Restructuring And Related Activities [Abstract] |
Exit and Termination Costs | (14) EXIT AND TERMINATION COSTS Exit Costs In August 2020, we sold our North Louisiana assets and retained certain gathering, transportation and processing obligations which extend into 2030. These are contracts where we will not realize any future benefit. The estimated obligations are included in current and long-term divestiture contract obligation in our consolidated balance sheets. In first six months 2021, we recorded accretion expense of $25.0 million. In second quarter 2021, we recorded a net favorable adjustment of $28.2 million to reduce this obligation due to a reduction of certain contractual payments compared to those originally estimated and a change to our estimated drilling plans of the buyer. The estimated discounted divestiture contract obligation was $436.1 million at June 30, 2021. In second quarter 2020, we negotiated capacity releases on certain transportation pipelines in Pennsylvania effective May 31, 2020 and extending through the remainder of the contract. We recorded termination costs of $10.4 million which represented the discounted present value of our remaining obligation to the third-party. The estimated remaining discounted obligation for these transportation capacity releases as of June 30, 2021 was $8.4 million. Termination Costs In first quarter 2020, we completed the sale of our shallow legacy assets in northwestern Pennsylvania and we recorded $1.6 million of severance costs which is primarily related to the sale of these assets. The following summarizes our exit and termination costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands):
