Organization And Business | 1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS Organization We are a publicly-traded limited partnership formed in 2005 focused on the acquisition, development, and ownership of infrastructure critical to the transition of energy supply to lower carbon sources. We own natural gas gathering systems, pipelines, and processing facilities in South Texas and continue to pursue energy transition infrastructure opportunities. Our common units are currently listed on the NYSE American under the symbol “SNMP.” On February 26, 2021, in connection with our management team’s focus on expanding our business strategy to focus on the ongoing energy transition in the industries in which we operate, we changed our name to Evolve Transition Infrastructure LP and our general partner changed its name to Evolve Transition Infrastructure GP LLC. |

Basis Of Presentation And Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies | |
Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies | 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation Accounting policies used by us conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of us and our wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. We believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state the financial position, results of operations and cash flows with respect to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, which was filed with the SEC on March 16, 2021. Recent Accounting Pronouncements From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), which are adopted by us as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not effective, will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements upon adoption. In January 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-01 “Investments – Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815),” which clarifies the interaction among the accounting standards for equity securities, equity method investments and certain derivatives. This ASU is effective for public business entities for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This ASU modifies the impairment model to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the currently used incurred loss methodology, which will result in more timely recognition of losses. Additionally, in November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842): Effective Dates,” which changed the effective date for certain issuers to annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and earlier adoption is permitted. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of this guidance on our condensed consolidated financial statements. Other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not expected to have a material impact on the Partnership’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Use of Estimates The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates and the underlying assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported, disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities and reported amounts of revenues and expenses. The estimates that are particularly significant to our financial statements include estimates of our reserves of natural gas, NGLs and oil; future cash flows from oil and natural gas properties; depreciation, depletion and amortization; asset retirement obligations; certain revenues and operating expenses; fair values of derivatives; and fair values of assets and liabilities. As fair value is a market-based measurement, it is determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best judgment using the data available. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an on-going basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, which management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Such estimates and assumptions are adjusted when facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ from the estimates. Any changes in estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected in the financial statements in future periods. |

Discontinued Operations | 3. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS Palmetto Divestiture On April 30, 2021, but effective March 1, 2021 (the “Palmetto Effective Time”), SEP Holdings IV, LLC (“SEP IV”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Partnership entered into a purchase agreement (the “Palmetto PSA”) with Westhoff Palmetto LP (“Palmetto Buyer”), pursuant to which SEP IV sold to Palmetto Buyer specified wellbores and other associated assets located in Gonzales and Dewitt Counties, Texas (the “Palmetto Assets”) for a base purchase price of approximately $11.5 million, including the impact of final post-closing adjustments (the “Palmetto Divestiture”). Pursuant to the Palmetto PSA, other than a limited amount of retained obligations, Palmetto Buyer has agreed to assume all obligations relating to the Palmetto Assets that arose on or after the Palmetto Effective Time. The Palmetto PSA contains customary representations and warranties by SEP IV and Palmetto Buyer, and SEP IV and Palmetto Buyer have agreed to customary indemnities relating to breaches of representations, warranties and covenants and the payment of assumed and excluded obligations. The Palmetto Divestiture closed simultaneously with the execution of the Palmetto PSA and we recorded a gain of approximately $0.3 million on the sale. Maverick Divestitures On April 30, 2021, but effective March 1, 2021 (the “Maverick Effective Time”), SEP IV entered into a purchase agreement (the “Maverick PSA”) with Bayshore Energy TX LLC (“Maverick Buyer”), pursuant to which SEP IV sold to Maverick Buyer specified wellbores and other associated assets located in Zavala County, Texas (the “Maverick 1 Assets”) for a base purchase price of approximately $2.8 million, which remains subject to final post-closing adjustments expected in the fourth quarter of 2021 (the “Maverick 1 Divestiture”). Pursuant to the Maverick PSA, other than a limited amount of retained obligations, Maverick Buyer has agreed to assume all obligations relating to the Maverick 1 Assets that arose on or after the Maverick Effective Time. The Maverick PSA contains customary representations and warranties by SEP IV and Maverick Buyer, and SEP IV and Maverick Buyer agreed to customary indemnities relating to breaches of representations, warranties and covenants and the payment of assumed and excluded obligations. The Maverick 1 Divestiture closed simultaneously with the execution of the Maverick PSA. Also on April 30, 2021, SEP IV entered into a letter agreement with Maverick Buyer (the “Maverick Letter Agreement”) pursuant to which SEP IV agreed to sell additional other specified wellbores and other associated assets located in Zavala and Dimmit Counties, Texas (the “Maverick 2 Assets”) for a base purchase price of approximately $1.4 million, which remains subject to final post-closing adjustments expected in the fourth quarter of 2021 (the “Maverick 2 Divestiture”). The closing of the Maverick 2 Divestiture was conditioned upon SEP IV obtaining certain consents and complying with other preferential rights related to the Maverick 2 Assets. Following the entrance into the Maverick Letter Agreement, SEP IV complied with the preferential rights and obtained multiple consents related to the Maverick 2 Assets. SEP IV did not obtain one of the required consents and, as a result, the Maverick 2 Assets subject to such consent were removed from the Maverick 2 Assets included in the Maverick 2 Divestiture (the “Updated Maverick 2 Assets”) and the base purchase price was adjusted downward by approximately $31,000. On May 14, 2021, but effective as of the Maverick Effective Time, SEP IV and Maverick Buyer entered into a purchase agreement (the “Maverick 