Subsequent Events [Abstract]
SUBSEQUENT EVENTS	13. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On April 5, 2017, for the period beginning May 1, 2017 through December 31, 2017, the Company entered into crude oil swap contracts for 300 barrels per day at $52.40 per barrel. On May 2, 2017, the credit facility between U.S. Energy Corp.’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Energy One and Wells Fargo was sold, assigned and transferred to APEG Energy II, L.P. (“APEG”). APEG purchased and assumed all of Wells Fargo’s rights and obligations as the lender to Energy One under the credit facility. Concurrently, U.S. Energy Corp., Energy One and APEG entered into a Limited Forbearance Agreement dated May 2, 2017. The Company believes that the Forbearance Agreement will provide the parties sufficient time to work toward a long-term solution that enables the Company to execute its operational strategy and ensure value for existing shareholders. The credit facility requires the Company’s compliance with certain restricted financial covenants. The Company previously violated the financial ratio covenants for the fiscal quarters ended September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2016, which constituted an event of default under the credit agreement, and the violation of said covenants has continued in 2017. Subject to continued performance and compliance by the Company and Energy One with the terms and conditions of the Forbearance Agreement and credit facility, APEG has agreed not to exercise its rights and remedies arising as a result of certain existing and prospective events of default under the credit facility until July 30, 2017. Commencing on May 2, 2017, interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal balance of the loans under the credit facility at a rate of 8.75% per annum. In the event of default under the Forbearance Agreement, the forbearance period will terminate immediately and, without further notice or opportunity to cure, APEG will be entitled to exercise all of its rights and remedies under the credit facility and Forbearance Agreement, including acceleration of the debt and foreclosure. For additional information please see the 8-K filed by the Company on May 8, 2017.
