Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Nature of operations	1. Nature of operations Organization and Business Superfund Green, L.P. (the “Fund”), a Delaware limited partnership, commenced operations on November 5, 2002. The Fund was organized to trade speculatively in the United States (“U.S.”) and international commodity futures and forward markets using a fully-automated computerized trading system. The Fund has issued two classes of units (“Units”), Series A and Series B (each, a “Series”). The two Series are traded and managed the same way except for the degree of leverage. The terms of Series A and Series B each shall continue until December 31, 2050, unless the applicable Series is terminated earlier by the Fund’s general partner, Superfund Capital Management, Inc. (“Superfund Capital Management”) or by operation of law or a decline in the aggregate net assets of such Series to less than $500,000.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of presentation and significant accounting policies	2. Basis of presentation and significant accounting policies Basis of Presentation The unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) with respect to the Form 10-Q 10-K Valuation of Investments in Futures Contracts and Forward Contracts All commodity interests (including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments) are used for trading purposes. The commodity interests are recorded on a trade date basis and open contracts are recorded in the statements of assets and liabilities at fair value on the last business day of the period, which represents market value for those commodity interests for which market quotes are readily available. Exchange-traded futures contracts are valued at settlement prices published by the recognized exchange. Any spot and forward foreign currency contracts held by the Fund will be valued at published settlement prices or at dealers’ quotes. Translation of Foreign Currency Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the period-end The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations arising from the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from fluctuations from changes in market prices of investments held. Such fluctuations are included in net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments in the statements of operations. Investment Transactions, Investment Income and Expenses Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis. Interest income and expenses are recognized on the accrual basis. Operating expenses of the Fund are allocated to each Series in proportion to the net asset value of the Series at the beginning of each month. Expenses directly attributable to a particular Series are charged directly to that Series. Gains or losses are realized when contracts are liquidated. Unrealized gains and losses on open contracts (the difference between contract trade price and market price) are reported in the statement of assets and liabilities as gross unrealized gain or loss, and any change in that amount from the prior period is reflected in the accompanying statement of operations. There exists a right of offset of unrealized gains or losses in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 210-20, Offsetting – Balance Sheet Set forth herein are instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the statements of assets and liabilities and which are subject to derivative clearing agreements with the Fund’s futures commission merchants. Each futures commission merchant nets margin held on behalf of each Series of the Fund or payment obligations of the futures commission merchant to each Series against any payment obligations of that Series to the futures commission merchant. Each Series is required to deposit margin at each futures commission merchant to meet the original and maintenance requirements established by that futures commission merchant, and/or the exchange or clearinghouse associated with the exchange on which the instrument is traded. The derivative clearing agreements give each futures commission merchant a security interest in this margin to secure any liabilities owed to the futures commission merchant arising from a default by the Series. As of March 31, 2017, the Fund had on deposit $1,380,203 at ADM Investor Services, Inc. and $4,500,428 at Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith. As of March 31, 2017, Series A had on deposit $650,480 at ADM Investor Services, Inc. and $1,617,148 at Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith. As of March 31, 2017, Series B had on deposit $729,723 at ADM Investor Services, Inc. and $2,883,280 at Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith. Income Taxes The Fund does not record a provision for U.S. income taxes because the partners report their share of the Fund’s income or loss on their returns. The financial statements reflect the Fund’s transactions without adjustment, if any, required for income tax purposes. Superfund Capital Management has evaluated the application of ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires Superfund Capital Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements	3 Months Ended

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	3. Fair Value Measurements The Fund follows ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities; Level 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not considered to be active or financial instruments for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly; Level 3: Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Derivative Contracts. over-the-counter OTC derivatives are valued using market transactions and other market evidence whenever possible, including market-based inputs to models, model calibration to market-clearing transactions, broker or dealer quotations, or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency. Where models are used, the selection of a particular model to value an OTC derivative depends upon the contractual terms of, and specific risks inherent in, the instrument as well as the availability of pricing information in the market. For OTC derivatives that trade in liquid markets, such as generic forwards and swaps, model inputs can generally be verified and model selection does not involve significant management judgment. The OTC derivatives held by the Fund may include forwards and swaps. Spot and forward foreign currency contracts held by the Fund are valued at published daily settlement prices or at dealers’ quotes. As of and for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 there were no forward or spot foreign currency contracts held by the Fund. Certain OTC derivatives trade in less liquid markets with limited pricing information, and the