Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] |
Derivatives | Derivatives Commodity Derivatives The Company is exposed to commodity price risk, which impacts the predictability of its cash flows from the sale of oil and natural gas. The Company seeks to manage this risk through the use of commodity derivative contracts, which allow the Company to limit its exposure to commodity price volatility on a portion of its forecasted oil and natural gas sales. The Company has not designated any of its derivative contracts as hedges for accounting purposes and records all derivative contracts at fair value with changes in derivative contract fair values recognized in earnings. None of the Company’s commodity derivative contracts may be terminated prior to contractual maturity solely as a result of a downgrade in the credit rating of a party to the contract. Cash settlements and valuation gains and losses on commodity derivative contracts are included in (gain) loss on derivative contracts in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. Commodity derivative contracts are settled on a monthly or quarterly basis. At June 30, 2017, the Company’s commodity derivative contracts consisted of fixed price swaps under which the Company receives a fixed price for the contract and pays a floating market price to the counterparty over a specified period for a contracted volume. The Company recorded (gain) loss on commodity derivative contracts of $(23.5) million and $8.0 million for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2017, and 2016, respectively, which include net cash receipts upon settlement of $3.3 million and $32.4 million, respectively. The Company recorded (gain) loss on commodity derivative contracts of $(57.7) million and $5.2 million for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2017, and 2016, respectively, which include net cash receipts upon settlement of $2.7 million and $58.0 million, respectively. Included in the net cash receipts for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2016, are $11.5 million of cash receipts related to certain commodity derivative contracts settled prior to their contractual maturities (“early settlements”). Master Netting Agreements and the Right of Offset. The Company has master netting agreements with all of its commodity derivative counterparties and has presented its derivative assets and liabilities with the same counterparty on a net basis in the consolidated balance sheets. As a result of the netting provisions, the Company's maximum amount of loss under commodity derivative transactions due to credit risk is limited to the net amounts due from its counterparties. As of June 30, 2017, the counterparties to the Company’s open commodity derivative contracts consisted of seven financial institutions, all of which are also lenders under the Company’s Credit Facility. The Company is not required to post additional collateral under its commodity derivative contracts as all of the counterparties to the Company’s commodity derivative contracts share in the collateral supporting the Company’s Credit Facility. The following tables summarize (i) the Company's commodity derivative contracts on a gross basis, (ii) the effects of netting assets and liabilities for which the right of offset exists based on master netting arrangements and (iii) for the Company’s net derivative liability positions, the applicable portion of shared collateral under the Credit Facility as of June 30, 2017, and the First Lien Exit Facility as of December 31, 2016 (in thousands): June 30, 2017
