Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
INTERIM FINANCIAL DATA | INTERIM FINANCIAL DATA The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Golden Ocean Group Ltd. (“Golden Ocean,” the “Company,” "we," or "our") have been prepared on the same basis as the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, include all material adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of the Company's consolidated financial statements, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2016, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 5, 2017. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the disclosures required in an Annual Report on Form 20-F. The results of operations for the interim period ended June 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year ending December 31, 2017. In the first quarter of 2017 the Company entered into agreements to acquire 16 modern dry bulk vessels in transactions where the Company would issue in aggregate 17.8 million consideration shares and assume debt of $285.2 million (the "Acquisition"). Of the 16 acquired vessels, 14 were acquired from subsidiaries of Quintana Shipping Ltd. ("Quintana") and two ice-class Panamax vessels acquired from affiliates of Hemen Holding Ltd. ("Hemen"), the Company's largest shareholder. The vessels acquired from Quintana consist of one Newcastlemax, five Capesizes and eight Panamaxes, mainly built in Japan and Korea. 11 of the 14 Quintana vessels were delivered to the Company in the second quarter of 2017. For the two 2017-built ice-class Panamax vessels acquired from affiliates of Hemen, the Company agreed a consideration of 3.3 million shares of the Company and a seller's credit of $22.5 million that matures in June 2019. The vessels were delivered to the Company in June 2017. As of June 30, 2017, the Company capitalized $343.3 million under vessel and equipment related to the acquisitions of 13 vessels. The consideration for the acquired vessels primarily comprised 14,950,000 shares of the Company, which were valued based on the Company's share price at the time of each vessel's delivery and $219.4 million in assumed debt financing. Reverse stock split On August 1, 2016, the Company effected a one-for-five reverse stock split. All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split. The common share par value was adjusted as a result of the reverse stock split as disclosed in these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements. |

ACCOUNTING POLICIES | ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of accounting These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the assets and liabilities of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation. Accounting Policies Preparation of these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments and estimates. Some accounting policies have a significant impact on amounts reported in these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Our accounting policies have not changed from those reported in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 20-F. Net income as a result of the revenue sharing agreement for the Capesize vessels is presented as other operating income (expenses). Comparative numbers have been revised to conform with the current presentation. |

New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Abstract] | |
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS | RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS Accounting Standards Updates, not yet adopted In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under US GAAP. The core principle is that a company should recognize revenue when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU No. 2014-09 along with related amendments ASU Nos. 2016-20, 2016-12, 2016-10, 2016-08, and 2015-14 comprise ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and provide guidance that is applicable to all contracts with customers regardless of industry-specific or transaction-specific fact patterns. The update establishes a five-step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing US GAAP. The new standard and its related updates are effective retrospectively for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2017. On the effective date, the Company will apply the new guidance retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented, or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance recognized at the date of initial application. The Company is in the process of considering the impact of the standard on its consolidated financial statements. For vessels operating on voyage charters, we expect to continue recognizing revenue over time. The time period over which revenue will be recognized is still being determined and, depending on the final conclusion, each period’s voyage results could differ materially from the same period’s voyage results recognized based on the present revenue recognition guidance. However, the total voyage results recognized over all periods would not change. The adoption of the standard is not expected to have a material impact on other income, primarily income earned from the commercial management of related party vessels. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01 Financial instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10) - Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The amendments in this update require all equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in the fair value recognized through net income (other than those accounted for under equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee). The amendments in this update also require an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments. In addition, the amendments in this update eliminate the requirement to disclose the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost for entities that are not public business entities and the requirement for to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet for public business entities. The amendments in this update will affect us for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently considering the impact of these amendments on our consolidated financial statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (ASC 