investment within 12 months of the balance sheet date. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at fair value and changes therein, other than impairment losses (see Note 3.6) and foreign currency differences on available-for-sale monetary items (see Note 3.2), are recognised in other comprehensive income and presented within equity in the fair value reserve. When an investment is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss in other comprehensive income is transferred to income statement.
Financial assets classified as available-for-sale are recognised by the Group on the date it receives the financial asset and derecognised on the date it delivers the financial asset. Other financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the investments have expired or all risks and rewards of ownership have been substantially transferred.
Notes to the Financial StatementsYear ended 31 December 2010

3.6 Impairment of financial assets
A financial asset not carried at fair value through profit or loss is assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any objective evidence that it is impaired. A financial asset is considered impaired if objective evidence indicates that a loss event has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset, and that the loss event had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flow of that asset that can be estimated reliably.
Objective evidence that financial assets (including equity securities) are impaired can include default or delinquency by a debtor, restructuring of an amount due to the Group on terms that the Group would not consider otherwise, indications that a debtor or issuer will enter bankruptcy, adverse changes in the payment status of borrowers or issuers in the Group, economic conditions that correlate with defaults or the disappearance of an active market for a security. In addition, for an investment in an equity security, a significant or prolonged decline in its fair value below its cost are considerations to determine whether there is objective evidence of impairment.
The Group considers evidence of impairment for receivables at both a specific asset and collective level. All individually significant receivables are assessed for specific impairment. All individually significant receivables found not to be specifically impaired are then collectively assessed for any impairment that has been incurred but not yet identified. Receivables that are not individually significant are collectively assessed for impairment by grouping together receivables with similar risk characteristics.
In assessing collective impairment, the Group uses historical trends of the probability of default, timing of recoveries and the amount of loss incurred, adjusted for management’s judgement as to whether current economic and credit conditions are such that the actual losses are likely to be greater or less than suggested by historical trends.
An impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at amortised cost is calculated as the difference between its carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate. Losses are recognised in income statement and reflected in an allowance against receivables. Interest on the impaired asset continues to be recognised through the unwinding of the discount. When a subsequent event causes the amount of impairment loss to decrease, the decrease in impairment loss is reversed through income statement.
Impairment losses on available-for-sale investment securities are recognised by transferring the cumulative loss that has been recognised in other comprehensive income, and presented in the fair value reserve in equity, to income statement. The cumulative loss that is removed from other comprehensive income and recognised in income statement is the difference between the acquisition cost, net of any principal payment and amortisation, and the current fair value, less any impairment loss previously recognised in income statement. Changes in impairment attributable to time value are reflected as a component of interest income. Any subsequent recovery in the fair value of an impaired available-for-sale equity security is recognised in other comprehensive income and presented within equity in the fair value reserve.
3.7 Derivative financial instruments
Derivative financial instruments are used to manage exposures to foreign exchange and interest rate risks arising from operational, financing and investment activities. Derivative financial instruments are not used for trading purposes. However, derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting are accounted for as trading instruments.
Derivative financial instruments are recognised initially at fair value; attributable transaction costs are recognised in the income statement as incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivative financial instruments are remeasured at fair value. The gain or loss on remeasurement to fair value is recognised immediately in the income statement. However, where derivatives qualify for hedge accounting, recognition of any resultant gain or loss depends on the nature of the item being hedged as described below:
Notes to the Financial StatementsYear ended 31 December 2010
From Vision to Reality 4 Sembcorp Marine Annual Report 2010
141
Fair value hedges
Where a derivative financial instrument hedges the changes in fair value of a recognised asset or liability or an unrecognised firm commitment (or an identified portion of such asset, liability or firm commitment), any gain or loss on the hedging instrument is recognised in the income statement. The hedged item is also stated at fair value in respect of the risk being hedged, with any gain or loss recognised in the income statement.
Cash flow hedges
Where a derivative financial instrument is designated as a hedge of the variability in cash flows attributable to a particular risk associated with a recognised asset or liability, or a highly probable forecast transaction, the effective part of any gain or loss on the derivative financial instrument is recognised directly in equity. The ineffective part of any gain or loss is recognised immediately in the income statement. When the forecast transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or non-financial liability, or the forecast transaction for a non-financial asset or non-financial liability becomes a firm commitment for which fair value hedge accounting is applied, the associated cumulative gain or loss is removed from equity and included in the initial cost or other carrying amount of the non-financial asset or liability. If a hedge of a forecast transaction subsequently results in the recognition of a financial asset or financial liability, the associated gains and losses that were recognised directly in equity are reclassified into the income statement in the same period or periods during which the asset acquired or liability assumed affects the income statement.
When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, or the entity revokes designation of the hedge relationship but the hedged forecast transaction is still expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss at that point remains in equity and is recognised in accordance with the above policy when the transaction occurs. If the hedged transaction is no longer expected to take place, the cumulative unrealised gain or loss recognised in equity is recognised immediately in the income statement.
3.8 Inventories and work-in-progress
Inventories consist mainly of steel and other materials used for ship and rig repair, building and conversion and are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is calculated using the weighted average formula and comprises all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition.
Work-in-progress represents the gross unbilled amount expected to be collected from customers for contract work completed to date. This comprises mainly uncompleted ship and rig repair, building and conversion jobs. It is measured at cost plus profit recognised to date less progress billings and recognised losses. Cost includes materials, direct labour, sub-contractors’ costs and an appropriate allocation of fixed and variable production overheads. Allowance is made for anticipated losses, if any, on work-in-progress when the possibility of loss is ascertained.
Work-in-progress is presented as part of inventories in the balance sheet. If payments received from customers exceed the profit recognised, the difference is presented as progress billings in excess of work-in-progress on the balance sheet.
Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
When inventories are sold, the carrying amount of those inventories is recognised as an expense in the period in which the related revenue is recognised.
The amount of any allowance for write-down of inventories to net realisable value and all losses of inventories are recognised as an expense in the period the write-down or loss occurs. The amount of any reversal of any allowance for write-down of inventories, arising from an increase in net realisable value, is recognised as a reduction in the amount of inventories recognised as an expense in the period in which the reversal occurs.
Notes to the Financial StatementsYear ended 31 December 2010

