Other long-term assets include unutilized parts originally ordered for the Golar Spirit FSRU retrofitting following changes to the original project specification.  Of these parts $8.4 million have been used internally for both the retrofitting of the NR Satu and to a lesser extent the Golar Freeze in 2009.  Since acquisition, the Company has recognized total impairment charges of $4.0 million (see note 8).  As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the carrying value of these parts was $3.0 million and $3.5 million, respectively.
