Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, total revenues grew by $127.3 million during the three months ended September 30, 2009. The increase was attributable primarily to an improved portfolio of projects in our subsea business and better project execution during the third quarter of 2009, partially offset by a decline in our surface wellhead business.

The margin improvement resulted primarily from an improved portfolio of projects in our subsea business and better project execution during the third quarter of 2009. On an absolute dollar basis, operating profit increased by $38.8 million during the third quarter of 2009 as compared to the prior-year period. Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, operating profit increased $50.9 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2009, as compared to the same period in 2008.
Our corporate items reduced earnings by $32.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, compared to $6.8 million for the same period in 2008.

Additionally, we had increased pension expense of $5.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, compared to the prior-year period and increased interest expense of $1.2 million as a result of lower interest income during the quarter ended September 30, 2009, driven by reduced yields on cash investments.
Inbound orders represent the estimated sales value of confirmed customer orders received during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, and the impact of translation on the previous quarters backlog. Backlog translation positively affected orders by $155.1 million in the three months ended September 30, 2009, and negatively affected orders by $309.2 million in the comparable period of 2008.
