What is the past tense of 순조롭다?

순조로웠어요 in everyday polite speech, 순조로웠습니다 formally. It is built from the 아/어 form 순조로워 plus ㅆ, which is why an irregular stem shows its irregularity here.

Is 순조롭다 irregular?

Yes — it is ㅂ irregular (ㅂ 불규칙). ㅂ becomes 우 before a vowel: 춥다 → 추워요. That is why the stem looks different in 순조로워 and 순조로우니 but unchanged in 순조롭습니다.
