Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Summary of significant accounting policies | Note 2 . Summary of significant accounting policies Principles of consolidation. The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the Company and its 100 percent owned subsidiaries. The consolidated financial statements also included the accounts of a variable interest entity (“VIE”) where the Company was the primary beneficiary of the arrangements until the VIE structure dissolved. See Note 5 for additional information regarding the circumstances surro unding the VIE. The Company consolidates the financial statements of these entities. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Reclassifications. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2018 presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on net income (loss), total stockholders’ equity or total cash flows. Use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements. Preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accept ed accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial stat ements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Depletion of oil and natural gas properties is determined using estimates of proved oil and natural gas reserves. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in the estimation of quantities of proved reserves and in the projection of future rates of production and the timing of development expenditures. Similarly, evaluations for impairment of proved and unproved oil and nat ural gas properties are subject to numerous uncertainties including, among others, estimates of future recoverable reserves, commodity price outlooks and prevailing market rates of other sources of income and costs. Other significant estimates include, but are not limited to, asset retirement obligations, fair value of stock-based compensation, fair value of business combinations, fair value of nonmonetary transactions, fair value of derivative financial instruments and income taxes. Interim financial stat ements. The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have not been audited by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, except that the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2017 is derived from audited consolidated fina ncial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s consolidated financial statements. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. In preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements, management has made certain estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and disclosures of contingencies. Actual results may differ from th ose estimates. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of annual results. Certain disclosures have been condensed in or omitted from these consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, these condensed notes to the consolidated fin ancial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 . Cash equivalents. The Company considers all cash on hand, deposi tory accounts held by banks, money market accounts and investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are held in financial institutions in amounts that may exceed the insurance limits of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. However, management believes that the Company’s counterparty risks are minimal based on the reputation and history of the institutions selected. Equity method investments. The Company accounts for its equity method investments under the equity method of accounting and includes the investment balance in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Gains and losses incurred from the Company’s equity investments are recorded in o ther income on the con solidated statements of operations. The Company owns a 23.75 perce nt membership interest in Oryx Southern Delaware Holdings, LLC (“Oryx”), an entity that operates a crude oil gathering and transportation system in the Southern Delaware Basin. During the three months ended March 31, 2018 , Oryx obtained a term loan of $800 million. The proceeds were used in part to fund a cash distribution to its equity holders, of which the Company received a distribution of approximately $157 million. Of this amount, a pproximately $54 million fully offset the Company’s net investment in Oryx. The remaining distribution of approximately $103 million was recorded in other income on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 since the lenders to the term loan do not have recourse against the Company , and the Company has no contractual obligation to repay the distribution . The Company’s net investment in Oryx was approximately $ 49 million at December 31, 2017 . During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 , the Company recorded income of approximately $ 5 million and $ 1 million, respectively. In February 2017, the Company closed on the divestiture of its 50 percent membership interest in a midstream joint venture, Alpha Crude Connector, LLC (“ACC”), that constructed a crude oil gathering and transportation system in the Northern Delaware Basin. See Note 5 for additional information regarding the disposition of ACC. Revenue recognition . On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC ”) Topic 606 , “Revenue from Contrac ts with Customers,” (“ ASC 606 ”) using the modified retrospective approach, which only applies to contracts that were not completed as of the date of initial application. The adoption did not require an adjustment to opening retained earnings for the cumula tive effect adjustment and does not have a material impact on the Company’s ong oing consolidated balance sheets, statements of operat ions, statement of stockholders’ equity, or statement s of cash flows. The C ompany recognizes revenues from the sales of o il and natural gas to its customers and presents them disaggregated on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. All revenues are recognized in the geographical region of the Permian Basin. P rior to the adoption of ASC 606, the Company recorded oil and natural gas revenues at the time of physical transfer of such products to the purchaser, which for the Company is primarily at the wellhead. The Company followed the sales method of accounting for oil and natural gas sales, recognizing revenues bas ed on the Company’s actual proceeds from the oil and natural gas sold to purchasers. The Company enters into contracts with customers to sell its