Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation Basis of presentation — The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Patterson-UTI Energy, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and consolidating interest of a joint venture (collectively referred to herein as “we,” “us,” “our,” “ours” and like terms). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Patterson-UTI Energy, Inc. conducts its business operations through its wholly-owned subsidiaries and has no employees or independent operations. Certain immaterial prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. The U.S. dollar is the reporting currency and functional currency for most of our operations except certain of our foreign subsidiaries, which use their local currencies as their functional currency. Assets and liabilities of these foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates in effect as of the balance sheet date. The effects of these translation adjustments are reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income, which is a separate component of stockholders’ equity. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by us pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although we believe the disclosures included either on the face of the financial statements or herein are sufficient to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of the information in conformity with GAAP have been included. The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023, as presented herein, was derived from our audited consolidated balance sheet but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (our “Annual Report”). The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies from those disclosed in our Annual Report. Restricted cash — Restricted cash includes amounts restricted as cash collateral for the issuance of standby letters of credit. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash and restricted cash reported within the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets that sum to the total of such amounts shown in the unaudited condensed statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

Recently Issued Accounting Standards — In March 2020, the FASB issued an accounting standards update to provide temporary optional expedients that simplify the accounting for contract modifications to existing debt agreements expected to arise from the market transition from LIBOR to alternative reference rates. The amendments in the update are effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022 and may be applied to contract modifications from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020. In December 2022, the FASB issued an update, which deferred the sunset date to December 31, 2024. We do not expect this new guidance will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In November 2023, the FASB issued an accounting standards update to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements and enhance disclosures about significant segment expenses. The amendments in the update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 on a retrospective basis. We are currently evaluating the effect of this pronouncement on our disclosures. In December 2023, the FASB issued an accounting standards update to improve income tax disclosure requirements. The amendments in the update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and should be applied prospectively. We are currently evaluating the effect of this pronouncement on our disclosures.
