1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

ASU 2016-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, simplifies the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification on the statement of cash flows, accounting for forfeitures, and classification of awards as either equity or liabilities. As a result of adopting this ASU on January 1, 2017, share-based compensation excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies are reflected on a prospective basis in the income statement as a component of the provision for income taxes rather than additional paid-in capital as previously recognized. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recognized a $13 million tax deficiency as an increase to the provision for income taxes. Cash flows related to excess tax benefits are classified on a prospective basis as operating activities in the statement of cash flows rather than cash inflows from financing activities and cash outflows from operating activities as previously recognized. Prior periods of the statement of cash flows were not adjusted as there was no material impact. In addition, the Company elected to begin accounting for share-based compensation award forfeitures when they occur instead of estimating the number of forfeitures expected. This change in accounting policy for share-based compensation award forfeitures did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

New Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted  ASU 2017-07, Compensation—Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost, requires presentation of service cost in the same line item(s) as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by employees during the period and presentation of the remaining components of net benefit cost in a separate line item outside operating items. Additionally, only the service cost component of net benefit cost will be eligible for capitalization. The FASB issuedCompany will adopt this ASU 2016-02,on January 1, 2018, with retrospective presentation of the service cost component and the other components of net benefit cost in the income statement and prospective presentation for the capitalization of the service cost component of net benefit cost in assets. Upon adoption, non-service cost components of net periodic benefit costs of $225 million for the year ended 2016 and $69 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 will be reclassified to other (income) expense, net, from G&A; oil and gas operating; gathering, processing, and marketing; and exploration expense. The Company does not expect any other material changes upon adoption of this ASU.
ASU 2016-18, LeasesStatement of Cash Flows (Topic 842). 230): Restricted Cash,This ASU requires an entity to explain the lesseeschanges in the total of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and restricted cash equivalents on the statement of cash flows and to recognizeprovide a lease liabilityreconciliation of the totals in that statement to the related captions in the balance sheet when the cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and a right-of-use asset for all leases, including operating leases, with a term greaterrestricted cash equivalents are presented in more than 12 monthsone line item on the balance sheet and disclose key information about their leasing transactions.sheet.

The Company is evaluating the impact ofwill adopt this ASU on January 1, 2018, and does not expect the adoption of this ASUto have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, provides clarification on how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified on the statement of cash flows. This ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and is required to be adopted using a retrospective approach if practicable, with early adoption permitted. The FASB issued Company will adopt this ASU on January 1, 2018, and does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), ,which supersedes current revenue recognition requirements and industry-specific guidance. The codification was amended through additional ASUs and, as amended, requires an entity to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. Additional disclosures will be required to describe the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows from contracts with customers. The Company has completed an initial review of contracts in each of its revenue streams and is requireddeveloping accounting policies to adoptaddress the new standard inprovisions of the first quarter of 2018 using one of two retrospective application methods. TheASU. While the Company does not currently expect net earnings to be materially impacted, the Company is continuingcurrently analyzing whether total revenues and total expenses may increase as a result of recognizing both revenue for noncash consideration for services provided by our midstream business and revenue and associated cost of product for the subsequent sale of commodities received as such noncash consideration. Anadarko continues to evaluate the impact of this and other provisions of thisthe ASU and has not determined the impact this standard may have on its accounting policies, internal controls, and consolidated financial statements and related disclosures or decided uponand has not finalized any estimates of the potential impacts. The Company will adopt this new standard on January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective method with a cumulative adjustment to retained earnings.
ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), requires lessees to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use asset for all leases, including operating leases, with a term greater than 12 months on the balance sheet. The provisions of ASU 2016-02 also modify the definition of a lease and outline the requirements for recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of leasing arrangements by both lessees and lessors. This ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and a modified retrospective approach is required for all comparative periods presented. The Company plans to elect certain practical expedients when implementing the new lease standard, which means the Company will not have to reassess the accounting for contracts that commenced prior to adoption. The Company is continuing to analyze its portfolio of contracts to assess the application of this ASU to certain types of contracts and the impact that adoption will have on its consolidated financial statements. The Company is also evaluating its current lease administration systems and business processes.

Represents the after-tax The primary assumptions used to estimate undiscounted future net investment.cash flows include anticipated future production, commodity prices, and capital and operating costs.

Impairments during the six months ended June 30, 2015,2017, were primarily related to the Company’s Greater Natural Buttes oil and gas and midstream properties in the Rockies, which were impairedGulf of Mexico due to lower forecasted commodity prices.
In additionprices and a U.S. onshore midstream property due to the long-lived asset impairments above, the Company recognized a $935 million impairment of unproved Greater Natural Buttes properties during the six months ended June 30, 2015,reduced throughput fee as a result of lower commodity prices.a producer’s bankruptcy.

Impairments of Unproved Properties Impairments of unproved properties are included in exploration expense in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company recognized $555 million of impairments of unproved Gulf of Mexico properties during the six months ended June 30, 2017, primarily due to an impairment of $463 million to the Shenandoah project. The unproved property balance related to the Shenandoah project originated from the purchase price allocated to Gulf of Mexico exploration projects from the acquisition of Kerr-McGee Corporation in 2006. For additional details on the Shenandoah project, see Note 5—Exploratory Well Costs.

