Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The condensed consolidated financial statements (the financial statements) have been prepared pursuant ASC 270, Interim Reporting. Accordingly, certain information and disclosures normally included in complete financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, these financial statements include all adjustments, which unless otherwise disclosed, are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, cash flows and changes in equity for the period presented. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year. The unaudited financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2023.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The Company has provided a discussion of its significant accounting policies, estimates and judgments in Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies included in the accompanying notes to its audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023. The Company has not changed any of its significant accounting policies from those described in those financial statements.

Note 4. Commodity Derivative Financial Instruments
Commodity derivative instruments may take the form of collars, swaps or other derivatives indexed to WTI, NYMEX or other commodity price indexes.
Such derivative instruments will not exceed anticipated production volumes, are expected to have a reasonable correlation between price movements in the futures market and the spot markets where the Company’s production is sold, and are authorized by the Board of Managers. Derivatives are expected to be realized as related production occurs, but may be terminated earlier if anticipated downward price movement occurs or if the Company believes the potential for such movement has abated. The Company’s crude oil and natural gas derivative positions consist of swaps and collars. Swaps and collars are designed so that the Company receives or makes payments based on a differential between fixed and variable prices for crude oil and natural gas.

In the Company’s acquisition of existing or previously drilled wellbores, the Company may not be aware of what environmental safeguards were taken at the time such wells were drilled or during such time the wells were operated.