oil and natural gas production. Revenue on these contracts is recognized in accordance with the five-step rev enue recognition model prescribed in ASC 606 . Specifically, revenue is recognized when the Company’s performance obligations under these contracts are satisfied, which generally occurs with the transfer of control of the oil and natural gas to the purchase r. Control is generally considered transfe rred when the following criteria are met: (i) transfer of physical custody, (ii) transfer of title, (iii) transfer of risk of loss and (iv) relinquishment of any repurchase rights or other similar rights. Given the nature of the products sold, reve nue is recognized at a point in time based on the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in accordance with the price specified in the contract. Consideration under the oil and natural gas marketing contrac ts is typically received from the purchaser one to two months after production. At March 31, 2018 , the Company had receivables related to contracts with customers of $ 392 million. The following table shows the impact of the adoption of ASC 606 on the Company’s current period results as compared to the previous revenue recognition standard, ASC Topic 605, “Revenue recognition ” (“ASC 605”): Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 (in millions) Under ASC 606 Under ASC 605 Increase (Decrease) Operating revenues: Oil sales $ 793 $ 791 $ 2 Natural gas sales 154 148 6 Operating costs and expenses: Oil and natural gas production 130 133 (3) Gathering, processing and transportation 11 - 11 Net income $ 835 $ 835 $ - Oil Contracts. The majority of the Company’s oil marketing contracts transfer physical custody and title at or near the wellhead, which is generally when control of the oil has been transferred to the purchaser. The majority of the oil produced is sold under contracts u sing market-based pricing, which price is then adjusted for differentials based upon delivery location and oil quality. To the extent the differentials are incurred after the transfer of control of the oil, the differentials are included in o il sales o n th e statement s of operations as they represent part of the transaction price of the contract. If the differentials, or other related costs, are incurred prior to the transfer of control of the oil, those costs are included in g athering, processing and transp ortation o n the Company’s consolidated statement s of operations as they represent payment for services performed outside of the contract with the customer. Natural Gas Contracts. The majority of the Company’s natural gas is sold at the lease location, wh ich is generally when control of the natural gas has been transferred to the purchaser. The natural gas is sold under (i) percent age of proceeds processing contr acts, (ii) fee-based contracts or ( iii) a hybrid of percentage of proceeds and fee-based contra cts. Under these contracts, the purchaser gathers the natural gas in the field where it is produced and transports it via pipeline to natural gas processing plants where natural gas liquid products are extracted. The natural gas liquid products and remaini ng residue gas are then sold by the purchaser. Under the percentage of proceeds and hybrid percentage of proceeds and fee-based contracts, the Company receives a percentage of the value for the extracted liquids and the residue gas. Under the fee - based co ntracts, the Company receives natural gas liquids and residue gas value, less the fee component, or is invoiced the fee component. To the extent control of the natural gas transfers upstream of the transportation and processing activities, revenue is recog nized as the net amount r eceived from the purchaser. To the extent that control transfers downstream of those costs, revenue is recognized on a gross basis , and the related costs are classified in g athering, processing and transportation o n the Company’s c onsolidated statement s of operations. The Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations under its contracts with customers as it applies the practical exemption in accordance with ASC 606. Th e exemption , as described in ASC 60 6-10-50-14(a), applies to variable consideration that is recognized as control of the product is transferred to the customer. Since each unit of product represents a separate performance obligation, future volumes are wholly unsatisfied and disclosure of t he transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations is not required. General and administrative expense. The Company receives fees for the operation of jointly-owned oil and natural gas properties during the drilling and production phases and records such reimbursements as redu ctions to general and administrative expense. Such fees totaled approximate ly $ 4 million for each of the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 . New accounting pronouncements issued but not yet adopted. In Februar y 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842) ” (“ASU 2016-02”), which supersedes current lease guidance. The new lease standard requires all leases with a term greater than one year to be recognized on the balance sheet while maintaining substantially similar classifications for financ ing and operating leases. Lease expense recognition on the consol idated statements of operations will be effectively unchanged. This guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 , and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not plan to early adopt the standard. The Company enters in to lease agreements to support its operations. These agreements are for leases on assets such as office space, vehicles, field services , well equipment and drilling rigs. The Company ha s substantially completed the process of reviewing and determining t he contracts to which this new guidance applies . The Company is currently enhancing its accounting system in order to track and calculate additional information necessary for adoption of this standard. The Company believes this new guidance will have a mod erate impact on its consolidated balance sheet s due to the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities that are not recognized under currently applicable guidance . In January 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-01, “Land Easement Practical Ex pedie nt for Transition to Topic 842,” which provides an optional practical expedient to not evaluate land easements that exist ed or expired before