Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | Note 6 - Commitments and Contingencies Commitments Other than those items discussed below, there have been no changes in commitments through the filing of this report that differ materially from those disclosed in the 2020 Form 10-K. Please refer to Note 6 - Commitments and Contingencies in the 2020 Form 10-K for additional discussion of the Company’s commitments. Drilling Rig Service Contracts. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company amended certain of its drilling rig contracts resulting in the extension of contract terms. As of September 30, 2021, the Company’s drilling rig commitments totaled $8.6 million under contract terms extending through the second quarter of 2022. If all of these contracts were terminated as of September 30, 2021, the Company would avoid a portion of the contractual service commitments; however, the Company would be required to pay $5.1 million in early termination fees. No material expenses related to early termination or standby fees were incurred by the Company during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, and the Company does not expect to incur material penalties with regard to its drilling rig contracts during the remainder of 2021. Drilling and Completion Commitments. During the first quarter of 2021, the Company amended an agreement that includes minimum drilling and completion footage requirements on certain existing leases. If these minimum requirements are not satisfied by March 31, 2022, the Company will be required to pay liquidated damages based on the difference between the actual footage drilled and completed and the minimum requirements. As of September 30, 2021, the liquidated damages could range from zero to a maximum of $25.9 million, with the maximum exposure assuming no additional development activity occurred prior to March 31, 2022. As of the filing of this report, the Company expects to meet its obligations under this agreement. Other Contracts. During the second quarter of 2021, the Company entered into an operating lease with a total estimated obligation of $25.8 million and an initial term extending through the second quarter of 2033. As of the filing of this report, the Company expects to meet this commitment. Contingencies The Company is subject to litigation and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company accrues for such items when a liability is both probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. In the opinion of management, the anticipated results of any pending litigation and claims are not expected to have a material effect on the results of operations, the financial position, or the cash flows of the Company.
