See Note 2 for discussion of changes in goodwill resulting from acquisitions during the first nine months of 2015. Devon performs an annual impairment test of goodwill at October 31, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a reporting unit may not be recoverable. Sustained weakness in the overall energy sector driven by low commodity prices, together with a decline in EnLink’s unit price, caused a change in circumstances warranting an interim impairment test of EnLink’s reporting units. In the third quarter of 2015, Devon recorded a noncash goodwill impairment of $576 million related to EnLink’s Louisiana reporting unit. Other Intangible Assets The assessment of EnLink’s customer relationships was also updated as of September 30, 2015 due to the factors in the aforementioned goodwill impairment analysis. Level 3 fair value measurements were utilized for the impairment analysis of definite-lived intangible assets, which included discounted cash flow estimates, consistent with those utilized in the goodwill impairment assessment. This assessment resulted in Devon recognizing a $223 million noncash other intangible assets impairment related to EnLink’s Crude and Condensate reporting unit. The following table presents other intangible assets reported in other long-term assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
|  | September 30, 2015 |  | December 31, 2014

Customer relationships |  | $ | 646 |  | $ | 569
Accumulated amortization |  |  | (43) |  |  | (36)
Net intangibles |  | $ | 603 |  | $ | 533
The weighted-average amortization period for other intangible assets is 11.4 years. Amortization expense for intangibles was approximately $14.6 million and $10.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $44.3 million and $23.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The following table presents a summary of the estimated remaining aggregate amortization expense for the next five years.
