	1.          ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
	GeoPetro Resources Company (“we,” “us,” “our,” “GeoPetro” or the “Company”) was originally incorporated as GeoPetro Company under the laws of the State of Wyoming in 1994 to participate in the oil and gas acquisition, exploration, development and production business in the United States and internationally. GeoPetro Company was subsequently merged into GeoPetro Resources Subsidiary Company, a California corporation, on June 28, 1996. GeoPetro’s name was then changed to GeoPetro Resources Company. GeoPetro’s corporate office is in San Francisco, California. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of GeoPetro and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

	2.          LIQUIDITY
	As of December 31, 2013, GeoPetro had a cash balance of $10,857, a working capital deficit of $8,034,168 and an accumulated deficit of $52,977,441.  Further, GeoPetro generated net losses attributable to common shareholders of $3,247,828 and $4,260,682 during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 respectively.  GeoPetro’s ability to meet its contractual obligations and remit payment under its arrangements with its vendors depends on its ability to generate additional financing or future revenue.  GeoPetro’s management continues to renegotiate the terms of its existing borrowing arrangements and raise additional capital through debt and equity issuances. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustment that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
	Since its inception, GeoPetro has participated as a working interest owner in the acquisition of undeveloped leases, seismic options, lease options and foreign concessions and has participated in seismic surveys and the drilling of test wells on its undeveloped properties.  In December 2008, we acquired a natural gas treatment plant in East Texas.  Exploratory and development drilling is scheduled during 2014 and future periods on GeoPetro’s undeveloped properties and expansion is planned on the natural gas treatment plant.  The planned expansion at the natural gas treatment plant and the exploration activities together with others that may be entered into exceed the existing working capital of GeoPetro.  Management will need to raise additional equity and/or debt capital, to finance its continued activities.  Management believes that GeoPetro will be successful in obtaining adequate sources of cash to fund its anticipated capital expenditures and operating expense through the end of 2014, but there can be no assurance that management will be successful in raising sufficient additional equity and/or debt capital.  If additional financing is not available, GeoPetro will be compelled to reduce the scope of its business activities including, but not limited to, the following:
		●	Selling working interests and assets in its Madisonville operations to other parties;
		●	Farming-out its interest in proposed wells;
		●	Forfeiting its interest in wells that are proposed to be drilled and/or;
		●	Reducing general and administrative expenses;
	As a result of the Company’s liquidity issues, it may be required to sell certain assets, including reserves and/or raise capital with terms that may not be as favorable as might otherwise be available.
	In April 2012, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Redwood Energy Production, L.P., elected to temporarily shut-in its natural gas production at the Madisonville Field, Madison County, Texas in light of depressed natural gas prices. As of December 31, 2013, the Madisonville Field remains shut-in. For the year ended December 31, 2012, 100% of the Company's revenue was derived from the natural gas production in the Madisonville Field.
	As of December 31, 2013, Stuart J. Doshi, President and CEO, has advanced to the Company twenty-seven loans totaling $851,000.  The notes bear interest at 10% per annum and are payable on demand (Note 5).  As of December 31, 2013, a Company Director has advanced to the Company a loan in the amount of $50,000.  The note bears an annual rate of 10% and matures in June 2014 (Note 5).
	On February 28, 2013, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), with MCW Energy Group Limited, an Ontario corporation (“MCW”), and MCW CA SUB, a California corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”). On April 4, 2013, the Company entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Merger Agreement. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”) and the Company will survive the Merger and continue as a subsidiary of MCW. The Merger Agreement has been approved by Boards of Directors of each of the Company, MCW and Merger Sub.  The merger is subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory and shareholder approval. A material consideration for GeoPetro to pursue the merger was the Parent Financing of $20,000,000 which was to be completed prior to closing. As of March 31, 2014, MCW has yet to complete the Parent Financing contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Since the merger did not close by September 30, 2013, either party may terminate the Merger Agreement.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]	'
Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block]	'
	3.          SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
	U.S. GAAP—The Company’s financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted within the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
	Use of Estimates and Significant Estimates—Certain amounts in GeoPetro’s financial statements are based upon significant estimates, including oil and gas reserve quantities which form the basis for the calculation of depreciation, depletion, amortization and impairment of oil and gas properties, the carrying values of unproved properties, asset retirement obligations, accounting for business combinations and share-based payments, and a provision for income taxes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
	Oil and Gas Properties—GeoPetro follows the full cost method of accounting for oil and gas producing activities and, accordingly, capitalizes all costs incurred in the acquisition,  exploration, and development of proved oil and gas properties, including the costs of abandoned properties, dry holes, geophysical costs, and annual lease rentals. All general corporate costs are expensed as incurred. In general, sales or other dispositions of oil and gas properties are accounted for as adjustments to capitalized costs, with no gain or loss recorded. Costs incurred for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Amortization of proved oil and gas properties is computed on the units of production method based on all proved reserves on a country by country basis. Unproved oil and gas properties are assessed for impairment either individually or on an aggregate basis. The net capitalized costs of proved oil and gas properties (full cost ceiling limitation) are not to exceed their related estimated future net revenues discounted at 10%, and the lower of cost or estimated fair value of unproved properties, net of tax considerations.
