Fair Value Measurements [Abstract] |
Fair Value Measurements | 9. Fair Value Measurements ﻿ FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, establishes a framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under FASB ASC 820 are described as follows: ﻿ Level 1 – Observable inputs, such as unadjusted quoted prices in active markets, for substantially identical assets and liabilities. ﻿ Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices within Level 1 for similar assets and liabilities. These include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. If the asset or liability has a specified or contractual term, the input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. ﻿ Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, generally requiring a significant amount of judgment by management. The assets or liabilities fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. ﻿ The methods described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Further, although the Company believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date. ﻿ Upon completion of wells, the Company records an asset retirement obligation at fair value using Level 3 assumptions. ﻿ Nonfinancial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis upon impairment. In 2020, the Company recorded a ceiling test impairment of its oil and gas properties. The carrying amounts of other financial instruments including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, account payables, accrued liabilities, lease liabilities, and long-term debt in our balance sheet approximates fair value as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.