Potential for Future Impairments  

Oil price sensitivity At June 30, 2017, the Company’s estimate of undiscounted future cash flows attributable to certain asset groups, primarily related to international and offshore properties, with a combined net book value of approximately $2.1 billion indicated that the carrying amounts were expected to be recovered; however, these asset groups may be at risk for impairment if the estimates of future cash flows decline. The Company estimates that a 10% decline in oil prices (with all other assumptions unchanged) could result in non-cash impairments in excess of $800 million.

Natural-gas price sensitivity  At June 30, 2017, the Company’s estimate of undiscounted future cash flows attributable to certain U.S. onshore asset groups with a combined net book value of approximately $1.0 billion indicated that the carrying amounts were expected to be recovered; however, these asset groups may be at risk for impairment if the estimates of future cash flows decline. The Company estimates that a 10% decline in natural-gas prices (with all other assumptions unchanged) could result in non-cash impairments in excess of $500 million.
It is also reasonably possible that prolonged low or furthersignificant declines in commodity prices, further changes to the Company’s drilling plans in response to lower prices, reduction of proved and probable reserve estimates, or increases in drilling or operating costs could result in futureother additional impairments.

5. Suspended Exploratory Well Costs

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, exploratory well costs were expensed for certain exploratory wells that did not encounter commercial quantities of hydrocarbons or that the Company determined were no longer making sufficient progress for continued capitalization of the exploratory well costs.
In the first quarter of 2017, the Company expensed exploratory well costs of $435 million related to the Shenandoah project in the Gulf of Mexico. The Shenandoah-6 appraisal well and subsequent sidetrack, which completed appraisal activities in April 2017, did not encounter the oil-water contact in the eastern portion of the field. Given the results of this well and the commodity-price environment, the Company suspended further appraisal activities.
During the second quarter of 2017, the Company expensed exploratory well costs of $241 million related to the Grand Fuerte area in Colombia due to insufficient progress on contractual and fiscal reforms needed for a deepwater gas development. All leases remain contractually in good standing.
During the second quarter of 2017, the Company also expensed exploratory well costs of $119 million in Côte d’Ivoire due to unsuccessful drilling activities in the south channel of the Paon prospect and in Block CI-527.
The Company’s suspended exploratory well costs were $888 million at June 30, 2017, and $1.2 billion at June 30, 2016, and $1.1 billion at December 31, 2015. The increase in suspended exploratory well costs during 2016 is primarily related to the capitalization of costs associated with appraisal activities in Côte d’Ivoire. There were no material charges to exploration expense during the six months ended June 30, 2016, related to suspended exploratory well costs previously capitalized for a period greater than one year since the completion of drilling at December 31, 2015.2016. Projects with suspended exploratory well costs are those identified by management as exhibitinginclude wells that have sufficient quantities of hydrocarbonsreserves to justify potential developmentcompletion as a producing well and where managementsufficient progress is actively pursuing efforts to assess whetherbeing made in assessing the reserves can be attributed to these projects.and the economic and operating viability of the project. If additional information becomes available that raises substantial doubt as to the economic or operational viability of any of these projects, the associated costs will be expensed at that time.

7. Derivative Instruments

Objective and Strategy  The Company uses derivative instruments to manage its exposure to cash-flow variability from commodity-price and interest-rate risks. Futures, swaps, and options are used to manage exposure to commodity-price risk inherent in the Company’s oil and natural-gas production and natural-gas processing operations (Oil and Natural-Gas Production/Processing Derivative Activities). Futures contracts and commodity-price swap agreements are used to fix the price of expected future oil and natural-gas sales at major industry trading locations such as Cushing, Oklahoma or Sullom Voe, Scotland for oil and Henry Hub, Louisiana for natural gas. Basis swaps are periodically used to fix or float the price differential between product prices at one market location versus another. Options are used to establish a floor price, a ceiling price, or a floor and a ceiling price (collar) for expected future oil and natural-gas sales. Derivative instruments are also used to manage commodity-price risk inherent in customer price requirements and to fix margins on the future sale of natural gas and NGLs from the Company’s leased storage facilities (Marketing and Trading Derivative Activities).
Interest-rate swaps are used to fix or float interest rates on existing or anticipated indebtedness. The purpose of these instruments is to manage the Company’s existing or anticipated exposure to interest-rate changes. The fair value of the Company’s current interest-rate swap portfolio is subject to changes in interest rates.
The Company does not apply hedge accounting to any of its derivative instruments. As a result, gains and losses associated with derivative instruments are recognized currently in earnings. Net derivative losses attributable to derivatives previously subject to hedge accounting reside in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and are reclassified to earnings as the transactions to which the derivatives relate are recognized in earnings. See Note 15—Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss).

A three-way collar is a combination of three options: a sold call, a purchased put, and a sold put. The sold call establishes the maximum price that the Company will receive for the contracted commodity volumes. The purchased put establishes the minimum price that the Company will receive for the contracted volumes unless the market price for the commodity falls below the sold put strike price, at which point the minimum price equals the reference price (e.g., NYMEX) plus the excess of the purchased put strike price over the sold put strike price.

Derivative settlements and collateralization are classified as cash flows from operating activities unless the derivatives contain an other-than-insignificant financing element, in which case the settlements and collateralization are classified as cash flows from financing activities. As a result of prior extensions of reference-period start dates without settlement of the related interest-rate derivative obligations, the interest-rate derivatives in the Company’s portfolio contain an other-than-insignificant financing element, and therefore, any settlements, collateralization, or collateralizationcash payments for amendments related to these extended interest-rate derivatives are classified as cash flows from financing activities.