	Asset Impairment—Under full cost accounting, a ceiling test is performed to ensure that unamortized capitalized costs in each cost center (country) do not exceed their fair value.  Impairment is recognized when the carrying value is greater than the discounted future cash flows.  In the event of impairment, the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the long-lived asset is charged to earnings. The present value of estimated future net revenues is computed by applying average oil and gas prices to estimated future production of proved oil and gas reserves as of period-end, less estimated future expenditures to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves assuming the continuation of existing economic conditions. SEC rules require that reserve calculations be based on the un-weighted average first-day-of-the-month prices for the prior twelve months. There was no impairment of proved oil and gas properties indicated at either December 31, 2013 or December 31, 2012.
	For the unproved properties, the Company evaluates the possibility of potential impairment on a quarterly basis.  During the year ended December 31, 2013 approximately $366,320 of unproved property costs related to Canada exploration projects were reclassified to proved property and ceiling test impairment was recorded in the Canada full cost pool as the underlying leases have expired.  Also during the year ended December 31, 2013 approximately $3,710,658 of unproved property costs related to Alaska exploration projects were reclassified to proved property and due to the existence of proved reserves in the United States, no ceiling test impairment was recorded. During the year ended December 31, 2012 approximately $587,040 of unproved property costs related to Indonesia exploration projects were reclassified to proved property and ceiling test impairment was recorded in the Indonesia full cost pool as negotiations with the Indonesian government for an extension of the Bengara II Production Sharing Contract (“PSC”) have terminated. The PSC shall now be relinquished and allowed to expire in accordance with its terms. In addition, approximately $33,616 of unproved property costs related to Canada exploration projects were reclassified to proved property and ceiling test impairment was recorded in the Canada full cost pool.
	Joint Ventures—Some exploration and production activities are conducted jointly with others and, accordingly, the accounts reflect only GeoPetro’s proportionate interest in such activities.
	Revenue Recognition—Revenue is recognized upon delivery of gas production.
	Asset Retirement Obligation—The fair value of an asset retirement cost, and corresponding liability, are recorded as part of the cost of the related long-lived asset and subsequently allocated to expense using a systematic and rational method. GeoPetro recorded an asset retirement obligation to reflect GeoPetro’s legal obligations related to future plugging and abandonment of its oil and gas wells. GeoPetro estimated the expected cash flow associated with the obligation and discounted the amount using a credit-adjusted, risk-free interest rate. At least annually, GeoPetro reassesses the obligation to determine whether a change in the estimated obligation is necessary. GeoPetro evaluates whether there are indicators that suggest the estimated cash flows underlying the obligation have materially changed. Should those indicators suggest the estimated obligation has materially changed, GeoPetro will accordingly update its assessment.
	There are asset retirement obligations associated with the Plant. However, components of the Plant can be used for extended and indeterminate periods of time as long as they are properly maintained and/or upgraded. GeoPetro’s intent is to maintain the Plant assets and continue making improvements to those assets based on technological advances. As a result, GeoPetro’s management believes that the Plant has an indeterminate life for purposes of estimating asset retirement obligations because dates or ranges of dates upon which GeoPetro would retire the Plant cannot reasonably be estimated.
		December 31,
		2013		2012
	Asset retirement obligations, beginning of period	$	75,000	$	75,000
	Liabilities incurred		—		—
	Accretion expense		—		—
	Asset retirement obligations, end of period	$	75,000	$	75,000
	Furniture, Fixtures and Equipment—Furniture, fixtures and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided on furniture, fixtures and equipment using the straight-line method over an estimated service life of three to seven years.
	Income Taxes—GeoPetro accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method wherein deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Because management has determined that realization of deferred tax assets is not more likely than not, the net deferred tax assets are fully reserved.
	Concentrations of Credit Risk—Credit risk represents the accounting loss that would be recognized at the reporting date if counterparties failed completely to perform as contracted. Concentrations of credit risk (whether on or off balance sheet) that arise from financial instruments exist for groups of customers or counterparties when they have similar economic characteristics that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic or other conditions described below. The credit risk amounts for cash and accounts receivable do not take into account the value of any collateral or security.
	GeoPetro maintains several cash accounts with higher quality financial institutions in amounts which occasionally exceed current federal deposit insurance limits. Senior management continuously reviews these institutions for financial stability. The Company has not experienced any losses in connection with amounts in excess of federal deposit limits.
	During the year ended December 31, 2012, substantially all of the Company’s natural gas production was sold to Luminant Energy Company, LLC.
	There were no trade accounts receivable at December 31, 2013 or 2012.
	Trade Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts—Accounts receivable, oil and gas sales, consist of uncollateralized accrued revenues due under normal trade terms, generally requiring payment within 30 days.  No interest is charged on past-due balances.  Payments made on all accounts receivable are applied to the earliest unpaid items.  Trade accounts receivable are recorded at net realizable value. If the financial condition of GeoPetro’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required. Delinquent trade accounts receivable are charged against the allowance for doubtful accounts once uncollectibility has been determined. The allowance is determined through an analysis of the past-due status of accounts receivable and assessments of risk that are based on historical trends and an evaluation of the impact of current and projected economic conditions. There was no allowance for doubtful accounts needed as of December 31, 2013 or 2012.
