The estimated fair value of commodity derivative contracts was based upon forward commodity price curves based on quoted market prices. Commodity derivative contracts were valued by utilizing an independent third-party derivative valuation provider who uses various types of valuation models, as applicable. The initial measurement of asset retirement obligations at fair value is calculated using discounted cash flow techniques and based on internal estimates of future retirement costs associated with property, plant and equipment. Significant Level 3 inputs used in the calculation of asset retirement obligations include plugging costs and reserve lives. A reconciliation of EOG's asset retirement obligations is presented in Note 6. Proved oil and gas properties and other assets with a carrying amount of $413 million were written down to their fair value of $322 million, resulting in pretax impairment charges of $91 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Included in the $91 million pretax impairment charges are $89 million for a commodity price-related write-down of other assets. EOG utilized average prices per acre from comparable market transactions and estimated discounted cash flows as the basis for determining the fair value of unproved and proved properties, respectively, received in non-cash property exchanges. See Note 4. Fair Value of Debt. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, EOG had outstanding $5,140 million and $6,040 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes, which had estimated fair values at such dates of approximately $5,387 million and $6,027 million, respectively. The estimated fair value of debt was based upon quoted market prices and, where such prices were not available, other observable (Level 2) inputs regarding interest rates available to EOG at the end of each respective period.