6.7. Derivative Instruments (Continued)

Credit-Risk Considerations  The financial integrity of exchange-traded contracts, which are subject to nominal credit risk, is assured by NYMEX or ICE through systems of financial safeguards and transaction guarantees. Over-the-counter traded swaps, options, and futures contracts expose the Company to counterparty credit risk. The Company monitors the creditworthiness of its counterparties, establishes credit limits according to the Company’s credit policies and guidelines, and assesses the impact on the fair value of its counterparties’ creditworthiness. The Company has the ability to require cash collateral or letters of credit to mitigate its credit-risk exposure.
The Company has netting agreements with financial institutions that permit net settlement of gross commodity derivative assets against gross commodity derivative liabilities and routinely exercises its contractual right to offset gains and losses when settling with derivative counterparties. In addition, the Company has setoff agreements with certain financial institutions that may be exercised in the event of default and provide for contract termination and net settlement across derivative types. At June 30, 2016, $100 million of the Company’s $1.922 billion gross derivative liability balance, and at December 31, 2015, $347 million of the Company’s $1.722 billion gross derivative liability balance, would have been eligible for setoff against the Company’s gross derivative asset balance in the event of default. Other than in the event of default, the Company does not net settle across derivative types.
The Company’s derivative instruments are subject to individually negotiated credit provisions that may require collateral of cash or letters of credit depending on the derivative’s portfolio valuation versus negotiated credit thresholds. These credit thresholds may also require full or partial collateralization or immediate settlement of the Company’s obligations if certain credit-risk-related provisions are triggered, such as if the Company’s credit rating from major credit rating agenciesS&P and Moody’s declines to a level that is below investment grade. In February 2016, Moody’s Investors Service (Moody’s) downgradedAs of June 30, 2017, the Company’s long-term debtcredit rating from “Baa2” to “Ba1,” which is was rated below investment grade. The downgrade triggered credit-risk-related features withgrade (Ba1) by Moody’s and investment grade (BBB) by both S&P and Fitch Ratings. Although certain derivative counterparties and required the Company to post collateral under its derivative instruments. The amount of cash posted as collateral pursuantdue to the contractual requirements applicable to derivative instruments with financial institutions was $599 million at June 30, 2016, and $58 million at December 31, 2015. NoMoody’s rating, no counterparties have requested termination or full settlement of derivative positions. The aggregate fair value of derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features for which a net liability position existed was $1.3$1.2 billion (net of $177 million of collateral) at each of June 30, 2016,2017, and $1.4 billion (net of $117 million of collateral) at December 31, 2015.2016.

Fair Value  Fair value of futures contracts is based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, which represent Level 1 inputs. Valuations of physical-delivery purchase and sale agreements, over-the-counter financial swaps, and commodity option collars are based on similar transactions observable in active markets and industry-standard models that primarily rely on market-observable inputs. Inputs used to estimate fair value in industry-standard models are categorized as Level 2 inputs because substantially all assumptions and inputs are observable in active markets throughout the full term of the instruments. Inputs used to estimate the fair value of swaps and options include market-price curves; contract terms and prices; credit-risk adjustments; and, for Black-Scholes option valuations, discount factors and implied market volatility.

7. Tangible Equity Units

In June 2015, the Company issued 9.2 million 7.50% tangible equity units (TEUs) at a stated amount of $50.00 per TEU for net proceeds of $445 million. Each TEU is comprised of a prepaid equity purchase contract for common units of WGP and a senior amortizing note. Subsequent to issuance, each TEU may be legally separated into the two components. The prepaid equity purchase contract is considered a freestanding financial instrument, indexed to WGP common units, and meets the conditions for equity classification. The prepaid equity purchase contracts are included in noncontrolling interests, net of issuance costs, and the senior amortizing notes are included in short-term debt and long-term debt on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Equity ComponentUnless settled earlier at the holder’s option, each purchase contract has a mandatory settlement date of June 7, 2018. Anadarko has a right to elect to issue and deliver shares of Anadarko Petroleum Corporation common stock (APC shares) in lieu of delivering WGP common units at settlement. The Company will deliver not more than 0.8591 WGP common units and not less than 0.7159 WGP common units (or a computed number of APC shares) per TEU on the settlement date, subject to adjustment, at the settlement rate based upon the applicable market value of WGP common units (or APC shares).8. Debt

Debt Component Each senior amortizing note has an initial principal amount of $10.95 and bears interest at 1.50% per year. On September 7, 2015, Anadarko began paying equal quarterly cash installments of $0.9375 per amortizing note (except for the September 7, 2015 installment payment, which was $0.9063 per amortizing note). The payments constitute a payment of interest and partial repayment of principal, with the aggregate per-year payments of principal and interest equating to a 7.50% cash payment with respect to each TEU. The senior amortizing notes have a final installment payment date of June 7, 2018, and are senior unsecured obligations of the Company.

