Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Principles of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Barnwell Industries, Inc. and all majority-owned subsidiaries (collectively referred to herein as “Barnwell,” “we,” “our,” “us,” or the “Company”), including a 77.6% -owned land investment general partnership (Kaupulehu Developments), a 75% -owned land investment partnership (KD Kona 2013 LLLP) and two 80%-owned joint ventures (Kaupulehu 2007, LLLP and Kaupulehu Investors, LLC). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Barnwell’s investments in both unconsolidated entities in which a significant, but less than controlling, interest is held and in variable interest entities (“VIE”) in which the Company is not deemed to be the primary beneficiary are accounted for by the equity method. Unless otherwise indicated, all references to “dollars” in this Form 10-Q are to U.S. dollars. Unaudited Interim Financial Information The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes have been prepared by Barnwell in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States (“U.S.”) Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. These condensed consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Barnwell’s September 30, 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2015 has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position at December 31, 2015 , results of operations, comprehensive loss, cash flows and equity for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 , have been made. The results of operations for the period ended December 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. Use of Estimates The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management of Barnwell to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Significant Accounting Policies There have been no changes to Barnwell’s significant accounting policies as described in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of the Company’s most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-08, “Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity.” This ASU relates to discontinued operations reporting for disposals of components of an entity that represent strategic shifts that have, or will have, a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. The standard expands the disclosures for discontinued operations and requires new disclosures related to individually material disposals that do not meet the definition of a discontinued operation. The Company adopted the provisions of this ASU effective October 1, 2015. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on Barnwell’s consolidated financial statements. |
LIQUIDITY
LIQUIDITY | 3 Months Ended |

Risks and Uncertainties [Abstract] | |
LIQUIDITY | LIQUIDITY In September 2015, Barnwell sold its interests in its principal oil and natural gas properties located in the Dunvegan and Belloy areas of Alberta, Canada. Barnwell's net proceeds from the sale, after broker's fees and other closing costs, were $14,162,000 of which $6,904,000 , as of December 31, 2015 , is being held in an escrow account for the Canada Revenue Agency, for potential amounts due for Barnwell’s Canadian income taxes related to the sale. Upon determination by the Canada Revenue Agency of any necessary tax deposits, the escrow agent is to release any such required amount of withheld funds to the Canada Revenue Agency and the remainder to Barnwell. Management believes all necessary Canadian income taxes related to the sale have been paid as of December 31, 2015 , however the sufficiency of Canadian income taxes paid and the precise timing for and amount of the release of these funds to Barnwell cannot be determined until formal determination by the Canada Revenue Agency. On September 30, 2015, as a result of the sale of Dunvegan, Barnwell’s revolving credit facility at Royal Bank of Canada was amended and reduced by the bank to $1,000,000 Canadian dollars, or U.S. $723,000 at the December 31, 2015 exchange rate. Barnwell repaid the credit facility in full in September 2015 from the proceeds of the disposition and as of December 31, 2015 had $690,000 of available credit after consideration of issued letters of credit. Barnwell's oil and natural gas segment is subject to the provisions of the Alberta Energy Regulator's (“AER”) Licensee Liability Rating (“LLR”) program. Under the LLR program the AER calculates a Liability Management Ratio (“LMR”) for a company based on the ratio of the company’s deemed assets over its deemed liabilities relating to wells and facilities for which the company is the licensed operator. The value of the deemed assets is based on each well's most recent twelve months of production and an industry average netback as determined by the AER annually. The LMR assessment is designed to assess a company’s ability to address its suspension, abandonment, remediation, and reclamation liabilities. Companies with a LMR less than 1.0 are required to deposit funds with the AER to cover future deemed liabilities. At December 31, 2015 , the Company had sufficient deemed asset value that no security deposit was due. However, in February 2016 Barnwell's LMR fell below 1.0 , due to the transfer of a well license with a favorable LMR, and Barnwell is required to make a cash deposit with the AER of approximately $130,000 . It is probable that Barnwell will have to transfer an additional well license which would necessitate an additional cash deposit with the AER and/or the implementation of a structured LLR Program Management Plan; management currently estimates that the total amount of the required deposits in fiscal 2016 could be as much as $3,000,000 , however we cannot be certain of the ultimate amount at this time. Due to the decline in oil and natural gas prices and related netbacks over the past year it is possible that the value of the Company’s deemed assets will further decline which in turn could dictate that the Company place a larger deposit with the AER than is currently estimated. This requirement to provide security deposit funds to the AER in the future will result in the diversion of operating cash flows that could otherwise be used to fund oil and natural gas reserve replacement efforts, which in turn will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. If Barnwell fails to comply with the requirements of the LLR program, Barnwell's oil and natural gas subsidiary would be subject to the AER's enforcement provisions which could include suspension of operations and non-compliance fees and could ultimately result in the AER serving the Company with a closure order to shut-in all operated wells. Additionally, if Barnwell is non-compliant, the Company would be prohibited from transferring well licenses which would prohibit us from selling any oil and natural gas assets until the required cash deposit is made with the AER. Because of the combined impact of declines in oil and natural gas prices, declines in production due to oil and natural gas property sales as well as from natural declines, and increasing costs due to the age of Barnwell's properties, Barnwell's oil and natural gas segment is projected to have negative cash flow from operations at current prices and production levels. These factors have also resulted in the significant decrease in the borrowing capacity of our Canadian revolving credit facility. Consequently, Barnwell is reliant upon the release of the Dunvegan sales proceeds held in escrow, the timing of which is uncertain, and land investment segment proceeds from percentage of sales payments and any potential future cash distributions from the Kukio Resort land development partnerships in order to provide sufficient liquidity to fund our future cash needs, including capital expenditures, the aforementioned deposits with the AER, the asset retirement obligations, and general and administrative expenses. Furthermore, even if the release of the Dunvegan sales proceeds held in escrow and land investment segment proceeds provide sufficient liquidity, all or a portion of those proceeds will be needed to fund ongoing operating and general and administrative expenses, deposits with the AER, and asset retirement obligations, such that these proceeds used would not be reinvested. There is no assurance that the Company will have sufficient cash to fund operations beyond the short term as it is dependent upon the timely release of the Dunvegan sales proceeds, the receipt of sufficient land investment segment percentage of sales payments or the receipt of sufficient cash distributions from the Kukio Resort land development partnerships to fund operations. The timing of these items is highly uncertain and largely out of our control. If these sources of cash are not timely or are insufficient, we may be forced to implement measures such as asset sales, including potentially the New York and/or Honolulu offices, on an accelerated and potentially unfavorable basis, short-term bridge financing, reductions in operations and general and administrative expenses, or other mechanisms that will bridge the Company's cash needs until sufficient amounts of the sources of cash above are received in the near term. There can be no assurance the Company will be able to secure short-term financing or the sale of any of its assets within the time frame necessary, or realize enough proceeds from such sales to fund its operations or to otherwise resolve its liquidity issues. Such issues could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. If liquidity issues continue beyond one year and are such that the Company is not able to sufficiently reinvest its future cash inflows, the Company's ability to continue as a going concern beyond the short term will need to be reassessed in consideration of the facts and circumstances at that time. |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
EARNINGS (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE | LOSS PER COMMON SHARE Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated using the treasury stock method to reflect the assumed issuance of common shares for all potentially dilutive securities, which consist of outstanding stock options. Potentially dilutive shares are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share if their effect is anti-dilutive. Options to purchase 621,250 shares of common stock were excluded from the computation of diluted shares for both the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 , as their inclusion would have been antidilutive. Reconciliations between net loss attributable to Barnwell stockholders and common shares outstanding of the basic and diluted net loss per share computations are detailed in the following tables: Three months ended December 31, 2015 Net Loss (Numerator) Shares (Denominator) Per-Share Amount Basic net loss per share $ (1,409,000 ) 8,277,160 $ (0.17 ) Effect of dilutive securities - common stock options — — Diluted net loss per share $ (1,409,000 ) 8,277,160 $ (0.17 ) Three months ended December 31, 2014 Net Loss (Numerator) Shares (Denominator) Per-Share Amount Basic net loss per share $ (467,000 ) 8,277,160 $ (0.06 ) Effect of dilutive securities - common stock options — — Diluted net loss per share $ (467,000 ) 8,277,160 $ (0.06 ) |

INVESTMENTS | INVESTMENTS A summary of Barnwell’s investments is as follows: December 31, 2015 September 30, 2015 Investment in Kukio Resort land development partnerships $ 6,401,000 $ 6,238,000 Investment in leasehold land interest – Lot 4C 50,000 50,000 Total investments $ 6,451,000 $ 6,288,000 Investment in Kukio Resort land development partnerships On November 27, 2013, Barnwell, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, entered into two limited liability limited partnerships, KD Kona 2013 LLLP and KKM Makai, LLLP, and indirectly acquired a 19.6% non-controlling ownership interest in each of KD Kukio Resorts, LLLP, KD Maniniowali, LLLP and KD Kaupulehu, LLLP for $5,140,000 . These entities own certain real estate and development rights interests in the Kukio, Maniniowali and Kaupulehu portions of Kukio Resort, a private residential community on the Kona coast of the island of Hawaii, as well as Kukio Resort’s real estate sales office operations. KD Kaupulehu, LLLP, which is comprised of KD Acquisition, LLLP (“KD I”) and KD Acquisition II, LLLP (“KD II”), is the developer of Kaupulehu Lot 4A Increments I and II, the area in which Barnwell has interests in percentage of sales payments. Barnwell’s investment in these entities is accounted for using the equity method of accounting. The partnerships derive income from the sale of residential parcels, of which 27 lots remain to be sold at Kaupulehu Increment I, two ocean front parcels in Kaupulehu Increment II are currently being developed for eventual sale, and one lot remains at Maniniowali, as well as from commission on real estate sales by the real estate sales office. The limited liability limited partnership agreements provide for a priority return of Barnwell’s investment prior to profit distributions. Net profits, losses and cash flows of the partnerships are allocated to Barnwell and the other partners at varying percentages based on whether the initial and any additional capital contributions plus any preferred returns due to contributing partners have been repaid to the investors. Equity in income of affiliates was $163,000 and $88,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 , respectively. The equity in the underlying net assets of the Kukio Resort land development partnerships exceeds the carrying value of the investment in affiliates by approximately $377,000 as of December 31, 2015 , which is attributable to differences in the value of capitalized development costs and a note receivable. The basis difference for the capitalized development costs will be recognized as the partnerships sell lots and recognize the associated costs. The basis difference for the note receivable will be recognized as the partnerships sell memberships for the Kuki`o Golf and Beach Club for which the receivable relates. The basis difference adjustment for the three months ended December 31, 2015 was a $13,000 increase in equity in income of affiliates, and the basis difference adjustment for the three months ended December 31, 2014 was inconsequential. Barnwell, as well as KD I, KD II and certain other owners of the partnerships, have jointly and severally executed a surety indemnification agreement. Bonds issued by the surety at December 31, 2015 totaled approximately $4,144,000 and relate to certain construction contracts of KD I. If any such performance bonds are called, we may be obligated to reimburse the issuer of the performance bond as Barnwell, KD I and certain other partners are jointly and severally liable, however we believe that it is remote that a material amount of any currently outstanding performance bonds will be called. Performance bonds do not have stated expiration dates. Rather, the performance bonds are released as the underlying performance is completed. As of December 31, 2015 , Barnwell’s maximum loss exposure as a result of its investment in the Kukio Resort land development partnerships was approximately $10,545,000 , consisting of the carrying value of the investment of $6,401,000 and $4,144,000 from the surety indemnification agreement of which we are jointly and severally liable.

