Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
Fair Value Measurements Fair Value Measurements
Certain of the Company’s assets and liabilities are measured at fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. We use market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
The Company has categorized its assets and liabilities at fair value into a three-level fair value hierarchy based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). Assets and liabilities that use Level 2 inputs include the Company’s fixed price swaps, basis swaps, and collars.
The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable and other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets approximate fair value because of their short-term nature. Additionally, the carrying value of outstanding borrowings under our Credit Facility approximates fair value because the interest rates are variable and reflective of market rates. We consider the fair value of our Credit Facility to be a Level 2 measurement on the fair value hierarchy.
The Notes were issued in a private placement and are carried at amortized cost. The estimated fair value of the Notes is determined using observable market inputs, including prices and yields for similar debt instruments with comparable terms and maturities, and is categorized as a Level 2 fair value measurement within the fair value hierarchy. As of March 31, 2026, the carrying value of the Notes approximated their estimated fair value.
Recurring Fair Value Measurements

Derivative assets and liabilities are categorized within the above fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. We have classified our derivative instruments into levels depending upon the data utilized to determine their fair values. The Company uses industry-standard models that consider various assumptions including current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, implied market volatility, time value, nonperformance risk, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these inputs are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument and can be supported by observable data. As such, we use Level 2 inputs to measure the fair value of commodity derivative contracts.