	Fair Value of Financial Instruments—The estimated fair values for financial instruments are determined at discrete points in time based on relevant market information. These estimates involve uncertainties and cannot be determined with precision. For certain of GeoPetro’s financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and current portion of notes payable, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their maturities. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company has no financial instruments required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
	Share-Based Payments—The Company has a stock-based compensation plan that allows employees to purchase common shares of the Company. Option exercise prices approximate the market price for the common shares on the date the options were issued. Options granted under the plan are generally fully exercisable after five years and expire five to ten years after the grant date. The Company measures and records stock-based awards to directors, employees and consultants based on the grant-date fair value, determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with assumptions for: risk free interest rates, expected dividend yield, expected life of the option, and the expected volatility. The compensation expense was recorded ratably over the requisite service period defined in the award.  The Company recorded $258,194 and $422,999 of stock-based employee compensation for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. (Note 8)
	Net Loss per Common Share—Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.
	Diluted net loss per common share is computed in the same manner, but also considers the effect of common stock shares underlying the following:
		Years Ended December 31,
		2013		2012
	Stock options (Note 8)		955,000		3,445,000
	Warrants (Note 9)		6,237,369		5,983,265
	Convertible preferred stock, Series B		5,370,027		5,423,000
	All of the common shares underlying the stock options and warrants above were excluded from diluted weighted average shares outstanding for each of the years in the period ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 because their effects were antidilutive.
	Segment Reporting—GeoPetro has oil and gas exploration, development and production operations in the United States, Canada, Australia and Indonesia. All revenues and related costs are associated with operations in the United States. A summary of assets and capital expenditures by geographical segment is included in Note 4.
	Cash and Cash Equivalents—Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts held in banks and highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less.
	Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements— The Company has evaluated recent accounting pronouncements and their adoption and we have not identified any that would have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, or statements.

	In April 2012, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Redwood Energy Production, L.P., elected to temporarily shut-in its natural gas production at the Madisonville Field, Madison County, Texas in light of depressed natural gas prices. As of December 31, 2013, the Madisonville Field remains shut-in.
	The Company sold certain oil and gas properties for approximately $50,000 and approximately $500,000 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
	The Company reclassified, from unproved properties, costs associated with United States projects of $3,710,658 to the full cost pool for the year ended December 31, 2013. Due to the existence of proved reserves in the United States, no ceiling test impairment was required to be recorded.
	The Company reclassified costs associated with Indonesia projects of $587,040 to the full cost pool for the year ended December 31, 2012.  Considering that we do not have any proved reserves in Indonesia, those costs were immediately charged to impairment.
	The Company reclassified costs associated with Canada projects of $366,320 and $33,616 to the full cost pool for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  Considering that we do not have any proved reserves in Canada, those costs were immediately charged to impairment.
	The Company has proved undeveloped reserves included in the carrying value of its proved properties.  The Company is confident capital will be raised to further develop these reserves, however, if such capital is not raised, the Company may be required to impair the Proved property asset in the future.
	Unproved Oil and Gas Properties—United States—As GeoPetro’s properties are evaluated through exploration, they will be included in the amortization base. The prospects and their related costs in unproved properties have been assessed individually and in 2013, the Company reclassified costs of $3,710,658 associated with its Alaska prospect to the full cost pool due to uncertainty regarding Linc Energy’s ability to develop the prospect.
	Unproved properties in the United States as of December 31, 2013 consist primarily of exploration costs related to our California prospect. The cost basis of unproved properties in California as of December 31, 2013 is $1,104,142.
	Costs incurred in connection with unproved properties in the United States during the year ended December 31, 2013 consisted primarily of exploration costs in connection with GeoPetro’s California prospect.  Subject to approval of drilling permits, drilling on the California prospect is anticipated to commence in 2015.
	Unproved Oil and Gas Properties—Australia—Unproved costs incurred in Australia represent costs in connection with the exploration of two exploration permit areas in Australia. The prospects and their related costs in unproved properties have been assessed individually and no impairment charges were considered necessary for the Australian properties for any of the periods presented. On June 20, 2007, the Company entered into a contract to sell its Australian Properties to an unaffiliated third party. These costs remaining in unproved properties represent our retained interest.
	Unproved Oil and Gas Properties—Indonesia—Unproved costs incurred in Indonesia related to the Bengara Block represent costs in connection with one production sharing contract area and the exploration efforts in Indonesia.
	The Company had retained a carried 12% stake in the Bengara II Block PSC through its investment in Continental-GeoPetro (Bengara-II) Ltd. (“C-G Bengara”), the operator company of the project with offices in Jakarta, Indonesia. The Company has been notified that the operator of the Bengara II Production Sharing Contract (“PSC”) has terminated negotiations with the Indonesian government for an extension of the PSC’s terms. The PSC shall now be relinquished and allowed to expire in accordance with its terms. As a result, the Company has recorded an impairment charge of $587,040 to its oil and gas properties for the year ended December 31, 2012.
