Organization and Basis of Presentation | 1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION: Petrolia Energy Corporation (“we”, “us”, “Petrolia” and the “Company”) is an oil and gas exploration, development, and production company. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s latest Annual Report filed with the SEC on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of operations for a full year. Notes to the consolidated financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017, as reported in Form 10-K, have been omitted. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Askarii Resources and Petrolia Canada Corporation. All significant intercompany transactions are eliminated in the consolidation process. All non-intercompany balances are included in the consolidated financial statement balances and all significant intercompany transactions are eliminated in the consolidation process. The Company accounts for its investment in companies in which it has significant influence by the equity method. The Company’s proportionate share of earnings is included in earnings and added to or deducted from the cost of the investment. Use of Estimates The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the effects of revisions are reflected in the interim consolidated financial statements in the period they are determined. Cash equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At September 30, 2018, the Company did not hold any cash equivalents. Revenue Recognition In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company adopted this standard on a modified retroactive basis on January 1, 2018. No financial statement impact occurred upon adoption. Revenue from Contracts with Customers We recognize revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over a product to a customer. Revenue is measured based on the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those products. Performance Obligations and Significant Judgments We sell oil and natural gas products in the United States through a single reportable segment. We enter into contracts that generally include one type of distinct product in variable quantities and priced based on a specific index related to the type of product. The oil and natural gas is typically sold in an unprocessed state to processors and other third parties for processing and sale to customers. We recognize revenue at a point in time when control of the oil or natural gas passes to the customer or processor, as applicable, discussed below. For oil sales, control is typically transferred to the customer upon receipt at the wellhead or a contractually agreed upon delivery point. Under our natural gas contracts with processors, control transfers upon delivery at the wellhead or the inlet of the processing entity’s system. For our other natural gas contracts, control transfers upon delivery to the inlet or to a contractually agreed upon delivery point. In the cases where we sell to a processor, we have determined that we are the principal in the arrangement and the processors are our customers. We recognize the revenue in these contracts based on the net proceeds received from the processor. Transfer of control drives the presentation of transportation and gathering costs within the accompanying unaudited consolidated statements of operations. Transportation and gathering costs incurred prior to control transfer are recorded within the transportation and gathering expense line item on the accompanying unaudited consolidated statements of operations, while transportation and gathering costs incurred subsequent to control transfer are recorded as a reduction to the related revenue. A portion of our product sales are short-term in nature. For those contracts, we use the practical expedient in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606-10-50-14 exempting us from disclosure of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if the performance obligation is part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less. For our product sales that have a contract term greater than one year, we have utilized the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-50-14(a) which states we are not required to disclose the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if the variable consideration is allocated entirely to an unsatisfied performance obligation. Under these sales contracts, each unit of product represents a separate performance obligation; therefore, future volumes are unsatisfied, and disclosure of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations is not required. We have no unsatisfied performance obligations at the end of each reporting period. We do not believe that significant judgments are required with respect to the determination of the transaction price, including any variable consideration identified. There is a low level of uncertainty due to the precision of measurement and use of index-based pricing with predictable differentials. Additionally, any variable consideration identified is not constrained. Receivables and allowance for doubtful accounts Oil revenues receivable do not bear any interest. These receivables are primarily comprised of joint interest billings. We regularly review collectability and establish or adjust an allowance for uncollectible amounts as necessary using the specific identification method. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. Management has determined that a reserve for uncollectible amounts was not required in the periods presented. Asset Retirement Obligations The Company records a liability for asset retirement obligations (“ARO”) associated with its oil and gas wells when those assets are placed in service. The corresponding cost is capitalized as an asset and included in the carrying amount of oil and gas properties and is depleted over the useful life of the properties. Subsequently, the ARO liability is accreted to its then-present value. Inherent in the fair value calculation of an ARO 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 impact the fair value of the existing ARO liability, a corresponding adjustment is made to the oil and gas property balance. Settlements greater than or less than amounts accrued as ARO are recorded as a gain or loss upon settlement. Debt Issuance Costs Costs incurred in connection with the issuance of long-term debt are presented as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the related debt and amortized over the term of the related debt. Stock-Based Compensation The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to employees in accordance with FASB ASC 718. Stock-based compensation to employees is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the requisite employee service period. The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to other than employees in accordance with FASB ASC 505-50. Equity instruments issued to other than employees are valued at the earlier of a commitment date or upon completion of the services, based on the fair value of the equity instruments, and is recognized as expense over the service period. The Company estimates the fair value of stock-based payments using the Black-Sholes option-pricing model for common stock options and warrants and the closing price of the Company’s common stock for common share issuances. The Company may grant stock to employees and contractors in exchange for services rendered. Derivative Financial Instruments The Company’s derivative financial instruments consist of warrants with an exercise price denominated in a currency other than the Company’s functional currency. These derivative financial instruments are measured at their fair value at the end of each reporting period. Changes in fair value are recorded in net income. Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the observability of inputs as follows: ● Level 1 — Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Valuation adjustments and block discounts are not applied to Level 1 instruments. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these products does not entail a significant degree of judgment; ● Level 2 — Valuations based on one or more quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly; and ● Level 3 — Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, bank indebtedness, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, as reflected in the consolidated balance sheets, approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The carrying value of notes payable approximates their fair value due to immaterial changes in market interest rates and the Company’s credit risk since issuance of the instruments. Business Combinations In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01 Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The ASU provides an updated model for determining if acquired assets and liabilities constitute a business. In a business combination, the acquired assets and liabilities are recognized at fair value and goodwill could be recognized. In an asset acquisition, the assets are allocated value based on relative fair value and no goodwill is recognized. The ASU narrows the definition of a business. We adopted this standard in the first quarter of 2018. ASU 2017-01 did not have a material impact on our financial statements. Foreign Currency Translation The Company’s functional and reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of Petrolia Canada Corporation is the Canadian dollar. Assets and liabilities of these entities are translated from their functional currency of Canadian dollars into the reporting currency, United States dollars, at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet dates. Revenue and expenses are translated at average rates in effect during the reporting periods. Equity transactions are recorded at the historical rate when the transaction occurred. The resulting translation adjustment is reflected as accumulated other comprehensive income, a separate component of stockholders’ equity in the statement of stockholders’ equity. Recent Accounting Pronouncements The Company has evaluated all the recent accounting pronouncements through the filing date and believes that none of them will have a material effect on the Company. |

Going Concern | 3. GOING CONCERN The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company plans to generate profits by reworking its existing oil or gas wells and drilling additional wells, as needed. The Company will need to raise funds through either the sale of its securities, issuance of corporate bonds, joint venture agreements and/or bank financing to accomplish its goals. The Company does not have any commitments or arrangements from any person to provide the Company with any additional capital, at this time. If additional financing is not available when needed, the Company may need to cease operations. The Company may not be successful in raising the capital needed to drill and/or rework existing oil wells. Any additional wells that the Company may drill may be non-productive. Management believes that actions presently being taken to secure additional funding for the reworking of its existing infrastructure will provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern. Since the Company has an oil producing asset, its goal is to increase the production rate by optimizing its current infrastructure. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern; no adjustments to the financial statements have been made to account for this uncertainty. |

Business Combinations [Abstract] | |