the adoption of ASU 2016-02 and that were not previously accounted for as leases under the original “Leases ( Topic 840 )” accounting standard (“Topic 840”) . The Company enters into land easements on a routine basis as part of its ongoing operations and has many such agreements currently in place; however, the Company does not currently account for any land easemen ts under Topic 840. As this guidance serves as an amendment to ASU 2016-02, t he Company will elect this practical expedient , which becomes effective upon the date of adoption of ASU 2016-02 . After the adoption of ASU 2016-02 , the Company will assess any ne w land easements to determine whether the arrangement should be accounted for as a lease. In Jun e 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments–Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which replaces the current “incurred loss” methodology for recognizing credit losses with an “expected loss” methodology. This new methodolog y requires that a financial asset measured at amortized cost be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. This standard is intended to provide more timely decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments. Th is guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and early adoption is allowed as early as fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company does not believe this new guidance will have a material impact on its consoli dated financial statements. |

Disclosure Exploratory Well Costs Capitalized Exploratory Well Activity [Abstract] | |
Exploratory well costs | Note 3 . Exploratory well costs The Company capitalizes exploratory well costs until a determination is made that the well has either found proved reserves or that it is impaired. After an exploratory well has been completed and found oil and natural gas reserves, a determination may be pending as to whether the oil and natural gas reserves can be classified as proved. In those circumstances, the Company continues to capitalize the well or project costs pending the determination of proved stat us if (i) the well has found a sufficient quantity of reserves to justify its completion as a producing well and (ii) the Company is making sufficient progress assessing the reserves and the economic and operating viability of the project. The capitalized exploratory well costs are carried in unproved oil and natural gas properties . See Note 16 for the proved and unproved components of oil and natural gas properties. If the exploratory well is determined to be impaired, the well costs are charged to e xploration and abandonments expense in the consolidated statements of operations. The following table reflects the Company’s net capitalized exploratory well activity during the three months ended March 31, 2018 : Three Months Ended (in millions) March 31, 2018 Beginning capitalized exploratory well costs $ 182 Additions to exploratory well costs pending the determination of proved reserves 163 Reclassifications due to determination of proved reserves (76) Disposition of wells (16) Ending capitalized exploratory well costs $ 253 The following table provides an aging at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 of capitalized exploratory well costs based on the date drilling was completed: March 31, December 31, (in millions, except number of projects) 2018 2017 Capitalized exploratory well costs that have been capitalized for a period of one year or less $ 239 $ 180 Capitalized exploratory well costs that have been capitalized for a period greater than one year 14 2 Total capitalized exploratory well costs $ 253 $ 182 Number of projects with exploratory well costs that have been capitalized for a period greater than one year 2 2 Northern Delaware Basin project . At March 31, 2018 , the Company had approximately $ 12 million of suspended well costs greater than one year recorded for a well drilled in the first quarter of 2017. This well is part of a multi-well pad project. This well was completed during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and began economically producing subsequent to March 31, 2018 . |

RSP Permian Acquisition [Abstract] | |
RSP Permian Acquisition | Note 4 . RSP Acquisition On March 27 , 2018, the Company and RSP Permia n, Inc. (“RSP”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Acquisition Agreement”) under which the Company will acquire RSP through an all-stock transaction (the “RSP Acquisition”). T he Company expects the RSP Acquisition to be completed during the t hird quarter of 2018, subject to the satisfaction of certain regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions , and wil l account for the RSP Acquisition as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting . If the RSP Acquisition is completed, RSP shareholders will automatically receive 0.320 of a share of the Company’s common stock in exchange for one sh are of RSP common stock . This exchange ratio is fixed and will not be adjusted for changes in the Company’s or RSP’s stock price. The Company estimates that it will issue up to approximately 51 million shares in connection with the RSP Acquisition. The Ac quisition Agreement also provides the Company certain termination rights under which it may exercise and effectively terminate the Acquisition Agreement. Should certain unlikely events occur under the specified circumstances outlined in the Acquisition Agr eement, the Company will be required to pay RSP a termination fee of $350 million. |

Acquisitions, divestitures and nonmonetary transactions | Note 5 . Acquisitions, divestitures and nonmonetary transactions During the three months ended March 31, 2018 , the Company entered into the following transactions: February 2018 acquisition and divestiture. In February 2018, the Company closed on an acquisition treated as a business combination where it received producing wells with approximately 5 M B oepd along with approximately 21,000 net acres, primarily located in the Midland Basin. As consideration for the non-cash acquisition, the C ompany divested of approximately 34,000 net acres, primarily comprised of approximately 32,000 net acres in the N orthern Delaware Basin, with current production of 3 MBoepd. The business acquired was valued at approximately $755 million as compared to the historical book value of the divested assets of approximately $180 million, which resulted in a preliminary non-cash gain of approximately $575 million, subject to customary