The Company’s tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of its annual current and deferred effective tax rates, adjusted for discrete items. Each quarter, the Company updates these rates and records a cumulative adjustment to current and deferred tax expense by applying the rates to the year-to-date pre-tax income excluding discrete items. The Company’s quarterly estimate of its annual current and deferred effective tax rates can vary significantly based on various forecasted items including future commodity prices, capital expenditures, expenses for which tax benefits are not recognized, and the geographic mix of pre-tax income and losses.
The Company reported a loss before income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016,2017 and the six months ended June 30, 2015. As a result, items that ordinarily increase or2016. The decrease the tax rate will have the opposite effect. The variance from the 35% U.S. federal statutory rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015,2017, was primarily attributable to the following decreases:

These decreases were partially offset by the following increases:
state taxes, net of federal benefit
non-deductible Algerian exceptional profits tax for Algerian income tax purposes and
net changes in uncertain tax positions
The decrease from the 35% U.S. federal statutory rate for the six months ended June 30, 2017, was primarily attributable to the following decreases:

10. Conveyance of Future Hard Minerals Royalty Revenues

During the first quarter of 2016, the Company conveyed a limited-term nonparticipating royalty interest in certain of its coal and trona leases to a third party for $413 million, net of transaction costs. Such conveyance entitles the third party to receive up to $553 million in future royalty revenue over a period of not less than 10 years and not greater than 15 years. Additionally, such third party is entitled to receive 3% of the aggregate royalties earned during the first 10 years between $800 million and $900 million and 4% of the aggregate royalties earned during the first 10 years that exceed $900 million. Generally, such third party relies solely on the royalty payments to recover its investment and, as such, has the risk of the royalties not being sufficient to recover its investment over the term of the conveyance.
Proceeds from this transaction have been accounted for as deferred revenues and are included in accrued expenses and other long-term liabilities on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. The deferred revenues will be amortized to other revenues, included in gains (losses) on divestitures and other, net on a unit-of-revenue basis over the term of the agreement. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company amortized $19 million of deferred revenues as a result of this agreement. Proceeds from the transaction and payments to the third party are reported in financing activities in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.
The Company will make the first payment for royalties in September 2016. The specified future amounts that the Company expects to pay and the payment timing are subject to change based upon the actual royalties received by the Company during the term of the conveyance. The following summarizes the future amounts, prior to the 3% to 4% of any excess described above, that the Company expects to pay:

11.10. Contingencies

Litigation  The following is a discussion of anyThere are no material developments in previously reported contingencies andnor are there any other material matters that have arisen since the filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Deepwater Horizon Events  In April 2010, the Macondo well in the Gulf of Mexico blew out and an explosion occurred on the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig, resulting in an oil spill. The well was operated by BP Exploration and Production Inc. (BP) and Anadarko held a 25% nonoperated interest. In October 2011, the Company and BP entered into a settlement agreement relating to the Deepwater Horizon events (Settlement Agreement). Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Company is fully indemnified by BP against all claims and damages arising under the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA), claims for natural resource damages (NRD) and assessment costs, and any claims arising under the Operating Agreement with BP.
Numerous Deepwater Horizon event-related civil lawsuits were filed against BP and other parties, including the Company. Generally, the plaintiffs sought actual damages, punitive damages, declaratory judgment, and/or injunctive relief. This litigation was consolidated into a federal Multidistrict Litigation (MDL) action pending before Judge Carl Barbier in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana in New Orleans, Louisiana (Louisiana District Court).

BP Consent Decree In July 2015, BP announced a settlement agreement in principle with the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and certain states and local government entities regarding essentially all of the outstanding claims against BP related to the Deepwater Horizon event (BP Settlement) and, in October 2015, lodged a proposed consent decree with the Louisiana District Court. In April 2016, the Louisiana District Court approved the consent decree. As a result of the BP Settlement and approval of the consent decree, all liability relating to OPA-related environmental costs was resolved and all NRD claims and claims by the United States and the Gulf states impacted by the event relating to the MDL action were dismissed. For any remaining claims relating to the MDL action, the Company is fully indemnified by BP against any losses pursuant to the Settlement Agreement. For additional disclosure related to the Deepwater Horizon events, see Note 15ContingenciesDeepwater Horizon Events in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Penalties and Fines  In December 2010, the DOJ, on behalf of the United States, filed a civil lawsuit in the Louisiana District Court against several parties, including the Company, seeking an assessment of civil penalties under the Clean Water Act (CWA) in an amount to be determined by the Louisiana District Court. After previously finding that Anadarko, as a nonoperating investor in the Macondo well, was not culpable with respect to the Deepwater Horizon events, the Louisiana District Court found Anadarko liable for civil penalties under Section 311 of the CWA as a working-interest owner in the Macondo well and entered a judgment of $159.5 million in December 2015. Neither party appealed the decision and the Company paid the penalty in the first quarter of 2016.

17. Variable Interest Entities (Continued)

Financial Support Provided to VIEs Concurrent with the closing of its May 2008 initial public offering,IPO, WES loaned the Company $260 million in exchange for a 30-year note bearing interest at a fixed annual rate of 6.50%, payable quarterly. The related interest income for WES was $4 million for each of the three months ended June 30, 20162017 and 2015,2016, and $8 million for each of the six months ended June 30, 20162017 and 2015.2016. The note receivable and related interest income are eliminated in consolidation.
In March 2015, WES acquired the Company’s interest in Delaware Basin JV Gathering LLC.DBJV. The acquisition was financed using a deferred purchase price obligation which requiresthat required a cash payment from WES to the Company due on March 31, 2020. TheIn May 2017, WES reached an agreement with the Company to settle this obligation whereby WES made a cash payment to the Company of $37 million, equal to the net present value of thisthe obligation was $29 million at June 30, 2016, and $189 million at DecemberMarch 31, 2015.2017.
In order to reduce WES’s exposure to a majority of the commodity-price risk inherent in certain of their contracts, Anadarko has commodity price swap agreements in place with WES expiring in 2016.on December 31, 2017. WES has recorded a capital contribution from Anadarko in its Consolidated Statement of Equity and Partners’ Capital for the amount by which the swap price exceeds the applicable market price. WES recorded a $16 million capital contribution from Anadarko of $29 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016,2017, and a capital contribution of zero$16 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015.2016.