Acquisition of Bow Energy Ltd., A Related Party | 4. ACQUISITION OF BOW ENERGY LTD., A RELATED PARTY On November 30, 2017, we signed an Arrangement Agreement (the “Arrangement”) to acquire Bow Energy Ltd, a Canadian company which was then publicly traded on the Toronto Venture Exchange (“Bow” and the “Acquisition”). Bow is considered a related party due to the fact that the largest shareholder of Bow, BSIH Ltd. (“BSIH”), is affiliated with Petrolia’s CEO, Zel C. Khan. Bow’s offices are in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. On February 27, 2018, the Acquisition closed, and we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Bow (each a “Bow Share”). The Arrangement was approved at a special meeting of shareholders of Bow held on February 21, 2018. None of the related party shareholders were included in this meeting. The vote was strictly between the non-affiliated shareholders and final approval of the Arrangement was granted by the Court of Queen’s Bench of Alberta on February 23, 2018. BSIH’s Chief Executive Officer, Ilyas Chaudhary, is related to Mr. Khan. Mr. Chaudhary had a controlling interest in BSIH prior to the acquisition of Bow. Therefore, the Bow acquisition is a related party transaction. Under the terms of the Arrangement, Bow shareholders are deemed to have received 1.15 Petrolia common stock shares for each Bow Share. A total of 106,156,712 shares of the Company’s common stock were issued to the Bow shareholders as a result of the Arrangement, plus additional shares in connection with the rounding described below. The Arrangement provided that no fractional shares would be issued in connection with the Arrangement, and instead, each Bow shareholder otherwise entitled to a fractional interest would receive the nearest whole number of Company shares. For example, where such fractional interest is greater than or equal to 0.5, the number of shares to be issued would be rounded up to the nearest whole number and where such fractional interest is less than 0.5, the number of shares to be issued would be rounded down to the nearest whole number. In calculating such fractional interests, all shares issuable in the name of or beneficially held by each Bow shareholder or their nominee as a result of the Arrangement shall be aggregated. The Arrangement provides that any certificate formerly representing Bow common stock not duly surrendered on or before the last business day prior to the third anniversary of the closing date will cease to represent a claim by, or interest of, any former shareholder of any kind of nature against Bow or the Company and on such date all consideration or other property to which such former holder was entitled shall be deemed to have been surrendered to the Company. The Company also assumed all of the outstanding warrants to purchase shares of common stock of Bow and certain options to purchase shares of common stock of Bow in connection with the Arrangement (i.e., each warrant/option to purchase one (1) share of Bow represents the right to purchase one (1) share of the Company following the closing). At the closing of the Acquisition, we issued the Bow shareholders the shares described above and assumed warrants to purchase 320,000 shares of common stock valued at $103,632. A subsidiary of Bow Energy Ltd., Bow Energy Pte. Ltd., owns 75% of the issued and outstanding shares of Renco Elang Energy Pte. Ltd. (“REE”) which owns a 75% working interest in a Production Sharing Contract referred to as “South Block A” (the “Assets” or “SBA”) located onshore, North Sumatra, Indonesia. REE is the operator of the Assets. Effectively, the Company has a 44.48% working interest in the Assets. On May 24, 2017, Bow’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Bow Energy International Holdings Inc. (“BEIH”), acquired all of Bukit Energy Inc.’s shareholding interests in five Singapore holding companies (the “Holding Companies”) that own the interests in four Production Sharing Contracts (“PSCs”) and one non-conventional joint study agreement (“JSA”), all interests are located onshore in Sumatra, Indonesia. The Holding Companies being acquired were Bukit Energy Central Sumatra (Mahato) Pte. Ltd. (“Mahato”), Bukit Energy Palmerah Baru Pte. Ltd. (“Palmerah Baru”), Bukit Energy Resources Palmerah Deep Pte. Ltd. (“Palmerah Deep”), Bukit Energy Bohorok Pte. Ltd. (“Bohorok”), and Bukit Energy Resources North Sumatra Pte. Ltd. (“Bohorok Deep”), collectively referred to as the “Bukit assets”. The Holding Companies own the following interests in the conventional and non-conventional PSCs and non-conventional JSA: ● Bohorok PSC (conventional) – operated 50% participating interest, 465,266 net acres ● Palmerah Baru PSC (conventional) – operated 54% participating interest, 98,977 net acres ● Palmerah Deep PSC (non-conventional)- operated 69.36% participating interest, 170,398 net acres ● Mahato PSC (conventional)- 20% participating interest, 167,115 net acres, non-operated ● Bohorok Deep (non-conventional)- 20.25% participating interest in a JSA, non-operated with option to become operator The fair value of the 106,156,712 common shares issued as consideration for the acquisition of Bow ($34,607,088) was determined based on the acquisition date fair value of the shares. The purchase price allocation can be summarized as follows: Cash $ 3,784 Accounts receivable 432,973 Other current assets 4,763 Deposits 337,997 Furniture, equipment & software 12,059 Unproved properties and properties not subject to amortization 3,403,250 Accounts payable (1,157,876 ) Note payable (1,429,192 ) Loss on acquisition $ 32,999,330 As a result of the related party nature of the acquisition, the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired were measured at their carrying value, immediately prior to the acquisition with no gain or step-up in fair value. The consideration paid in excess of the net assets acquired was recorded to loss on acquisition.