842), which requires lessees to recognize most leases on the balance sheet. This is expected to increase both reported assets and liabilities. For public companies, the standard will be effective for the first interim reporting period within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, although early adoption is permitted. Lessees and lessors will be required to apply the new standard at the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements in which they first apply the new guidance, using a modified retrospective transition method. The requirements of this standard include a significant increase in required disclosures. Management is analyzing the impact of the adoption of this guidance on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, including assessing changes that might be necessary to information technology systems, processes and internal controls to capture new data and address changes in financial reporting. Management expects that we will recognize increases in reported amounts for property, plant and equipment and related lease liabilities upon adoption of the new standard. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which revises guidance for the accounting for credit losses on financial instruments within its scope. The new standard introduces an approach, based on expected losses, to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments and modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities. The guidance will be effective January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted. Entities are required to apply the standard’s provisions as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is adopted. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of this standard update on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of cash flows (Topic 230): Classification of certain cash receipts and cash payments. This ASU addresses the following eight specific cash flow issues: Debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs; settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments or other debt instruments with coupon interest rates that are insignificant in relation to the effective interest rate of the borrowing; contingent consideration payments made after a business combination; proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims; proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies (COLIs) (including bank-owned life insurance policies (BOLIs)); distributions received from equity method investees; beneficial interests in securitization transactions; and separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle. The amendments in this Update are effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. The amendments in this Update should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. If it is impracticable to apply the amendments retrospectively for some of the issues, the amendments for those issues would be applied prospectively as of the earliest date practicable. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of this standard update on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of cash flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. The new standard requires that the statement of cash flows explains the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. The amendments in this Update are effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The amendments in this Update should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of this standard update on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In December 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting. The update provides guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. The amendments in this Update are effective for the Company for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period, for reporting periods for which financial statements have not yet been issued. The amendments in this Update should be applied prospectively to an award modified on or after the adoption date. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of this standard update on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. Accounting Standards Updates, recently adopted In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11-Inventory (Topic 330)-Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory, which applies to inventory that is measured using first-in, first-out (FIFO) or average cost. An entity should measure inventory within the scope of this update at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. Subsequent measurement is unchanged for inventory measured using LIFO or the retail inventory method. The amendments in this update more closely align the measurement of inventory in GAAP with the measurement of inventory in IFRS. The adoption of ASU 2015-11 has not had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-07, Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting. The update eliminates the requirement that an investor retrospectively apply equity method accounting when an investment that it had accounted for by another method initially qualifies for use of the equity method. The adoption of ASU 2016-07 has not had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The update simplifies the accounting for share based payment transactions. The adoption of ASU 2016-09 has not had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017- 01 Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The update introduces a screen to determine when an integrated set of assets and activities does not constitute a business. As under the screening mechanisms of the update, future transactions in relation to an integrated set of assets and activities are more likely to qualify as asset acquisitions as opposed to business combinations. The adoption of ASU 2017-01 has not had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