	Unproved Oil and Gas Properties—Canada—Unproved costs incurred in Canada primarily represent costs in connection with the Swan Hills Project in Alberta, Canada. These leases expired in 2013. As a result, the Company has recorded an impairment charge of $366,320 to its oil and gas properties for the year ended December 31, 2013. For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company recorded an impairment charge to its oil and gas properties of $33,616 for costs associated with an abandoned prospect.
	Breakdown of Unproved Oil and Gas Properties—The following table sets forth a summary of oil and gas property costs not being amortized at December 31, 2013, by the period in which the costs were incurred:
		Totals			2013			2012			2011			2010 and
														Prior Years
	Unproved property acquisition	$	635,209		$	—		$	—		$	—		$	635,209
	Exploration		1,991,651			179,019			149,037			66,277			1,597,318
	Total	$	2,626,860		$	179,019		$	149,037		$	66,277		$	2,232,527
	Management expects that planned activities for the year 2014 will enable the evaluation of approximately 25% of the costs as of December 31, 2013. Evaluation of 30% of the remaining costs is expected to occur in 2015 with the remaining 45% in 2016 and beyond.
	Gas Processing Plant
	There are asset retirement obligations associated with the Plant. However, components of the Plant can be used for extended and indeterminate periods of time as long as they are properly maintained and/or upgraded. GeoPetro’s intent is to maintain the Plant assets and continue making improvements to those assets based on technological advances. As a result, GeoPetro’s management believes that the Plant has an indeterminate life for purposes of estimating asset retirement obligations because dates or ranges of dates upon which GeoPetro would retire the Plant cannot reasonably be estimated.

	6.          INCOME TAXES
	The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various states.  There are currently no federal or state income tax examinations underway.  Furthermore, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations by the Internal Revenue Service for tax years before 2009 and for state and local tax authorities for tax years before 2008.  The Company does, however, have net operating losses generated in tax years 1997 and after, which remain open for examination.
	The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 740 (formerly SFAS 109 and FIN 48), on January 1, 2007. As of December 31, 2007 the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits. There have been no changes during the year with respect to unrecognized tax benefits.  The Company does not foresee the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits significantly increasing within the next 12 months.  Furthermore, no corresponding interest and penalties have been accrued as the Company is in a net operating loss position.
	ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of the assets and liabilities. Where it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the deferred tax asset to its realizable value.
	A valuation allowance has been provided against the Company’s net deferred tax assets as the Company believes that it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets will not be realized.
	The effective income tax rates for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were negligible, primarily due to the Company’s loss position and the deferred tax asset being 100% reserved.
	The provision for income taxes consists of the following:
		2013			2012
	Current
	Federal	$	—		$	—
	State		1,600			9,664
	Foreign		—			—

	Federal		—			—
	State		—			—
	Foreign		—			—
	Total		—			—
	Total Income Tax Provision	$	1,600		$	9,664
	The actual income tax (benefit) expense differs from the expected tax (benefit) expense as computed by applying the U.S. Federal corporate income tax rate of 35% for each period as follows:
		2013			2012
	Amount of expected tax benefit	$	(1,023,324	)	$	(1,456,563	)
	Non-deductible expenses		6,914			3,560

	Valuation allowance adjustments		1,016,410			1,453,003
		$	1,600		$	9,664
	Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets (liabilities) are as follows:
		2013			2012
	Deferred tax assets (liabilities)
	Net operating loss carry forwards	$	16,671,000		$	14,150,000

	Total deferred tax assets		20,143,000			17,615,000
	Valuation allowance		(20,143,000	)		(17,615,000	)
	Total net deferred taxes	$	—		$	—
	As of December 31, 2013, GeoPetro had net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards of approximately $42,030,000 for federal income tax purposes which begin to expire in 2018.  If the Company were to experience a change in ownership under Section 382, the Company may be limited in its ability to fully utilize its net operating losses.
	However, in accordance with ASC 718 (formerly SFAS 123(R)), a deferred tax asset has not been recognized for the portion of the net operating loss carryforwards that is attributable to excess tax deductions associated with the exercise of stock options which do not reduce income taxes payable. Accordingly, approximately $3,536,000 of GeoPetro’s federal NOL has not been benefited for financial statement purposes as it relates to excess tax deductions that have not reduced income taxes payable. The benefit of these excess tax deductions will not be recognized for financial statement purposes until the related deductions reduce income taxes payable.
	The Company also has approximately $12,510,000 of California net operating losses and approximately $670,000 of Alaska net operating losses which begin to expire in 2012 and 2026, respectively. In accordance with ASC 718, a portion of the state NOLs has similarly not been benefited for financial statement purposes as it relates to excess tax deductions which have not resulted in the reduction of income taxes payable. The benefit of such excess tax deductions will not be recognized for financial statement purposes until the related deductions reduce state income taxes payable.
	In addition, the Company has approximately $318,224,of carryforward credits in Texas, a portion of which may be utilized each year against Texas Margin Tax liability through 2027.