The Canadian Properties currently encompass 64 sections, with 240 oil and 12 natural gas wells currently producing on the properties.

The effective date of the acquisition was June 1, 2018. The acquisition of the Canadian Properties was evidenced and documented by a Memorandum of Understanding between the Company and Blue Sky dated June 29, 2018 and a Conveyance between the parties dated as of the same date, pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire the Working Interest in consideration for $1,428,581 in Canadian dollars (“CAD”) (approximately $1,096,216 in U.S. dollars) of which CAD $1,022,400 (approximately $782,441 in U.S. dollars) was paid in cash (the “Cash Payment”) and CAD $406,181 (approximately $313,775 in U.S. dollars) was evidenced by a promissory note (the “Acquisition Note”). The Cash Payment was made with funds borrowed by the Company pursuant to the terms of that certain $1,530,000 May 9, 2018, Amended and Restated Loan Agreement entered into with Bow and a third party (the “Loan Agreement” and the “Lender”). The amount owed under the Loan Agreement accrues interest at the rate of 12% per annum (19% upon the occurrence of an event of default) and is due and payable on May 11, 2021.

Asset Retirement Obligation Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Asset Retirement Obligations | 9. ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS Asset retirement obligations (“AROs”) associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets are recognized as liabilities with an increase to the carrying amounts of the related long-lived assets in the period incurred. The fair value of AROs is recognized as of the acquisition date of the working interest (see Note 6). The cost of the tangible asset, including the asset retirement cost, is depleted over the life of the asset. AROs are recorded at estimated fair value, measured by reference to the expected future cash outflows required to satisfy the retirement obligations discounted at the Company’s credit-adjusted risk-free interest rate. Accretion expense is recognized over time as the discounted liabilities are accreted to their expected settlement value. If estimated future costs of AROs change, an adjustment is recorded to both the ARO and the long-lived asset. Revisions to estimated AROs can result from changes in retirement cost estimates, revisions to estimated discount rates and changes in the estimated timing of abandonment. Our ARO is measured using primarily Level 3 inputs. The significant unobservable inputs to this fair value measurement include estimates of plugging costs, remediation costs, inflation rate and well life. The inputs are calculated based on historical data as well as current estimated costs. For the Canadian property additions, abandonment and reclamation liabilities are prescribed by the province in which the Company operates in. The following is a description of the Company’s asset retirement obligations: United States properties Canadian properties Total Asset retirement obligations at beginning of period $ 473,868 $ — $ 473,868 Additions — 1,313,982 1,313,982 Accretion expense 17,476 1,011 18,487 Foreign currency translation — 7,885 7,885 Asset retirement obligations at end of period $ 491,344 $ 1,322,878 $ 1,814,222 |

Summary of Significant Accoun_2
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies) | 9 Months Ended |
Sep. 30, 2018 | |
Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Askarii Resources and Petrolia Canada Corporation. All significant intercompany transactions are eliminated in the consolidation process. All non-intercompany balances are included in the consolidated financial statement balances and all significant intercompany transactions are eliminated in the consolidation process. The Company accounts for its investment in companies in which it has significant influence by the equity method. The Company’s proportionate share of earnings is included in earnings and added to or deducted from the cost of the investment. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the effects of revisions are reflected in the interim consolidated financial statements in the period they are determined. |
Cash Equivalents | Cash equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At September 30, 2018, the Company did not hold any cash equivalents. |
Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company adopted this standard on a modified retroactive basis on January 1, 2018. No financial statement impact occurred upon adoption. Revenue from Contracts with Customers We recognize revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over a product to a customer. Revenue is measured based on the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those products. Performance Obligations and Significant Judgments We sell oil and natural gas products in the United States through a single reportable segment. We enter into contracts that generally include one type of distinct product in variable quantities and priced based on a specific index related to the type of product. The oil and natural gas is typically sold