determination of fair value for these derivatives is inherently more difficult. Such instruments are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Where the Fund does not have corroborating market evidence to support significant model inputs and cannot verify the model to market transactions, transaction price is initially used as the best estimate of fair value. Accordingly, when a pricing model is used to value such an instrument, the model is adjusted so that the model value at inception equals the transaction price. The valuations of these less liquid OTC derivatives are typically based on Level 1 and/or Level 2 inputs that can be observed in the market, as well as unobservable Level 3 inputs. Subsequent to initial recognition, the Fund updates the Level 1 and Level 2 inputs to reflect observable market changes, with resulting gains and losses reflected within Level 3. Level 3 inputs are changed only when corroborated by evidence such as similar market transactions, third-party pricing services and/or broker or dealer quotations, or other empirical market data. In circumstances in which the Fund cannot verify the model value to market transactions, it is possible that a different valuation model could produce a materially different estimate of fair value. The Fund attempts to avoid holding less liquid OTC derivatives. However, once held, the market for any particular derivative contract could become less liquid during the holding period. There were no Level 3 holdings at March 31, 2017 or December 31, 2016 or during the periods then ended. The following table summarizes the valuation of the Fund’s assets and liabilities by the ASC 820 fair value hierarchy as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016: Superfund Green, L.P.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Disclosure of derivative instruments and hedging activities	4. Disclosure of derivative instruments and hedging activities The Fund follows ASC 815, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Derivative instruments held by the Fund do not qualify as derivative instruments held as hedging instruments, as defined in ASC 815. Instead, the Fund includes derivative instruments in its trading activity. Per the requirements of ASC 815, the Fund discloses the gains and losses on its trading activities for both derivative and nonderivative instruments in the Statements of Operations. The Fund engages in the speculative trading of futures contracts in a wide range of commodities, including equity markets, interest rates, food and fiber, energy, livestock, and metals. ASC 815 requires entities to recognize all derivatives instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the statement of financial position. Investments in commodity futures contracts are recorded in the statements of assets and liabilities as unrealized appreciation or depreciation on futures contracts purchased and futures contracts sold. Since the derivatives held or sold by the Fund are for speculative trading purposes, the derivative instruments are not designated as hedging instruments under the provisions of ASC 815. Accordingly, all realized gains and losses, as well as any change in net unrealized gains or losses on open positions from the preceding period, are recognized as part of the Fund’s realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments in the Statements of Operations.

Financial instrument risk	9. Financial instrument risk In the normal course of its business, the Fund is party to financial instruments with off-balance “off-balance For the Fund, gross unrealized gains and losses related to exchange-traded futures were $329,004 and $193,393, respectively, at March 31, 2017. For the Fund, gross unrealized gains and losses related to exchange-traded futures were $1,135,198 and $932,579, respectively, at March 31, 2016. For the Fund, gross unrealized gains and losses related to non-exchange For Series A, gross unrealized gains and losses related to exchange-traded futures were $87,903 and $52,384, respectively, at March 31, 2017. For Series A, gross unrealized gains and losses related to exchange-traded futures were $437,269 and $373,781, respectively, at March 31, 2016. For Series A, gross unrealized gains and losses related to non-exchange For Series B, gross unrealized gains and losses related to exchange-traded futures were $241,101 and $141,009, respectively, at March 31, 2017. For Series B, gross unrealized gains and losses related to exchange-traded futures were $697,929 and $558,798, respectively, at March 31, 2016. For Series B, gross unrealized gains and losses related to non-exchange Market risk is the potential for changes in the value of the financial instruments traded by the Fund due to market changes, including interest and foreign exchange rate movements and fluctuations in commodity or security prices. In entering into these contracts, there exists a market risk that such contracts may be significantly influenced by conditions such as interest rate volatility, resulting in such contracts being less valuable. If the markets should move against all of the futures interest positions at the same time, and Superfund Capital Management was unable to offset such positions, the Fund could experience substantial losses. Credit risk is the possibility that a loss may occur due to the failure of a counterparty to perform according to the terms of a contract. Credit risk with respect to exchange-traded instruments is reduced to the extent that an exchange or clearing organization acts as a counterparty to the transactions. The Fund’s risk of loss in the event of counterparty default is typically limited to the amounts recognized in the statements of assets and liabilities and not represented by the contract or notional amounts of the instruments. As the Fund’s assets are held in segregated accounts with futures commission merchants, the Fund has credit risk and concentration risk. The Fund’s futures commission merchants are currently ADM Investor Services, Inc. and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Inc. Superfund Capital Management monitors and attempts to control the Fund’s risk exposure on a daily basis through financial, credit, and risk management monitoring systems, and accordingly believes that it has effective procedures for evaluating and limiting the credit and market risks to which the Fund is subject. These monitoring systems allow Superfund Capital Management to statistically analyze actual trading results with risk adjusted performance indicators and correlation statistics. In addition, on-line The majority of these futures mature within one year of March 31, 2017. However, due to the nature of the Fund’s business, these instruments may not be held to maturity.