3.9 Government grants
Government grants
Government grants are recognised initially as deferred income at fair value when there is reasonable assurance that they will be received and the Group will comply with the conditions associated with the grant. Grants that compensate the Group, for expenses incurred are recognised in income statement as other income on a systematic basis in the same periods in which the expenses are recognised. Grants that compensate the Group for the cost of an asset are recognised in income statement on a systematic basis over the useful life of the asset.
Jobs Credit Scheme
Cash grants received from the government in relation to the Jobs Credit Scheme are recognised upon receipt. Such grants are provided to defray the wage costs incurred by the Company and are offset against staff costs in the financial statements.
3.10 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and bank deposits.
3.11 Impairment of non-financial assets
The carrying amounts of the Group’s non-financial assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the assets’ recoverable amounts are estimated. For goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite useful lives or that are not yet available for use, the recoverable amount is estimated each year at the same time.
Calculation of recoverable amount
The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or cash-generating unit. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets that cannot be tested individually are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generate cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or groups of assets (the cash-generating unit, or CGU). Subject to an operating segment ceiling test, for the purposes of goodwill impairment testing, CGUs to which goodwill has been allocated are aggregated so that the level at which impairment is tested reflects the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal reporting purposes. Goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to groups of CGUs that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.
An impairment loss is recognised whenever the carrying amount of an asset or its CGU exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in the income statement. Impairment losses recognised in respect of CGUs are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to cash-generating units (group of units) and then, to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit (group of units) on a pro rata basis.
Notes to the Financial StatementsYear ended 31 December 2010
From Vision to Reality 4 Sembcorp Marine Annual Report 2010
143
Reversals of impairment
An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. In respect of other assets, impairment losses recognised in prior periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the assets’ carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.
Goodwill that forms part of the carrying amount of an investment in an associate is not recognised separately, and therefore is not tested for impairment separately. Instead, the entire amount of the investment in an associate is tested for impairment as a single asset when there is objective evidence that the investment in an associate may be impaired.
3.12 Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities include trade payables on normal trade terms, other payables, amounts due to subsidiaries, associates, related companies, joint ventures and related parties, and interest-bearing liabilities.
Financial liabilities are recognised on the balance sheet when, and only when, the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. Financial liabilities are initially recognised at fair value of consideration received less directly attributable transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Gains and losses are recognised in the income statement when the liabilities are derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or has expired.
3.13 Employee benefits
Defined contribution plans
A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed contributions into a separate entity and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts.
Obligations for contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as an expense in the income statement as incurred.
Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the related employment service is provided.
The amount expected to be paid are accrued when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.
Staff retirement benefits
Retirement benefits payable to certain categories of employees upon their retirement are provided for in the financial statements based on their entitlement under the staff benefit plan or, in respect of unionised employees who joined on or before 31 December 1988, based on an agreement with the union.
The Group’s net obligation in respect of retirement benefits is the amount of future benefits that employees have earned in return for their service in current and prior periods. The obligation is calculated using projected salary increases and is discounted to its present value, and the fair value of any related assets is deducted.