2 PSA”) pursuant to which SEP IV sold to Maverick Buyer the Updated Maverick 2 Assets. Pursuant to the Maverick 2 PSA, other than a limited amount of retained obligations, Maverick Buyer agreed to assume all obligations and liabilities related to the Updated Maverick 2 Assets that arose on or after the Maverick Effective Time. The Maverick 2 PSA contains customary representations and warranties by SEP IV and Maverick Buyer, and SEP IV and Maverick Buyer agreed to customary indemnities relating to breaches of representations, warranties and covenants and the payment of assumed and excluded obligations. The Maverick 2 Divestiture closed simultaneously with the execution of the Maverick 2 PSA. On August 13, 2021, but effect as of the Maverick Effective Time, SEP IV and Maverick Buyer entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “Maverick 3 PSA”) pursuant to which SEP IV sold to Maverick Buyer specified wellbores and other associated assets located in Zavala County, Texas, including the remaining Maverick 2 Assets excluded from the original closing of the Maverick 2 Divestiture (the “Maverick 3 Assets”) for a base purchase price of approximately $31,000, which remains subject to final post-closing adjustments expected in the fourth quarter of 2021 (the “Maverick 3 Divestiture” and together with the Maverick 1 Divestiture and the Maverick 2 Divestiture, the “Maverick Divestitures”). Pursuant to the Maverick 3 PSA, other than a limited amount of retained obligations, Maverick Buyer agreed to assume all obligations and liabilities related to the Maverick 3 Assets that arose on or after the Maverick Effective Time. The Maverick 3 PSA contains customary representations and warranties by SEP IV and Maverick Buyer, and SEP IV and Maverick Buyer agreed to customary indemnities relating to breaches of representations, warranties and covenants and the payment of assumed and excluded obligations. The Maverick 3 Divestiture closed simultaneously with the execution of the Maverick 3 PSA. We recorded a net gain of approximately $0.2 million related to the Maverick Divestitures.

REVENUE RECOGNITION Revenue from Contracts with Customers We account for revenue from contracts with customers in accordance with ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” The unit of account in ASC 606 is a performance obligation, which is a promise in a contract to transfer to a customer either a distinct good or service (or bundle of goods or services) or a series of distinct goods or services provided over a period of time. ASC 606 requires that a contract’s transaction price, which is the amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer, is to be allocated to each performance obligation in the contract based on relative standalone selling prices and recognized as revenue when (point in time) or as (over time) the performance obligation is satisfied. Disaggregation of Revenue We recognized revenue of approximately $16.9 million and $35.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. We disaggregate revenue based on revenue and product type. In selecting the disaggregation categories, we considered a number of factors, including disclosures presented outside the financial statements, such as in our earnings release and investor presentations, information reviewed internally for evaluating performance, and other factors used by the Partnership or the users of its financial statements to evaluate performance or allocate resources. We have concluded that disaggregating revenue by revenue and product type appropriately depicts how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. The Firm Transportation Service Agreement, dated September 1, 2017, by and between Seco Pipeline, LLC and SN Catarina, LLC (the “Seco Pipeline Transportation Agreement”) is the only contract that we historically accounted for under ASC 606. The Seco Pipeline Transportation Agreement was terminated by Mesquite effective February 12, 2020. The Gathering Agreement is classified as an operating lease and is accounted for under ASC 842, “Leases” and is reported as gathering and transportation lease revenues in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. We account for income from our unconsolidated equity method investments as earnings from equity investments in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Earnings from these equity method investments are further discussed in Note 11 “Investments.” Performance Obligations Pursuant to the Seco Pipeline Transportation Agreement, we agreed to provide transportation services of certain quantities of natural gas from the receipt point to the delivery point. Each MMBtu of natural gas transported is distinct and the transportation services performed on each distinct molecule of product is substantially the same in nature. We applied the series guidance and treated these services as a single performance obligation satisfied over time using volumes delivered as the measure of progress. The Seco Pipeline Transportation Agreement required payment within 30 days following the calendar month of delivery. The Seco Pipeline Transportation Agreement contained variable consideration in the form of volume variability. As the distinct goods or services (rather than the series) are considered for the purpose of allocating variable consideration, we have taken the optional exception under ASC 606 which is available only for wholly unsatisfied performance obligations for which the criteria in ASC 606 have been met. Under this exception, neither estimation of variable consideration nor disclosure of the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations is required. Revenue is alternatively recognized in the period that control is transferred to the customer and the respective variable component of the total transaction price is resolved. For forms of variable consideration that are not associated with a specific volume (such as late payment fees) and thus do not meet allocation exception, estimation is required. These fees, however, are immaterial to our condensed consolidated financial statements and have a low probability of occurrence. As significant reversals of revenue due to this variability are not probable, no estimation is required. Contract Balances Under our sales contracts, we invoice customers after our performance obligations have been satisfied, at which point payment is unconditional. Accordingly, our contracts do not give rise to contract assets or liabilities under ASC 606. At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, our accounts receivables from contracts with customers were zero and approximately $1.9 million, respectively. |

Fair Value Measurements | |
