Debt Disclosure [Abstract] |
Long-Term Debt | Note 5 - Long-Term Debt Credit Agreement On August 2, 2022, the Company entered into a Seventh Amended and Restated Credit Agreement by and among the Company, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent and Swingline Lender (“Agent”), and the institutions named therein as lenders. The Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured revolving credit facility with a maximum loan amount of $3.0 billion, an initial borrowing base of $2.5 billion, and initial aggregate lender commitments totaling $1.25 billion. As of September 30, 2022, the borrowing base and aggregate lender commitments under the Credit Agreement remained unchanged. The revolving credit facility is secured by substantially all of the Company’s proved oil and gas properties. The borrowing base is subject to regular, semi-annual redetermination, and considers the value of both the Company’s (a) proved oil and gas properties reflected in the Company’s most recent reserve report; and (b) commodity derivative contracts, each as determined by the Company’s lender group. The next scheduled borrowing base redetermination date is April 1, 2023. The Credit Agreement is scheduled to mature on the earlier of (a) August 2, 2027 (“Stated Maturity Date”), or (b) 91 days prior to the maturity date of any of the Company’s outstanding Senior Notes, as defined below, to the extent that, on or before such date, the respective Senior Notes have not been repaid, exchanged, repurchased, refinanced, or otherwise redeemed in full, and, if refinanced or exchanged, with a scheduled maturity date that is not earlier than at least 180 days after the Stated Maturity Date. In addition to other terms, conditions, agreements, and provisions, the Credit Agreement establishes the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as the benchmark for determining interest rates in replacement of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). LIBOR was discontinued as a global reference rate for new loans and contracts after December 31, 2021. The financial covenants under the Credit Agreement require, among other customary covenants, that the Company’s (a) total funded debt, as defined by the Credit Agreement, to 12-month trailing adjusted EBITDAX ratio cannot be greater than 3.50 to 1.00 on the last day of each fiscal quarter; and (b) adjusted current ratio, as defined in the Credit Agreement, cannot be less than 1.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of any fiscal quarter. Interest and commitment fees associated with the revolving credit facility are accrued based on a borrowing base utilization grid set forth in the Credit Agreement, as presented in the table below. At the Company’s election, borrowings under the Credit Agreement may be in the form of SOFR, Alternate Base Rate (“ABR”), or Swingline loans. SOFR loans accrue interest at SOFR plus the applicable margin from the utilization grid, and ABR and Swingline loans accrue interest at a market-based floating rate, plus the applicable margin from the utilization grid. Commitment fees are accrued on the unused portion of the aggregate lender commitment amount at rates from the utilization grid.
Borrowing Base Utilization Percentage |  | <25% |  | ≥25% <50% |  | ≥50% <75% |  | ≥75% <90% |  | ≥90%
SOFR Loans |  | 2.000 | % |  | 2.250 | % |  | 2.500 | % |  | 2.750 | % |  | 3.000 | %