Equity and equity-related compensation benefits
Share Option Plan
The share option programme allows the Group’s employees to acquire shares of the Group companies. The fair value is measured at grant date and spread over the period during which the employees become unconditionally entitled to the options (the vesting period). The fair value of options granted is recognised as an employee expense with a corresponding increase in equity using the binomial option-pricing model. At each balance sheet date, the Group revises its estimates of the number of options that are expected to become exercisable. It recognises the impact of the revision of original estimates in employee expense and in a corresponding adjustment to equity over the remaining vesting period.
The proceeds received net of any directly attributable transaction costs are credited to reserve for own shares when the options are exercised and treasury shares are issued, or credited to share capital when new shares are issued.
Performance Share Plan
The fair value of equity-related compensation is measured using the Monte Carlo simulation method as at the date of the grant. The method involves projecting future outcomes using statistical distributions of key random variables including share prices and volatility of returns.
In estimating the fair value of the compensation cost, market based performance conditions are taken into account. Therefore, for performance share grants with market-based performance conditions, the compensation cost is charged to the income statement with a corresponding increase in equity on a basis that fairly reflects the manner in which the benefits will accrue to the employee under the plan over the service period to which the performance period relates, irrespective of whether this performance condition is satisfied.
Restricted Stock Plan
Similar to the Performance Share Plan, the fair value of equity-related compensation is measured using the Monte Carlo simulation method as at the date of the grant. The method involves projecting future outcomes using statistical distributions of key random variables including share prices and the volatility of returns. This model takes into the account the probability of achieving the performance conditions in the future.
The fair value of the compensation cost is measured at grant date and spread over the service period to which the performance criteria relates and the period during which the employees become unconditionally entitled to the shares. The compensation cost is charged to the income statement with a corresponding increase in equity on a basis that fairly reflects the manner in which the benefits will accrue irrespective of whether this performance condition is satisfied.
At balance sheet date, the Group revises its estimates of the number of performance-based restricted stocks that the employees are expected to receive based on the achieving of non-market performance conditions and the number of shares ultimately given. It recognises the impact of the revision of the original estimates in employee expense and a corresponding adjustment to equity over the remaining vesting period.
In the Company’s separate financial statements, the fair value of options, performance shares and restricted stocks granted to employees of its subsidiaries is recognised as an increase in the cost of the Company’s investment in subsidiaries, with a corresponding increase in equity over the vesting period.

Cash-related compensation benefits
Sembcorp Marine Challenge Bonus
The Group recognises a liability and an expense for bonuses and profit-sharing, based on a formula that takes into consideration the share price of the Company. The Group recognises a provision when it is contractually obliged to pay or where there is a past practice that has created a constructive obligation to pay.
The compensation cost is measured at the fair value of the liability at each balance sheet date and spread over the service period to which the performance criteria relates and the period during which the employees become unconditionally entitled to the bonus. The liability takes into account the probability of achieving the performance conditions in the future.
Until the liability is settled, the Group will re-measure the fair value of the liability at each balance sheet date and at the date of settlement, with any changes in fair value recognised in the income statement for the period.
3.14 Provisions
A provision is recognised when there is a legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, the obligation can be reliably estimated and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. If the effect is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.
3.15 Leases
When entities within the Group are lessors of a finance lease
Amounts due from lessees under finance leases are recorded as receivables at the amount of the Group’s net investment in the leases. Finance lease income is allocated to accounting periods so as to reflect a constant periodic rate of return on the Group’s net investment outstanding in respect of the leases.
When entities within the Group are lessees of a finance lease
Leased assets in which the Group assumes substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Upon initial recognition, property, plant and equipment acquired through finance leases are capitalised at the lower of its fair value and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Subsequent to initial recognition, the asset is accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy applicable to that asset. Leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives.
Lease payments are apportioned between finance expense and reduction of the lease liability. The finance expense is allocated to each period during the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.
When entities within the Group are lessees of an operating lease
Where the Group has the use of assets under operating leases, payments made under the leases are recognised in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives received are recognised in the income statement as an integral part of the total lease payments made.