Fair Value Measurements | 5. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Measurements of fair value of derivative instruments are classified according to the fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs to the valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories: Level 1: Level 2: Level 3: Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Management's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of the fair value of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. The following table summarizes the fair value of our assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2021 (in thousands): Fair Value Measurements at September 30, 2021 Active Markets for Observable Identical Assets Inputs Unobservable Inputs (Level 1) (Level 2) (Level 3) Fair Value Fair value of warrants Nuvve Holding Warrants $ — $ 160 $ — $ 160 Other liabilities Stonepeak Warrant — (11,654) — (11,654) Total $ — $ (11,494) $ — $ (11,494) The following table summarizes the fair value of our assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2020 (in thousands): Fair Value Measurements at December 31, 2020 Active Markets for Observable Identical Assets Inputs Unobservable Inputs (Level 1) (Level 2) (Level 3) Fair Value Other liabilities Stonepeak Warrant — (1,418) — (1,418) Total $ — $ (1,418) $ — $ (1,418) As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the estimated fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other current assets and current liabilities approximated their carrying value due to their short-term nature. Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis The Partnership follows the provisions of Topic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurement,” for nonfinancial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. The fair value measurements of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on inputs that are not observable in the market and therefore represent Level 3 inputs under the fair value hierarchy. We periodically review oil and natural gas properties and related equipment for impairment when facts and circumstances indicate that their carrying values may not be recoverable. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the Partnership’s asset retirement obligations is presented in Note 9 “Asset Retirement Obligation.” The following table summarizes the non-recurring fair value measurements of our production assets as of December 31, 2020 (in thousands): Fair Value Measurements at December 31, 2020 Active Markets for Observable Identical Assets Inputs Unobservable Inputs (Level 1) (Level 2) (Level 3) Impairment (a) $ — $ — $ 12,884 Total net assets $ — $ — $ 12,884 (a) During the year ended December 31, 2020, we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $23.4 million to impair our producing oil and natural gas properties and $0.9 million to impair the Seco Pipeline. The carrying values of the impaired properties were reduced to a fair value of approximately $12.9 million, estimated using inputs characteristic of a Level 3 fair value measurement. The fair values of oil and natural gas properties and related equipment were measured using valuation techniques that convert future cash flows to a single discounted amount. Significant inputs to the valuation of oil and natural gas properties and related equipment include estimates of: (i) reserves; (ii) future operating and development costs; (iii) future commodity prices; (iv) estimated future cash flows; (v) estimated throughput; and (vi) a market-based weighted average cost of capital rate of 15%. These inputs require significant judgments and estimates by the Partnership’s management at the time of the valuation and are the most sensitive and subject to change. Seco Pipeline The fair value of the Seco Pipeline was measured using probabilistic valuation techniques that convert future cash flows to a single discounted amount. Significant inputs to the valuation of the Seco Pipeline include estimates of: (i) future operating and development costs; (ii) estimated future cash flows; and (iii) a market-based weighted average cost of capital rate. These inputs require significant judgments and estimates by the Partnership’s management at the time of the valuation and are the most sensitive and subject to change. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The estimated fair value amounts of financial instruments have been determined using available market information and valuation methodologies described below. We prioritize the use of the highest level inputs available in determining fair value such that fair value measurements are determined using the highest and best use as determined by market participants and the assumptions that they would use in determining fair value.

Derivative And Financial Instruments | 6. DERIVATIVE AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS On May 17, 2021, the Partnership entered into a letter agreement (the “Levo Letter Agreement”) with Nuvve Holding Corp. (“Nuvve Holding”) and Stonepeak Rocket Holdings LP (“Stonepeak Rocket”), relating to the proposed formation of a joint venture, Levo Mobility LLC (“Levo” and such proposed joint venture, the “Levo JV”). In connection with the Levo Letter Agreement, on May 17, 2021, Nuvve Holding issued ten-year warrants to the Partnership as follows: (i) Series B Warrants to purchase 200,000 shares of Nuvve Holding’s common stock, at an exercise price of $10.00 per share, which are fully vested upon issuance, (ii) Series C warrants to purchase 100,000 shares of Nuvve Holding’s common stock, at an exercise price of $15.00 per share, which are vested as to 50% of the shares upon issuance and vest as to the remaining 50% when Levo has entered into contracts with third parties for $125 million in aggregate capital expenditures; (iii) Series D warrants to purchase 100,000 shares of Nuvve Holding’s common stock, at an exercise price of $20.00 per share, which are vested as to 50% of the shares upon issuance and vest as to the remaining 50% when Levo has entered into contracts with third parties for $250 million in aggregate capital expenditures; (iv) Series E warrants to purchase 100,000 shares of Nuvve Holding’s common stock, at an exercise price of $30.00 per share, which are vested as to 50% of the shares upon issuance and vest as to the remaining 50% when Levo has entered into contracts with third parties for $375 million in aggregate capital expenditures; and (v) Series F warrants to purchase 100,000 shares of Nuvve Holding’s common stock, at an exercise price of $40.00 per share, which are vested as to 50% of the shares upon issuance and vest as to the remaining 50% when Levo has entered into contracts with third parties for $500 million in aggregate capital expenditures (collectively the “Nuvve Holding Warrants”).The Nuvve Holding Warrants are accounted for in accordance with Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” and are recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value. Changes in the Nuvve Holding Warrants fair value are recognized in earnings and included in other income on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The following table sets forth a reconciliation of the changes in fair value of the Partnership’s Nuvve Holding Warrants for the periods indicated (in thousands): Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 Beginning fair value of warrants $ — Net gain (loss) on warrants 160 Ending fair value of warrants $ 160 To reduce the impact of fluctuations in oil and natural gas prices on our revenues, we historically entered into derivative contracts with respect to a portion of our projected oil and natural gas production through various transactions that fix or modify the future prices to be realized. We did not hedge any of our expected production volumes for 2021. Our historical hedging activities were intended to support oil and natural gas prices at targeted levels and to manage exposure to oil and natural gas price fluctuations. It was never our intention to enter into derivative contracts for speculative trading purposes. Under Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” all derivative instruments are recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value as either short-term or long-term assets or liabilities based on their anticipated settlement date. We will net derivative assets and liabilities for counterparties where we have a legal right of offset. Changes in the derivatives’ fair values are recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. We have not elected to designate any of our current derivative contracts as hedges; however, changes in the fair value of all of our derivative instruments are recognized in earnings and included in natural gas sales and oil sales in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. We do not have derivative contracts related to production in 2021 and beyond.

