Debt Disclosure [Abstract] |
Debt | Note 6—Debt In the third quarter of 2023, we issued $2.7 billion in new Notes through our universal shelf registration statement and prospectus supplement. The net proceeds were used to fund the acquisition of the remaining 50 percent working interest in Surmont, which was completed on October 4, 2023. See Note 3. The following Notes were issued: •5.05% Notes due 2033 with principal of $1.0 billion •5.55% Notes due 2054 with principal of $1.0 billion •5.70% Notes due 2063 with principal of $0.7 billion In the second quarter of 2023, as described further below, we initiated and completed two concurrent transactions as part of our debt refinancing strategy. We issued $1.1 billion in new Notes through our universal shelf registration statement and prospectus supplement and used the proceeds to repurchase $1.1 billion of existing debt. New Debt Issuance On May 23, 2023, we issued 5.3% Notes due 2053 with principal of $1.1 billion. Tender Offers On May 25, 2023, we repurchased a total of $1,133 million aggregate principal amount of debt as listed below. We paid $33 million below face value to repurchase these debt instruments and recognized a gain on debt extinguishment of $27 million which is included in the "Other expenses" line on our consolidated income statement. •2.125% Notes due 2024 with principal of $900 million (partial repurchase of $439 million) •3.350% Notes due 2024 with principal of $426 million (partial repurchase of $160 million) •2.400% Notes due 2025 with principal of $900 million (partial repurchase of $534 million) Our debt balance at September 30, 2023 was $19.1 billion, compared with $16.6 billion at December 31, 2022. Our revolving credit facility provides a total borrowing capacity of $5.5 billion with an expiration date of February 2027. Our revolving credit facility may be used for direct bank borrowings, the issuance of letters of credit totaling up to $500 million, or as support for our commercial paper program. The revolving credit facility is broadly syndicated among financial institutions and does not contain any material adverse change provisions or any covenants requiring maintenance of specified financial ratios or credit ratings. The facility agreement contains a cross-default provision relating to the failure to pay principal or interest on other debt obligations of $200 million or more by ConocoPhillips, or any of its consolidated subsidiaries. The amount of the facility is not subject to redetermination prior to its expiration date. Credit facility borrowings may bear interest at a margin above the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR). The facility agreement calls for commitment fees on available, but unused, amounts. The facility agreement also contains early termination rights if our current directors or their approved successors cease to be a majority of the Board of Directors. The revolving credit facility supports our ability to issue up to $5.5 billion of commercial paper. Commercial paper is generally limited to maturities of 90 days and is included in short-term debt on our consolidated balance sheet. With no commercial paper outstanding and no direct borrowings or letters of credit, we had access to $5.5 billion in available borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility at September 30, 2023. At December 31, 2022, we had no commercial paper outstanding and no direct borrowings or letters of credit issued. We do not have any ratings triggers on any of our corporate debt that would cause an automatic default, and thereby impact our access to liquidity upon downgrade of our credit ratings. If our credit ratings are downgraded from their current levels, it could increase the cost of corporate debt available to us and restrict our access to the commercial paper markets. If our credit ratings were to deteriorate to a level prohibiting us from accessing the commercial paper market, we would still be able to access funds under our revolving credit facility. At September 30, 2023, we had $283 million of certain variable rate demand bonds (VRDBs) outstanding with maturities ranging through 2035. The VRDBs are redeemable at the option of the bondholders on any business day. If they are ever redeemed, we have the ability and intent to refinance on a long-term basis; therefore, the VRDBs are included in the “Long-term debt” line on our consolidated balance sheet.