3.16 Revenue recognition
Revenue from ship and rig repair, building, conversion and offshore are recognised on the percentage of completion method, provided the work is at least 20% completed and the outcome of the contract can be reliably estimated. The percentage of completion is assessed by reference to the ratio of costs incurred to-date to the estimated total costs for each contract, with due consideration given to the inclusion of only those costs that reflect work performed.
When an outcome of a contract cannot be estimated reliably, revenue is recognised only to the extent of contract costs incurred that can probably be recovered and contract costs are recognised as an expense in the period in which they are incurred.
Income on goods sold and services rendered
Income on goods sold is recognised when the significant risks and rewards by ownership have been transferred to the buyer. Revenue on other service work is recognised when the work is completed.
Rental income
Charter hire income is taken to the income statement on an accrual basis over the charter hire period. Rental income receivable under operating leases is recognised in the income statement on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives granted are recognised as a reduction of rental income over the lease term on a straight-line basis. Contingent rentals are recognised as income in the accounting period in which they are earned.
Dividend and interest income
Dividend income is recognised when the Group’s right to receive payment is established.
Interest income is recognised as interest accrues (using the effective interest method).
3.17 Income tax expense
Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognised in the income statement except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity, in which case it is recognised in equity.
Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.
Deferred tax is recognised using the balance sheet method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognised for the following temporary differences: the initial recognition of goodwill, the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit, and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures to the extent that it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to the temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realised simultaneously.
A deferred tax asset is recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.

3.18 Share capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of new ordinary shares and share options are deducted against the share capital account, net of any tax effects.
Where the Company’s ordinary shares are repurchased (treasury shares), the consideration paid, including any directly attributable incremental costs, net of any tax effects, is deducted from equity attributable to the Company’s equity holders and presented as “reserve for own shares” within equity, until they are cancelled, sold or reissued.
When treasury shares are cancelled, the cost of treasury shares is deducted against the share capital account, if the shares are purchased out of capital of the Company, or against the accumulated profits of the Company, if the shares are purchased out of profits of the Company.
When treasury shares are subsequently sold or reissued pursuant to the Share-based incentive Plans, the cost of the treasury shares is reversed from the reserve for own shares account and the realised gain or loss on sale or reissue, net of any directly attributable incremental transaction costs and related income tax, is recognised as a change in equity of the Company. No gain or loss is recognised in the income statement.
3.19 Finance costs
Interest expense and similar charges expensed in the income statement in the period in which they are as incurred, except to the extent that they are capitalised as being directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of an asset which necessarily takes a substantial period of time to prepare the asset for its intended use or sale are in progress. The interest component of finance lease payments is recognised in the income statement using the effective interest rate method.
3.20 Earnings per share
The Group presents basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to ordinary shareholders of the company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for own shares held. Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding, adjusted for own shares held, for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, which comprise share options granted to employees.
3.21 Financial guarantee contractsFinancial guarantee contracts are accounted for as insurance contracts and treated as contingent liabilities until such time as they become probable that the Company will be required to make a payment under the guarantee. A provision is recognised based on the Group’s estimate of the ultimate cost of settling all claims incurred but unpaid at the balance sheet date. The provision is assessed by reviewing individual claims and tested for adequacy by comparing the amount recognised and the amount that would be required to settle the guarantee contract.

Notes to the Financial StatementsYear ended 31 December 2010
(a) The carrying amounts of docks, launches, cranes and marine vessels included certain docks stated at Directors’ valuation of $25,152,000 in the year 1973. Subsequent additions to these docks were stated at cost. The revaluation was done on a one-off basis and accordingly, the transitional provision in FRS 16 – Property, Plant and Equipment was adopted to continue with its existing policy of stating these docks at cost and revalued amounts. If the following re-valued assets of the Group and Company had been included in the financial statements at cost less accumulated depreciation, the net written down value would have been:
Group and Company2010 2009$’000 $’000
Docks 3,782 5,078
The re-valued net book value of the docks is $6,390,000 (2009: $8,581,000).
(b) Others comprise motor vehicles, furniture and office equipment, utilities and fittings and computer equipment.

The age analysis of trade and other receivables past due for the Group is as follows:

68,470 2,014 87,577 3,011
There is no trade and other receivables that is past due for the Company.
The allowance account in respect of trade and other receivables is used to record impairment losses unless the Group is satisfied that no recovery of the amount owing is possible. At that point, the financial asset is considered irrecoverable and the amount charged to the allowance account is written off against the carrying amount of the impaired financial asset.
Based on historical default rates, the Group believes that the amount of impairment allowance made is adequate in respect of trade and other receivables. These receivables are mainly arising by customers that have a good collection track record with the Group.
Trade receivables that are individually determined to be impaired at the balance sheet date relate to receivables that are in significant financial difficulty and have defaulted on payments.