EARNINGS PER SHARE | EARNINGS PER SHARE The components of the numerator and the denominator in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 are as follows: (in thousands of $) 2017 2016 Net loss (29,840 ) (107,452 ) (in thousands) 2017 2016 Weighted average number of shares outstanding - basic 114,134 84,405 Impact of share options & restricted stock units — 2 Weighted average number of shares outstanding - diluted 114,134 84,407 The exercise of vested share options using the treasury stock method was anti-dilutive as of June 30, 2017 and 2016 , as the Company reports a net loss for the periods then ended. Therefore, as of June 30, 2017 and 2016 , 84,000 and 88,000 shares, respectively, were excluded from the denominator in each calculation. The conversion of the convertible bonds using the if-converted method was anti-dilutive as of June 30, 2017 and 2016 , as the Company reports a net loss for the periods then ended. Therefore, as of June 30, 2017 and 2016 , 2,268,860 and 2,268,860 shares, respectively, were excluded from the denominator in each calculation. In July 2017, the Company issued 2,850,000 compensation shares to Quintana following delivery of the remaining three purchased vessels. The issuance of shares that occurred after June 30, 2017 would have changed materially the number of common shares outstanding at June 30, 2017, had this issuance occurred prior to the end of the period. On August 1, 2016, the Company completed a 1-for-5 reverse share split of the Company's common shares, whereby every five of the Company's issued and outstanding common shares with par value $0.01 per share were automatically combined into one issued and outstanding common share with par value $0.05 per share. The weighted average number of shares outstanding, the number of restricted stock units and the number of shares of the anti-dilutive instruments were retroactively adjusted in the calculations of the basic and diluted earnings per share. |

SEGMENT INFORMATION | SEGMENT INFORMATION The chief operating decision maker, or the CODM, measures performance based on the overall return to shareholders based on consolidated net income. The CODM does not review a measure of operating result at a lower level than the consolidated group and the Company only has one reportable segment. The vessels operate worldwide and therefore management does not evaluate performance by geographical region as this information is not meaningful. |

In the third quarter of 2015, eight vessels were sold and leased back from Ship Finance International Limited ("Ship Finance") for a period of ten years. The daily time charter rate is $17,600 during the first seven years and $14,900 in the remaining three years, of which $7,000 is for operating expenses (including dry docking costs). We have a purchase option of $112 million en-bloc after ten years and, if such option is not exercised, Ship Finance will have the option to extend the charters by three years at $14,900 per day. Since the daily time charter rate is not constant over the extended lease term, we have straight lined the total expense over the term, and an amount of $1.8 million was credited to charter hire expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2017 (six months ended June 30, 2016 : $3.3 million ) with the corresponding asset presented as part of other long term asset.

For the period from April 1, 2016 to September 30, 2018, there will be no repayments on these facilities, subject to a cash sweep mechanism as described below. The minimum value covenant is set at 100% with a subsequent increase to 125% or 135% (depending on the facility) on October 1, 2018 and the market adjusted equity ratio is waived up until the same date. The Company has also agreed that for the nine ( six as of the date of this report) remaining newbuilding contracts where the Company has financing in the $425.0 million term loan facility, there will be a fixed draw down of $25.0 million per vessel subject to compliance with the minimum value covenant of 100% for the period. The margins on the loans are unchanged, however, the Company will pay an increased margin of 4.25% for the deferred repayments under the loan facilities. The Company will resume repayment of each loan on October 1, 2018 based on the repayment model as if October 1, 2018 was April 1, 2016 regardless of any repayment made during the period in accordance with the cash sweep mechanism described below and without affecting the final maturity date. A cash sweep mechanism is in place whereby the Company will pay down on the deferred repayment amount should the cash position improve. The Company will report and furnish our lenders at the end of each first and third quarter a calculation of free projected cash anticipated at September 30, 2018, or the Free Projected Cash. All Free Projected Cash above a threshold of $25 million will be used to repay the loans on the cash sweep repayment date, which is when the compliance certificates fall due. The first cash sweep repayment date was due at the end of the third quarter of 2016. The cash sweep that the Company will pay to each lender will be based on a relative value of the deferred amount in each facility as calculated as per end of that half year period equal to: • the installments that had fallen due and payable under the agreements during that period had not such installments been suspended in accordance; over • all regular installments that had fallen due and payable under all existing credit facilities during that period had not such installments been suspended. Existing credit facilities include the Loan Facilities and the $22 million senior secured term loan agreement made between Golden Opus Inc and the Company as guarantor of 50% of the facility. Any repayments made under the cash sweep will be applied against balloon payments due on the loans. Due to the operation of the cash sweep mechanism, the Company will not be permitted to make any cash dividend payments without the prior approval of the Company's lenders in the period to September 30, 2018. The impact of these loan amendments was to defer $113.9 million of loan repayments due in the period from April, 1 2016 to September 30, 2018 and to postpone repayments on future drawings on the delivery of newbuilding vessels and Golden Opus Inc in this period. In the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company drew down $50.0 million from its $425 million term loan facility in connection with the two Capesize newbuildings delivered during the period and repaid