Acquisitions [Abstract]

Mergers, Acquisitions and Dispositions Disclosures [Text Block]

In June 2015, we acquired a business providing additional reservoir fluids technology for $17.2 million in cash. We have accounted for this acquisition by allocating the purchase price to the net assets acquired based on their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition, resulting in an increase to goodwill of $14.3 million and an increase of $1.9 million in intangible assets. The acquisition was recorded in the Reservoir Description business segment.

The acquisition of this entity did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Balance Sheet or Consolidated Statements of Operations.