19.17. Segment Information

Anadarko’s business segments are separately managed due to distinct operational differencesdifferences. Anadarko has previously presented three reportable segments in its quarterly and unique technology, distribution,annual filings: Oil and Gas Exploration and Production, Midstream, and Marketing. In the first half of 2017, Anadarko substantially completed a repositioning of its asset portfolio to focus on higher margin liquids production. This shift resulted in a substantial decrease in the number of U.S. operating areas. Following the portfolio repositioning, the chief operating decision maker reviews operating results for Exploration and Production and Midstream when making operating and capital allocation decisions. Accordingly, Anadarko will no longer identify marketing requirements.activities as a separate reportable segment and will have two reporting segments: Exploration and Production and Midstream, which will include their respective marketing results. The Company’s threeCompany has reclassified prior period amounts to conform to the current period’s presentation.
The Exploration and Production reporting segments are oil and gas exploration and production, midstream, and marketing. The oil and gas exploration and production segment explores for, produces, and producessells oil, condensate, natural gas, and NGLs and plans for the development and operation of the Company’s LNG project in Mozambique. The midstreamMidstream reporting segment engages in gathering, processing, treating, and transporting Anadarko and third-party oil, condensate, natural-gas, and NGLs production.production as well as gathering and disposal of produced water. The midstreamMidstream reporting segment consists of two operating segments, WES and other midstream,Other Midstream, which are aggregated into one reporting segment due to similar financial and operating characteristics. The marketing segment sells much of Anadarko’s oil, condensate, natural-gas, and NGLs production as well as third-party purchased volumes.

19.17. Segment Information (Continued)

To assess the performance of Anadarko’s operating segments, the chief operating decision maker analyzes Adjusted EBITDAX. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDAX as income (loss) before income taxes; interest expense; DD&A; exploration expense; gains (losses) on divestitures, net; exploration expense; depreciation, depletion, and amortization (DD&A); impairments; interest expense; total (gains) losses on derivatives, net, less net cash from settlement of commodity derivatives; and certain items not related to the Company’s normal operations, less net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests. During the periods presented, items not related to the Company’s normal operations included restructuring charges related to the workforce reduction program included in general and administrative expenses, Deepwater Horizon settlement and related costs included in other operating expenses,G&A, loss on early extinguishment of debt, Tronox-related contingent loss, and certain other nonoperating items included in other (income) expense, net.
The Company’s definition of Adjusted EBITDAX excludes gains (losses) on divestitures, net and exploration expense as they are not indicators of operating efficiency for a given reporting period. However, exploration expense is monitored by management as part of costs incurred in exploration and development activities. Similarly, DD&A and impairments are excluded from Adjusted EBITDAX as a measure of segment operating performance because capital expenditures are evaluated at the time capital costs are incurred. Adjusted EBITDAX also excludes interest expense to allow for assessment of segment operating results without regard to Anadarko’s financing methods or capital structure. Total (gains) losses on derivatives, net, less net cash from settlement of commodity derivatives are excluded from Adjusted EBITDAX because these (gains) losses are not considered a measure of asset operating performance. Finally, net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests is excluded from the Company’s measure of Adjusted EBITDAX, because it represents earnings that are not attributable to the Company’s common stockholders.
Management believes that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDAX provides information useful in assessing the Company’s operating and financial condition and results of operations and that Adjusted EBITDAX is a widely accepted financial indicator of a company’s ability to incur and service debt, fund capital expenditures, and make distributions to stockholders.performance across periods. Adjusted EBITDAX as defined by Anadarko may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and should be considered in conjunction with net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders and other performance measures, such as operating income or cash flows from operating activities.income. Below is a reconciliation of consolidated Adjusted EBITDAX to income (loss) before income taxes:

OUTLOOKMANAGEMENT OVERVIEW

During 2015,In 2017, Anadarko continues to optimize and further concentrate its portfolio on higher-return, oil-levered opportunities in areas where it possesses both scale and competitive advantages, namely the oilDelaware and natural-gas industry experienced a significant decrease in commodity prices driven by a global supply/demand imbalance for oil and an oversupply of natural gasDJ basins in the United States. Low commodity prices have continued into 2016U.S. onshore and may exist for an extended period.deepwater Gulf of Mexico. Anadarko’s deepwater Gulf of Mexico assets are expected to generate substantial cash flows over the next five years at current strip prices. The Company’s revenues, operating results,Company plans to use the cash flows from operations, capital spending, and future growth rates are highly dependent on the global commodity-price markets, which affect the value the Company receivesGulf of Mexico as well as from its salesinternational producing assets to fund growth in the Company’s unconventional assets in the Delaware and DJ basins. Much of oil, natural gas,the 2017 operational focus is preparing the Delaware basin for development with increased operatorship and NGLs.