floating rate debt of $54.0 million in accumulated deferred debt repayments through the cash sweep mechanism set in place as part of the amended terms under the loan agreements entered into in the first quarter 2016. As of June 30, 2017, the deferred repayments under the loan facilities amounted to $14.5 million. Based on the improved cash position and amended terms on the outstanding newbuildings, but subject to market development and working capital changes in the third quarter of 2017, the Company expects to prepay a significant part of the deferred debt repayments during the fourth quarter of 2017 through the cash sweep mechanism. The movement of $5.0 million on the U.S dollar denominated fixed rate debt in 2017 represents the amortization of purchase price adjustments arising from the Merger. The Company has recorded deferred charges of $4.7 million at June 30, 2017 as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, $0.7 million amortization in total was recognized. The Company presents the amortization expense of deferred charges under interest expense. Comparative numbers have been revised to conform with current presentation. New loan facilities In the six months ended June 30, 2017 , as part of the Acquisition, the Company assumed debt of $219.4 million ( $109.2 million term loan, $73.4 million term loan and $80.2 million term loan) in relation to 11 delivered vessels from Quintana and $22.5 million seller's credits in relation to two delivered vessels from Hemen. According to the loan agreements entered into with the lenders with respect to the acquired vessels from Quintana, the Company down paid $14.5 million of the debt, covering three regular quarterly repayments, in exchange for no mandatory debt repayment until July 2019. In the period prior to July 2019, a cash sweep mechanism is put in place whereby if certain conditions are met, the Company will pay down on the deferred repayment amount of $40.6 million . The cash sweep is calculated semi-annually with first potential payment following the end of the first quarter of 2018. The average interest rate of the debt in connection with the acquisition of the vessels from Quintana is LIBOR plus 3.1% margin. Ordinary debt repayments, following the end of the waiver period in July 2019, will amount to $5.8 million per quarter. Pursuant to the loan agreements, our wholly-owned non-recourse subsidiary which indirectly owns the vessels acquired from Quintana is prohibited from paying dividends to the parent company. During the waiver period through June 2019, the Company will be required under the loan agreements to satisfy financial covenants including $10 million in minimum cash and 105% minimum asset value. Following this waiver period, the financial covenants under these loans will include 25% market adjusted equity, $10 million in minimum cash and 125% to 135% minimum asset value. The outstanding debt at June 30, 2017 is repayable as follows; (in thousands of $) 2017 (remaining six months) — 2018 78,038 2019 561,810 2020 379,338 2021 269,085 Thereafter 21,600 1,309,871 Fair value purchase price adjustment of convertible bond debt (17,714 ) 1,292,157 Assets pledged As of June 30, 2017 , 61 vessels ( December 31, 2016 : forty-five vessels) with an aggregate carrying value of $2,193.8 million ( December 31, 2016 : $1,733.2 million ) were pledged as security for our floating rate debt. |

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES | FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES Interest rate risk management As of June 30, 2017 , we had nine ( December 31, 2016 : seven ) interest rate swaps. These swaps are intended to reduce the risk associated with fluctuations in interest rates whereby the floating interest rate on an original principal amount of $500 million ( December 31, 2016 : $400 million ) of the then anticipated debt was switched to fixed rate. Credit risk exists to the extent that the counter parties are unable to perform under the contracts but this risk is considered remote as the counter parties are well established banks, which may also participate in loan facilities to which the interest rate swaps are related. The interest rate swaps are not designated as hedging instruments. Changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap transactions are recorded in "Loss on derivatives" in the consolidated statement of operations, as disclosed in Note 13. Forward freight agreements We take positions from time to time in the freight forward market, either as a hedge to a physical contract or as a speculative position. All such contracts are cleared through clearing houses and the Company uses NasdaqOMX in this respect. Credit risk exists to the extent that NasdaqOMX is unable to perform under the contracts but this risk is considered remote. As of June 30, 2017 , we had open positions aggregating to 210 days with maturities in the third quarter of 2017. As of December 31, 2016 , we did not have any open positions. The losses on freight forward agreements are recorded in "Loss on derivatives" in the consolidated statement of operations, as disclosed in Note 13. Bunker derivatives We enter into cargo contracts from time to time. We are then exposed to fluctuations in bunker prices, as the cargo contract price is based on an assumed bunker price for the trade. There is no guarantee that the hedge removes all the risk from the bunker exposure, due to possible differences in location and timing of the bunkering between the physical and financial position. The counterparties to such contracts are major banking and financial institutions. Credit risk exists to the extent that the counter parties are unable to perform under the contracts but this risk is considered remote as the counter parties are usually well established banks or other well renowned institutions in the market As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , we had outstanding bunker swap agreements for about 23.7 thousand metric tonnes and 3.6 thousand metric tonnes, respectively. Losses on bunker derivatives are recorded in "Loss on derivatives" in the consolidated statement of operations, as disclosed in Note 13. Foreign currency risk The majority of our transactions, assets and liabilities are denominated in United States dollars, our functional currency. However, we incur expenditure in currencies other than the functional currency, mainly in Norwegian Kroner and Singapore Dollars. There is a risk that currency fluctuations in transactions incurred in currencies other than the functional currency will have a negative effect of the value of our cash flows. We are then exposed to currency fluctuations and we may enter into foreign currency swaps to mitigate such risk exposures. The counterparties to such contracts are major banking and financial institutions. Credit risk exists to the extent that the counter parties are unable to perform under the contracts but this risk is considered remote as the counter parties are well established banks. