Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements The tables below and on the next page show the fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis at December 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016. Marketable Securities The company calculates fair value for its marketable securities based on quoted market prices for identical assets. The fair values reflect the cash that would have been received if the instruments were sold at December 31, 2017. Derivatives The company records its derivative instruments – other than any commodity derivative contracts that are designated as normal purchase and normal sale – on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at fair value, with the offsetting amount to the Consolidated Statement of Income. Derivatives classified as Level 1 include futures, swaps and options contracts traded in active markets such as the New York Mercantile Exchange. Derivatives classified as Level 2 include swaps, options and forward contracts principally with financial institutions and other oil and gas companies, the fair values of which are obtained from third-party broker quotes, industry pricing services and exchanges. The company obtains multiple sources of pricing information for the Level 2 instruments. Since this pricing information is generated from observable market data, it has historically been very consistent. The company does not materially adjust this information. Properties, Plant and Equipment The company did not have any individually material impairments in 2017. The company reported impairments for certain oil and gas properties during 2016 primarily due to reservoir performance and lower crude oil prices. The impairments in 2016 were primarily in Brazil and the United States. Investments and Advances The company did not have any individually material impairments of investments and advances in 2017 or 2016. Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Assets and Liabilities Not Required to Be Measured at Fair Value The company holds cash equivalents and time deposits in U.S. and non-U.S. portfolios. The instruments classified as cash equivalents are primarily bank time deposits with maturities of 90 days or less and money market funds. “Cash and cash equivalents” had carrying/fair values of $4,813 and $6,988 at December 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016, respectively. The fair values of cash and cash equivalents are classified as Level 1 and reflect the cash that would have been received if the instruments were settled at December 31, 2017. "Cash and cash equivalents” do not include investments with a carrying/fair value of $1,130 and $1,426 at December 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016, respectively. At December 31, 2017, these investments are classified as Level 1 and include restricted funds related to certain upstream abandonment activities, tax payments and refundable deposits related to pending asset sales, which are reported in “Deferred charges and other assets” on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Long-term debt of $23,477 and $26,193 at December 31, 2017, and December 31, 2016, respectively, had estimated fair values of $23,943 and $26,627, respectively. Long-term debt primarily includes corporate issued bonds. The fair value of corporate bonds is $23,245 and classified as Level 1. The fair value of other long-term debt is $698 and classified as Level 2. The carrying values of short-term financial assets and liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet approximate their fair values. Fair value remeasurements of other financial instruments at December 31, 2017 and 2016, were not material.
