Organization Consolidation And Presentation Of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Organization | NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION We are a publicly traded (OTCQX: TTEN) Delaware limited liability company and an independent developer and producer of natural gas, crude oil and NGLs with operations in basins across the United States but primarily focused on the horizontal development of resource potential from the Eagle Ford Shale in South Texas. We sponsor and manage tax-advantaged investment partnerships (the “Drilling Partnerships”), in which we coinvest, to finance a portion of our natural gas, crude oil and NGL production activities. As discussed further below, we are the successor to the business and operations of Atlas Resource Partners, L.P. (“ARP”). Unless the context otherwise requires, references to “Titan Energy, LLC,” “Titan,” “the Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our,” refer to Titan Energy, LLC and our consolidated subsidiaries (and our predecessor, where applicable). Titan Energy Management, LLC (“Titan Management”) manages us and holds our Series A Preferred Share, which entitles Titan Management to receive 2% of the aggregate of distributions paid to shareholders (as if it held 2% of our members’ equity, subject to dilution as discussed below) and to appoint four of our seven directors. Titan Management is a wholly owned subsidiary of Atlas Energy Group, LLC (“ATLS”; OTCQX: ATLS), which is a publicly traded company. In addition to its preferred member interest in us, ATLS also holds general and limited partner interests in Atlas Growth Partners, L.P. (“AGP”), a Delaware limited partnership and an independent developer and producer of natural gas, oil and NGLs, with operations primarily focused in the Eagle Ford Shale, and in Lightfoot Capital Partners, L.P. and Lightfoot Capital Partners GP, LLC, which incubate new MLPs and invest in existing MLPs. At March 31, 2017, we had 5,447,787 common shares representing limited liability company interests issued and outstanding. ARP Restructuring and Emergence from Chapter 11 Proceedings On July 25, 2016, ARP and certain of its subsidiaries and ATLS, solely with respect to certain sections thereof, entered into a Restructuring Support Agreement (the “Restructuring Support Agreement”) with certain of their lenders (the “Restructuring Support Parties”) to support ARP’s restructuring pursuant to a pre-packaged plan of reorganization (the “Plan”). On July 27, 2016, ARP and certain of its subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court,” and the cases commenced thereby, the “Chapter 11 Filings”). The cases commenced thereby were jointly administered under the caption “In re: ATLAS RESOURCE PARTNERS, L.P., et al.” On August 26, 2016, an order confirming the Plan was entered by the Bankruptcy Court. On September 1, 2016, (the “Plan Effective Date”), pursuant to the Plan, the following occurred: • ARP’s first lien lenders received cash payment of all obligations owed to them by ARP pursuant to the senior secured revolving credit facility (other than $440 million of principal and face amount of letters of credit) and became lenders under our first lien exit facility credit agreement, composed of a $410 million conforming reserve-based tranche and a $30 million non-conforming tranche (the “First Lien Credit Facility”) (refer to Note 4 – Debt for further information regarding terms and provisions). • ARP’s second lien lenders received a pro rata share of our second lien exit facility credit agreement with an aggregate principal amount of $252.5 million (the “Second Lien Credit Facility”) (refer to Note 4 – Debt for further information regarding terms and provisions). In addition, ARP’s second lien lenders received a pro rata share of 10% of our common shares, subject to dilution by a management incentive plan. • ARP’s senior note holders, in exchange for 100% of the $668 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes outstanding plus accrued but unpaid interest as of the commencement of the Chapter 11 Filings, received 90% of our common shares, subject to dilution by a management incentive plan. • all of ARP’s preferred limited partnership units and common limited partnership units were cancelled without the receipt of any consideration or recovery. • ARP transferred all of its assets and operations to us as a new holding company and ARP dissolved. As a result, we became the successor issuer to ARP for purposes of and pursuant to Rule 12g-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. • Titan Management, a wholly owned subsidiary of ATLS, received a Series A Preferred Share, which entitles Titan Management to receive 2% of the aggregate of distributions paid to shareholders (as if it held 2% of our members’ equity, subject to dilution if catch-up contributions are not made with respect to future equity issuances, other than pursuant to the management incentive plan) and certain other rights as provided for in the Restructuring Support Agreement. Four of the seven initial members of the board of directors were designated by Titan Management (the “Titan Class A Directors”). For so long as Titan Management holds such preferred share, the Titan Class A Directors will be appointed by a majority of the Titan Class A Directors then in office. We have a continuing right to purchase the preferred share at fair market value (as determined pursuant to the methodology provided for in our limited liability company agreement), subject to the receipt of certain approvals, including the holders of at least 67% of the outstanding common shares of us unaffiliated with Titan Management voting in favor of the exercise of the right to purchase the preferred share. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding interim financial reporting and include all adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of our consolidated results of operations, financial condition and cash flows for the periods shown, including normal, recurring accruals and other items. The consolidated results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. For a more complete discussion of our accounting policies and certain other information, refer to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016. In connection with the Chapter 11 Filings, we were subject to the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 852 Reorganizations Upon emergence from bankruptcy on the Plan Effective Date, we adopted fresh-start accounting in accordance with ASC 852. Upon adoption of fresh-start accounting, our assets and liabilities were recorded at their fair values as of the Plan Effective Date, which differed materially from the recorded values of ARP’s assets and liabilities. As a result, our condensed consolidated statement of operations subsequent to the Plan Effective Date is not comparable to ARP’s condensed consolidated statement of operations prior to the Plan Effective Date. Our condensed consolidated financial statements and related footnotes are presented with a black line division which delineates the lack of comparability between amounts presented on or after the Plan Effective Date and dates prior. Our financial results for future periods following the application of fresh-start accounting will be different from historical trends and the differences may be material. References to “Successor” relate to the Company on and subsequent to the Plan Effective Date. References to “Predecessor” refer to the Company prior to the Plan Effective Date. The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Successor have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and contemplate the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to our condensed consolidated financial statements for the prior year periods to conform to classifications used in the current year, specifically related to our segment information on the condensed consolidated statement of operations and segment footnote disclosures. See Note 10 for additional information. Principles of Consolidation Our condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. Transactions between us and other ATLS managed operations have been identified in the condensed consolidated financial statements as transactions between affiliates, where applicable. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated. In accordance with established practice in the oil and gas industry, our condensed consolidated financial statements include our pro-rata share of assets, liabilities, income and lease operating and general and administrative costs and expenses of the Drilling Partnerships in which we have an interest. Such interests generally approximate 10-30%. Our condensed consolidated financial statements do not include proportional consolidation of the depletion or impairment expenses of the Drilling Partnerships. Rather, we calculate these items specific to our own economics. Liquidity and Capital Resources Our Predecessor had historically funded its operations, acquisitions and cash distributions primarily through cash flows generated from its operations, amounts available under its credit facilities and equity and debt offerings. Since the Plan Effective Date, we have funded our operations through cash flows generated from our operations. Our future cash flows are subject to a number of variables, including oil and natural gas prices. Prices for oil and natural gas began to decline significantly during the fourth quarter of 2014 and have continued to decline and remain low in 2017. These lower commodity prices have negatively impacted our revenues, earnings and cash flows. Sustained low commodity prices could have a material and adverse effect on our liquidity position. In addition, challenges with our ability to raise capital through our Drilling Partnerships, either as a result of downturn in commodity prices or other difficulties affecting the fundraising channel, have negatively impacted our ability to remain in compliance with the covenants under our credit facilities. We were not in compliance with certain of the financial covenants under our credit facilities as of December 31, 2016, as well as the requirement to deliver audited financial statements without a going concern qualification. As a result of the amendment referenced below, our financial covenants will not be tested again until the quarter ending December 31, 2017. We do not currently have sufficient liquidity to repay all of our outstanding indebtedness, and as a result, there is substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. We have classified $701.6 million of outstanding indebtedness under our credit facilities, which is net of $1.9 million of deferred financing costs, as current portion of long term debt, net within our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2017, based on the occurrence of the event of default, the lenders under our credit facilities, as applicable, could elect to declare all amounts outstanding immediately due and payable and the lenders could terminate all commitments to extend further credit. On April 19, 2017, we entered into an amendment to our First Lien Credit Facility in an attempt to ameliorate some of our liquidity concerns. The amendment provides for, among other things, waivers of our non-compliance, increases in certain financial covenant ratios and scheduled decreases in our borrowing base (refer to Note 4 – Debt for further information regarding the specific amended terms and provisions). In addition, we expect that we will sell a significant amount of non-core assets in the near future to comply with the requirements of our First Lien Credit Facility amendment and to attempt to enhance our liquidity. In addition to the amendments to the financial ratio covenants, the First Lien Credit Facility lenders waived certain defaults by us with respect to the fourth quarter of 2016, including compliance with the ratios of Total