Debt | |
Debt | 7. DEBT Credit Agreement We have entered into a credit facility with Royal Bank of Canada, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the lenders party thereto, as amended through the date of the Twelfth Amendment to Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of August 20, 2021 (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides a quarterly amortizing term loan of $65.0 million (the “Term Loan”) and a maximum revolving credit amount of $5.0 million (the “Revolving Loan”). The Credit Agreement matures on September 30, 2023. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are secured by various mortgages of midstream properties that we own as well as various security and pledge agreements among us, certain of our subsidiaries and the administrative agent. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are available for limited direct investment in midstream properties, acquisitions, and working capital and general business purposes. The Credit Agreement has a sub-limit of up to $2.5 million which may be used for the issuance of letters of credit. As of September 30, 2021, we had approximately $54.7 million of debt outstanding, consisting of approximately $52.2 million under the Term Loan and approximately $2.5 million under the Revolving Loan. We are required to make mandatory amortizing payments of outstanding principal on the Term Loan of (i) $3.0 million per fiscal quarter commencing with the quarter ending December 31, 2021, and (ii) $2.0 million per fiscal quarter commencing with the quarter ending March 31, 2023. The maximum revolving credit amount is $5.0 million leaving us with approximately $2.5 million in unused borrowing capacity. There were no letters of credit outstanding under our Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2021. At our election, interest for borrowings under the Credit Agreement are determined by reference to (i) the LIBOR plus an applicable margin between 2.75% and 3.50% per annum based on net debt to EBITDA or (ii) a domestic bank rate (“ABR”) plus an applicable margin between 1.75% and 2.50% per annum based on net debt to EBITDA plus (iii) a commitment fee of 0.500% per annum based on the unutilized portion of the Revolving Loan. Interest on the borrowings for ABR loans and the commitment fee are generally payable quarterly. Interest on the borrowings for LIBOR loans are generally payable at the applicable maturity date. The Credit Agreement contains various covenants that limit, among other things, our ability to incur certain indebtedness, grant certain liens, merge or consolidate, sell all or substantially all of our assets, make certain loans, acquisitions, capital expenditures and investments, and pay distributions to unitholders. In addition, we are required to maintain the following financial covenants: ● current assets to current liabilities, excluding any current maturities of debt, of at least 1.0 to 1.0 at all times; and ● senior secured net debt to consolidated adjusted EBITDA for the last twelve months, as of the last day of any fiscal quarter, of not greater than 3.25 to 1.00. The Credit Agreement also includes customary events of default, including events of default relating to non-payment of principal, interest or fees, inaccuracy of representations and warranties when made or when deemed made, violation of covenants, cross-defaults, bankruptcy and insolvency events, certain unsatisfied judgments, loan documents not being valid and a change in control. A change in control is generally defined as the occurrence of one of the following events: (i) our existing general partner ceases to be our sole general partner or (ii) certain specified persons shall cease to own more than 50% of the equity interests of our general partner or shall cease to control our general partner. If an event of default occurs, the lenders will be able to accelerate the maturity of the Credit Agreement and exercise other rights and remedies. At September 30, 2021, we were in compliance with the financial covenants contained in the Credit Agreement. We monitor compliance on an ongoing basis. If we are unable to remain in compliance with the financial covenants contained in our Credit Agreement or maintain the required ratios discussed above, the lenders could call an event of default and accelerate the outstanding debt under the terms of the Credit Agreement, such that our outstanding debt could become then due and payable. We may request waivers of compliance from the violated financial covenants from the lenders, but there is no assurance that such waivers would be granted. We are required to make mandatory amortizing payments of the outstanding principal on the Term Loan, we expect these quarterly amortizing payments will be made from our operating cash flows and other capital resources. However, there can be no assurance that operations and other capital resources will provide cash in sufficient amounts to make these mandatory amortizing payments. Debt Issuance Costs As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, our unamortized debt issuance costs were approximately $0.7 million and $0.8 million, respectively. These costs are amortized to interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations over the life of our Credit Agreement. Amortization of debt issuance costs recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 was approximately $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively. Amortization of debt issuance costs recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 was approximately $0.8 million and $0.6 million, respectively. |

Asset Retirement Obligation | 9. ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATION We recognize the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation (“ARO”) in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. Each period, we accrete the ARO to its then present value. The associated asset retirement cost (“ARC”) is capitalized as part of the carrying amount of our oil and natural gas properties, equipment and facilities or gathering and transportation assets. Subsequently, the ARC is depreciated using the units-of-production method for production assets and the straight-line method for midstream assets. The AROs recorded by us relate to the plugging and abandonment of oil and natural gas wells and decommissioning of oil and natural gas gathering and other facilities. Inherent in the fair value calculation of AROs are numerous assumptions and judgments including the ultimate settlement amounts, inflation factors, credit adjusted discount rates, timing of settlement and changes in the legal, regulatory, environmental and political environments. To the extent future revisions to these assumptions result in adjustments to the recorded fair value of the existing ARO, a corresponding adjustment is made to the ARC capitalized as part of the oil and natural gas properties, equipment and facilities or gathering and transportation assets. The following table is a reconciliation of changes in ARO for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020 (in thousands): Nine Months Ended Year Ended September 30, 2021 December 31, 2020 Asset retirement obligation, beginning balance $ 4,313 $ 3,958 Accretion expense 287 355 Asset retirement obligation, ending balance $ 4,600 $ 4,313 Additional AROs increase the liability associated with new oil and natural gas wells and other facilities as these obligations are incurred. Abandonments of oil and natural gas wells and other facilities reduce the liability for AROs. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020, there were no significant expenditures for abandonments and there were no assets legally restricted for purposes of settling existing AROs. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, obligations were relieved as part of the Palmetto Divestiture and the Maverick Divestitures. |

Intangible Assets | 10. INTANGIBLE ASSETS Intangible assets are comprised of customer and marketing contracts. The intangible assets balance as of September 30, 2021 is related to the Gathering Agreement with Mesquite that was entered into as part of the acquisition of the Western Catarina gathering system. The Western Catarina gathering system (“Western Catarina Midstream”) is located on the western portion of Mesquite’s acreage position in Dimmit, La Salle and Webb counties, Texas (the western portion of such acreage, “Western Catarina”). Pursuant to the 15 -year agreement, Mesquite tenders all of its crude oil, natural gas and other hydrocarbon-based product volumes produced in the Western Catarina of the Eagle Ford Shale in Texas for processing and transportation through Western Catarina Midstream, with a right to tender additional volumes outside of the dedicated acreage. These intangible assets are being amortized using the straight-line method over the 15 -year life of the agreement. Amortization expense for each of the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 was approximately $10.1 million. These costs are amortized to depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. The following table is a reconciliation of changes in intangible assets (in thousands): September 30, December 31, 2021 2020 Beginning balance $ 131,786 $ 145,246 Amortization (10,093) (13,460) Ending balance $ 121,693 $ 131,786 |

Investments | 11. INVESTMENTS In July 2016, we completed a transaction pursuant to which we acquired from Mesquite a 50% interest in Carnero Gathering, LLC (“Carnero Gathering”), a joint venture that was 50% owned and operated by Targa Resources Corp. (NYSE: TRGP) (“Targa”), for an initial payment of approximately $37.0 million and the assumption of remaining capital commitments to Carnero Gathering, estimated at approximately $7.4 million as of the acquisition date (the “Carnero Gathering Transaction”). The fair value of the intangible asset for the contractual customer relationship related to Carnero Gathering was valued at approximately $13.0 million. This amount is being amortized over a contract term of 15 years and decreases earnings from equity investments in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. As part of the Carnero Gathering Transaction, we are required to pay Mesquite an earnout based on natural gas received above a threshold volume and tariff at designated delivery points from Mesquite and other producers. See Note 5 “Fair Value Measurements” for further discussion of the earnout derivative. In November 2016, we completed a transaction pursuant to which we acquired from Mesquite a 50% interest in Carnero Processing, LLC (“Carnero Processing”), a joint venture that was 50% owned and operated by Targa, for aggregate cash consideration of approximately $55.5 million and the assumption of remaining capital contribution commitments to Carnero Processing, estimated at approximately $24.5 million as of the date of acquisition. In May 2018, we executed a series of agreements with Targa and other parties pursuant to which, among other things: (1) the parties merged their respective 50% interests in Carnero Gathering and Carnero Processing (the “Carnero JV Transaction”) to form an expanded 50 / 50 joint venture in South Texas, within Carnero G&P, LLC (the “Carnero JV”), (2) Targa contributed 100% of the equity interest in the Silver Oak II Gas Processing Plant (“Silver Oak II”), located in Bee County, Texas, to the Carnero JV, which expands the processing capacity of the Carnero JV from 260 MMcf/d to 460 MMcf/d, (3) Targa contributed certain capacity in the 45 miles of high pressure natural gas gathering pipelines owned by Carnero Gathering that connect Western Catarina Midstream to nearby pipelines and the Raptor Gas Processing Facility (the “Carnero Gathering Line”) to the Carnero JV resulting in the Carnero JV owning all of the capacity in the Carnero Gathering Line, which has a design limit (without compression) of 400 MMcf/d, (4) the Carnero JV received a new dedication from Mesquite and its working interest partners of over 315,000 acres located in the Western Eagle Ford on Mesquite’s acreage in Dimmit, Webb, La Salle, Zavala and Maverick counties, Texas (such acreage is collectively referred to as Mesquite’s “Comanche Asset”) pursuant to a new long-term firm gas gathering and processing agreement. The agreement with Mesquite, which was approved by all of the unaffiliated Comanche Asset working interest partners, establishes commercial terms for the gathering of gas on the Carnero Gathering Line and processing at the Raptor Gas Processing Facility and Silver Oak II. Prior to execution of the agreement, volumes from the Comanche Asset were gathered and processed on an interruptible basis, with the processing capabilities of the Carnero JV limited by the capacity of the Raptor Gas Processing Facility. As a result of the Carnero JV Transaction, we now record our share of earnings and losses from the Carnero JV using the Hypothetical Liquidation at Book Value (“HLBV”) method of accounting. HLBV is a balance-sheet approach that calculates the amount we would have received if the Carnero JV were liquidated at book value at the end of each measurement period. The change in our allocated amount during the period is recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. In the event of liquidation of the Carnero JV, available proceeds are first distributed to any priority return and unpaid capital associated with Silver Oak II, and then to members in accordance with their capital accounts. As of September 30, 2021 the Partnership had paid approximately $124.4 million for its investment in the Carnero JV related to the initial payments and contributed capital. The Partnership has accounted for this investment using the equity method. Targa is the operator of the Carnero JV and has significant influence with respect to the normal day-to-day capital and operating decisions. We have included the investment balance in the equity investments caption on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. For the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Partnership recorded an insignificant amount of earnings in equity investments from the Carnero JV, which was offset by approximately $0.3 million related to the amortization of the contractual customer intangible asset. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Partnership recorded losses of approximately $0.5 million in equity investments from the Carnero JV, which was compounded by approximately $0.9 million related to the amortization of the contractual customer intangible asset. We have included these equity method earnings in the earnings from equity investments line within the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Cash distributions of approximately $11.9 million were received during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Summarized financial information of unconsolidated entities is as follows (in thousands): Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 2020 Sales $ 78,026 $ 55,578 Total expenses 74,662 44,965 Net income $ 3,364 $ 10,613 |

PARTNERS’ CAPITAL Outstanding Units As of September 30, 2021, we had 36,474,436 Class C Preferred Units outstanding and 96,465,219 common units outstanding which included 2,194,309 unvested restricted common units issued under the LTIP. Common Unit Issuances We entered into a letter agreement with SP Holdings providing that during the period beginning with the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2019 and continuing until the end of the fiscal quarter after the fiscal quarter in which we redeem all of our issued and outstanding Class C Preferred Units, SP Holdings agrees to delay receipt of its fees, not including reimbursement of costs, as a result, we have not issued any common units to SP Holdings in connection with providing services under the Shared Services Agreement for any quarter following the quarter ended June 30, 2019. As of September 30, 2021, the number of units to be issued under the Shared Services Agreement is 14,611,540. Class C Preferred Units On August 2, 2019, Stonepeak exchanged all of their current equity ownership for newly issued Class C Preferred Units and the Stonepeak Warrant in a private placement transaction (the “Exchange”). The holders of the Class C Preferred Units receive a quarterly distribution of 12.5% per annum payable in cash. To the extent that Available Cash (as defined in the Third Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Partnership (the “Amended Partnership Agreement”)) is insufficient to pay the distribution in cash, all or a portion of the distribution may be paid in Class C Preferred PIK Units. Commencing with the quarter ending March 31, 2022, the distribution rate will increase to 14% per annum. Distributions are to be paid on or about the last day of each of February, May, August and November following the end of each quarter and are charged to interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Beginning January 1, 2022, Adjusted Available Cash (as defined in the Amended Partnership Agreement) will be distributed to holders of the Class C Preferred Units to redeem a number of Class C Preferred Units to be determined based on the amount of Adjusted Available Cash. The Class C Preferred Units are accounted for as a current liability on our condensed consolidated balance sheet consisting of the following (in thousands): September 30, December 31, 2021 2020 Class C Preferred Units, beginning balance $ 345,205 $ 281,688 Accretion of discount 37,671 38,938 Distribution accrual — 24,579 Class C Preferred Units, ending balance $ 382,876 $ 345,205 The table below reflects the payment of distributions on Class C Preferred Units related to the periods indicated. Class C Preferred Date of Date of Date of Three Months Ended PIK Distribution Declaration Record Distribution December 31, 2019 1,039,314 February 13, 2020 February 28, 2020 February 20, 2020 March 31, 2020 1,071,793 April 29, 2020 May 20, 2020 May 29, 2020 June 30, 2020 1,105,286 July 31, 2020 August 20, 2020 August 31, 2020 On November 16, 2020, the Partnership and Stonepeak entered into the Stonepeak Letter Agreement wherein the parties agreed that the distribution on the Class C Preferred Units for the three months ended September 30, 2020 would be paid in common units instead of Class C Preferred PIK Units, cash or a combination thereof. The Stonepeak Letter Agreement also provides that Stonepeak will be able to elect to receive distributions on the Class C Preferred Units in common units for any quarter following the third quarter of 2020 by providing written notice to the Partnership no later than the last day of the calendar month following the end of such quarter. The table below reflects distributions on Class C Preferred Units which were elected to be paid in common units related to the periods indicated. Class C Preferred Date of Three Months Ended Distribution of Common Units Distribution September 30, 2020 22,274,869 February 1, 2021 December 31, 2020 12,445,491 February 25, 2021 March 31, 2021 13,763,249 May 20, 2021 June 30, 2021 8,012,850 August 20, 2021 Stonepeak Warrant On August 2, 2019 , in connection with the Exchange, the Partnership issued to Stonepeak the Stonepeak Warrant, which entitles the holder to receive junior securities representing ten percent of junior securities deemed outstanding when exercised. The Stonepeak Warrant expires on the later of August 2, 2026 or 30 days following the full redemption of the Class C Preferred Units. There is no strike price associated with the exercise of the Stonepeak Warrant. The Stonepeak Warrant is accounted for as a liability in accordance with ASC 480 and is presented within other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Changes in the fair value of the Stonepeak Warrant are charged to interest expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Earnings per Unit Net income (loss) per common unit for the period is based on any distributions that are made to the unitholders (common units) plus an allocation of undistributed net income (loss) based on provisions of the Amended Partnership Agreement, divided by the weighted average number of common units outstanding. The two-class method dictates that net income (loss) for a period be reduced by the amount of distributions and that any residual amount representing undistributed net income (loss) be allocated to common unitholders and other participating unitholders to the extent that each unit may share in net income (loss) as