Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS: CNX determines the fair value of assets and liabilities based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The fair values are based on assumptions that market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in valuation techniques and the inputs to valuations. The fair value hierarchy is based on whether the inputs to valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources (including NYMEX forward curves, LIBOR-based discount rates and basis forward curves), while unobservable inputs reflect the Company's own assumptions of what market participants would use. The fair value hierarchy includes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value as described below: Level 1 - Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. Level 2 - The fair value of the assets and liabilities included in Level 2 are based on standard industry income approach models that use significant observable inputs, including NYMEX forward curves, LIBOR-based discount rates and basis forward curves. Level 3 - Unobservable inputs significant to the fair value measurement supported by little or no market activity. In those cases when the inputs used to measure fair value meet the definition of more than one level of the fair value hierarchy, the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its totality determines the applicable level in the fair value hierarchy. The financial instrument measured at fair value on a recurring basis is summarized below:
| Fair Value Measurements at December 31, 2020 |  | Fair Value Measurements at December 31, 2019
Description | Level 1 |  | Level 2 |  | Level 3 |  | Level 1 |  | Level 2 |  | Level 3
Gas Derivatives | $ | — |  |  | $ | 117,545 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 405,781 |  |  | $ | — |
Interest Rate Swaps | $ | — |  |  | $ | (14,270) |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | (1,219) |  |  | $ | — |
The carrying amounts and fair values of financial instruments for which the fair value option was not elected are as follows:
| December 31, 2020 |  | December 31, 2019
| Carrying Amount |  | Fair Value |  | Carrying Amount |  | Fair Value
Cash and Cash Equivalents | $ | 15,617 |  |  | $ | 15,617 |  |  | $ | 16,283 |  |  | $ | 16,283 |
Long-Term Debt (Excluding Debt Issuance Costs) | $ | 2,450,853 |  |  | $ | 2,638,251 |  |  | $ | 2,763,433 |  |  | $ | 2,619,676 |
Cash and cash equivalents represent highly-liquid instruments and constitute Level 1 fair value measurements. Certain of the Company’s debt is actively traded on a public market and, as a result, constitute Level 1 fair value measurements. The portion of the Company’s debt obligations that is not actively traded is valued through reference to the applicable underlying benchmark rate and, as a result, constitute Level 2 fair value measurements.