post-closing adjustments. The approximately $7 5 5 million fair value of assets acquired comprised of approximately $245 million of proved properties, approximately $480 million of unproved properties and approximately $30 million of other assets. The fair value of the assets received in the business combination approximated the fair value of assets disposed. Southern Delaware B asin divestitures. In January 2018, the Company closed on two asset sales transactions of certain non-core assets in Reeves and Ward Counties with combined preliminar y proceeds of approximately $280 million, subject to customary post-closing adjustments. After direct transaction costs, the Company recorded a pre-tax gain of approximately $134 million, which is included in g ain on disposition of assets, net on its consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 . The assets divested included proved and unproved oil and natural gas properties on approximately 20,000 net acres. These divestitures completed a transaction structured as a reverse like-kind exchange (“Reverse 1031 Exchange”) in accordance with Section 1031 of the Internal Re venue Code of 1986, as amended, that the Company entered into concurrent with a July 2017 acquisition in the Midland Basin. In connection with the Reverse 1031 Exchange, the Company assigned the ownership of the oil and natural gas prope rties acquired to a VIE formed by an exchange accommodation titleholder. The Company operated the properties pursuant to a management agreement with the VIE. At December 31, 2017 and prior to the completion of the reverse like-kind exchange in January 2018 , the Company was determined to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE, as the Company had the ability to control the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. Upon completion of the Reverse 1031 Exchange in January 2018 , t he assets and liabilities attributable to the acquisition that were held by the VIE were conveyed to the Company, and the VIE structure was dissolved . Nonmonetary transactions. During the three months ended March 31, 201 8 , the Company completed multiple nonmonetary transactions.

Disclosure Fair Value Narrative [Abstract] | |
Disclosures about fair value measurements | Note 7 . Disclosures about fair value measurements The Company uses a valuation framework based upon inputs that market participants use in pricing an asset or liability, which are classified into two categories: observable inputs and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs represent market data obtained from independent sources, whereas unobservable inputs reflect a company’s own market assumptions, which are used if observable inputs are not reasonably available without undue cost and effort. These two types of inputs are further prioritized into the following fair value input hierarchy: Level 1 : Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. The Company considers active markets to be those in which transactions for the assets or liabilities occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 2 : Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. This category includes those derivative instruments that the Company values using observable market data. Substantially all of these inputs are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the derivative instrument, can be derived from observable data, or supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace. Level 2 instruments primarily include non-ex change traded derivatives such as over-the-counter commodity price swaps, basis swaps, collars and floors, investments and interest rate swaps. The Company’s valuation models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various inputs including: (i ) quoted forward prices f or commodities, (ii) time value, (iii) current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments and (iv) volatility factors, as well as other relevant economic measures. Level 3 : Prices or valuation models that requir e inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and less observable from objective sources ( i.e. , supported by little or no market activity). The Company’s valuation models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various input s including: (i) quoted forward prices for commodities, (ii) time value, (iii) volatility factors and (iv) current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value The following table presents the carrying amounts and fair values of the Company’s financial instruments at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 : March 31, 2018 December 31, 2017 Carrying Fair Carrying Fair (in millions) Value Value Value Value Assets: Derivative instruments $ 25 $ 25 $ - $ - Liabilities: Derivative instruments $ 327 $ 327 $ 379 $ 379 Credit facility $ - $ - $ 322 $ 322 $600 million 4.375% senior notes due 2025 (a) $ 593 $ 604 $ 593 $ 624 $1,000 million 3.75% senior notes due 2027 (a) $ 988 $ 971 $ 987 $ 1,012 $800 million 4.875% senior notes due 2047 (a) $ 789 $ 838 $ 789 $ 874 (a) The carrying value includes associated deferred loan costs and any discount. Credit facility. The carrying amount of the Company’s credit facility, as amended and restated (the “Credit Facility”), approximates its fair value, as the applicable interest rates are variable and reflective of market rates. Senior notes. The fair values of the Company’s senior notes are based on quoted market prices. The debt securities are not actively traded and, therefore, are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Other financial assets and liabilities . The Company has ot her financial instruments consisting primarily of receivables, payables and other current assets and liabilities. The carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments. Derivative instruments. The fair value of the Company’s derivative instruments is estimated by management considering various factors, including closing exchange and over-the-counter quotations and the time value of the underlying commitments. Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect th e valuation of the fair value of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. The following table s summarize (i) the valuation of each of the Company’s financial instruments by required fair value hierarchy levels and (ii) the gross fair value by the appropriate balance sheet classification, even when the derivative instruments are subject to netting arrangements and qualify for net presentation in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 . The Company nets the fair value of derivative instruments by counterparty in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

