Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract] |
Acquisitions and Divestitures | Acquisitions and Divestitures 2022 Piceance Divestiture In January 2022, we completed the divestiture of all of our natural gas properties in Colorado, which were in the Piceance basin. The divestiture closed with a loss of approximately $2 million. Our 2021 production from these properties was 1.2 mboe/d. Antelope Creek Acquisition In February 2022, we completed the acquisition of oil and gas producing assets in the Antelope Creek area of Utah for approximately $18 million. These assets are adjacent to our existing Uinta assets and prior to our acquisition produced approximately 0.6 mboe/d. Purchases of Various Oil and Gas Properties During 2022, we also acquired various oil and gas properties, most of which consisted of unproved properties for approximately $8 million in aggregate. 2021 C&J Well Services Acquisition On October 1, 2021, we acquired one of the largest well servicing and abandonment businesses in California, which operates as CJWS. The purchase price was $53 million, including closing adjustments mainly related to working capital, which we funded with cash on hand of $51 million in 2021 and $2 million in 2022. The CJWS transaction costs were approximately $3 million. The acquired business activities are owned and operated by C&J Well Services, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Berry Corp. formed for the purposes of acquiring these businesses and establishing an independent well services and abandonment company. The CJWS transaction was accounted for as a business combination under the acquisition method of accounting. When determining the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, management made significant estimates, judgments and assumptions. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed are included in the well servicing and abandonment segment. The unaudited pro forma information presented below has been prepared to give effect to the CJWS acquisition as if it had occurred at the beginning of the periods presented. The unaudited pro forma information includes the effects from the allocation of the acquisition purchase price on depreciation and amortization as well as the CJWS acquisition costs charged to earnings during the 2021 period. The unaudited pro forma information is presented for illustration purposes only and is based on estimates and assumptions the Company deemed appropriate. The following unaudited pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of the results that would have been achieved if the CJWS acquisition had occurred in the past, and should not be relied upon as an indication of the operating results that the Company would have achieved if the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the periods presented, and our operating results, or the future results.

Placerita Divestiture In October 2021, our E&P segment completed the sale of our Placerita Field property in the Ventura Basin in Los Angeles County, California for approximately $14 million. We recorded a gain on the sale of approximately $2 million in 2021. 2020 In May 2020, we acquired approximately 740 net acres in the North Midway Sunset Field for approximately $5 million. We paid $2 million at closing and the remaining $3 million was paid following our first production from this property, in the fourth quarter 2020. This property is adjacent to, and extends, our existing producing area and we have identified numerous future drilling locations. We believe additional opportunities exist in other productive reservoirs of this property. We also acquired all existing idle wells on this property, some of which we plan to return to production in the near future as price and strategy dictate. We will plug and abandon the remaining idle wells pursuant to our California idle well management plan. We recorded a $6 million liability for asset retirement obligations of the existing wells on this property. We also acquired approximately 267 acres in McKittrick Field which will allow us to continue development of the 21Z mineral fee and leases without requiring written approval from a third party surface fee owner for infrastructure on or across the surface fee property. The purchase price was not material.