The Company has continued its disciplinedended the second quarter of 2017 with 16 operated drilling rigs in the Delaware basin and focused approach6 operated drilling rigs in 2016 by emphasizing value over growth, preservingthe DJ basin, which compares to 14 operated drilling rigs in the Delaware basin and building value through capital allocation, enhancing operational efficiencies, and continuing an active monetization program. In6 operated drilling rigs in the DJ basin at the end of the first quarter of 2016,2017. In the deepwater Gulf of Mexico, Anadarko has 3 floating rigs drilling with a focus on leveraging the Company’s expansive infrastructure position.
Following a home explosion in Colorado in April 2017, the Company initiatedhas taken actions in an effort to alleviate public concern and reinforce confidence in the safety of its operations. The Company took precautionary measures to shut in all operated vertical wells in the DJ basin to conduct additional inspections and testing and also remove all one-inch return lines associated with these wells. Subsequently, in May 2017, the Colorado Oil & Gas Conservation Commission issued a workforce reduction programtwo-phase Notice to alignOperators (NTO) requiring all operators to inventory and integrity test existing flowlines within 1,000 feet of a building unit and abandon all inactive flowlines in such areas. The Company expects to meet the size and composition of Anadarko’s workforceNTO compliance deadline, is cooperating fully with the Company’s expected future operatingNTSB in its investigation, and capital plans. Employee notifications relatedcontinues to the workforce reduction program were completed by June 30, 2016. All of the $407 million of expected restructuring charges will be recognized in 2016,work cooperatively with the exception of approximately $10 million of expense for retirement benefits expected to be recognized in the first quarter of 2017.state regulators and others.
The CompanyAnadarko currently estimates a 20162017 capital spending range of $3.1$5.1 billion to $3.3$5.4 billion, includingwhich represents a decrease of more than 5% from the initial 2017 estimate due to current market conditions requiring lower capital intensity given the volatility of margins realized in this operating environment. The estimated capital spending range includes approximately $450$900 million to $490 million$1.0 billion for Western Gas Partners, LP (WES), a publicly traded consolidated subsidiary, excluding any acquisitions made by WES. The Company has currently allocated approximately 65%80% of its 20162017 capital spending budget to development activities, 15% to exploration activities, and 20% to gathering and processing activities and other business activities. The Company currently expects its 2016 capital spending by area to be approximately 40% for the U.S. onshore regionupstream and Alaska, 20% for themidstream and deepwater Gulf of Mexico 20% for Midstreamdevelopment; 15% to future value areas, such as deepwater exploration and other (including WES),Mozambique LNG; 2% to international cash generation assets, such as oil projects in Algeria and 20% for International.Ghana; and 3% to corporate activities. The Company’s 2017 capital program was designed to leverage its streamlined portfolio and sharpened focus on higher-margin oil production.
The Company will continue to evaluate the oil and natural-gas price environments and may adjust its capital spending plans to maintain thewhile maintaining appropriate liquidity and financial flexibility. Anadarko expects that its 2016 capital expenditures will be within itsflexibility with cash on the balance sheet, ownership of marketable securities in WGP, and access to credit facilities.
Anadarko’s revenues, operating results, cash flows from operations, capital spending, and asset monetizations. As of June 30, 2016,future growth rates are highly influenced by commodity prices, which affect the value the Company closed monetizations totaling $2.5 billion in 2016, including asset divestitures, the sale of Anadarko’s interest in Springfield Pipeline LLC to WES, the sale of 12.5 million of the Company’s common units in Western Gas Equity Partners, LP (WGP) to the public, and the Company’s conveyance of a limited-term nonparticipating royalty interest in certain of its coal and trona leases to a third party. These monetizations continue Anadarko’s track record of actively managing its portfolio and reaffirm the Company’s commitment toward strengthening its balance sheet.

Liquidity  As of June 30, 2016, Anadarko had $1.4 billion of cash on hand plus $5.0 billion of borrowing capacity under its revolving credit facilities.
Anadarko believes that its cash on hand, anticipated operating cash flows, and proceeds from expected future asset monetizations will be sufficient to fund the Company’s projected 2016 operational and capital programs. In response to the current commodity price environment, the Board of Directors (Board) decreased the quarterly dividend from $0.27 per share to $0.05 per share in February 2016. On an annualized basis, the dividend decrease and the workforce reduction program (without consideration for restructuring charges) are expected to have the effect of providing approximately $800 million of available cash to enhance the Company’s operations and financial flexibility. During the second quarter of 2016, the Company used proceedsreceives from its $3.0 billion March 2016 Senior Notes issuances to purchase and retire $1.250 billionsales of its $2.0 billion 6.375% Senior Notes due September 2017 pursuant to a tender offer and to redeem its $1.750 billion 5.950% Senior Notes due September 2016. Also during the second quarter of 2016, Anadarko received cash of $881 million from a tax refund related to the income tax benefit associated with the Company’s 2015 tax net operating loss carryback and sold 12.5 million of its common units in WGP to the public for net proceeds of $476 million. Further, Anadarko enters into strategic derivative positions to reduce commodity-price risk and increase the predictability of cash flows. At June 30, 2016, derivative positions covered 26% of Anadarko’s anticipated oil, sales volumes and 1% of its anticipated natural-gas sales volumes for 2016, 41% of its anticipated natural-gas sales volumes and 2% of its anticipated NGLs sales volumes for 2017, and 14% of anticipated natural-gas sales volumes for 2018. These instruments had a fair value of $45 million as of June 30, 2016. See Note 6—Derivative Instruments in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements under Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q. Anadarko believes that the actions taken to enhance the Company’s liquidity position coupled with its asset portfolio and operating and financial performance provide the necessary financial flexibility to fund the Company’s current and long-term operations.