At March 31, 2018 , the Company’s primary concentrations of credit risk are the risk of collecting accounts receivable and the risk of counterparties’ failure to perform under derivative obligations. The Company has entered into International Swap Dealers Association Master Agreements (“ISDA Agreements”) with each of its derivative counterparties. The terms of the ISDA Agreements provide the Company and the co unterparties with rights of set- off upon the occurrence of defined acts of default by either the Company or a counterparty to a derivative, whereby the party not in default may set off all derivative liabilities owed to the defaulting party against all derivative asset receivables from the defaulting party.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Derivative financial instruments | Note 8 . Derivative financial instruments The Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to commodity price fluctuations. Commodity derivative instruments are used to (i) reduce the effect of the volatility of price changes on the oil and natural gas the Company produces and sells, (ii) support the Company’s capital budget and expenditure plans and (iii) support the economics associated with acquisitions. The Company does not enter into derivative financial instrument s for speculative or trading purposes. The Company also enters into fixed-price forward physical power purchase contracts to manage the volatility of the price of power needed for ongoing operations. The Company may also enter into physical delivery contra cts to effectively provide commodity price hedges. Because these physical contracts are not expected to be net cash settled, the Company has elected normal purchase or normal sale treatment and such contracts are thus recorded at cost. T he Company does not designate its derivative instruments to qualify for hedge accounting. Accordingly, the Company reflects changes in the fair value of its derivative instruments in its consolidated statements of operations as they occur. The following table summarizes the amounts reported in earnings related to the commodity derivative i nstruments for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 : Three Months Ended March 31, (in millions) 2018 2017 Gain (loss) on derivatives: Oil derivatives $ (33) $ 266 Natural gas derivatives (2) 20 Total $ (35) $ 286 The following table represents the Company’s net cash receipts from (payments on) derivatives for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017: Three Months Ended March 31, (in millions) 2018 2017 Net cash receipts from (payments on) derivatives: Oil derivatives $ (113) $ 31 Natural gas derivatives 1 (3) Total $ (112) $ 28 Commodity derivative contracts at March 31, 2018 .

Commitments and contingencies | Note 10 . Commitments and contingencies Legal actions . The Company is a party to proceedings and clai ms incidental to its business. While many of these matters involve inherent uncertainty, the Company believes that the amount of the liability, if any, ultimately incurred with respect to any such proceedings or claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position as a whole or on its liquidity, capital resources or future results of operations. The Compa ny will continue to evaluate proceedings and claims involving the Company on a regular basis and will establish and adjust any reserves as appropriate to reflect its assessment of the then current status of the matters. Severance tax, royalty and joint in terest audits . The Company is subject to routine severance, royalty and joint interest audits from regulatory bodies and non-operators and makes accruals as necessary for estimated exposure when deemed probable and estimable. Additionally, the Company is subject to various possible contingencies that arise primarily from interpretations affecting the oil and natural gas industry. Such contingencies include differing interpretations as to the prices at which oil and natural gas sales may be made, the prices at which royalty owners may be paid for production from their leases, allowable costs under joint interest arrangements and other matters. Although the Company beli eve s that it has estimated its exposure with respect to the various laws and regulations, administrative rulings and interpretations thereof, adjustments could be required as new interpretations and regulations are issued. C ommitments. The Company periodically enters into contractual arrangements under which the Company is committed to expend funds . These contractual arrangements r elate to purchase agreements the Company has entered into including drilling commitments , water commitment agreements, through put volume delivery commitments, fixed and variable power commitments , sand commitment agreements, fixed asset commitments and maintenance commitments .

Income taxes | Note 11 . Income taxes The Company’s provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 is based on the estimated annual effective tax rate plus discrete items. The effective income tax rate s w ere 23 percent and 36 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. The difference between the Company’s effective tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 is primarily due to (i) the reduc tion of the U . S . federal statutory corporate income tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent, (ii) the impact of changes in non-deductible e xpenses and (iii) state income taxes, ne t of federal income tax benefits . The Company recorded a disc rete income tax benefit related to stock-based awards of approximately $2 million and $7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively. On December 22, 2017, the President of the United States signed into law the “Tax Cuts and Job s Act” (“TCJA”) , which enacted significant changes to federal income tax laws, including a decrease in the federal corporate income tax rat e from 35 percent to 21 percent, which was effective January 1, 2018 . In accordance wit h Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, “Income Tax Accounting Implicatio ns of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ” (“SAB 118”) , the Company recorded, based on reasonable est imates, a $398 million decrease to its income tax provision at December 31, 2017.