(1) Reserve for own shares comprises the cost of the Company’s shares held by the Company.
(2) The foreign currency translation reserve is used to record exchange differences arising from the translation of the financial statements of foreign operations whose functional currencies are different from that of the Group’s presentation currency. It is also used to record the effect of hedging net investments in foreign operations.
(3) Share-based compensation reserve represents the equity-settled share options, restricted shares and performance shares awarded to employees. The reserve is made up of the cumulative value of services received from employees relating to such awards.
(4) Fair value reserve records the cumulative fair value changes of available-for-sale financial assets until they are derecognised or impaired. The increase in the fair value reserve during the year mainly arose from fair value changes in the Group’s long term quoted investments.
(5) Hedging reserve comprises the effective portion of the cumulative net change in the fair value of cash flow hedging instruments relating to hedged transactions that have not yet occurred.
(6) Included in other capital reserves are asset revaluation reserve of $960,000 (2009: $960,000) for both the Group and Company and transfers from revenue reserve in accordance with the regulations of the foreign jurisdiction in which some of the Group’s subsidiaries and associates operate.

(b) Performance Share Plan
Under the Performance Share Plan, the awards granted conditional on performance targets are set based on medium-term corporate objectives at the start of each rolling three-year performance qualifying period. A specific number of performance shares shall be awarded at the end of the three-year performance cycle depending on the extent of the achievement of the performance conditions established at the onset.
The performance levels were calibrated based on Wealth Added and Total Shareholder Return. A minimum threshold performance must be achieved to trigger an achievement factor, which in turn determines the number of shares to be finally awarded. Performance shares to be delivered will range between 0% to 150% of the conditional performance shares awarded.
From 2009, the Performance Share Plan was enhanced to create alignment between senior management and other employees at the time of vesting by introducing a plan trigger. Under this trigger mechanism, the performance shares for the performance period 2010 to 2012 will be vested to the senior management participants only if the restricted shares for the performance period 2011 to 2012 are vested, subject to the achievement of the performance conditions for the respective performance periods.
Senior management participants are required to hold a minimum percentage of the shares released to them under the Performance Share Plan to maintain a beneficial ownership stake in the Group, for the duration of their employment or tenure with the Group. A maximum cap is set based on a multiple of the individual participant’s Annual Base Salary. Any excess can be sold off, but in the event of a shortfall, they have a two calendar year period to meet the minimum percentage requirement.
The details of performance shares of the Company awarded since commencement of the Performance Share Plan up to 31 December 2010 were as follows:

With the Committee’s approval on the achievement factor for the achievement of the performance targets for the performance period 2007 to 2009, a total of 1,215,200 (2009: 411,600) performance shares were released via the issuance of treasury shares.
In 2010, there were additional 235,200 (2009: nil) performance shares awarded for over-achievement of the performance targets.
Notes to the Financial StatementsYear ended 31 December 2010
176
The total number of performance shares in awards granted conditionally and representing 100% of targets to be achieved, but not released as at 31 December 2010, was 1,970,000 (2009: 2,315,000). Based on the multiplying factor, the actual release of the awards could range from zero to a maximum of 2,955,000 (2009: 3,472,500) performance shares.
Fair value of Performance Shares
The fair values of the performance shares are estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation methodology at the grant dates.
The fair values of performance shares granted during the year are as follows:
Date of grant 19 April 2010 13 April 2009
Fair value at measurement date $3.62 $2.28
Assumptions under the Monte Carlo model
Share price $4.36 $2.26
Expected volatility:
Sembcorp Marine Ltd 31.8% 50.3%
Morgan Stanley Capital International (“MSCI”) AC Asia Pacific excluding Japan Industrials Index
21.4% 33.9%
Correlation with MSCI 79.5% 76.2%
Risk-free interest rate 0.7% 0.7%
Expected dividend 3.4% 5.3%
The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility over the most recent period that is close to the expected life of the performance shares.
(c) Restricted Stock Plan
Under the Restricted Stock Plan, the awards granted conditional on performance targets are set based on corporate objectives at the start of each rolling two-year performance qualifying period. The performance criteria for the restricted shares are calibrated based on Return on Equity and Earnings Before Interest and Taxes for awards granted in 2010.
A minimum threshold performance must be achieved to trigger an achievement factor, which in turn determines the number of shares to be finally awarded. Based on the criteria, restricted shares to be delivered will range from 0% to 150% of the conditional restricted shares awarded.
The managerial participants of the Group will be awarded restricted shares under the Restricted Stock Plan, while the non-managerial participants of the Group will receive their awards in an equivalent cash value. This cash-settled notional restricted shares award for non-managerial participants is known as the Sembcorp Marine Challenge Bonus.
A specific number of restricted shares shall be awarded at the end of the two-year performance cycle depending on the extent of the achievement of the performance conditions established at the onset. There is a further vesting of three years after the performance period, during which one-third of the awarded shares are released each year to managerial participants. Non-managerial participants will receive the equivalent in cash at the end of the two-year performance cycle, with no further vesting conditions.
Senior management participants are required to hold a minimum percentage of the shares released to them under the Restricted Stock Plan to maintain a beneficial ownership stake in the Group, for the duration of their employment or tenure with the Group. A maximum cap is set based on a multiple of the individual participant’s Annual Base Salary. Any excess