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , we had contracts to swap USD to NOK for a notional amount of $6.9 million and $7.2 million , respectively. Changes in the fair value of foreign currency swaps are recorded in "Loss on derivatives" in the consolidated statement of operations, as disclosed in Note 13. Fair values The guidance for fair value measurements applies to all assets and liabilities that are being measured and reported on a fair value basis. This guidance enables the reader of the financial statements to assess the inputs used to develop those measurements by establishing a hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. The same guidance requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value should be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories based on the inputs used to determine its fair value: Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data; Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data. In addition, ASC 815, “ Derivatives and Hedging ” requires companies to recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the statement of financial position. The carrying value and estimated fair value of our financial instruments at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 are as follows: 2017 2017 2016 2016 (in thousands of $) Fair Value Carrying Value Fair Value Carrying Value Assets Cash and cash equivalents 122,699 122,699 212,942 212,942 Restricted cash 68,529 68,529 54,112 54,112 Liabilities Long term debt - floating 1,087,371 1,087,371 886,468 886,468 Long term debt - convertible bond 179,914 182,286 162,122 177,300 Long term debt - related party seller's credit 22,500 22,500 — — The fair value hierarchy of our financial instruments at June 30, 2017 is as follows: (in thousands of $) 2017 Fair Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets Cash and cash equivalents 122,699 122,699 — — Restricted cash 68,529 68,529 — — Liabilities Long term debt - floating 1,087,371 — 1,087,371 — Long term debt - convertible bond 179,914 — 179,914 — Long term debt - related party seller's credit 22,500 — 22,500 — The fair value hierarchy of our financial instruments at December 31, 2016 is as follows: (in thousands of $) 2016 Fair Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets Cash and cash equivalents 212,942 212,942 — — Restricted cash 54,112 54,112 — — Liabilities Long term debt - floating 886,468 — 886,468 — Long term debt - convertible bond 162,122 — 162,122 — There have been no transfers between different levels in the fair value hierarchy during the six months ended June 30, 2017 . The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument: • The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, which are highly liquid, approximate fair value. • Restricted cash and investments – the balances relate entirely to restricted cash and the carrying values in the balance sheet approximate their fair value. • Floating rate debt - the carrying value in the balance sheet approximates the fair value since it bears a variable interest rate, which is reset on a quarterly basis. • Convertible bond – quoted market prices are not available, however the bonds are traded "over the counter" and the fair value of bonds is based on the market price on offer at the balance sheet date. Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis During the six months ended June 30, 2017 , no assets were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. During the year ended December 31, 2016 , the following assets were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis: • The investment in Golden Opus Inc was measured at fair value; the fair value was based on level three inputs, the expected market values of the underlying assets and liabilities. • The Golden Lyderhorn, a vessel held under capital lease was measured at fair value; the fair value was based on level three inputs, was determined using discounted expected future cash flows for the vessel. • The other long term asset acquired on completion of the Merger was measured at fair value; the fair value was based on level three inputs, the recoverable principal amount from the counterparty. Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis Marketable securities are listed equity securities considered to be available-for-sale securities for which the fair value as at the balance sheet date is their aggregate market value based on quoted market prices (level 1) for the investment in a company listed on a U.S. stock exchange and level two for the investment in the company listed on the Norwegian 'over the counter' market. The fair value (level 2) of interest rate, currency swap, deposit-swap contract and bunker swap agreements is the present value of the estimated future cash flows that we would receive or pay to terminate the agreements at the balance sheet date, taking into account, as applicable, fixed interest rates on interest rate swaps, current interest rates, forward rate curves, current and future bunker prices and the credit worthiness of both us and the derivative counterparty. Concentrations of risk There is a concentration of credit risk with respect to cash and cash equivalents to the extent that substantially all of the amounts are carried with Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken, DnB ASA and Nordea Bank Norge ASA. However, we believe this risk is remote, as these financial institutions are established and reputable establishments with no prior history