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, we have recognized total impairment charges of $4.5 million (see note 9). As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the carrying value of these parts was $2.5 million and $3.0 million, respectively.