if all of the net income for the period had been distributed in accordance with the Amended Partnership Agreement. Unit-based awards granted but unvested are eligible to receive distributions. The underlying unvested restricted unit awards are considered participating securities for purposes of determining net income (loss) per unit. Undistributed income is allocated to participating securities based on the proportional relationship of the weighted average number of common units and unit-based awards outstanding. Undistributed losses (including those resulting from distributions in excess of net income) are allocated to common units based on provisions of the Amended Partnership Agreement. Undistributed losses are not allocated to unvested restricted unit awards as they do not participate in net losses. Distributions declared and paid in the period are treated as distributed earnings in the computation of earnings per common unit even though cash distributions are not necessarily derived from current or prior period earnings. The Partnership’s general partner does not have an economic interest in the Partnership and, therefore, does not participate in the Partnership’s net income. |

Variable Interest Entities | 16. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES The Partnership’s investment in the Carnero JV represents a variable interest entity (“VIE”) that could expose the Partnership to losses. The amount of losses the Partnership could be exposed to from the Carnero JV is limited to the capital investment of approximately $76.5 million. As of September 30, 2021, the Partnership had invested approximately $124.4 million in the Carnero JV and no debt has been incurred by the Carnero JV. We have included this VIE in other assets, equity investments on our condensed consolidated balance sheet. Below is a tabular comparison of the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities of the VIE and the Partnership’s maximum exposure to loss as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 (in thousands): September 30, December 31, 2021 2020 Acquisitions, earnout and capital investments $ 128,483 $ 128,251 Earnings in equity investments 29,049 30,455 Distributions received (81,017) (69,071) Maximum exposure to loss $ 76,515 $ 89,635 |

Subsequent Events | 17. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS NYSE American Update On October 4, 2021, the NYSE American informed us that we regained compliance with the NYSE American Company Guide (the “Company Guide”) by meeting the requirements of the $50 million market capitalization exemption from the stockholders’ equity requirement in Section 1003(a) of the Company Guide. At the opening of trading on October 5, 2021, the below compliance (“.BC”) indicator was no longer disseminated and the Partnership was removed from the list of NYSE American noncompliant issuers on the NYSE American’s website. Mesquite Adversary Proceeding On October 15, 2021, Mesquite and SN Catarina, LLC (collectively, the “Mesquite Plaintiffs”) initiated adversary proceeding 21-03931 (MI) against the Partnership and Catarina Midstream, LLC (“Catarina Midstream”) in the Bankruptcy Court (the “Mesquite Adversary”). In the Mesquite Adversary, the Mesquite Plaintiffs seek recharacterization of the September 2015 transaction pursuant to which the Partnership acquired from SN Catarina all of SN Catarina’s interest in Catarina Midstream, including the gathering assets then-owned by SN Catarina (the “Catarina Arrangement”), as a disguised financing. The Mesquite Plaintiffs claim that SN Catarina is the legal owner of the gathering system subject to that transaction and demand its return. The Mesquite Plaintiffs also assert various claims for constructive and actual fraudulent transfer arising from (1) the Catarina Arrangement; (2) payments made by SN Catarina to Catarina Midstream under the Gathering Agreement after Catarina Midstream increased tariff rates for interruptible throughput volumes from the eastern portion (“Eastern Catarina”) of Mesquite’s acreage position in Dimmit, La Salle and Webb counties in Texas; and (3) payments made by SN Catarina to Catarina Midstream for the incremental infrastructure fee under the Gathering Agreement amendment and on a month-to-month basis by mutual agreement of the parties after the amendment’s expiration. The Mesquite Plaintiffs seek declaratory relief related to the recharacterization claim as well as avoidance of the alleged constructive and actual fraudulent transfers and recovery of the amounts transferred to Catarina Midstream. Stonepeak Letter Agreement Election On October 29, 2021, pursuant to the terms of the Stonepeak Letter Agreement, the Partnership received written notice of Stonepeak’s election to receive distributions on the Class C Preferred Units for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, in common units. In accordance with the Stonepeak Letter Agreement, the Partnership will issue 10,832,186 common units to Stonepeak on November 22, 2021 (the “Q321 Stonepeak Units”). HOBO Transaction; New Management Team Hires On November 3, 2021, the Partnership entered into a Framework Agreement (the “Framework Agreement”) with HOBO Renewable Diesel LLC (“HOBO”). The Framework Agreement provides that, subject to the satisfaction of applicable conditions precedent, the Partnership will fund certain development expenses of HOBO as HOBO seeks to develop, construct, own and operate renewable fuels facilities. HOBO’s initial project is a 9,000 barrel per day (120 million gallons per year) renewable diesel production facility to be located in Clinton, Iowa (the “Initial Project”). Subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including HOBO securing a long-term strategic offtake agreement for the Initial Project, the Partnership will exclusively fund the development and construction of the Initial Project and future renewable fuels projects that can produce renewable diesel and sustainable aviation fuel (“SAF”) and contribute to the advancement of the transition to a low-carbon world. Renewable diesel and SAF are unique drop-in fuels that are immediately consumable by existing automotive and airplane engines and reduce carbon emissions relative to petroleum based products. These drop-in fuels are in increasingly high demand by customers, including the US federal government, as more organizations embrace de-carbonization. HOBO and the Partnership are also considering incorporation of additional carbon reduction opportunities into the Initial Project and future projects which the management teams believe could result in the production of some of the lowest carbon intensity fuels in the US. We refer to the transactions described above or otherwise contemplated by the Framework Agreement as the “HOBO Transaction.” In furtherance of the Initial Project and to support