Related Party Transactions [Abstract] |
Related Party Transactions | Related Party Transactions In February 2019, Comstock sold certain leases covering 1,464 undeveloped net acres in Caddo Parish, Louisiana for $5.9 million to a partnership owned by the Company's majority stockholder. The proceeds from the sale were used to fund the purchase of a like number of net acres from a third party for $5.9 million. The acreage acquired was in part the acreage sold to the partnership or acreage in the same area. The purchase price paid per net acre was determined by the price paid by the Company to the third party. The Company operates and owns working interests in these properties along with the partnership owned by the majority stockholder. Comstock also drills and operates certain other properties for the partnership that the Company does not own working interest in. Comstock charges the partnership for the costs incurred to drill and operate the wells as well as drilling and operating overhead fees that it charges other working interest owners. Comstock also provides natural gas marketing services to the partnership, including evaluating potential markets and providing hedging services, and receives a fee equal to $0.02 per Mcf for natural gas marketed. Comstock received $134,000 and $718,000 in 2019 and 2020, respectively, for operating and marketing services provided to the partnership.
