OPERATIONS BY BUSINESS SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC AREA
Business Segment Information

We are a global provider of engineered services and products, primarily to the offshore energy industry. Through the use of our applied technology expertise, we also serve the defense, aerospace and commercial theme park industries. Our Energy Services and Products business consists of Remotely Operated Vehicles ("ROVs"), Subsea Products, Subsea Projects and Asset Integrity. Our ROV segment provides submersible vehicles operated from the surface to support offshore energy exploration, development and production activities. Our Subsea Products segment supplies a variety of specialty subsea hardware and related services. Our Subsea Projects segment provides multiservice subsea support vessels and offshore diving and support vessel operations, primarily for inspection, maintenance and repair and installation activities. We also provide survey, autonomous underwater vehicle ("AUV") and satellite-positioning services. Our Asset Integrity segment provides asset integrity management and assessment services, nondestructive testing and inspection. Our Advanced Technologies business provides project management, engineering services and equipment for applications in non-energy industries. Unallocated Expenses are those not associated with a specific business segment. These consist of expenses related to our incentive and deferred compensation plans, including restricted stock and bonuses, as well as other general expenses, including corporate administrative expenses.
There are no differences in the basis of segmentation or in the basis of measurement of segment profit or loss in the year ended December 31, 2018 from those used in our consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.

We determine income from operations for each business segment before interest income or expense, other income (expense) and provision for income taxes. We do not consider an allocation of these items to be practical.

During 2018, we recorded a pre-tax goodwill impairment of $76 million in our Subsea Projects segment, as a component of Depreciation and Amortization Expense. We also recorded the write-offs of certain equipment and intangible assets associated with exiting the land survey business and equipment obsolescence of $7.6 million, attributable to each reporting segment as follows:

Remotely Operated Vehicles - $0.6 million;
Subsea Products - $1.5 million; and
Subsea Projects - $5.5 million;

During 2016, we recognized restructuring expenses related to severance costs of $11.6 million, attributable to each reporting segment as follows:

Remotely Operated Vehicles - $3.8 million;
Subsea Products - $3.7 million;
Subsea Projects - $2.1 million;
Asset Integrity - $1.4 million;
Advanced Technologies - $0.5 million; and
Unallocated Expenses - $0.1 million.

Revenue from one customer, Royal Dutch Shell, accounted for 10% of our 2018 total consolidated annual revenue, and, revenue from another customer, BP plc and subsidiaries, accounted for 12% in 2017 and 18% in 2016 of our total consolidated annual revenue.