	8.          COMMON STOCK OPTIONS
	Effective as of September 10, 2001, the board of directors approved an incentive stock plan (“Stock Incentive Plan”), providing for awards under the terms and provisions of such plan of incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted stock awards to officers, directors and employees of GeoPetro and its consultants. The plan provides, among other provisions, the following:
		●	The maximum number of Common Shares which may be awarded, optioned and sold under the plan is 5,000,000 (subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends and certain other adjustments to GeoPetro’s common stock); and the per share exercise price for Common Shares to be issued pursuant to the exercise of an option shall be no less than the fair market value of GeoPetro’s Common Shares as of the date of grant;
		●	The Stock Incentive Plan provides for the granting to employees incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and for the granting of non-statutory stock options to directors who are not employees and consultants. In the case of employees who receive incentive stock options which are first exercisable in a particular calendar year and the aggregate fair market value of which exceeds $100,000, the excess of the $100,000 limitation shall be treated as a nonstatutory stock option under the Stock Incentive Plan;
		●	The Stock Incentive Plan is being administered by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors determines the terms of the options granted, including the number of Common Shares subject to each option, the exercisability and vesting requirements of each option, and the form of consideration payable upon the exercise of such option (i.e., whether cash or exchange of existing Common Shares in a cashless transaction or a combination thereof); and
		●	The Stock Incentive Plan will continue in effect for 10 years from September 10, 2001 (i.e., the date first adopted by the Board), unless sooner terminated by the board of directors. In 2004, we implemented a new 2004 Stock Option and Appreciation Rights Plan (“Stock Option Plan”) providing for awards of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options and stock appreciation rights. The Stock Option Plan replaced the Stock Incentive Plan as to new award grants effective in 2004 or thereafter to our directors, officers, employees and consultants. Outstanding awards issued under the Stock Incentive Plan will continue to be outstanding in accordance with their terms and the terms of the Stock Incentive Plan, but will count toward the limits in the number of shares of common stock available to be issued under the Stock Option Plan, which is 5,000,000. The exercise price of stock options granted under the Stock Option Plan may not be less than 110% of the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant.
	In May 2013, 150,000 common stock options with an exercise price of $1.00 per share expired.
	During the period of May through October 2013, 1,600,000 common stock options with an exercise price of $2.10 per share expired.
	In June 2013, 740,000 common stock options with an exercise price of $0.50 per share expired.
	In August 2012, we granted 675,000 stock options at an exercise price of $0.16 per share.  These options will vest ratably over five years pursuant to the terms of the Stock Option Plan.  The grant date fair value of the options was $70,831.
	The Company recorded stock compensation expense of $258,194 and $422,999 for the twelve months period ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
	A summary of the status of GeoPetro’s stock option plan is as follows:
			Options			Exercise								Weighted Average
						Prices								Exercise Price
	Outstanding at January 1, 2012			2,770,000		$0.50				to	$2.10			$	1.46
	Granted			675,000						$0.16					0.16
	Exercised			—						—					—
	Expired			—						—					—
	Outstanding at December 31, 2012			3,445,000		$0.16				to	$2.10				1.21
	Granted			—						—					—
	Exercised			—						—					—
	Expired			(2,490,000	)	$0.50				to	$2.10				1.56
	Outstanding at December 31, 2013			955,000		$0.16				to	$1.00			$	0.29
	We estimated the fair values of each option granted using the Black-Scholes model with the following assumptions for options granted during the years ended December 31:
			2013				2012
	Expected dividend yield			—				—
	Expected volatility			—	%			105.6	%
	Risk-free interest rates			—	%			0.59	%
	Expected lives (years)			—				5
	Weighted average fair values per share		$	—			$	0.11
	We estimated the dividend yield at 0% considering that we have not historically paid dividends on our common stock, nor do we expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.  Volatility estimates represent the historic trading volatility underlying our common stock at the date of grant.  We estimated risk-free interest rates based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve at the date of grant.  Expected lives are based on our historic experience with employee option exercise behavior and consider the vesting period and the contractual lives of the related options.
	The options outstanding as of December 31, 2013 have the following contractual lives:
	Number of						Number of			Exercise		Weighted Average
	Options						Options			Prices		Remaining
	Outstanding						Exercisable					Contractual Life
	675,000						135,000				0.16		3.67
	220,000						127,000				0.5		1.67
	60,000						48,000				1		0.48
	955,000						310,000
	The total intrinsic value of options outstanding was $0 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The intrinsic value for exercisable options was $0 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
	As of December 31, 2013, there are 310,000 options which are exercisable. The remaining 645,000 options will become exercisable over the next four years. The stock compensation expense related to the unvested awards is $76,109. The weighted average remaining contractual life of the remaining 645,000 unvested options is 3.33 years.