Potential for Future Impairments  The Company did not recognize any material impairments during the six months ended June 30, 2016, although it is reasonably possible that prolonged low or further declines in commodity prices, changes to the Company’s drilling plans in response to lower prices, or increases in drilling or operating costs could result in future property impairments.

Natural-Gas Prices
The average natural-gas price Anadarko received increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, primarily due to the industry’s year-over-year production declines resulting in reduced gas storage, while LNG and natural-gas exports to Mexico continued to grow.

Natural-Gas Sales Volumes
2017 vs. 2016The Company’s natural-gas sales volumes decreased by 166950 MMcf/d for the three months ended June 30, 2016,2017, and 300698 MMcf/d for the six months ended June 30, 2016.
Sales volumes in the Rockies decreased by 150 MMcf/d for the three months ended June 30, 2016, and 161 MMcf/d for the six months ended June 30, 2016,2017, primarily due to the September 2015 sale of certain coalbed methane propertiesthe U.S onshore Elm Grove and a natural production decline at Greater Natural Buttes, partially offset by higher 2016 sales volumesEast Texas assets in the Wattenberg field as a resultsecond half of improved well performance.
Sales volumes2016 and the U.S. onshore Marcellus and Eagleford assets in the Gulffirst half of Mexico decreased by 40 MMcf/d for the three months ended June 30, 2016, and 89 MMcf/d for the six months ended June 30, 2016, primarily as a result of the last producing well going off line at IHUB in December 2015.
Sales volumes in the Southern and Appalachia Region increased by 24 MMcf/d for the three months ended June 30, 2016, primarily due to the injection of volumes into storage in 2015, third-party infrastructure downtime in the Marcellus shale in 2015, and continued development in the Delaware basin. The increase for the three months ended June 30, 2016, was partially offset by decreased sales volumes in 2016 as a result of the July 2015 sale of certain U.S. onshore properties in East Texas and a natural production decline in the Eagleford shale. Sales volumes for the six months ended June 30, 2016, 2017.decreased by 50 MMcf/d, primarily due to the decreases discussed above, partially offset by higher 2016 sales volumes in the Delaware basin due to continued development.

The average natural-gas price Anadarko received decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, primarily due to lower weather-driven residential and commercial demand, which have contributed to sustained high gas storage levels.

The Company reported a loss before income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, and the six months ended June 30, 2015. As a result, items that ordinarily increase or decrease the tax rate will have the opposite effect. The variance from the 35% U.S. federal statutory rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, was primarily attributable to the non-deductible Algerian exceptional profits tax for Algerian income tax purposes and the tax impact from foreign operations. In addition, the decrease from the 35% U.S. federal statutory rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, was attributable to non-deductible goodwill related to divestitures and net changes in uncertain tax positions.

Overview  Anadarko believes that its cash on hand, anticipated operating cash flows, and proceeds from expected future asset monetizations will be sufficient to fund the Company’s projected 2016 operational and capital programs. In addition, the Company has available borrowing capacity to supplement its working capital needs. The Company continuously monitors its liquidity needs and evaluates available funding alternatives in light of current and expected conditions. Anadarko has a variety of funding sources available, including cash, on hand, an asset portfolio that provides ongoing cash-flow-generating capacity, opportunities for liquidity enhancement through divestitures and joint-venture arrangements that reduce future capital expenditures, and the Company’s credit facilities.facilities, and access to both debt and equity capital markets. In addition, an effective registration statement is available to Anadarko covering the sale of WGP common units owned by the Company.

EffectsDuring 2017, Anadarko received net proceeds of Moody’s Credit Rating Downgrade  In February 2016, Standard and Poor’s affirmed Anadarko’s “BBB” long-term debt credit rating and changed$3.5 billion from divestitures, primarily related to the outlook from stable to negative. Later in February 2016, Moody’s Investors Service (Moody’s) loweredsale of the Company’s long-term debt credit rating from “Baa2” to “Ba1,” which is below investment grade. In March 2016, Fitch Ratings affirmed Anadarko’s “BBB” long-term debt credit ratingU.S. onshore Eagleford, Marcellus, Eaglebine, and changed the outlook from stable to negative.
Utah CBM assets. As a result of Moody’s downgrade of Anadarko’s credit rating to a level that is below investment grade, the Company’s credit thresholds with certain derivative counterparties were reduced and in some cases eliminated, which required the Company to increase the amount of collateral posted with derivative counterparties when the Company’s net trading position is a liability in excess of the contractual threshold. No counterparties have requested termination or full settlement of derivative positions. The aggregate fair value of derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features for which a net liability position existed was $1.3 billion (net of collateral) at each of June 30, 2016, and December 31, 2015. The amount2017, Anadarko had $6.0 billion of cash posted as collateral pursuantplus $5.0 billion of borrowing capacity under its RCFs. Anadarko believes that its current available cash and anticipated operating cash flows will be sufficient to the contractual requirements applicable to derivative instruments with financial institutions was $599 million at June 30, 2016, and $58 million at December 31, 2015.
The Moody’s credit rating downgrade required Anadarko to post collateral in the form of letters of credit or cash as financial assurance of its performance under certain contractual arrangements such as pipeline transportation contracts and oil and gas sales contracts. The amount of letters of credit or cash provided as assurance offund the Company’s performance under these typesprojected 2017 and long-term operational and capital programs. The Company continuously monitors its liquidity position and evaluates available funding alternatives in light of contractual arrangements with respect to credit-risk-related contingent features was $274 million at June 30, 2016,current and zero at December 31, 2015.
Also in February 2016, Moody’s downgraded Anadarko’s commercial paper program credit rating, which essentially eliminated the Company’s access to the commercial paper market. As a result, the Company has not issued commercial paper notes since the downgrade, but instead has used its 364-day senior unsecured revolving credit facility (364-Day Facility) for short-term working capital requirements, as needed.expected conditions.