can be sold off, but in the event of a shortfall, they have a two calendar year period to meet the minimum percentage requirement.
There is no performance condition for the conditional award of the restricted shares granted to non-executive directors in 2010. Shares granted will be vested 1 year from the date of grant.

Compensation of key management personnel
Directors of the Company, President & Chief Executive Officer/Managing Director of Jurong Shipyard Pte Ltd, Deputy President/Managing Director of Sembawang Shipyard Pte Ltd, Chief Financial Officer of the Company, Managing Director of PPL Shipyard Pte Ltd, Managing Director of SMOE Pte Ltd and Executive Director of Jurong SML Pte Ltd are considered to be key management personnel. They have the authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Group.
The key management personnel compensation is as follows:Group
2010 2009$’000 $’000
Directors’ fees and remuneration 8,739 6,673
Other key management personnel remuneration 7,356 3,690
16,095 10,363
Fair value of share-based compensation 2,446 2,972
Remuneration includes salary (which includes allowances, fees and other emoluments) and bonuses.
In addition to the above, the Company provides medical benefits to all employees including key management personnel.
The Group adopts an incentive compensation plan, which is tied to the creation of Economic Value Added (EVA), as well as to attainment of individual and Group performance goals for its key executives. A “bonus bank” is used to hold incentive compensation credited in any year. Typically, one-third of the available balance is paid out in cash each year, with the balance being carried forward to the following year. The balances of the bonus bank in future will be adjusted by the yearly EVA performance of the Group and its subsidiaries and the payouts made from the bonus bank.
The fair value of share-based compensation relates to share options, performance shares and restricted shares granted that were charged to the income statement.
39 Operating segments
(a) Business segments
The Group has two reportable segments, which are the Group’s strategic business units. The strategic business units are managed separately because of their different business activities. The two reportable segments are (i) ship and rig repair, building and conversion and (ii) ship chartering.
The accounting policies are described in Note 2. Inter-segment sales and transfers are carried out on an arm’s length basis. Segment assets consist primarily of property, plant and equipment, current assets and exclude inter-segment balances. Segment liabilities comprise mainly operating liabilities and exclude inter-segment balances. Performance is measured based on segment profit before income tax, as included in the internal management reports that are reviewed by the Group’s CEO. Segment profit is used to measure performance as management believes that such information is the most relevant in evaluating the results of certain segments relative to other entities that operate within these industries.
Other operations include bulk trading in marine engineering related products; provision of harbour tug services to port users; collection and treatment of used copper slag, and the processing and distribution of copper slag for blast cleaning purposes.

40 Financial risk management
The main risks arising from the Group’s financial instruments are credit risk, foreign currency risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk and market risk. The Board of Directors reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised below:
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of loss that may arise on outstanding financial instruments should a counterparty default on its obligations.
The Group’s objective is to seek continual revenue growth while minimising losses incurred due to increased credit risk exposure. The Group manages credit risk arising from sales to customers through a stringent credit evaluation process and regular monitoring thereafter. The management of credit risk is on an aggregate basis by including all existing relationships with a particular customer or related entities of the same corporate organisation. There is no significant concentration of credit risk on the outstanding financial instruments as at year end.
The carrying amounts of trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents and derivatives with positive fair values represent the Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk.
Cash and fixed deposits are placed in banks and financial institutions which are regulated. The Group limits its credit risk exposure in respect of investments by only investing in liquid securities and only with counterparties that have a sound credit rating.
Foreign currency risk
The Group incurs foreign currency risk on sales and purchases that are denominated in a currency other than the Singapore dollar, primarily the United States dollar (USD) and the Euro (EUR). To minimise exposure on foreign currency risks, the Group usually settles such transactions within 30 day terms.
The Group also utilises forward foreign currency contracts to hedge foreign currency denominated financial assets, liabilities and firm commitments. Under this programme, increases or decreases in the Group’s foreign currency denominated financial assets, liabilities and firm commitments are partially offset by gains and losses on the hedging instruments. The Group does not use forward foreign currency contracts for trading purpose.