	Employment Agreements—The Company entered into a contract of employment with Stuart J. Doshi, Founder, President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors, as amended through December 31, 2008. The contract, as amended, provides for a five-year term commencing May 1, 2005 which term is automatically extended for successive two-year renewal terms unless: (a) the board of directors elects not to renew the contract and the Company provides notice to Mr. Doshi of such non-renewal at least six months prior to the expiry of his employment term or any renewal term, or (b) Mr. Doshi attains age 75, in which case the term ends upon the completion of the calendar year in which he becomes 75 years old unless the Company and Mr. Doshi mutually agree to one-year extensions. The contract of employment currently provides for an annual base salary of $300,000 and further provides that in the event of a change of control of the Company or if Mr. Doshi is terminated without cause, he is entitled to receive (a) in exchange for all of his vested stock options and vested restricted shares, such number of Common Shares having a market value equal to the difference between (x) the aggregate total market value of all vested restricted shares and Common Shares he would receive upon exercise of all vested stock options less (y) the aggregate total exercise price for all of his vested stock options; provided, however, that if the Common Shares to be delivered to Mr. Doshi upon such change of control or termination have not been registered so as to permit immediate public resale, Mr. Doshi shall instead receive a cash payment equal to the market value on the date of termination of all vested stock options and restricted shares without any discount for liquidity or minority position against cancellation of such options and restricted shares, (b) a cash payment equal to the greater of (i) his compensation for the remainder of his term, including salary and the aggregate amount of his bonuses in respect of the last four fiscal years and (ii) four times his compensation in the current year, including his then-current salary and the average amount of his bonuses for the last four fiscal years, and (c) an additional cash payment representing his employment benefits equal to 20% of the amount of salary he is entitled to receive under (b)(i) or (b)(ii) above, as applicable. In addition, in the event of a change of control or termination without cause, all unvested options issued by the Company to Mr. Doshi will vest.
	Office Lease—On February 15, 2010, we entered into a new lease for our principal executive office located at 150 California Street, Suite 600, San Francisco, CA 94111.  The terms of the lease provide for an eighty-four (84) month term. Minimum annual rentals due under this agreement as of December 31, 2013 are as follows:

	Rent expense for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, was approximately $144,834 and $144,834, respectively, and is included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations.
	On January 6, 2011, we entered into a sublease agreement whereby a portion of the Company’s principal executive offices have been leased to a third party. The terms of the sublease agreement include a seventy-five month term cancelable by either party with ninety days written notice after December 31, 2011. The Company will recoup approximately 50% of the base rental obligation through the sublease agreement. This amount was approximately $96,503 and $82,419 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and has been included as a reduction in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations.
	Madisonville Net Profits Interest—Redwood LP’s 100% working interest is subject to a net profits interest in favor of unrelated third parties. The net profits interest is 12.5% (proportionately reduced) of the net operating profits until payout is achieved. After payout, the net profits interest increases to 30% (proportionately reduced). Payout, for purposes of the net profits interest, is defined and achieved at such time as Redwood LP has recouped from net operating cash flows its total net investment in the project plus a 33% cash on cash return.

	12.        SUPPLEMENTARY OIL AND GAS RESERVE INFORMATION: (UNAUDITED)
	The reserve quantities and valuations are based upon estimates by MHA Petroleum Consultants LLC. The proved reserves presented herein are located entirely within the United States. Proved reserves are the estimated quantities of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids which geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions, i.e. prices and costs as of the date the estimate is made. SEC rules require that reserve calculations be based on the un-weighted average first-day-of-the-month prices for the prior twelve months. Prices include consideration of changes in existing prices provided only by contractual arrangements, but not on escalations based upon future conditions. Reservoirs are considered proved if economic productivity is supported by either actual production or a conclusive formation test. The area of a reservoir considered proved includes (A) that portion delineated by drilling and defined by gas-oil and/or oil-water contacts, if any, and (B) the immediately adjoining portions not yet drilled, but which can reasonably be judged as economically productive on the basis of available geological and engineering data. In the absence of information on fluid contacts the lowest known structural occurrence of hydrocarbons controls the lower proved limit of the reservoir.
	Proved developed reserves are reserves that can be expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods. Additional oil and gas reserves expected to be obtained through the application of fluid injection or other improved recovery techniques for supplementing the natural forces and mechanisms of primary recovery should be included as “proved developed reserves” only after testing by a pilot project or after the operation of an installed program has confirmed through production response that increased recovery will be achieved.
	The estimates included in the following tables are by their nature inexact and are subject to changing economic, operating and contractual conditions. At December 31, 2013, all of GeoPetro’s reserves are attributable to two wells capable of production, one shut-in well and two undeveloped locations. Other than the producing wells and one shut-in well, there is no other production history as of or subsequent to that date. Reserve estimates for these wells are subject to substantial upward or downward revisions after production commences and a production history is obtained.   Accordingly, reserve estimates of future net revenues from production may be subject to substantial revision from year to year. Reserve information presented herein is based on reports prepared by independent petroleum engineers.
	The assumptions used to compute the standardized measure are those prescribed by the Financial Accounting Standards Board and, as such, do not necessarily reflect GeoPetro’s expectations for actual revenues to be derived from those reserves nor their present worth. The limitations inherent in the reserve quantity estimation process, as discussed previously, are equally applicable to the standardized measure computations since these are the basis for the valuation process.