Earnings Per Share, Basic and Diluted, Other Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Earnings per share | Note 13 . Earnings per share The Company uses the two-class method of calculating earnings per share because certain of the Company’s unvested share-based awards qualify as participating securities. The Company’s basic earnings per share attributable to common stockholders is computed as (i) net income (loss) as reported, (ii) less participating basic earnings (iii) divided by weighted average basic common shares outstanding. The Company’s diluted earnings per share attributable to common stockholders is computed as (i) basic earnings attributable to common stockholders, (ii) plus reallocation of participating earnings (iii) divided by weighted average diluted common shares outstanding. The following table reconciles the Company’s earnings from operations and earnings attributable to common stockholders to the basic and diluted earnings used to determine the Company’s earnings per share amounts for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 , respectively, under th e two-class method: Three Months Ended March 31, (in millions) 2018 2017 Net income as reported $ 835 $ 650 Participating basic earnings (a) (6) (5) Basic earnings attributable to common stockholders 829 645 Reallocation of participating earnings - - Diluted earnings attributable to common stockholders $ 829 $ 645 (a) Unvested restricted stock awards represent participating securities because they participate in nonforfeitable dividends or distributions with the common equity holders of the Company. Participating earnings represent the distributed earnings of the Company attributable to the participating securities. Unvested restricted stock awards do not participate in undistributed net losses as they are not contractually obligated to do so. The following table is a reconciliation of the basic weighted average common shares outstanding to diluted weighted average common shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 : Three Months Ended March 31, (in thousands) 2018 2017 Weighted average common shares outstanding: Basic 147,925 146,838 Dilutive common stock options - 12 Dilutive performance units 537 701 Diluted 148,462 147,551 The following table is a summary of the performance units that were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share, as inclusion of these items would be antidilutive: Three Months Ended March 31, (in thousands) 2018 2017 Number of antidilutive units: Antidilutive performance units - 108 Performance unit awards. The number of shares of common stock that will ultimately be issued for performance units will be determined by a combination of ( i ) comparing the Company’s total shareholder return relative to the total shareholder return of a predetermined group of peer companies at the end of the performance period and (ii) the Company’s absolute total shareholder return at the end of the performance period. The performance period is 36 months. The actual payout of shares will be between zero and 300 percent . |

Subsidiary guarantors At March 31, 2018 , certain of the Company’s 100 percent owned subsidiaries have fully and unconditionally guaranteed the Company’s senior notes. The indentures governing the Company’s senior notes provide that the guarantees of its subsidiary guarantors will be released in certain cus tomary circumstances including (i) in connection with any sale, exchange or other disposition, whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise, of the capital stock of that guarantor to a person that is not the Company or a restricted subsidiary of the Compa ny, such that, after giving effect to such transaction, such guarantor would no longer constitute a subsidiary of the Company, (ii) in connection with any sale, exchange or other disposition (other than a lease) of all or substantially all of the assets of that guarantor to a person that is not the Company or a restricted subsidiary of the Company, (iii) upon the merger of a guarantor into the Company or any other guarantor or the liquidation or dissolution of a guarantor, (iv) if the Company designates any restricted subsidiary that is a guarantor to be an unrestricted subsidiary in accordance with the indenture, (v) upon legal defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of the indenture and (vi) upon written notice of such release or discharge by the Company to the trustee following the release or discharge of all guarantees by such guarantor of any indebtedness that resulted in the creation of such guarantee, except a discharge or release by or as a result of payment under such guarantee. See Note 9 for a summary of the Company’s senior notes. In accordance with practices accepted by the SEC, the Company has prepared condensed consolidating financial statements in order to quantify the assets, results of operations and cash flows of such subsidiaries as subsidiary guarantors. In addition, one of the Company’s subsidiaries does not guarantee the Company’s senior notes and is included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. This entity is a 100 percent owned subsidiary that was recently acquired, and is referred to as a “Subsidiary Non-Guarantor” in the tables below . An additional entity did not guarantee the Company’s senior notes at December 31, 2017 . This entity wa s a VIE that was formed to effectuate a tax-free exchange of assets .