Sensitivity analysis
A 10% strengthening of the following currencies against the functional currencies of the Company and its subsidiaries at the balance sheet date for the Group’s and Company’s monetary items, including forward foreign exchange contracts, would have increased/(decreased) equity and profit before income tax by the amounts shown below. The analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remain constant. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2009.

(138,478) (131,769) 25,252 (5,950) 3,659 2,357 103 55
A 10% weakening of the above currencies against the functional currencies of the Company and its subsidiaries at the balance sheet date would have equal but opposite effects on the above currencies to the amounts shown above, on the basis that all other variables remain constant.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of the Group’s and the Company’s financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates.
The Group’s policy is to maintain an efficient optimal interest cost structure using a mix of fixed and variable rate debts, where working capital is financed mainly by variable rate loans while long term investments are financed mainly by fixed rate loans. To manage this mix in a cost-efficient manner, the Group enters into interest rate swaps, in which the Group agrees to exchange, at specific intervals, the difference between fixed and variable rate interest amounts calculated by reference to an agreed-upon notional principal amount. These swaps are designated to hedge underlying debt obligations. After taking into account the effect of an interest rate swap, the Group’s borrowings are substantially at a fixed rate of interest. Surplus funds, if any, are placed with reputable banks.
The Group obtains additional financing through bank borrowings and leasing arrangements. The Group’s policy is to obtain the most favourable interest rates available without increasing its foreign currency exposure.
Sensitivity analysis
Based on the cash and cash equivalents for the Group of $2,915,097,000 (2009: $1,978,548,000), it is estimated that a one percentage point increase in interest rate would increase the Group’s profit before taxation by approximately $29,151,000 (2009: $19,785,000). The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2009.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group or the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting financial obligations due to shortage of funds. The Group’s and the Company’s exposure to liquidity risk arises primarily from mismatches of the maturities of financial assets and liabilities. Short term funding is obtained from overdraft facilities and bank borrowings. The Group’s and the Company’s objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the use of stand-by credit facilities.

Market Risk
Market price risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of the Group’s financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market prices (other than interest or exchange rates). The Group is exposed to equity price risk arising from its investments held. The Group manages the risk of unfavourable changes by cautious review of the investments before investing and continuous monitoring of the performance of investments held and assessing market risk relevant to which the investments operate.
Sensitivity analysis
If prices for equity securities increase by 10% with all other variables being held constant, the profit before income tax and equity will increase by:
Group Company2010 2009 2010 2009$’000 $’000 $’000 $’000
Equity 28,509 16,400 19,388 11,170
Profit before income tax 1 4 – –
A 10% decrease in the underlying equity prices would have equal but opposite effects on the amounts shown above. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 2009 and assumes that all other variables remain constant.
Estimation of fair values
FRS 107 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritises the inputs used to measure fair value. The three levels of the fair value input hierarchy defined by FRS 107 are as follows:
• Level 1 – Fair values are measured based on quoted prices (unadjusted) from active markets for identical financial instruments.
• Level 2 – Fair values are measured using inputs, other than those used for Level 1, that are observable for the financial instruments either directly (prices) or indirectly (derived from prices).
• Level 3 – Fair values are measured using inputs which are not based on observable market data (unobservable input).
Securities
The fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, and available-for-sale financial assets, is based on quoted market prices (bid price) at the balance sheet date without any deduction for transaction costs. If the market for a quoted financial asset is not active, and for unquoted financial assets, the Group establishes fair value by using valuation techniques.
Derivatives
Forward exchange contracts are either marked to market using listed market prices at the balance sheet date or, if a listed market price is not available, the fair value is estimated by discounting the difference between the contractual forward price and the current spot rate.
The fair value of interest rate swaps, based on current interest rates curves, is the estimated amount that the Group is expected to receive or pay to terminate the swap with the swap counterparties at the balance sheet date.
Non-derivative financial liabilities
Fair values are calculated based on discounted expected future principal and interest cash flows at the market rate of interest at the reporting date. For finance leases, the market rate of interest is determined by reference to similar lease agreements.
Notes to the Financial StatementsYear ended 31 December 2010
190
Other financial assets and liabilities
The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities with a maturity of less than one year (including trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents, and trade and other payables) are assumed to approximate their fair values because of the short period to maturity. All other financial assets and liabilities are discounted to determine their fair values.
Where discounted cash flow techniques are used, estimated future cash flows are based on management’s best estimates and the discount rate is a market-related rate for a similar instrument at the balance sheet date. Where other pricing models are used, inputs are based on market-related data at the balance sheet date.
Fair value hierarchy
The following table sets forth by level within the fair value hierarchy our financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for fair value on a recurring basis at the balance sheet date. These financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgement, and may affect the valuation of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.