	The following is a discussion of the material changes in our proved reserve quantities for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.
	Year Ended December 31, 2013
	The upward revision of previous estimates of natural gas reserves during 2013 of 1,249 MMcf is attributable to increases in natural gas prices which has affected the economic life of the wells. Natural gas prices increased approximately 35% from December 31, 2012 ($2.46 per Mcf) to December 31, 2013 ($3.31 per Mcf).
	Year Ended December 31, 2012
	The downward revision of previous estimates of natural gas reserves during 2012 of 984 MMcf is attributable to decreases in natural gas prices which has affected the economic life of the wells. Natural gas prices decreased approximately 35% from December 31, 2011 ($3.76 per Mcf) to December 31, 2012 ($2.46 per Mcf).
	Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows Relating to Proved Reserves
	For purposes of the following disclosures, estimates were made of quantities of proved reserves and the periods during which they are expected to be produced. Future cash flows for the 2013 and 2012 estimates were computed by applying the simple arithmetic average of the natural gas price in effect on the first day of each month to estimated annual future net production from proved gas reserves, amounting to $3.31 per Mcf and $2.46 per Mcf at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. For both 2013 and 2012, future development and production costs were computed by applying year-end costs to be incurred in producing and further developing the proved reserves. Future income tax expenses were computed by applying, generally, year-end statutory tax rates (adjusted for permanent differences, tax credits and allowances) to the estimated net future pre-tax cash flows. The discount was computed by application of a 10% discount factor. The calculations assume the continuation of existing economic, operating and contractual conditions. However, such arbitrary assumptions have not proven to be the case in the past. Other assumptions of equal validity could give rise to substantially different results.

Accounting Policies, by Policy (Policies)	12 Months Ended
	Dec. 31, 2013
Accounting Policies [Abstract]	'
Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	U.S. GAAP—The Company’s financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted within the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	Use of Estimates and Significant Estimates—Certain amounts in GeoPetro’s financial statements are based upon significant estimates, including oil and gas reserve quantities which form the basis for the calculation of depreciation, depletion, amortization and impairment of oil and gas properties, the carrying values of unproved properties, asset retirement obligations, accounting for business combinations and share-based payments, and a provision for income taxes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
Oil and Gas Properties Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	Oil and Gas Properties—GeoPetro follows the full cost method of accounting for oil and gas producing activities and, accordingly, capitalizes all costs incurred in the acquisition,  exploration, and development of proved oil and gas properties, including the costs of abandoned properties, dry holes, geophysical costs, and annual lease rentals. All general corporate costs are expensed as incurred. In general, sales or other dispositions of oil and gas properties are accounted for as adjustments to capitalized costs, with no gain or loss recorded. Costs incurred for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Amortization of proved oil and gas properties is computed on the units of production method based on all proved reserves on a country by country basis. Unproved oil and gas properties are assessed for impairment either individually or on an aggregate basis. The net capitalized costs of proved oil and gas properties (full cost ceiling limitation) are not to exceed their related estimated future net revenues discounted at 10%, and the lower of cost or estimated fair value of unproved properties, net of tax considerations.
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	Asset Impairment—Under full cost accounting, a ceiling test is performed to ensure that unamortized capitalized costs in each cost center (country) do not exceed their fair value.  Impairment is recognized when the carrying value is greater than the discounted future cash flows.  In the event of impairment, the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the long-lived asset is charged to earnings. The present value of estimated future net revenues is computed by applying average oil and gas prices to estimated future production of proved oil and gas reserves as of period-end, less estimated future expenditures to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves assuming the continuation of existing economic conditions. SEC rules require that reserve calculations be based on the un-weighted average first-day-of-the-month prices for the prior twelve months. There was no impairment of proved oil and gas properties indicated at either December 31, 2013 or December 31, 2012.
	For the unproved properties, the Company evaluates the possibility of potential impairment on a quarterly basis.  During the year ended December 31, 2013 approximately $366,320 of unproved property costs related to Canada exploration projects were reclassified to proved property and ceiling test impairment was recorded in the Canada full cost pool as the underlying leases have expired.  Also during the year ended December 31, 2013 approximately $3,710,658 of unproved property costs related to Alaska exploration projects were reclassified to proved property and due to the existence of proved reserves in the United States, no ceiling test impairment was recorded. During the year ended December 31, 2012 approximately $587,040 of unproved property costs related to Indonesia exploration projects were reclassified to proved property and ceiling test impairment was recorded in the Indonesia full cost pool as negotiations with the Indonesian government for an extension of the Bengara II Production Sharing Contract (“PSC”) have terminated. The PSC shall now be relinquished and allowed to expire in accordance with its terms. In addition, approximately $33,616 of unproved property costs related to Canada exploration projects were reclassified to proved property and ceiling test impairment was recorded in the Canada full cost pool.
Interest in Unincorporated Joint Ventures or Partnerships, Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	Joint Ventures—Some exploration and production activities are conducted jointly with others and, accordingly, the accounts reflect only GeoPetro’s proportionate interest in such activities.
Revenue Recognition, Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	Revenue Recognition—Revenue is recognized upon delivery of gas production.