in an unprocessed state to processors and other third parties for processing and sale to customers. We recognize revenue at a point in time when control of the oil or natural gas passes to the customer or processor, as applicable, discussed below. For oil sales, control is typically transferred to the customer upon receipt at the wellhead or a contractually agreed upon delivery point. Under our natural gas contracts with processors, control transfers upon delivery at the wellhead or the inlet of the processing entity’s system. For our other natural gas contracts, control transfers upon delivery to the inlet or to a contractually agreed upon delivery point. In the cases where we sell to a processor, we have determined that we are the principal in the arrangement and the processors are our customers. We recognize the revenue in these contracts based on the net proceeds received from the processor. Transfer of control drives the presentation of transportation and gathering costs within the accompanying unaudited consolidated statements of operations. Transportation and gathering costs incurred prior to control transfer are recorded within the transportation and gathering expense line item on the accompanying unaudited consolidated statements of operations, while transportation and gathering costs incurred subsequent to control transfer are recorded as a reduction to the related revenue. A portion of our product sales are short-term in nature. For those contracts, we use the practical expedient in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606-10-50-14 exempting us from disclosure of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if the performance obligation is part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less. For our product sales that have a contract term greater than one year, we have utilized the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-50-14(a) which states we are not required to disclose the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations if the variable consideration is allocated entirely to an unsatisfied performance obligation. Under these sales contracts, each unit of product represents a separate performance obligation; therefore, future volumes are unsatisfied, and disclosure of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations is not required. We have no unsatisfied performance obligations at the end of each reporting period. We do not believe that significant judgments are required with respect to the determination of the transaction price, including any variable consideration identified. There is a low level of uncertainty due to the precision of measurement and use of index-based pricing with predictable differentials. Additionally, any variable consideration identified is not constrained. |
Receivables and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts | Receivables and allowance for doubtful accounts Oil revenues receivable do not bear any interest. These receivables are primarily comprised of joint interest billings. We regularly review collectability and establish or adjust an allowance for uncollectible amounts as necessary using the specific identification method. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. Management has determined that a reserve for uncollectible amounts was not required in the periods presented. |
Asset Retirement Obligations | Asset Retirement Obligations The Company records a liability for asset retirement obligations (“ARO”) associated with its oil and gas wells when those assets are placed in service. The corresponding cost is capitalized as an asset and included in the carrying amount of oil and gas properties and is depleted over the useful life of the properties. Subsequently, the ARO liability is accreted to its then-present value. Inherent in the fair value calculation of an ARO 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 impact the fair value of the existing ARO liability, a corresponding adjustment is made to the oil and gas property balance. Settlements greater than or less than amounts accrued as ARO are recorded as a gain or loss upon settlement. |
Debt Issuance Costs | Debt Issuance Costs Costs incurred in connection with the issuance of long-term debt are presented as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the related debt and amortized over the term of the related debt. |
Stock-Based Compensation | Stock-Based Compensation The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to employees in accordance with FASB ASC 718. Stock-based compensation to employees is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the requisite employee service period. The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to other than employees in accordance with FASB ASC 505-50. Equity instruments issued to other than employees are valued at the earlier of a commitment date or upon completion of the services, based on the fair value of the equity instruments, and is recognized as expense over the service period. The Company estimates the fair value of stock-based payments using the Black-Sholes option-pricing model for common stock options and warrants and the closing price of the Company’s common stock for common share issuances. The Company may grant stock to employees and contractors in exchange for services rendered. |
