In July 2019, we closed on the sale of our U.K. business (Marathon Oil U.K. LLC and Marathon Oil West of Shetlands Limited) for proceeds of $95 million which included the assumption by RockRose Energy PLC (the buyer) of the U.K. business’ cash equivalent balance and working capital balance as of year-end 2018. During the third quarter of 2019, we recognized a pre-tax gain of $14 million. Our income before income taxes relating to our U.K. business for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, was nil and $28 million.
In the second quarter of 2019, we closed on the sale of our 15% non-operated interest in the Atrush block in Kurdistan for proceeds of $63 million, before closing adjustments.