Debt to EBITDA and First Lien Debt to EBITDA, as well as our obligation to deliver financial statements without a “going concern” qualification. The First Lien Credit Facility lenders’ waivers are subject to revocation in certain circumstances, including the exercise of remedies by junior lenders (including pursuant to our Second Lien Credit Facility), the failure to extend the standstill period under the intercreditor agreement at least 15 business days prior to its expiration, and the occurrence of additional events of default under the First Lien Credit Facility. Even following this amendment, we continue to face liquidity issues and are currently considering, and are likely to make, changes to our capital structure to maintain sufficient liquidity, meet our debt obligations and manage and strengthen our balance sheet. On April 21, 2017, the lenders under the our Second Lien Credit Facility delivered a notice of events of default and reservation of rights, pursuant to which they noticed events of default related to financial covenants and the failure to deliver financial statements without a “going concern” qualification. The delivery of such notice began the 180-day standstill period under the intercreditor agreement, during which the lenders under the Second Lien Credit Facility are prevented from pursuing remedies against the collateral securing our obligations under the Second Lien Credit Facility. The lenders have not accelerated the payment of amounts outstanding under the Second Lien Credit Facility. We continually monitor the capital markets and our capital structure and may make changes to our capital structure from time to time, with the goal of maintaining financial flexibility, preserving or improving liquidity, strengthening our balance sheet and meeting our debt service obligations. We could pursue options such as refinancing, restructuring or reorganizing our indebtedness or capital structure or seek to raise additional capital through debt or equity financing to address our liquidity concerns and high debt levels. We are evaluating various options, but there is no certainty that we will be able to implement any such options, and we cannot provide any assurances that any refinancing or changes in our debt or equity capital structure would be possible or that additional equity or debt financing could be obtained on acceptable terms, if at all, and such options may result in a wide range of outcomes for our stakeholders. In addition, we expect that we will sell a significant amount of non-core assets in the near future to comply with the requirements of our First Lien Credit Facility amendment and to attempt to enhance our liquidity. We cannot assure you that we would be able to implement the above actions, if necessary, on commercially reasonable terms, or at all, in a manner that would be permitted under the terms of our debt instruments or in a manner that does not negatively impact the price of our securities. Additionally, there can be no assurance that the above actions would allow us to meet our debt obligations and capital requirements. Appalachia Divestiture On May 4, 2017, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell our conventional Appalachia and Marcellus assets to Diversified Gas & Oil, PLC, for $84.2 million. The transaction includes the sale of approximately 8,400 oil and gas wells across Pennsylvania, Ohio, Tennessee, New York and West Virginia, along with the associated infrastructure (the “Appalachian Assets”). In 2016, the Appalachian Assets generated approximately 30 MMcfepd of net production (92% gas, 8% liquids). We will retain our Utica Shale position, Indiana assets and West Virginia CBM assets in the region. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, has an effective date of April 1, 2017 and is expected to close in June 2017. The net proceeds will be used to repay a portion of outstanding borrowings under our First Lien Credit Facility. The transaction will significantly improve our First Lien Credit Facility metrics and is expected to fulfill our borrowing base step down to $360 million, which is scheduled to occur on August 31, 2017. Use of Estimates The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities that exist at the date of our condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and costs and expenses during the reporting periods. Our condensed consolidated financial statements are based on a number of significant estimates, including revenue and expense accruals, depletion of gas and oil properties and fair value of derivative instruments. The oil and gas industry principally conducts its business by processing actual transactions as many as 60 days after the month of delivery. Consequently, the most recent two months’ financial results were recorded using estimated volumes and contract market prices. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Income Taxes Our effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was 0.6%, which represents our expected Texas Franchise Tax liability. Our income tax provision differs from the provision computed by applying the U.S. Federal statutory corporate income tax rate of 35% primarily due to the valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets. Successor’s Net Income Attributable to Common Shareholders Per Share Our Successor’s basic net income attributable to common shareholders per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to our common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, excluding any unvested restricted shares, for the period. Our Successor’s diluted net income attributable to common shareholders per share is similarly calculated except that the common shares outstanding for the period are increased using the treasury stock method to reflect the potential dilution that could occur if outstanding share based awards were vested at the end of the applicable period. Anti-dilutive shares represent potentially dilutive securities that are