Derivative Instruments Derivative Instruments
Oil and Natural Gas Contracts
The Company uses commodity based derivative contracts to reduce exposure to fluctuations in oil and natural gas prices. While the use of these contracts partially limits the downside risk for adverse price changes, their use can also partially limit future revenues from favorable price changes. We have not designated our derivative contracts as hedges for accounting purposes, and therefore changes in the fair value of derivatives are included and recognized in other income (expense) in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.
As of September 30, 2024, the Company’s oil and natural gas derivative instruments consisted of fixed price swaps, costless collars, and basis swaps. The following table summarizes the open financial derivative positions as of September 30, 2024, related to our future oil and natural gas production:

Interest Rate Contracts
The Company entered into floating-to-fixed interest rate swaps, in which it will receive a floating market rate equal to one-month CME Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate and will pay a fixed interest rate, to manage future interest rate exposure related to the Company’s Credit Facility. In March 2024, the Company entered into a fixed-to-floating interest rate swap for the period from May 2024 to December 2024, to reduce our interest rate exposure, which resulted in a gain of approximately $1 million on a notional amount of $80 million. The remaining gain of $0.4 million will be realized upon settlement of the contracts in 2024.
At the time of settlement of these interest rate derivative contracts, gain or loss on settlement will be included in interest expense on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Gains on interest rate swaps were $0.4 million and $0.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.
