Commitments And Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Future Minimum Rental Commitments | We lease certain office space, office equipment, production facilities, compressors and transportation equipment under cancelable and non-cancelable leases. Rent expense under operating leases (including renewable monthly leases) totaled $14.0 million in 2016 compared to $15.9 million in 2015 and $13.3 million in 2014. Commitments related to these lease payments are not recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Future minimum rental commitments under non-cancelable leases having remaining lease terms in excess of one year are as follows (in thousands):

Schedule of Future Minimum Transportation and Gathering Fees | We have entered into firm transportation and gathering contracts with various pipeline carriers for the future transportation and gathering of natural gas, NGLs and oil production from our properties in Pennsylvania and North Louisiana. Under these contracts, we are obligated to transport or gather minimum daily natural gas volumes, or pay for any deficiencies at a specified reservation fee rate. In most cases, our production committed to these pipelines is expected to exceed the minimum daily volumes provided in the contracts. As part of our purchase price allocation of liabilities that existed at the time of the MRD Merger, we have a liability of $59.2 million for certain expected volume deficiency payments related to our properties in North Louisiana. As of December 31, 2016, future minimum transportation and gathering fees under our commitments are as follows (in thousands):
| Transportation and Gathering Contracts (a) |
2017 | $ | 705,243 |
2018 |  | 699,863 |
2019 |  | 699,254 |
2020 |  | 635,379 |
2021 |  | 606,797 |
Thereafter |  | 3,326,015 |
| $ | 6,672,551 |
(a) The amounts in this table represent the gross amounts that we are committed to pay; however, we will record in our financial statements our proportionate share of costs based on our working interest which can vary based on volumes produced.
Future Delivery Commitments | We have various volume delivery commitments that are primarily related to our Marcellus Shale, Oklahoma and North Louisiana areas. We expect to be able to fulfill our contractual obligations from our own production; however, we may purchase third party volumes to satisfy our commitments or pay demand fees for commitment shortfalls, should they occur. As of December 31, 2016, our delivery commitments through 2030 were as follows:
