Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment Information	Segment Information We have two reportable operating segments. Both of these segments are organized and managed based upon geographic location and the nature of the products and services offered. • United States (“U.S.”) – explores for, produces and markets crude oil and condensate, NGLs and natural gas in the United States • International (“Int’l”) – explores for, produces and markets crude oil and condensate, NGLs and natural gas outside of the United States as well as produces and markets products manufactured from natural gas, such as LNG and methanol, in Equatorial Guinea (“E.G.”) Segment income represents income which excludes certain items not allocated to our operating segments, net of income taxes. A portion of our corporate and operations general and administrative support costs are not allocated to the operating segments. These unallocated costs primarily consist of employment costs (including pension effects), professional services, facilities and other costs associated with corporate and operations support activities. Additionally, items which affect comparability such as: gains or losses on dispositions, impairments of proved and certain unproved properties, goodwill, and equity method investments, unrealized gains or losses on commodity and interest rate derivative instruments, effects of pension settlements and curtailments or other items (as determined by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”)) are not allocated to operating segments.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes Effective Tax Rate The effective income tax rate is influenced by a variety of factors including the geographic and functional sources of income and the relative magnitude of these sources of income. The difference between the total provision and the sum of the amounts allocated to segments is reported in the “Not Allocated to Segments” column of the tables in Note 5 . For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, our effective income tax rates were as follows: Three Months Ended March 31, 2021 2020 Effective income tax rate 9 % 6 % The following items caused the effective income tax rates to be different from our U.S. statutory tax rate of 21% for 2021 and 2020: • We currently have a valuation allowance on net federal deferred tax assets in the U.S., which results in no federal deferred tax expense or benefit on current year U.S. activity. This impact along with the income mix within E.G. between equity method investees and subsidiaries reduces the effective tax rate below the statutory tax rate for the periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

During the first quarter of 2020, a global pandemic caused a substantial deterioration in the worldwide demand of hydrocarbons. The commensurate decline in our market capitalization indicated that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the International reporting unit was less than its carrying value. We estimated the fair value of our International reporting unit using a combination of market and income approaches. The market approach referenced observable inputs specific to us and our industry, such as the price of our common equity, our enterprise value and valuation multiples of us and peers from the investor analyst community. The income approach utilized discounted cash flows, which were based on forecasted assumptions. These valuation methodologies represent Level 3 fair value measurements. Based on the results, we concluded our goodwill was fully impaired, and recorded an impairment of $95 million in the consolidated statements of income for the first quarter of 2020. This represented the entirety of our goodwill on our consolidated balance sheet.

All of our commodity derivatives are subject to enforceable master netting arrangements or similar agreements under which we report net amounts. The following tables present the gross fair values of derivative instruments and the reported net amounts along with where they appear on the consolidated balance sheets.

These derivatives consist of three-way collars, two-way collars, fixed price swaps, basis swaps, and NYMEX roll basis swaps. Three-way collars consist of a sold call (ceiling), a purchased put (floor) and a sold put. The ceiling price is the maximum we will receive for the contract volumes; the floor is the minimum price we will receive, unless the market price falls below the sold put strike price. In this case, we receive the NYMEX WTI price plus the difference between the floor and the sold put price. Two-way collars only consist of a sold call (ceiling) and a purchased put (floor). The following table sets forth outstanding derivative contracts as of March 31, 2021, and the weighted average prices for those contracts: 2021 Second Quarter Third Quarter Fourth Quarter Crude Oil NYMEX WTI Three-Way Collars Volume (Bbls/day) 40,000 20,000 10,000 Weighted average price per Bbl: Ceiling $ 61.45 $ 68.41 $ 71.64 Floor $ 39.75 $ 47.50 $ 50.00 Sold put $ 29.75 $ 37.50 $ 40.00 NYMEX WTI Two-Way Collars Volume (Bbls/day) 50,000 30,000 30,000 Weighted average price per Bbl: Ceiling $ 52.98 $ 51.54 $ 51.54 Floor $ 35.80 $ 35.67 $ 35.67 Basis Swaps - NYMEX WTI / UHC (a) Volume (Bbls/day) 15,000 — — Weighted average price per Bbl $ (1.80) $ — $ — NYMEX Roll Basis Swaps Volume (Bbls/day) 50,000 — — Weighted average price per Bbl $ (0.13) $ — $ — Natural Gas Henry Hub (“HH”) Two-Way Collars Volume (MMBtu/day) 200,000 200,000 200,000 Weighted average price per MMBtu: Ceiling $ 3.05 $ 3.05 $ 3.05 Floor $ 2.50 $ 2.50 $ 2.50 Henry Hub (“HH”) Fixed Price Swaps Volume (MMBtu/day) 50,000 50,000 50,000 Weighted average price per MMBtu $ 2.88 $ 2.88 $ 2.88 NGL Fixed Price Propane Swaps (b) Volume (Bbls/day) 5,000 5,000 5,000 Weighted average price per Bbl $ 23.19 $ 23.19 $ 23.19 (a) The basis differential price is indexed against U.S. Sweet Clearbrook (“UHC”) and NYMEX WTI.

During the first quarter of 2020, net cash received for settled derivative positions was $13 million. Interest Rate Swaps During 2020, we entered into forward starting interest rate swaps to hedge the variations in cash flows related to fluctuations in the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) benchmark interest rate related to forecasted interest payments of a future d ebt issuance in 2022. Each respective derivative contract can be tied to an anticipated underlying dollar notional amount. During the third quarter of 2020, we de-designated these forward starting interest rate swaps previously designated as cash flow hedges. In the first quarter of 2021, the net deferred loss of $2 million in accumulated other comprehensive income related to these de-designated forward starting interest rate swaps was reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings as an adjustment to net interest, as we fully redeemed the remainder of our outstanding 2022 notes in April 2021. Additionally, we recorded a $41 million mark-to-market gain within Net interest and other to reflect the change in value of these interest rate swaps during the first quarter 2021. The following table presents, by maturity date, information about our de-designated forward starting interest rate swap agreements, including the rate.

We expect to refinance these debt maturities in 2025. The swaps will terminate on or prior to the refinancing of the debt and the final value will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings with each future interest payment. During 2019, we entered into forward starting interest rate swaps with a total notional amount of $320 million to hedge variations in cash flows related to the 1-month LIBOR component of future lease payments of our future Houston office. These swaps will settle monthly on the same day the lease payment is made with the first swap settlement occurring in January 2022. We expect the first lease payment to commence sometime in the period from December 2021 to May 2022. The last swap will mature in September 2026. As of March 31, 2021, amounts expected to be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income over the next twelve months were not material. See Note 12 for further details regarding the lease of the new Houston office. The following table presents, by maturity date, information about our interest rate swap agreements, including the weighted average LIBOR-based, fixed rate.

See Note 14 . Commodity derivatives include three-way collars, two-way collars, fixed price swaps, basis swaps and NYMEX roll basis swaps. These instruments are measured at fair value using either a Black-Scholes or a modified Black-Scholes Model. For swaps, inputs to the models include only commodity prices and interest rates and are categorized as Level 1 because all assumptions and inputs are observable in active markets throughout the term of the instruments. For three-way collars and two-way collars, inputs to the models include commodity prices and implied volatility and are categorized as Level 2 because predominantly all assumptions and inputs are observable in active markets throughout the term of the instruments. The forward starting interest rate swaps are measured at fair value with a market approach using actionable broker quotes, which are Level 2 inputs. See Note 14 for detail on the forward starting interest rate swaps. Fair Value Estimates – Goodwill See Note 13 for detail information relating to goodwill. Fair Values – Nonrecurring See Note 10 for detail on our fair values related to impairments. Fair Values – Financial Instruments Our current assets and liabilities include financial instruments, the most significant of which are receivables, the current portion of our long-term debt and payables. We believe the carrying values of our receivables and payables approximate fair value. Our fair value assessment incorporates a variety of considerations, including (1) the short-term duration of the instruments, (2) our credit rating and (3) our historical incurrence of and expected future insignificant bad debt expense, which includes an evaluation of counterparty credit risk. The following table summarizes financial instruments, excluding receivables, payables and derivative financial instruments, and their reported fair values by individual balance sheet line item at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. March 31, 2021 December 31, 2020 (In millions) Fair Value Carrying Amount Fair Value Carrying Amount Financial assets Current assets $ 4 $ 4 $ 4 $ 4 Other noncurrent assets 23 37 24 37 Total financial assets $ 27 $ 41 $ 28 $ 41 Financial liabilities Current liabilities $ 76 $ 109 $ 72 $ 103 Long-term debt, including current portion (a) 6,035 5,431 6,077 5,431 Deferred credits and other liabilities 105 72 103 76 Total financial liabilities $ 6,216 $ 5,612 $ 6,252 $ 5,610 (a) Excludes debt issuance costs. Fair values of our financial assets included in other noncurrent assets, and of our financial liabilities included in other current liabilities and deferred credits and other liabilities, are measured using an income approach and most inputs are internally generated, which results in a Level 3 classification. Estimated future cash flows are discounted using a rate deemed appropriate to obtain the fair value.

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
Debt	Debt Revolving Credit Facility As of March 31, 2021, we had no borrowings against our $3.0 billion unsecured revolving credit facility (“Credit Facility”), as described below. The Credit Facility includes a covenant requiring our total debt to total capitalization ratio not to exceed 65% as of the last day of each fiscal quarter. In the event of a default, the lenders holding more than half of the commitments may terminate the commitments under the Credit Facility and require the immediate repayment of all outstanding borrowings and the cash collateralization of all outstanding letters of credit under the Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2021, we were in compliance with this covenant with a ratio of 26%. Debt Redemption On March 30, 2021, we sent an irrevocable notice of redemption to the trustee to fully redeem our outstanding $500 million 2.8% Senior Notes due 2022 (“2022 Notes”). As such, the balance was reclassified to current liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2021. The 2022 Notes were redeemed subsequent to the first quarter on April 29, 2021. Long-term debt At March 31, 2021, we had $4.9 billion of total long-term debt outstanding. Our next significant long-term debt maturity is in the amount of $900 million due June 2025. Refer to our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a listing of our long-term debt maturities.

The total remaining share repurchase authorization was $1.3 billion at March 31, 2021. Purchases under the program are made at our discretion and may be in either open market transactions, including block purchases, or in privately negotiated transactions using cash on hand, cash generated from operations, or proceeds from potential asset sales. This program may be changed based upon our financial condition or changes in market conditions and is subject to termination prior to completion.

Stock-based performance unit awards During the first quarter of 2021, we granted stock-based performance unit awards as generally described in our 2020 Form 10-K, but with the addition of two indices to the peer group for these 2021 grants. During the first quarter of 2021, we also granted an additional type of stock-based performance unit award to eligible officers under the Marathon Oil Corporation 2019 Incentive Compensation Plan. At the grant date for these new stock-based performance units, each unit represents the value of one share of our common stock. These units are settled in cash, and the amount to be paid is generally based on the product of the number of units granted, the vesting percentage, and the average daily closing price of our common stock during the final 30 calendar days ending on the last trading day of the performance period. The vesting percentage can range from zero to 200%, which is based on performance achieved over a two-year performance period and as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The performance metric is a predetermined amount of cumulative free cash flow, as defined by the award agreement, generated by the Company over the performance period. The units have a banking feature whereby the stock price valuation and vesting percentage are generally locked in at 50% and then again at 100%, if achieved during the performance period. Once those milestones are reached, the vesting percentage will not fall below those banked percentage amounts even if cumulative free cash flow subsequently declines during the performance period. Also, dividend equivalents may accrue generally during the performance period and would be paid in cash following the end of the performance period based on the amount of dividends credited over the performance period on shares of our common stock that represent the value of the units granted multiplied by the number of units that vest. During the first three months of 2021, we granted the following: • 307,473 stock-based performance units to certain officers to be settled in shares. The grant date fair value per unit was $18.07, as calculated using a Monte Carlo valuation model.

(b) Net periodic benefit costs (credits) reflects a calculated market-related value of plan assets which recognizes changes in fair value over three years. During the first three months of 2021, we made contributions of $7 million to our funded pension plan. During the first three months of 2021, we also made a payment of $2 million related to other postretirement benefit plans. We currently expect to contribute an additional $26 million in contributions to our funded pension plan this year. However, as part of the American Rescue Plan Act passed by Congress and signed into law in March 2021, our funded pension plan is eligible for pension funding relief. As a result of the relief, required contributions could be lower than current projections, which might result in contributions to the plan this year that are lower than the current expected amount.

Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments and Contingencies	3 Months Ended

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	Commitments and Contingencies In the second quarter of 2019, Marathon E.G. Production Limited (“MEGPL”), a consolidated and wholly owned subsidiary, signed a series of agreements to process third-party Alen Unit gas through existing infrastructure located in Punta Europa, E.G. Our equity method investee, Alba Plant LLC, is also a party to some of the agreements. These agreements contain clauses that require MEGPL to indemnify the owners of the Alen Unit against injury to Alba Plant LLC’s personnel and damage to or loss of Alba Plant LLC’s automobiles, as well as third party claims caused by Alba Plant and certain environmental liabilities arising from certain hydrocarbons in the custody of Alba Plant LLC. Pursuant to these agreements, MEGPL agreed to indemnify third party property or events, including environmental liabilities, injury to Alba Plant LLC’s personnel and damage to or loss of Alba Plant LLC’s automobiles. At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate this obligation as we do not have any history of prior indemnification claims or environmental discharge or contamination. Therefore, we have not recorded a liability with respect to these indemnities since the amount of potential future payments under these indemnification clauses is not determinable. The agreements to process the third-party Alen Unit gas required the execution of third-party guarantees by Marathon Oil Corporation in favor of the Alen Unit’s owners. Two separate guarantees were executed during the second quarter of 2020; one for a maximum of $91 million pertaining to the payment obligations of Equatorial Guinea LNG Operations, S.A. and another for a maximum of $25 million pertaining to the payment obligations of Alba Plant LLC. Payment by us would be required if either of those entities fails to honor its payment obligations pursuant to the relevant agreements with the owners of the Alen Unit. Certain owners of the Alen Unit, or their affiliates, are also direct or indirect shareholders in Equatorial Guinea LNG Operations, S.A. and Alba Plant LLC. Each guarantee expires no later than December 31, 2027. We measured these guarantees at fair value using the net present value of premium payments we expect to receive from our investees. Our liability for these guarantees was $4 million as of March 31, 2021, with a corresponding receivable from our investees. Each of Equatorial Guinea LNG Operations, S.A. and Equatorial Guinea LNG Train 1, S.A. provided us with a pledge of its receivables as recourse against any payments we may make under the guaranty of Equatorial Guinea LNG Operations, S.A.’s performance. Various groups, including the State of North Dakota and three Indian tribes represented by the Bureau of Indian Affairs, have been involved in a dispute regarding the ownership of certain lands underlying the Missouri River and Little Missouri River. As a result, as of March 31, 2021, we have a $114 million current liability in suspended royalty and working interest revenue, including interest, of which $104 million was included within accounts payable and $10 million related to accrued interest and was included within other current liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet. Additionally, we have a long-term receivable of $23 million for capital and expenses. In January 2020, we received a Notice of Violation from the EPA related to the Clean Air Act. The enforcement action will likely result in monetary sanctions and corrective actions yet-to-be specified and while the ultimate outcome and impact to us cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe these enforcement actions will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. We are a defendant in a number of legal and administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business including, but not limited to, royalty claims, contract claims, tax disputes and environmental claims. While the ultimate outcome and impact to us cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe the resolution of these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In addition, we may also be subject to retained liabilities with respect to certain divested assets by operation of law. For example, declines in commodity prices have created an environment where there is an increased risk that owners and/or operators of assets purchased from us may no longer be able to satisfy plugging or abandonment obligations that attach to those assets. In that event, due to operation of law, we may be required to assume plugging or abandonment obligations for those assets. Although we have established reserves for any such liabilities, we could be required to accrue additional amounts in the future and these amounts could be material. We have incurred and will continue to incur capital, operating and maintenance, and remediation expenditures as a result of environmental laws and regulations. If these expenditures, as with all costs, are not ultimately offset by the prices we receive for our products and services, our operating results will be adversely affected. We believe that substantially all of our competitors must comply with similar environmental laws and regulations. However, the specific impact on each competitor may vary depending on a number of factors, including the age and location of its operating facilities, marketing areas and production processes. These laws generally provide for control of pollutants released into the environment and require responsible parties to undertake remediation of hazardous waste disposal sites. Penalties may be imposed for noncompliance. At March 31, 2021, accrued liabilities for remediation were not material. It is not presently possible to estimate the ultimate amount of all remediation cost that might be incurred or the penalties that may be imposed.