the Partnership’s energy transition focus, key members of the HOBO leadership team will join the Partnership’s management team effective December 1st, 2021. HOBO Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer Randy Gibbs will join as the new Chief Executive Officer, and as a member of the Board, HOBO Co-Founder and President Mike Keuss will join as the new President and Chief Operating Officer, and HOBO’s Chief Financial Officer Jonathan Hartigan will join as the new President and Chief Investment Officer (the “New Executives”). Each of the New Executives accepted employment effective November 3, 2021, and will transition to their respective director and executive roles effective December 1, 2021. The New Executives have each had long and successful careers in both the fossil fuel and renewable energy spaces and bring extensive experience in project development, engineering, operations, and financing to the Partnership’s management team. In connection with the management team hires, the Partnership’s general partner entered into Executive Services Agreements with each of the New Executives and issued awards under the Evolve Transition Infrastructure 2021 Equity Inducement Award Plan totaling 14,100,000 common units, and under the Partnership’s Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “LTIP”) totaling 3,600,000 common units (such 17,700,000 common units, collectively, the “New Executive Units”). The New Executive Units are subject to vesting in three separate tranches if certain performance conditions with respect to the Initial Project are satisfied or if certain performance metrics relating to total unitholder return are satisfied. Resignation of Chief Executive Officer; Transition Agreement On November 3, 2021, Gerald Willinger, the current Chief Executive Officer of the Partnership’s general partner, resigned from his position as Chief Executive Officer of the Partnership’s general partner and a member of the Board, effective November 30, 2021 and at such time that is immediately prior to December 1, 2021. Mr. Willinger will assist in the onboarding of new management in November to ensure a smooth transition. In connection with Mr. Willinger’s departure, on November 3, 2021, the Partnership’s general partner entered into a Separation and Transition Agreement with Mr. Willinger. Amendments to Stonepeak Warrant As previously disclosed, the LTIP provides that upon the issuance of additional common units from time to time, the maximum number of common units that may be delivered or reserved for delivery with respect to the LTIP shall be automatically increased (each such increase, an “LTIP Increase”) by a number of common units equal to the lesser of (i) fifteen percent (15%) of such additional common units, or (ii) such lesser number of common units as determined by the Board. On October 29, 2021, the Board determined that the LTIP Increase with respect to the Q321 Stonepeak Units will be fifteen percent (15%). On November 5, 2021, the Partnership and Stonepeak entered into Amendment No. 4 to the Stonepeak Warrant to exclude from the Stonepeak Warrant the 1,624,828 Common Units included in the LTIP Increase resulting from the issuance of the Q321 Stonepeak Units, resulting in an additional 1,624,828 Common Units being reserved for delivery with respect to the LTIP. On November 9, 2021, the Board determined that the LTIP Increase with respect to the New Executive Units will be fifteen percent (15%), resulting in an additional 2,655,000 common units being reserved for delivery with respect to the LTIP. On November 9, 2021, the Partnership and Stonepeak entered into Amendment No. 5 to the Stonepeak Warrant to exclude from the Stonepeak Warrant both the New Executive Units and the 2,655,000 Common Units included in the LTIP Increase resulting from the issuance of the New Executive Units. |

Basis Of Presentation And Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation Accounting policies used by us conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of us and our wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. We believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state the financial position, results of operations and cash flows with respect to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, which was filed with the SEC on March 16, 2021. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), which are adopted by us as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not effective, will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements upon adoption. In January 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-01 “Investments – Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815),” which clarifies the interaction among the accounting standards for equity securities, equity method investments and certain derivatives. This ASU is effective for public business entities for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This ASU modifies the impairment model to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the currently used incurred loss methodology, which will result in more timely recognition of losses. Additionally, in November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842): Effective Dates,” which changed the effective date for certain issuers to annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and earlier adoption is permitted. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of this guidance on our condensed consolidated financial statements. Other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies are not expected to have a material impact on the Partnership’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates and the underlying assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported, disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities and reported amounts of revenues and expenses. The estimates that are particularly significant to our financial statements include estimates of our reserves of natural gas, NGLs and oil; future cash flows from oil and natural gas properties; depreciation, depletion and amortization; asset retirement obligations; certain revenues and operating expenses; fair values of derivatives; and fair values of assets and liabilities. As fair value is a market-based measurement, it is determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s best judgment using the data available. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an on-going basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, which management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Such estimates and assumptions are adjusted when facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ from the estimates. Any changes in estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected in the financial statements in future periods. |