Derivative Financial Instruments | Derivative Financial Instruments The Company’s derivative financial instruments consist of warrants with an exercise price denominated in a currency other than the Company’s functional currency. These derivative financial instruments are measured at their fair value at the end of each reporting period. Changes in fair value are recorded in net income. |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the observability of inputs as follows: ● Level 1 — Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Valuation adjustments and block discounts are not applied to Level 1 instruments. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these products does not entail a significant degree of judgment; ● Level 2 — Valuations based on one or more quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly; and ● Level 3 — Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, bank indebtedness, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, as reflected in the consolidated balance sheets, approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The carrying value of notes payable approximates their fair value due to immaterial changes in market interest rates and the Company’s credit risk since issuance of the instruments. |
Business Combinations | Business Combinations In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01 Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The ASU provides an updated model for determining if acquired assets and liabilities constitute a business. In a business combination, the acquired assets and liabilities are recognized at fair value and goodwill could be recognized. In an asset acquisition, the assets are allocated value based on relative fair value and no goodwill is recognized. The ASU narrows the definition of a business. We adopted this standard in the first quarter of 2018. ASU 2017-01 did not have a material impact on our financial statements. |
Foreign Currency Translation | Foreign Currency Translation The Company’s functional and reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of Petrolia Canada Corporation is the Canadian dollar. Assets and liabilities of these entities are translated from their functional currency of Canadian dollars into the reporting currency, United States dollars, at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet dates. Revenue and expenses are translated at average rates in effect during the reporting periods. Equity transactions are recorded at the historical rate when the transaction occurred. The resulting translation adjustment is reflected as accumulated other comprehensive income, a separate component of stockholders’ equity in the statement of stockholders’ equity. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements The Company has evaluated all the recent accounting pronouncements through the filing date and believes that none of them will have a material effect on the Company. |

The difference between the face value and carrying amount is attributed to accrued interest. i. On January 6, 2017, the Company purchased a truck and entered into an installment note with Don Ringer Toyota in the amount of $59,923 for a term of five years at an annual percentage rate (APR) of 5.49%. The current portion of this note is $38,997. ii. On May 9, 2018, Bow entered into an Amended and Restated Loan Agreement with a third party. The Loan Agreement increased by $800,000 the amount of a previous loan agreement entered into between Bow and the Lender, to $1,530,000. The amount owed under the Loan Agreement ($1,530,000) accrues interest at the rate of 12% per annum (19% upon the occurrence of an event of default) and is due and payable on May 11, 2021, provided that the amount owed can be prepaid prior to maturity, beginning 60 days after the date of the Loan Agreement, provided that the Company give the Lender 10 days’ notice of our intent to repay and pay the Lender the interest which would have been due through the maturity date at the time of repayment. The Company is also required to make a payment of principal and interest in the amount of $50,818 per month for a period of 36 months towards the amount owed beginning on July 15, 2018; these payments were extended to begin on September 15, 2018. The Loan Agreement contains standard and customary events of default, including cross defaults under other indebtedness obligations of us and Bow, and the occurrence of any event which would have a material adverse effect on us or Bow. The additional $800,000 borrowed in connection with the entry into the Loan Agreement was used by the Company to acquire the Working Interest in the Canadian Properties described above in Note 6. In order to induce the Lender to enter into the Loan Agreement, the Company agreed to issue the Lender 500,000 shares of restricted common stock (the “Loan Shares”), which were issued on May 18, 2018, and warrants