Summary of significant accoun24
Summary of significant accounting policies (Policies) | 3 Months Ended |
Mar. 31, 2018 | |
Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Principles of consolidation | Principles of consolidation. The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the Company and its 100 percent owned subsidiaries. The consolidated financial statements also included the accounts of a variable interest entity (“VIE”) where the Company was the primary beneficiary of the arrangements until the VIE structure dissolved. See Note 5 for additional information regarding the circumstances surro unding the VIE. The Company consolidates the financial statements of these entities. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. |
Reclassifications | Reclassifications. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2018 presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on net income (loss), total stockholders’ equity or total cash flows. |
Use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements | Use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements. Preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accept ed accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial stat ements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Depletion of oil and natural gas properties is determined using estimates of proved oil and natural gas reserves. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in the estimation of quantities of proved reserves and in the projection of future rates of production and the timing of development expenditures. Similarly, evaluations for impairment of proved and unproved oil and nat ural gas properties are subject to numerous uncertainties including, among others, estimates of future recoverable reserves, commodity price outlooks and prevailing market rates of other sources of income and costs. Other significant estimates include, but are not limited to, asset retirement obligations, fair value of stock-based compensation, fair value of business combinations, fair value of nonmonetary transactions, fair value of derivative financial instruments and income taxes. |
Interim financial statements | Interim financial stat ements. The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have not been audited by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, except that the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2017 is derived from audited consolidated fina ncial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s consolidated financial statements. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. In preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements, management has made certain estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and disclosures of contingencies. Actual results may differ from th ose estimates. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of annual results. Certain disclosures have been condensed in or omitted from these consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, these condensed notes to the consolidated fin ancial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 . |
Cash equivalents | Cash equivalents. The Company considers all cash on hand, deposi tory accounts held by banks, money market accounts and investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are held in financial institutions in amounts that may exceed the insurance limits of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. However, management believes that the Company’s counterparty risks are minimal based on the reputation and history of the institutions selected. |
Equity method investments | Equity method investments. The Company accounts for its equity method investments under the equity method of accounting and includes the investment balance in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Gains and losses incurred from the Company’s equity investments are recorded in o ther income on the con solidated statements of operations. The Company owns a 23.75 perce nt membership interest in Oryx Southern Delaware Holdings, LLC (“Oryx”), an entity that operates a crude oil gathering and transportation system in the Southern Delaware Basin. During the three months ended March 31, 2018 , Oryx obtained a term loan of $800 million. The proceeds were used in part to fund a cash distribution to its equity holders, of which the Company received a distribution of approximately $157 million. Of this amount, a pproximately $54 million fully offset the Company’s net investment in Oryx. The remaining distribution of approximately $103 million was recorded in other income on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 since the lenders to the term loan do not have recourse against the Company , and the Company has no contractual obligation to repay the distribution . The Company’s net investment in Oryx was approximately $ 49 million at December 31, 2017 . During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 , the Company recorded income of approximately $ 5 million and $ 1 million, respectively. In February 2017, the Company closed on the divestiture of its 50 percent membership interest in a midstream joint venture, Alpha Crude Connector, LLC (“ACC”), that constructed a crude oil gathering and transportation system in the Northern Delaware Basin. See Note 5 for additional information regarding the disposition of ACC. |
Revenue recognition | Revenue recognition . On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC ”) Topic 606 , “Revenue from Contrac ts with Customers,” (“ ASC 606 ”) using the modified retrospective approach, which only applies to contracts that were not completed as of the date of initial application. The adoption did not require an adjustment to opening retained earnings for the cumula tive effect adjustment and does not have a material impact on the Company’s ong oing consolidated balance sheets, statements of operat ions, statement of stockholders’ equity, or statement s of cash flows. The C ompany recognizes revenues from the sales of o il and natural gas to its customers and presents them disaggregated on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. All revenues are recognized in the geographical region of the Permian Basin. P rior to the adoption of ASC 606, the Company recorded oil and natural gas revenues at the time of physical transfer of such products to the purchaser, which for the Company is primarily at the wellhead. The Company followed the sales method of accounting for oil and natural gas sales, recognizing revenues bas ed on the Company’s actual proceeds from the oil and natural gas sold to purchasers. The Company enters into contracts with customers to sell its oil and natural gas production. Revenue on these contracts is recognized in accordance with the five-step rev enue recognition model prescribed in ASC 606 . Specifically, revenue is recognized when the Company’s performance obligations under these contracts are satisfied, which generally occurs with the transfer of control of the oil and natural gas to the purchase r. Control is generally considered transfe rred when the following criteria are met: (i) transfer of physical custody, (ii) transfer of title, (iii) transfer of risk of loss and (iv) relinquishment of any repurchase rights or other similar rights. Given the nature of the products sold, reve