RESTRUCTURING
2017 Restructuring
On July 28, 2017, the Company’s board of directors approved the 2017 Restructuring to: (i) divest the Company’s pipe coating and insulation businesses in Louisiana, The Bayou Companies, LLC and Bayou Wasco Insulation, LLC (collectively “Bayou”); (ii) exit all non-pipe related contract applications for the Tyfo® Fibrwrap® system in North America; (iii) right-size the cathodic protection services operation in Canada; and (iv) reduce corporate and other operating costs. These decisions reflect the Company’s: (i) desire to further reduce its exposure in the North American upstream oil and gas markets; (ii) assessment of its ability to drive sustainable, profitable growth in the non-pipe FRP contracting market in North America; and (iii) assessment of continuing weak conditions in the Canadian oil and gas markets. During the third quarter of 2017, the Company also completed a detailed assessment of the Infrastructure Solutions businesses in Australia and Denmark, which resulted in additional restructuring actions in both countries.
During the third quarter of 2017, total pre-tax 2017 Restructuring charges recorded were $6.7 million ($5.7 million after tax) and consisted of employee severance, retention, extension of benefits, employment assistance programs, early lease termination and other restructuring costs associated with the restructuring efforts described above. The Company expects to incur charges of $12 million to $15 million, most of which are expected to be cash charges and incurred in the second half of 2017 and the first quarter of 2018. These charges are mainly in the Infrastructure Solutions segment and, to a lesser extent, the Corrosion Protection segment. The Company expects to reduce headcount by approximately 300 employees as a result of these actions.
During the quarter ended September 30, 2017, the Company recorded pre-tax expenses related to the 2017 Restructuring as follows (in thousands):

2016 Restructuring
On January 4, 2016, the Company’s board of directors approved the 2016 Restructuring to reduce its exposure to the upstream oil markets and to reduce consolidated expenses. During 2016, the Company completed its restructuring, which included repositioning Energy Services’ upstream operations in California, reducing Corrosion Protection’s upstream exposure by divesting its interest in a Canadian pipe coating joint venture, right-sizing Corrosion Protection to compete more effectively and reducing corporate and other operating costs. Cost savings were achieved primarily through office closures and headcount reductions of 964 employees, or 15.5% of the Company’s total workforce as of December 31, 2015.
Total pre-tax 2016 Restructuring charges recorded since inception were $16.1 million ($10.3 million after tax) and consisted of employee severance, retention, extension of benefits, employment assistance programs, early lease termination and other restructuring costs associated with the restructuring efforts described above. The majority of 2016 Restructuring costs were cash charges.
There were no expenses incurred in the first nine months of 2017 related to the 2016 Restructuring. During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company recorded pre-tax expenses related to the 2016 Restructuring as follows (in thousands):
