NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS
 
As at December 31, 2017, we collectively owned a 75% ownership interest in SEP, together with 100% of SEP's incentive distribution rights (IDRs). On January 22, 2018, Enbridge and SEP announced the execution of a definitive agreement, resulting in us converting all of our IDRs and general partner economic interests in SEP into 172.5 million newly issued SEP common units. As part of the transaction, all of the IDRs were eliminated. We now hold a non-economic general partner interest in SEP and own approximately 403 million SEP common units, representing approximately 83% of SEP's outstanding common units. As a result of this restructuring, we recorded a decrease in Noncontrolling interests of $1.5 billion and increases in Additional paid-in capital and Deferred income taxes of $1.1 billion and $333 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2018.