Long-term Debt, Unclassified [Abstract] | |
LONG-TERM DEBT | LONG-TERM DEBT Canadian revolving credit facility On September 30, 2015, Barnwell’s revolving credit facility at Royal Bank of Canada was amended and reduced by the bank to $1,000,000 Canadian dollars, or U.S. $723,000 at the December 31, 2015 exchange rate, as a result of the sale of the Company's principal oil and natural gas property, Dunvegan, in September 2015. Barnwell repaid the credit facility in full in September 2015 from the proceeds of the disposition. The other material terms of the credit facility remain unchanged. At December 31, 2015 and September 30, 2015, borrowings under this facility were U.S. $0 . Issued letters of credit were $33,000 at December 31, 2015 . The Canadian revolving credit facility is available in U.S. dollars at the London Interbank Offer Rate plus 2.50% , at Royal Bank of Canada’s U.S. base rate plus 1.50% , or in Canadian dollars at Royal Bank of Canada’s prime rate plus 1.50% . A standby fee of 0.625% per annum is charged on the unused facility balance. Under the financing agreement with Royal Bank of Canada, the credit facility is reviewed annually, with the next review planned for April 2016. Subject to that review, the credit facility may be renewed for one year with no required debt repayments or converted to a two-year term loan by the bank. If the credit facility is converted to a two -year term loan, Barnwell has agreed to the following repayment schedule of the then outstanding loan balance: first year of the term period - 20% ( 5% per quarter), and in the second year of the term period - 80% ( 5% per quarter for the first three quarters and 65% in the final quarter). Real estate loan Barnwell, together with its real estate joint venture, Kaupulehu 2007, has a non-revolving real estate loan with a Hawaii bank. In January 2015, the loan was amended from monthly principal and interest payments to monthly interest-only payments effective February 1, 2015. All other terms of the loan remained unchanged. The principal balance and any accrued interest will be due and payable on April 1, 2018. The interest rate adjusts each April for the remaining term of the loan to the lender’s then prevailing interest rate for similarly priced commercial mortgage loans or a floating rate equal to the lender’s base rate. The interest rate at December 31, 2015 was 3.59% . At December 31, 2015 and September 30, 2015, the balance of the real estate loan was $3,440,000 . The loan is collateralized by, among other things, a first mortgage on Kaupulehu 2007’s lots together with all improvements thereon. Kaupulehu 2007 will be required to make a principal payment upon the sale of the house or the residential parcel in the amount of the net sales proceeds of the house or residential parcel; the loan agreement defines net sales proceeds as the gross sales proceeds for the house or residential parcel, less reasonable commissions and normal closing costs. The loan agreement contains provisions requiring us to maintain compliance with certain covenants including a consolidated debt service coverage ratio and a consolidated total liabilities to tangible net worth ratio. However, in June 2015, the bank suspended these financial covenants in exchange for an interest reserve account which had a balance of $212,000 and $242,000 at December 31, 2015 and September 30, 2015, respectively, and is included in "Restricted cash" on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. These financial covenants will remain suspended as long as there are sufficient funds in the interest reserve account. The home and residential lot collateralizing the loan are currently available for sale; therefore, the entire balance outstanding at December 31, 2015 under the term loan has been classified as a current liability. |

RETIREMENT PLANS | RETIREMENT PLANS Barnwell sponsors a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan (“Pension Plan”) covering substantially all of its U.S. employees. Additionally, Barnwell sponsors a Supplemental Employee Retirement Plan (“SERP”), a noncontributory supplemental retirement benefit plan which covers certain current and former employees of Barnwell for amounts exceeding the limits allowed under the Pension Plan, and a postretirement medical insurance benefits plan (“Postretirement Medical”) covering eligible U.S. employees. The following table details the components of net periodic benefit cost for Barnwell’s retirement plans: Pension Plan SERP Postretirement Medical Three months ended December 31, 2015 2014 2015 2014 2015 2014 Service cost $ 65,000 $ 51,000 $ 16,000 $ 15,000 $ — $ — Interest cost 91,000 87,000 20,000 18,000 14,000 13,000 Expected return on plan assets (112,000 ) (125,000 ) — — — — Amortization of prior service cost (credit) 1,000 1,000 (1,000 ) (1,000 ) — — Amortization of net actuarial loss (gain) 34,000 21,000 5,000 6,000 — (1,000 ) Net periodic benefit cost $ 79,000 $ 35,000 $ 40,000 $ 38,000 $ 14,000 $ 12,000 Barnwell contributed $350,000 to the Pension Plan during the three months ended December 31, 2015 and estimates that it will make further contributions of $400,000 during the remainder of fiscal 2016. The SERP and Postretirement Medical plans are unfunded, and Barnwell funds benefits when payments are made. Barnwell does not expect to make any benefit payments under the Postretirement Medical plan during fiscal 2016 and expected payments under the SERP for fiscal 2016 are not material. Fluctuations in actual equity market returns as well as changes in general interest rates will result in changes in the market value of plan assets and may result in increased or decreased retirement benefits costs and contributions in future periods. |