Subscriptions and redemptions	10. Subscriptions and redemptions Effective May 1, 2014, the Fund no longer accepts subscriptions. A Limited Partner may request any or all of his investment in such Series be redeemed by such Series at the net asset value of a Unit within such Series as of the end of each month, subject to a minimum redemption of $1,000 and subject further to such Limited Partner having an investment in such Series, after giving effect to the requested redemption, at least equal to the minimum initial investment amount of $10,000. Limited Partners must transmit a written request of such redemption to Superfund Capital Management not less than five business days prior to the end of the month (or such shorter period as permitted by Superfund Capital Management) as of which the redemption is to be effective. Redemptions will generally be paid within twenty days after the effective date of the redemption. However, in special circumstances, including, but not limited to, inability to liquidate dealers’ positions as of a redemption date or default or delay in payments due to each Series from clearing brokers, banks or other persons or entities, each Series may in turn delay payment to persons requesting redemption of the proportionate part of the net assets of each Series represented by the sums that are subject of such default or delay.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) with respect to the Form 10-Q 10-K
Valuation of Investments in Futures Contracts and Forward Contracts	Valuation of Investments in Futures Contracts and Forward Contracts All commodity interests (including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments) are used for trading purposes. The commodity interests are recorded on a trade date basis and open contracts are recorded in the statements of assets and liabilities at fair value on the last business day of the period, which represents market value for those commodity interests for which market quotes are readily available. Exchange-traded futures contracts are valued at settlement prices published by the recognized exchange. Any spot and forward foreign currency contracts held by the Fund will be valued at published settlement prices or at dealers’ quotes.
Translation of Foreign Currency	Translation of Foreign Currency Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the period-end The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations arising from the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from fluctuations from changes in market prices of investments held. Such fluctuations are included in net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments in the statements of operations.
Investment Transactions, Investment Income and Expenses	Investment Transactions, Investment Income and Expenses Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis. Interest income and expenses are recognized on the accrual basis. Operating expenses of the Fund are allocated to each Series in proportion to the net asset value of the Series at the beginning of each month. Expenses directly attributable to a particular Series are charged directly to that Series. Gains or losses are realized when contracts are liquidated. Unrealized gains and losses on open contracts (the difference between contract trade price and market price) are reported in the statement of assets and liabilities as gross unrealized gain or loss, and any change in that amount from the prior period is reflected in the accompanying statement of operations. There exists a right of offset of unrealized gains or losses in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 210-20, Offsetting – Balance Sheet Set forth herein are instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the statements of assets and liabilities and which are subject to derivative clearing agreements with the Fund’s futures commission merchants. Each futures commission merchant nets margin held on behalf of each Series of the Fund or payment obligations of the futures commission merchant to each Series against any payment obligations of that Series to the futures commission merchant. Each Series is required to deposit margin at each futures commission merchant to meet the original and maintenance requirements established by that futures commission merchant, and/or the exchange or clearinghouse associated with the exchange on which the instrument is traded. The derivative clearing agreements give each futures commission merchant a security interest in this margin to secure any liabilities owed to the futures commission merchant arising from a default by the Series. As of March 31, 2017, the Fund had on deposit $1,380,203 at ADM Investor Services, Inc. and $4,500,428 at Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith. As of March 31, 2017, Series A had on deposit $650,480 at ADM Investor Services, Inc. and $1,617,148 at Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith. As of March 31, 2017, Series B had on deposit $729,723 at ADM Investor Services, Inc. and $2,883,280 at Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith.
Income Taxes	Income Taxes The Fund does not record a provision for U.S. income taxes because the partners report their share of the Fund’s income or loss on their returns. The financial statements reflect the Fund’s transactions without adjustment, if any, required for income tax purposes. Superfund Capital Management has evaluated the application of ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires Superfund Capital Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