nue is recognized at a point in time based on the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in accordance with the price specified in the contract. Consideration under the oil and natural gas marketing contrac ts is typically received from the purchaser one to two months after production. At March 31, 2018 , the Company had receivables related to contracts with customers of $ 392 million. The following table shows the impact of the adoption of ASC 606 on the Company’s current period results as compared to the previous revenue recognition standard, ASC Topic 605, “Revenue recognition ” (“ASC 605”): Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 (in millions) Under ASC 606 Under ASC 605 Increase (Decrease) Operating revenues: Oil sales $ 793 $ 791 $ 2 Natural gas sales 154 148 6 Operating costs and expenses: Oil and natural gas production 130 133 (3) Gathering, processing and transportation 11 - 11 Net income $ 835 $ 835 $ - Oil Contracts. The majority of the Company’s oil marketing contracts transfer physical custody and title at or near the wellhead, which is generally when control of the oil has been transferred to the purchaser. The majority of the oil produced is sold under contracts u sing market-based pricing, which price is then adjusted for differentials based upon delivery location and oil quality. To the extent the differentials are incurred after the transfer of control of the oil, the differentials are included in o il sales o n th e statement s of operations as they represent part of the transaction price of the contract. If the differentials, or other related costs, are incurred prior to the transfer of control of the oil, those costs are included in g athering, processing and transp ortation o n the Company’s consolidated statement s of operations as they represent payment for services performed outside of the contract with the customer. Natural Gas Contracts. The majority of the Company’s natural gas is sold at the lease location, wh ich is generally when control of the natural gas has been transferred to the purchaser. The natural gas is sold under (i) percent age of proceeds processing contr acts, (ii) fee-based contracts or ( iii) a hybrid of percentage of proceeds and fee-based contra cts. Under these contracts, the purchaser gathers the natural gas in the field where it is produced and transports it via pipeline to natural gas processing plants where natural gas liquid products are extracted. The natural gas liquid products and remaini ng residue gas are then sold by the purchaser. Under the percentage of proceeds and hybrid percentage of proceeds and fee-based contracts, the Company receives a percentage of the value for the extracted liquids and the residue gas. Under the fee - based co ntracts, the Company receives natural gas liquids and residue gas value, less the fee component, or is invoiced the fee component. To the extent control of the natural gas transfers upstream of the transportation and processing activities, revenue is recog nized as the net amount r eceived from the purchaser. To the extent that control transfers downstream of those costs, revenue is recognized on a gross basis , and the related costs are classified in g athering, processing and transportation o n the Company’s c onsolidated statement s of operations. The Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations under its contracts with customers as it applies the practical exemption in accordance with ASC 606. Th e exemption , as described in ASC 60 6-10-50-14(a), applies to variable consideration that is recognized as control of the product is transferred to the customer. Since each unit of product represents a separate performance obligation, future volumes are wholly unsatisfied and disclosure of t he transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations is not required. |
General and administrative expense | General and administrative expense. The Company receives fees for the operation of jointly-owned oil and natural gas properties during the drilling and production phases and records such reimbursements as redu ctions to general and administrative expense. Such fees totaled approximate ly $ 4 million for each of the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 . |
Recent accounting pronouncements | New accounting pronouncements issued but not yet adopted. In Februar y 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842) ” (“ASU 2016-02”), which supersedes current lease guidance. The new lease standard requires all leases with a term greater than one year to be recognized on the balance sheet while maintaining substantially similar classifications for financ ing and operating leases. Lease expense recognition on the consol idated statements of operations will be effectively unchanged. This guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 , and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not plan to early adopt the standard. The Company enters in to lease agreements to support its operations. These agreements are for leases on assets such as office space, vehicles, field services , well equipment and drilling rigs. The Company ha s substantially completed the process of reviewing and determining t he contracts to which this new guidance applies . The Company is currently enhancing its accounting system in order to track and calculate additional information necessary for adoption of this standard. The Company believes this new guidance will have a mod erate impact on its consolidated balance sheet s due to the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities that are not recognized under currently applicable guidance . In January 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-01, “Land Easement Practical Ex pedie nt for Transition to Topic 842,” which provides an optional practical expedient to not evaluate land easements that exist ed or expired before the adoption of ASU 2016-02 and that were not previously accounted for as leases under the original “Leases ( Topic 840 )” accounting standard (“Topic 840”) . The Company enters into land easements on a routine basis as part of its ongoing operations and has many such agreements currently in place; however, the Company does not currently account for any land easemen ts under Topic 840. As this guidance serves as an amendment to ASU 2016-02, t he Company will elect this practical expedient , which becomes effective upon the date of adoption of ASU 2016-02 . After the adoption of ASU 2016-02 , the Company will assess any ne w land easements to determine whether the arrangement should be accounted for as a lease. In Jun e 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments–Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which replaces the current “incurred loss” methodology for recognizing credit losses with an “expected loss” methodology. This new methodolog y requires that a financial asset measured at amortized cost be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. This standard is intended to provide more timely decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments. Th is guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and early adoption is allowed as early as fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company does not believe this new guidance will have a material impact on its consoli dated financial statements. |