INCOME TAXES | INCOME TAXES The components of loss before income taxes, after adjusting the loss for non-controlling interests, are as follows: Three months ended 2015 2014 United States $ (726,000 ) $ (236,000 ) Canada (876,000 ) (320,000 ) $ (1,602,000 ) $ (556,000 ) The components of the income tax provision (benefit) are as follows: Three months ended 2015 2014 Current $ (209,000 ) $ 3,000 Deferred 16,000 (92,000 ) $ (193,000 ) $ (89,000 ) As a result of significant declines in oil and natural gas prices, funds available for oil and natural gas capital expenditures are projected to be minimal in the near term and thus Barnwell's ability to replace production and abate declining reserves has been significantly restricted. Accordingly, Barnwell determined in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 that it is not more likely than not that all of our oil and natural gas deferred tax assets under Canadian tax law are realizable. As a result, the Company recorded a valuation allowance during the year ended September 30, 2015 for the portion of Canadian tax law deferred tax assets related to asset retirement obligations that may not be realizable. Included in the deferred income tax expense for the three months ended December 31, 2015 , was $53,000 for the additional valuation allowance necessary for the portion of Canadian tax law deferred tax assets that may not be realizable. There was no such valuation allowance recorded in the prior year period. Consolidated taxes do not bear a customary relationship to pretax results due primarily to the fact that the Company is taxed separately in Canada based on Canadian source operations and in the U.S. based on consolidated operations, Canadian income taxes are not estimated to have a future benefit as foreign tax credits or deductions for U.S. tax purposes, and U.S. consolidated net operating losses and other deferred tax assets under U.S. tax law are not estimated to have any future U.S. tax benefit. In addition, consolidated taxes in the current year period includes the aforementioned valuation allowance for a portion of deferred tax assets under Canadian tax law. |

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Environmental Matters In January 2015, there was an oil and salt water release from one of our operated oil pipelines in Alberta, Canada. We have estimated that the gross probable environmental remediation costs will be approximately $2,300,000 . Barnwell’s working interest in the well is 58% , and we have recovered substantially all of the monies from the other working interest owners for their share of the costs. Additionally, we have filed a claim under our insurance policy, which has a deductible of approximately $80,000 , and as of December 31, 2015 , we have collected $1,103,000 in insurance proceeds. The estimated liability for the release as of December 31, 2015 and September 30, 2015 was $72,000 and $75,000 , respectively, and has not been discounted and was accrued in “Accrued operating and other expenses” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Because of the inherent uncertainties associated with environmental assessment and remediation activities, future expenses to remediate the currently identified site, and sites identified in the future, if any, could be incurred.

Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Barnwell Industries, Inc. and all majority-owned subsidiaries (collectively referred to herein as “Barnwell,” “we,” “our,” “us,” or the “Company”), including a 77.6% -owned land investment general partnership (Kaupulehu Developments), a 75% -owned land investment partnership (KD Kona 2013 LLLP) and two 80%-owned joint ventures (Kaupulehu 2007, LLLP and Kaupulehu Investors, LLC). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Barnwell’s investments in both unconsolidated entities in which a significant, but less than controlling, interest is held and in variable interest entities (“VIE”) in which the Company is not deemed to be the primary beneficiary are accounted for by the equity method. Unless otherwise indicated, all references to “dollars” in this Form 10-Q are to U.S. dollars. |
Unaudited Interim Financial Information | Unaudited Interim Financial Information The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes have been prepared by Barnwell in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States (“U.S.”) Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. These condensed consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Barnwell’s September 30, 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2015 has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position at December 31, 2015 , results of operations, comprehensive loss, cash flows and equity for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 , have been made. The results of operations for the period ended December 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management of Barnwell to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-08, “Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity.” This ASU relates to discontinued operations reporting for disposals of components of an entity that represent strategic shifts that have, or will have, a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. The standard expands the disclosures for discontinued operations and requires new disclosures related to individually material disposals that do not meet the definition of a discontinued operation. The Company adopted the provisions of this ASU effective October 1, 2015. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on Barnwell’s consolidated financial statements. |
