REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

As of March 31, 2020, we had $56.7 million of remaining contractual performance obligations for compression services. As a practical expedient, this amount does not reflect revenue for compression service contracts whose original expected duration is less than twelve months and does not consider the effects of the time value of money. Expected revenue to be recognized in the future as of March 31, 2020 for completion of performance obligations of compression service contracts are as follows:

	2020		2021		2022		2023		2024		Total
	(In Thousands)
Compression service contracts remaining performance obligations	$	38,720	$	15,941	$	2,026	$	54	$	—	$	56,741

For sales of CBFs where we have agreed to issue credits for the repurchase of reclaimable used fluids at an agreed price based on the condition of the fluid upon return, we adjust the revenue recognized in the period of shipment by an estimated amount, based on historical experience, of the credit expected to be issued. As of March 31, 2020, the amount of remaining credits expected to be issued for the repurchase of reclaimable used fluids was $5.6 million recorded in inventory (right of return asset) and either accounts payable or as a reduction to accounts receivable. There were no material differences between amounts recognized during the three month period ended March 31, 2020, compared to estimates made in a prior period from these variable consideration arrangements.

Our contract asset balances, primarily associated with customer documentation requirements, were $33.3 million and $34.9 million as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Contract assets, along with billed trade accounts receivable, are included in trade accounts receivable in our consolidated balance sheets.

Collections primarily associated with progressive billings to customers for the construction of compression equipment is included in unearned income in the consolidated balance sheets. The following table reflects the changes in unearned income in our consolidated balance sheets for the periods indicated:

During the three month period ended March 31, 2020, we recognized product sales revenue of $2.9 million from unearned income that was deferred as of December 31, 2019. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, we recognized product sales revenue of $11.0 million from unearned income that was deferred as of December 31, 2018.

As of March 31, 2020, contract costs were immaterial.

We disaggregate revenue from contracts with customers into Product Sales and Services within each segment, as noted in our three reportable segments in Note 11. In addition, we disaggregate revenue from contracts with customers by geography based on the following table below.