Asset Retirement Obligations, Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	Asset Retirement Obligation—The fair value of an asset retirement cost, and corresponding liability, are recorded as part of the cost of the related long-lived asset and subsequently allocated to expense using a systematic and rational method. GeoPetro recorded an asset retirement obligation to reflect GeoPetro’s legal obligations related to future plugging and abandonment of its oil and gas wells. GeoPetro estimated the expected cash flow associated with the obligation and discounted the amount using a credit-adjusted, risk-free interest rate. At least annually, GeoPetro reassesses the obligation to determine whether a change in the estimated obligation is necessary. GeoPetro evaluates whether there are indicators that suggest the estimated cash flows underlying the obligation have materially changed. Should those indicators suggest the estimated obligation has materially changed, GeoPetro will accordingly update its assessment.
	There are asset retirement obligations associated with the Plant. However, components of the Plant can be used for extended and indeterminate periods of time as long as they are properly maintained and/or upgraded. GeoPetro’s intent is to maintain the Plant assets and continue making improvements to those assets based on technological advances. As a result, GeoPetro’s management believes that the Plant has an indeterminate life for purposes of estimating asset retirement obligations because dates or ranges of dates upon which GeoPetro would retire the Plant cannot reasonably be estimated.

Property, Plant and Equipment, Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	Furniture, Fixtures and Equipment—Furniture, fixtures and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided on furniture, fixtures and equipment using the straight-line method over an estimated service life of three to seven years.
Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	Income Taxes—GeoPetro accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method wherein deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Because management has determined that realization of deferred tax assets is not more likely than not, the net deferred tax assets are fully reserved.
Concentration Risk, Credit Risk, Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	Concentrations of Credit Risk—Credit risk represents the accounting loss that would be recognized at the reporting date if counterparties failed completely to perform as contracted. Concentrations of credit risk (whether on or off balance sheet) that arise from financial instruments exist for groups of customers or counterparties when they have similar economic characteristics that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic or other conditions described below. The credit risk amounts for cash and accounts receivable do not take into account the value of any collateral or security.
	GeoPetro maintains several cash accounts with higher quality financial institutions in amounts which occasionally exceed current federal deposit insurance limits. Senior management continuously reviews these institutions for financial stability. The Company has not experienced any losses in connection with amounts in excess of federal deposit limits.
	During the year ended December 31, 2012, substantially all of the Company’s natural gas production was sold to Luminant Energy Company, LLC.
	There were no trade accounts receivable at December 31, 2013 or 2012.
Receivables, Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	Trade Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts—Accounts receivable, oil and gas sales, consist of uncollateralized accrued revenues due under normal trade terms, generally requiring payment within 30 days.  No interest is charged on past-due balances.  Payments made on all accounts receivable are applied to the earliest unpaid items.  Trade accounts receivable are recorded at net realizable value. If the financial condition of GeoPetro’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required. Delinquent trade accounts receivable are charged against the allowance for doubtful accounts once uncollectibility has been determined. The allowance is determined through an analysis of the past-due status of accounts receivable and assessments of risk that are based on historical trends and an evaluation of the impact of current and projected economic conditions. There was no allowance for doubtful accounts needed as of December 31, 2013 or 2012.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	Fair Value of Financial Instruments—The estimated fair values for financial instruments are determined at discrete points in time based on relevant market information. These estimates involve uncertainties and cannot be determined with precision. For certain of GeoPetro’s financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and current portion of notes payable, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their maturities. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company has no financial instruments required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
Share-based Compensation, Option and Incentive Plans Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	Share-Based Payments—The Company has a stock-based compensation plan that allows employees to purchase common shares of the Company. Option exercise prices approximate the market price for the common shares on the date the options were issued. Options granted under the plan are generally fully exercisable after five years and expire five to ten years after the grant date. The Company measures and records stock-based awards to directors, employees and consultants based on the grant-date fair value, determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with assumptions for: risk free interest rates, expected dividend yield, expected life of the option, and the expected volatility. The compensation expense was recorded ratably over the requisite service period defined in the award.  The Company recorded $258,194 and $422,999 of stock-based employee compensation for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. (Note 8)
Earnings Per Share, Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	Net Loss per Common Share—Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.
	Diluted net loss per common share is computed in the same manner, but also considers the effect of common stock shares underlying the following:
		Years Ended December 31,
		2013		2012
	Stock options (Note 8)		955,000		3,445,000
	Warrants (Note 9)		6,237,369		5,983,265
	Convertible preferred stock, Series B		5,370,027		5,423,000
	All of the common shares underlying the stock options and warrants above were excluded from diluted weighted average shares outstanding for each of the years in the period ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 because their effects were antidilutive.
Segment Reporting, Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	Segment Reporting—GeoPetro has oil and gas exploration, development and production operations in the United States, Canada, Australia and Indonesia. All revenues and related costs are associated with operations in the United States. A summary of assets and capital expenditures by geographical segment is included in Note 4.
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	Cash and Cash Equivalents—Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts held in banks and highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less.
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements— The Company has evaluated recent accounting pronouncements and their adoption and we have not identified any that would have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, or statements.