to purchase 2,320,000 shares of common stock (the “Loan Warrants”), of which warrants to purchase (a) 320,000 shares of common stock have an exercise price of $0.10 per share in Canadian dollars and expire in May 15, 2021, (b) 500,000 shares of common stock have an exercise price of $0.12 per share in U.S. dollars, and expire on May 15, 2021; and (c) 1,500,000 shares of common stock have an exercise price of $0.10 per share in U.S. dollars and expire on May 15, 2020. The fair value of the 500,000 common shares issued were assessed at the market price of the stock on the date of issuance and valued at $47,500. The fair value of the Canadian dollar denominated warrants issued were assessed at $30,012 using the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model. The fair value of the U.S. dollar denominated warrants issued were assessed at $182,650 using the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model. The Company determined the debt modification to be an extinguishment of debt and recorded a total loss on extinguishment of debt of $260,162. Upon the disposition of Bow pursuant to the Exchange Agreement described above under Note 5, a total of $730,000 of the obligations owed under the Loan Agreement transferred to Blue Sky. iii. On September 17, 2018, the Company entered into a loan agreement with a third party for $200,000 for the purpose of acquiring an additional 3% working interest in the Canadian Properties (note 6). The loan bears interest at 12% per annum and has a maturity date of October 17, 2019. Payments of principal and interest are due monthly, commencing on October 17, 2018. The loan is secured against the Company’s 3% Working Interest in the Canadian Properties and has no financial covenants. |

[2] | On May 9, 2018, Bow entered into an Amended and Restated Loan Agreement with a third party. The Loan Agreement increased by $800,000 the amount of a previous loan agreement entered into between Bow and the Lender, to $1,530,000. The amount owed under the Loan Agreement ($1,530,000) accrues interest at the rate of 12% per annum (19% upon the occurrence of an event of default) and is due and payable on May 11, 2021, provided that the amount owed can be prepaid prior to maturity, beginning 60 days after the date of the Loan Agreement, provided that the Company give the Lender 10 days' notice of our intent to repay and pay the Lender the interest which would have been due through the maturity date at the time of repayment. The Company is also required to make a payment of principal and interest in the amount of $50,818 per month for a period of 36 months towards the amount owed beginning on July 15, 2018; these payments were extended to begin on September 15, 2018. The Loan Agreement contains standard and customary events of default, including cross defaults under other indebtedness obligations of us and Bow, and the occurrence of any event which would have a material adverse effect on us or Bow. The additional $800,000 borrowed in connection with the entry into the Loan Agreement was used by the Company to acquire the Working Interest in the Canadian Properties described above in Note 6. In order to induce the Lender to enter into the Loan Agreement, the Company agreed to issue the Lender 500,000 shares of restricted common stock (the "Loan Shares"), which were issued on May 18, 2018, and warrants to purchase 2,320,000 shares of common stock (the "Loan Warrants"), of which warrants to purchase (a) 320,000 shares of common stock have an exercise price of $0.10 per share in Canadian dollars and expire in May 15, 2021, (b) 500,000 shares of common stock have an exercise price of $0.12 per share in U.S. dollars, and expire on May 15, 2021; and (c) 1,500,000 shares of common stock have an exercise price of $0.10 per share in U.S. dollars and expire on May 15, 2020. The fair value of the 500,000 common shares issued were assessed at the market price of the stock on the date of issuance and valued at $47,500. The fair value of the Canadian dollar denominated warrants issued were assessed at $30,012 using the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model. The fair value of the U.S. dollar denominated warrants issued were assessed at $182,650 using the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model. The Company determined the debt modification to be an extinguishment of debt and recorded a total loss on extinguishment of debt of $260,162. Upon the disposition of Bow pursuant to the Exchange Agreement described above under Note 5, a total of $730,000 of the obligations owed under the Loan Agreement transferred to Blue Sky. | ||
[3] | On September 17, 2018, the Company entered into a loan agreement with a third party for $200,000 for the purpose of acquiring an additional 3% working interest in the Canadian Properties (note 6). The loan bears interest at 12% per annum and has a maturity date of October 17, 2019. Payments of principal and interest are due monthly, commencing on October 17, 2018. The loan is secured against the Company's 3% Working Interest in the Canadian Properties and has no financial covenants. |