of default. We do not require collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk. |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES We insure the legal liability risks for our shipping activities with Assuranceforeningen SKULD, Assuranceforeningen Gard Gjensidig and North of England, all mutual protection and indemnity associations. We are subject to calls payable to the associations based on our claims record in addition to the claims records of all other members of the associations. A contingent liability exists to the extent that the claims records of the members of the associations in the aggregate show significant deterioration, which result in additional calls on the members. We are a party, as plaintiff or defendant, to several lawsuits in various jurisdictions for demurrage, damages, off-hire and other claims and commercial disputes arising from the operation of our vessels, in the ordinary course of business or in connection with our acquisition activities. We believe that the resolution of such claims will not have a material adverse effect on our operations or financial condition. We have one vessel held under capital lease, the Golden Eclipse, which was agreed sold in 2008 and leased back for a period of 10 years upon delivery of the vessel in 2010. We have the right to purchase the vessel at the dates and amounts as disclosed in Note 9. As of June 30, 2017 , the joint venture that owns the Golden Opus had total bank debt outstanding of $16.0 million ( December 31, 2016 : $17.9 million ) and we had guaranteed 50% of this amount. Consequently, our maximum potential liability was $8.0 million ( December 31, 2016 : $9.0 million ). We have not recorded any liability in respect of this arrangement. In June 2017, the joint venture entered into an agreement to sell the Golden Opus for $28.9 million to an unrelated party with expected delivery in September 2017. We sold eight vessels to Ship Finance in the third quarter of 2015 and leased them back on charters for an initial period of ten years. We have a purchase option of $112 million en-bloc after ten years and, if such option is not exercised, Ship Finance will have the option to extend the charters by three years at $14,900 per day. At June 30, 2017 , we had six newbuildings under construction. Our outstanding commitments at June 30, 2017 and as at the date of this report for these newbuildings amounted to $173.9 million due in 2018. In 2016, an arbitration tribunal assessed a final arbitration award relating to a time charter party for a third-party vessel entered into in March 2006. The claimants were awarded approximately $9.8 million in total. The claim itself was an unsafe port allegation, which falls under our protection and indemnity insurance and will be covered by our insurance company. As of June 30, 2017 , 11 of the 14 vessels we agreed to acquire from Quintana were delivered. The three remaining vessels were delivered in July 2017 and as a result all vessels have been delivered at the date of this report. For the remaining three vessels delivered in July 2017, we issued 2,850,000 consideration shares, assumed $43.3 million in bank debt and paid $2.9 million in installments on the bank debt. Charterhire and office rent expense The future minimum rental payments under our non-cancelable operating leases as of June 30, 2017 are as follows: (in thousands of $) 2017 (six months to December 31) 17,451 2018 37,006 2019 35,367 2020 35,472 2021 35,066 Thereafter 169,205 329,567 |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of accounting | Basis of accounting These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the assets and liabilities of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation. |
Recently issued accounting standards | Accounting Standards Updates, not yet adopted In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under US GAAP. The core principle is that a company should recognize revenue when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU No. 2014-09 along with related amendments ASU Nos. 2016-20, 2016-12, 2016-10, 2016-08, and 2015-14 comprise ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and provide guidance that is applicable to all contracts with customers regardless of industry-specific or transaction-specific fact patterns. The update establishes a five-step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing US GAAP. The new standard and its related updates are effective retrospectively for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2017. On the effective date, the Company will apply the new guidance retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented, or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance recognized at the date of initial application. The Company is in the process of considering the impact of the standard on its consolidated financial statements. For vessels operating on voyage charters, we expect to continue recognizing revenue over time. The time period over which revenue will be recognized is still being determined and, depending on the final conclusion, each period’s voyage results could differ materially from the same period’s voyage results recognized based on the present revenue recognition guidance. However, the total voyage results recognized over all periods would not change. The adoption of the standard is not expected to have a material impact on other income, primarily income earned from the commercial management of related party vessels. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01 Financial instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10) - Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The amendments in this update require all equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in the fair value recognized through net income (other than those accounted for under equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee). The amendments in this update also require an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments. In addition, the amendments in this update eliminate the requirement to disclose the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost for entities that are not public business entities and the requirement for to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet for public business entities. The amendments in this update will affect us for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently considering the impact of these amendments on our consolidated financial statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (ASC 842), which requires lessees to recognize most leases on the balance sheet. This is expected to increase both reported assets and liabilities. For public companies, the standard will be effective for the first interim reporting period within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, although early adoption is permitted. Lessees and lessors will be required to apply the new standard at the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements in which they first apply the new guidance, using a modified retrospective transition method. The requirements of this standard include a significant increase in required disclosures. Management is analyzing the impact of the adoption of this guidance on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, including assessing changes that might be necessary to information technology systems, processes and internal controls to capture new data and address changes in financial reporting. Management expects that we will recognize increases in reported amounts for property, plant and equipment and related lease liabilities upon adoption of the new standard. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which revises guidance for the accounting for credit losses on financial instruments within its scope. The new standard introduces an approach, based on expected losses, to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments and modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities. The guidance will be effective January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted. Entities are required to apply the standard’s provisions as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is adopted. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of this standard update on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of cash flows (Topic 230): Classification of certain cash receipts and cash payments. This ASU addresses the following eight specific cash flow issues: Debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs; settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments or other debt instruments with coupon interest rates that are insignificant in relation to the effective interest rate of the borrowing; contingent consideration payments made after a business combination; proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims; proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies (COLIs) (including bank-owned life insurance policies (BOLIs)); distributions received from equity method investees; beneficial interests in securitization transactions; and separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle. The amendments in this Update are effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. The amendments in this Update should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. If it is impracticable to apply the amendments retrospectively for some of the issues, the amendments for those issues would be applied prospectively as of the earliest date practicable. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of this standard update on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of cash flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. The new standard requires that the statement of cash flows explains the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. The amendments in this Update are effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The amendments in this Update should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of this standard update on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In December 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting. The update provides guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. The amendments in this Update are effective for the Company for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period, for reporting periods for which financial statements have not yet been issued. The amendments in this Update should be applied prospectively to an award modified on or after the adoption date. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of this standard update on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. Accounting Standards Updates, recently adopted In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11-Inventory (Topic 330)-Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory, which applies to inventory that is measured using first-in, first-out (FIFO) or average cost. An entity should measure inventory within the scope of this update at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. Subsequent measurement is unchanged for inventory measured using LIFO or the retail inventory method. The amendments in this update more closely align the measurement of inventory in GAAP with the measurement of inventory in IFRS. The adoption of ASU 2015-11 has not had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-07, Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting. The update eliminates the requirement that an investor retrospectively apply equity method accounting when an investment that it had accounted for by another method initially qualifies for use of the equity method. The adoption of ASU 2016-07 has not had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The update simplifies the accounting for share based payment transactions. The adoption of ASU 2016-09 has not had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017- 01 Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The update introduces a screen to determine when an integrated set of assets and activities does not constitute a business. As under the screening mechanisms of the update, future transactions in relation to an integrated set of assets and activities are more likely to qualify as asset acquisitions as opposed to business combinations. The adoption of ASU 2017-01 has not had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. |
