Oil and Gas (1) Includes approximately $83 million of equity in earnings during 2011 for our proportionate share of Remora's net income, inclusive of the gains recognized for asset sales during 2011. (2) Includes impairments during 2013 of $61.5 million to write down the carrying value of some of our wholly owned oil and gas-centered assets, partially offset by a gain related to our restructure of our future pipeline obligations. (3) Includes adjustments during 2012 to increase our pipeline contractual commitments by $128.1 million and other gains and losses related to the sale of our wholly owned oil and gas-centered assets. (4) Includes impairments during 2011 of $255.0 million to write down the carrying value of our wholly owned oil and gas-centered assets. Rig Services (5) Represents the gains recognized from our sale of our logistics services and construction services. In April 2013, we sold the assets of one of our former Canadian subsidiaries that provided logistics services for proceeds of $9.3 million. In October 2013, we sold Peak, one of our businesses in Alaska, for which we received cash proceeds of $135.5 million. (6) Includes $7.8 million and $7.9 million, respectively, of impairment (a Level 3 measurement) in 2012 and 2011 to our aircraft and logistics assets as a result of the continued downturn in the oil and gas industry in Canada.
