Business Acquisition [Line Items]  
Schedule of Business Acquisitions, by Acquisition
The table below shows the preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at closing. The allocation is subject to change during the remainder of the measurement period, which ends one year from the closing date, as additional information is obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed at the closing date. Any material adjustments to provisional amounts identified during the measurement period will be recognized and disclosed in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. During the fourth quarter, certain modifications were made to preliminary valuation amounts for acquired property, plant and equipment, current liabilities, and deferred income taxes, resulting in a $6 million net decrease to goodwill, which relate primarily to the sale of Questar Fueling Company in December 2016 as further described in the Sale of Questar Fueling Company.
