OTHER TRANSACTIONS	36. OTHER TRANSACTIONS On September 29, 2018, Suncor along with the other working-interest partners in the Joslyn Oil Sands Mining project, agreed to sell 100% of their respective working interests to Canadian Natural Resources Limited for gross proceeds of $225 million, $82.7 million net to Suncor. Suncor held a 36.75% working interest in Joslyn prior to the transaction. The working-interest partners received cash proceeds of $100 million ($36.8 million net to Suncor) upon closing, with the remaining $125 million ($45.9 million net to Suncor) to be received in equal instalments over the next five years. As a result, Suncor has recorded a long-term receivable of $36.7 million within the Other Assets line item and the first instalment of $9.2 million is recorded within the Accounts Receivable line item. The transaction resulted in a gain of $83 million in the Oil Sands segment. On May 31, 2018, the company completed the previously announced transaction to acquire a 17.5% interest in the Fenja development project in Norway from Faroe Petroleum Norge AS for acquisition costs of US$55 million (approximately $70 million), plus interim settlement costs of $22 million under the acquisition method. This project was sanctioned by its owners in December 2017. On March 23, 2018, Suncor completed an exchange of its northeast B.C. mineral landholdings, including associated production, and consideration of $52 million for a 37% equity interest in Canbriam Energy Inc. (Canbriam) (a private natural gas company). The investment is accounted for using the equity method of accounting. In the fourth quarter of 2018, the company wrote down its interest in Canbriam as a result of the company's assessment of expected future commodity prices and net cash flows, for a net loss in the year of $90 million after-tax. The remaining carrying value of the company's interest in Canbriam is nil.
