Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] |
Risk Management | 14. Risk Management Certain of our business activities expose us to risks associated with unfavorable changes in the market price of natural gas, NGL and crude oil. We also have exposure to interest rate and foreign currency risk as a result of the issuance of our debt obligations. Pursuant to our management’s approved risk management policy, we use derivative contracts to hedge or reduce our exposure to some of these risks. During the year ended December 31, 2018, due to volatility in certain basis differentials, we discontinued hedge accounting on certain of our crude oil derivative contracts as we did not expect them to be highly effective, for accounting purposes, in offsetting the variability in cash flows. As of December 31, 2018, these hedging relationships had been re-designated as the effectiveness improved to required levels. As the forecasted transactions were still probable, accumulated gains and losses prior to the discontinuance remained in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” unless earnings were impacted by the forecasted transactions; however, changes in the derivative contracts’ fair value subsequent to the discontinuance of hedge accounting and prior to the re-designation were reported in earnings. Upon re-designation, we resumed reporting changes in the derivative contracts’ fair value in “Accumulated other comprehensive income.” On January 1, 2019, we adopted ASU No. 2017-12, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities.” The ASU better aligns an entity’s risk management activities and financial reporting for hedging relationships through changes to both the designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships and the presentation of hedge results. We applied ASU No. 2017-12 using a modified retrospective approach for cash flow and fair value hedges existing at the date of adoption and prospectively for the presentation and disclosure guidance. Our adoption of ASU No. 2017-12 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. Energy Commodity Price Risk Management As of December 31, 2019, we had the following outstanding commodity forward contracts to hedge our forecasted energy commodity purchases and sales:
| Net open position long/(short)
Derivatives designated as hedging contracts |  |
Crude oil fixed price | (19.6 | ) | MMBbl
Crude oil basis | (7.2 | ) | MMBbl
Natural gas fixed price | (30.8 | ) | Bcf
Natural gas basis | (22.3 | ) | Bcf
NGL fixed price | (1.3 | ) | MMBbl
Derivatives not designated as hedging contracts |  |  |
Crude oil fixed price | (0.8 | ) | MMBbl
Crude oil basis | (4.1 | ) | MMBbl
Natural gas fixed price | (5.2 | ) | Bcf
Natural gas basis | (8.8 | ) | Bcf
NGL fixed price | (1.9 | ) | MMBbl
As of December 31, 2019, the maximum length of time over which we have hedged, for accounting purposes, our exposure to the variability in future cash flows associated with energy commodity price risk is through December 2023. Interest Rate Risk Management We utilize interest rate derivatives to hedge our exposure to both changes in the fair value of our fixed rate debt instruments and variability in expected future cash flows attributable to variable interest rate payments. The following table summarizes our outstanding interest rate contracts as of December 31, 2019 (in millions):
|  | Notional amount |  | Accounting treatment |  | Maximum term |
Derivatives designated as hedging instruments |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Fixed-to-variable interest rate contracts(a) |  | $8,725 |  | Fair value hedge |  | March 2035 |
Variable-to-fixed interest rate contracts |  | $250 |  | Cash flow hedge |  | January 2023 |
_______
(a) | The principal amount of hedged senior notes consisted of $1,100 million included in “Current portion of debt” and $7,625 million included in “Long-term debt” on our accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
Foreign Currency Risk Management We utilize foreign currency derivatives to hedge our exposure to variability in foreign exchange rates. The following table summarizes our outstanding foreign currency contracts as of December 31, 2019 (in millions):
|  | Notional amount |  | Accounting treatment |  | Maximum term |
Derivatives designated as hedging instruments |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
EUR-to-USD cross currency swap contracts(a) |  | $1,358 |  | Cash flow hedge |  | March 2027 |
_______ (a) These s waps eliminate the foreign currency risk associated with all of our Euro-denominated debt. During the year ended December 31, 2018, we entered into foreign currency swap agreements with a combined notional principal amount of C$2,450 million (U.S.$1,888 million). These swaps resulted in our selling fixed C$ and receiving fixed U.S.$, effectively hedging the foreign currency risk associated with a substantial portion of our share of the TMPL Sale proceeds which KML distributed on January 3, 2019, at which time the foreign currency swaps expired. These foreign currency swaps were accounted for as net investment hedges as the foreign currency risk was related to our investment in Canadian dollar denominated foreign operations, and the critical risks of the forward contracts coincided with those of the net investment. As a result, the change in fair value of the foreign currency swaps were reflected in the “Foreign currency translation adjustments” section of “Other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax” on our consolidated statements of comprehensive income. In December 2019, these currency translation adjustments were recognized as a part of the after-tax net gain on the KML and U.S. Cochin Sale. See Note 3.

_______
(a) | We expect to reclassify an approximate $22 million gain associated with cash flow hedge price risk management activities included in our accumulated other comprehensive loss balance as of December 31, 2019 into earnings during the next twelve months (when the associated forecasted transactions are also expected to impact earnings); however, actual amounts reclassified into earnings could vary materially as a result of changes in market prices.
(b) | During the year ended December 31, 2019, we recognized a $12 million gain associated with a write-down of hedged inventory. During the year ended December 31, 2018, we recognized a $3 million loss as a result of our equity investment’s forecasted transactions being probable of not occurring and a $21 million gain associated with a write-down of hedged inventory. All other amounts reclassified were the result of the hedged forecasted transactions actually affecting earnings (i.e., when the forecasted sales and purchases actually occurred).
(c) | Amounts represent our share of an equity investee’s accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

________ (a) The years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017 include approximate losses of $8 million and $4 million, and gains of $57 million, respectively, associated with natural gas, crude and NGL derivative contract settlements. (b) Amounts represent our share of an equity investee’s income (loss). Credit Risks In conjunction with certain derivative contracts, we are required to provide collateral to our counterparties, which may include posting letters of credit or placing cash in margin accounts. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, we had no outstanding letters of credit supporting our commodity price risk management program. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, we had cash margins of $15 million and $16 million, respectively, posted by our counterparties with us as collateral and reported within “Other current liabilities” on our accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The balance at December 31, 2019 represents the net of our initial margin requirements of $6 million, offset by counterparty variation margin requirements of $21 million. We also use industry standard commercial agreements that allow for the netting of exposures associated with transactions executed under a single commercial agreement. Additionally, we generally utilize master netting agreements to offset credit exposure across multiple commercial agreements with a single counterparty. We also have agreements with certain counterparties to our derivative contracts that contain provisions requiring the posting of additional collateral upon a decrease in our credit rating. As of December 31, 2019, based on our current mark-to- market positions and posted collateral, we estimate that if our credit rating were downgraded one notch we would not be required to post additional collateral. If we were downgraded two notches, we estimate that we would be required to post $11 million of additional collateral.