41 Capital management
The Group aims to maintain a sound capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain future development of the business, while at the same time maintaining an appropriate dividend policy to reward shareholders. The Group monitors Economic Value Added attributable to shareholders, which the Group defines as net operating profit after tax less capital charge excluding non-controlling interests. The Group also monitors the level of dividends to ordinary shareholders.
The Group seeks to maintain a balance between the higher returns that might be possible with higher levels of borrowings and the advantages and security afforded by a sound capital position. Capital is defined as equity attributable to the equity holders.
There were no changes in the Group’s approach to capital management during the year.
The Group is required to maintain consolidated net borrowings to consolidated net assets (less dividends, goodwill and other intangible assets) ratio of not more than 1.75. This externally imposed capital requirement has been complied with at each quarter in the financial year ended 31 December 2010.
42 Significant accounting estimates and judgements
Estimates, assumptions concerning the future and judgements are made in the preparation of the financial statements. They affect the application of the Group’s accounting policies, reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses, and disclosures made. They are assessed on an on-going basis and are based on experience and relevant factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the balance sheet date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.
Revenue recognition
The Group has recognised revenue on construction contract, ship and rig repair, building and conversion based on the percentage of completion method in proportion to the stage of completion. The percentage of completion is assessed by reference to surveys of work performed. Significant judgement is required in determining the appropriate stage of completion and estimating a reasonable contribution margin for revenue and costs recognition.
Provisions
The provision for warranty is based on estimates from known and expected warranty work and contractual obligation for further work to be performed after completion. The warranty expense incurred could be higher or lower than the provision made. Movements in provision for warranty are detailed in Note 18.
Depreciation of property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Management estimates the useful lives of these property, plant and equipment to be within 1 to 60 years. The carrying amount of the Group’s property, plant and equipment at 31 December 2010 was $681,948,000 (2009: $678,361,000). Changes in the expected level of usage and technological developments could impact the economic useful lives and the residual values of these assets, therefore future depreciation charges could be revised.
Notes to the Financial StatementsYear ended 31 December 2010
192
Income tax
The Group has exposure to income taxes in various jurisdictions. Significant judgement is involved in determining the Group-wide provision for income taxes. There are certain transactions and computations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. The Group recognises liabilities for expected tax issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recognised, such differences will impact the income tax and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination is made. The carrying amount of the Group’s provision for taxation at 31 December 2010 was $277,341,000 (2009: $253,218,000). The carrying amounts of the Group’s deferred tax assets and liabilities at 31 December 2010 were $47,000 (2009: $47,000) and $103,909,000 (2009: $66,748,000) respectively.

44 New or Revised Accounting Standards and Interpretations
Below are the mandatory standards, amendments and interpretations to existing standards that have been published, and are relevant for the Group’s accounting period beginning on or after 1 January 2011 or later periods and which the Group has not early adopted:
Amendments to FRS 24 – Related party disclosures Amendments to FRS 32 Financial instruments: Presentation – classification of rights issuesAmendments to INT FRS 114 – Prepayments of a minimum funding requirement INT FRS 119 Extinguishing financial liabilities with equity instrumentsImprovements to FRSs 2010
The management anticipates that the adoption of the above FRSs, INT FRS, amendments and improvements to FRS in the future periods will not have a material impact on the financial statements of the Group and of the Company in the period of their initial adoption, except for the amendments to FRS 24 – Related party disclosures.
The amendments to FRS 24 will become effective for the Group’s financial statements for the year ending 31 December 2011. The amendment simplifies the disclosure requirements for government-related entities. It also clarifies and simplifies the definition of a related party. However, the revised definition of a related party will also mean that some entities will have more related parties and will be required to make additional disclosures.
Management is currently considering the revised definition to determine whether any additional disclosures will be required.
