Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Accounting policies	ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of accounting These unaudited consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). These unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all of the disclosures required under U.S. GAAP in annual consolidated financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, which are included in our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on March 28, 2024. Significant accounting policies The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these unaudited consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2024 are consistent with those followed in the preparation of our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, except for those discussed below and disclosed in note 3. Contingencies We may, from time to time, be involved in various legal proceedings, claims, lawsuits and complaints that arise in the ordinary course of business. We will recognize a contingent liability in our consolidated financial statements if the contingency has occurred at the balance sheet date and where we believe that the likelihood of loss was probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If we determine that the reasonable estimate of the loss is a range and there is no best estimate within the range, we will recognize the lower amount within the range. A contingent gain is only recognized when the amount is considered realized or realizable. Legal costs are expensed as incurred. Use of estimates The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. We base our estimates, judgments and assumptions on our historical experience and on information that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances at the time they are made. Estimates and assumptions about future events and their effects cannot be perceived with certainty and these estimates may change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as our operating environment changes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Estimates are used for, but are not limited to, determining the recoverability of our vessels and asset under development and the valuation of our oil and gas derivative instruments. In assessing the recoverability of our vessels’ carrying amounts, we make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows, estimates in respect of residual values, charter rates, vessel operating expenses and drydocking requirements.