Operating Activities

One of the primary sources of variability in the Company’s cash flows from operating activities is the fluctuation in commodity prices, the impact of which Anadarko partially mitigates by entering into commodity derivatives. Sales volume changes also impact cash flow but historically have not been as volatile as commodity prices. Anadarko’s cash flows from operating activities are also impacted by the costs related to operations and interest payments related to the Company’s outstanding debt.
Anadarko generated $1.1 billion of cash fromCash provided by operating activities duringwas $2.0 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2017, $0.9 billion higher compared to the same period of 2016.

These increases were partially offset by an $881 million tax refund received in 2016 related to the income tax benefit associated with the Company’s 2015 tax net operating loss carryback, the $159.5 million payment of the Clean Water Act (CWA) penalty, and the payment of $182 million related to severance costs and retirement benefits in connection with the workforce reduction program. Cash used in operating activities for the same period of 2015 was $3.3 billion, which included the $5.2 billion Tronox settlement payment. Excluding the impact of the tax refund and payments for the CWA penalty, severance costs and retirement benefits, and the Tronox settlement, operating cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2016, decreased by $1.4 billion primarily due to decreased sales revenues as a result of lower commodity prices.carryback.

The Company’s primary market risks are attributable to fluctuations in energy prices and interest rates. These risks can affect revenues and cash flows, and the Company’s risk-management policies provide for the use of derivative instruments to manage these risks. The types of commodity derivative instruments used by the Company include futures, swaps, options, and fixed-price physical-delivery contracts. The volume of commodity derivatives entered into by the Company is governed by risk-management policies and may vary from year to year. Both exchange and over-the-counter traded derivative instruments may be subject to margin-deposit requirements, and the Company may be required from time to time to deposit cash or provide letters of credit with exchange brokers or counterparties to satisfy these margin requirements. For additional information relating to the Company’s derivative and financial instruments, see Note 6—7—Derivative Instruments in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements under Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

COMMODITY-PRICE RISK  The Company’s most significant market risk relates to prices for oil, natural gas, and NGLs. Management expects energy prices to remain unpredictable and potentially volatile. As energy prices decline or rise significantly, revenues and cash flows are likewise affected. In addition, a non-cash write-down of the Company’s oil and gas properties or goodwill may be required if commodity prices experience a significant decline. Below is a sensitivity analysis for the Company’s commodity-price-related derivative instruments.

Derivative Instruments Held for Non-Trading PurposesThe Company had derivative instruments in place to reduce the price risk associated with future production of 1517 MMBbls of oil 349and 249 Bcf of natural gas and 1 MMBbls of NGLs at June 30, 2016,2017, with a net derivative asset position of $45 million.$68 million. Based on actual derivative contractual volumes, a 10% increase in underlying commodity prices would reduce the fair value of these derivatives by $116$78 million,, while a 10% decrease in underlying commodity prices would increase the fair value of these derivatives by $109 million.$85 million. However, any cash received or paid to settle these derivatives would be substantially offset by the sales value of production covered by the derivative instruments.

Derivative Instruments Held for Trading PurposesAt June 30, 2016,2017, the Company had a net derivative asset position of $7$4 million on outstanding derivative instruments entered into for trading purposes. Based on actual derivative contractual volumes, a 10% increase or decrease in underlying commodity prices would not materially impact the Company’s gains or losses on these derivative instruments.

INTEREST-RATE RISKBorrowings, if any, under each of the 364-Day Facility, the Five-Year Facility,APC RCF, the WES RCF, and the WGP RCF are subject to variable interest rates. The balance of Anadarko’s long-term debt on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets has fixed interest rates. The Company has $2.9 billion of LIBOR-based obligations based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) that are presented on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets net of preferred investments in two noncontrolled entities. These obligations give rise to minimal net interest-rate risk because coupons on the related preferred investments are also LIBOR-based. While a 10% change in LIBOR would not materially impact the Company’s interest cost, it would affect the fair value of outstanding fixed-rate debt.
At June 30, 2016,2017, the Company had a net derivative liability position of $1.8$1.4 billion related to interest-rate swaps. A 10% increase (decrease) in the three-month LIBOR interest-rate curve would decrease (increase) the aggregate fair value of outstanding interest-rate swap agreements by $75 million.$88 million. However, any change in the interest-rate derivative gain or loss could be substantially offset by changes in actual borrowing costs associated with future debt issuances. For a summary of the Company’s outstanding interest-rate derivative positions, see Note 6—7—Derivative Instruments in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements under Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Anadarko’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer performed an evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act).

Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of June 30, 2016.2017.
