Assets Held for Sale
Assets held for sale of $8.7 million as of June 30, 2013 was comprised of the net book value of two land rigs and related inventory located in Kazakhstan, one barge rig and related inventory located in Mexico, and a building located in Tulsa, OK. Management expects to sell the barge rig located in Mexico within one year. The barge rig was in the Latin America rig fleet and has historically been included in the international drilling segment. We believe the carrying amount of the assets will be recoverable through sale of the assets.
As of June 30, 2013, for three rigs which had previously been recorded as assets held for sale as of December 31, 2010, management concluded the current facts and circumstances underlying the sale indicate it is no longer probable that a sale will be consummated within a reasonable time period. As a result, we reclassified assets previously recorded in the category as assets held for sale to assets held and used. The assets were reclassified at their carrying amount before the assets were classified as held for sale, adjusted for depreciation expense that would have been recognized had the assets been continuously classified as held and used. We believe the updated carrying value approximates the market value for these assets. The amount of additional depreciation recorded during the quarter ended June 30, 2013 to place the assets in held and used categorization was $0.7 million.
