(1) In June 2026, we divested certain non-core natural gas pipeline and platform assets in our offshore pipeline transportation segment.
At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, $24.6 million and $24.3 million, respectively, of our ARO liability balances are considered current and included in “Accrued liabilities” on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The remainder of the ARO liability balances as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 are included in “Other long-term liabilities” on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Certain of our unconsolidated affiliates have AROs recorded at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 relating to contractual agreements and regulatory requirements. In addition, certain entities that we consolidate have non-controlling interest owners that are responsible for their representative share of future costs of the related AROs. These amounts are immaterial to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
