Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]  
General
GENERAL
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Aegion Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Aegion” or the “Company”) reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the dates and periods presented. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected during the remainder of the current year or for any future period. All significant intercompany related accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2017, which is derived from the audited consolidated financial statements, and the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), the requirements of Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X and, consequently, do not include all information or footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements or all the disclosures normally made in an Annual Report on Form 10-K. Accordingly, the unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the Company’s 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 1, 2018.

Acquisitions/Strategic Initiatives/Divestitures
2017 Restructuring
On July 28, 2017, the Company’s board of directors approved a realignment and restructuring plan (the “2017 Restructuring”). As part of the 2017 Restructuring, the Company announced plans 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® system in North America; (iii) right-size the cathodic protection services operation in Canada and the CIPP businesses in Australia and Denmark; and (iv) reduce corporate and other operating costs. These decisions reflected the Company’s: (a) desire to reduce further its exposure in the North American upstream oil and gas markets; (b) assessment of its ability to drive sustainable, profitable growth in the non-pipe fiber reinforced polymer (“FRP”) contracting market in North America; and (c) assessment of continuing weak conditions in the Canadian oil and gas markets. See Note 4.
Infrastructure Solutions Segment (“Infrastructure Solutions”)
On March 1, 2017, the Company acquired Environmental Techniques Limited and its parent holding company, Killeen Trading Limited (collectively “Environmental Techniques”), for a purchase price of £6.5 million, approximately $8.0 million, which was funded from the Company’s international cash balances. Environmental Techniques provides trenchless drainage inspection, cleaning and rehabilitation services throughout the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland.
Corrosion Protection Segment (“Corrosion Protection”)
In September 2017, the Company organized Aegion South Africa Proprietary Limited, a joint venture in South Africa between Aegion International Holdings Limited, a subsidiary of the Company (“Aegion International”), and Robor Proprietary Limited (“Robor”), for the purpose of providing Aegion’s Corrosion Protection and Infrastructure Solutions products and services to sub-Saharan Africa. Aegion International owns sixty percent (60%) of the joint venture and Robor owns the remaining forty percent (40%).
On July 28, 2017, the Company’s board of directors approved a plan to divest Bayou. Accordingly, the Company has classified Bayou’s assets and liabilities as held for sale on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017. See Note 5.