excluded from the computation of diluted net income attributable to common shareholders per share as their impact would be anti-dilutive. The following table is a reconciliation of our Successor’s basic and diluted weighted average number of common shares used to calculate basic and diluted net income attributable to common shareholders per share Successor Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 Weighted average number of common shares - basic (1) 5,170 Add dilutive effect of share based awards at end of period 316 Weighted average number of common shares - diluted 5,486 (1) For the period presented, 278,000 restricted common shares outstanding were excluded from the basic weighted average number of common shares because they were not vested. Predecessor’s Net Income Per Common Unit The following is a reconciliation of net income allocated to our Predecessor’s common limited partners for purposes of calculating net income attributable to our Predecessor’s common limited partners per unit (in thousands, except unit data): Predecessor Three Months ended March 31, 2016 Net income $ 12,763 Preferred limited partner dividends (3,648 ) Net income attributable to common limited partners and the general partner 9,115 Less: General partner’s interest 182 Net income attributable to common limited partners 8,933 Less: Net income attributable to participating securities – phantom units 25 Net income utilized in the calculation of net income attributable to common limited partners per unit – Basic 8,908 Plus: Convertible preferred limited partner dividends (1) — Net income utilized in the calculation of net loss attributable to common limited partners per unit – Diluted $ 8,908 (1) For the period presented, distributions on our Predecessor’s Class C convertible preferred units were The following table sets forth the reconciliation of our Predecessor’s weighted average number of common limited partner units used to compute basic net income attributable to our Predecessor’s common limited partners per unit with those used to compute diluted net income attributable to our Predecessor’s common limited partners per unit (in thousands): Predecessor Three Months Ended March 31, 2016 Weighted average number of common limited partner units—basic 102,403 Add effect of dilutive incentive awards 293 Add effect of dilutive convertible preferred limited partner units (1) — Weighted average number of common limited partner units—diluted 102,696 (1) For the period presented, potential common limited partner units issuable upon (a) conversion of our Predecessor’s Class C preferred units and (b) exercise of the common unit warrants issued with our Predecessor’s Class C preferred units were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings attributable to common limited partners per unit, because the inclusion of such units would have been anti-dilutive. As our Predecessor’s Class D and Class E preferred units were convertible only upon a change of control event, they were not considered dilutive securities for earnings per unit purposes. Recently Issued Accounting Standards In February 2016, the FASB updated the accounting guidance related to leases. The updated accounting guidance requires lessees to recognize a lease asset and liability at the commencement date of all leases (with the exception of short-term leases), initially measured at the present value of the lease payments. The updated guidance is effective for us as of January 1, 2019 and requires a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest period presented. We are currently in the process of determining the impact that the updated accounting guidance will have on our condensed consolidated financial statements. In May 2014, the FASB updated the accounting guidance related to revenue recognition. The updated accounting guidance provides a single, contract-based revenue recognition model to help improve financial reporting by providing clearer guidance on when an entity should recognize revenue, and by reducing the number of standards to which an entity has to refer. In July 2015, the FASB voted to defer the effective date by one year to December 15, 2017 for annual reporting periods beginning after that date. The updated accounting guidance provides companies with alternative methods of adoption. We are evaluating the impact of this updated accounting guidance on our condensed consolidated financial statements, and based on the continuing evaluation of our revenue streams, this accounting guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our net income (loss). This accounting guidance will require that our revenue recognition policy disclosures include further detail regarding our performance obligations as to the nature, amount, timing, and estimates of revenue and cash flows generated from our contracts with customers. We are still in the process of determining whether or not we will use the retrospective method or the modified retrospective approach to implementation. |

We capitalize interest on borrowed funds related to capital projects only for periods that activities are in progress to bring these projects to their intended use. The weighted average interest rate used to capitalize interest on borrowed funds during the Successor three months ended March 31, 2017 and the Predecessor three months ended March 31, 2016, was 7.7% and 6.7%, respectively. The aggregate amount of interest capitalized during the Successor three months ended March 31, 2017 and the Predecessor three months ended March 31, 2016 was $0.1 million and $2.4 million, respectively. For the Successor three months ended March 31, 2017 and the Predecessor three months ended March 31, 2016, we recorded $1.9 million and $1.7 million, respectively, of accretion expense related to our and our Predecessor’s asset retirement obligations within depreciation, depletion and amortization in our and our Predecessor’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. For the Predecessor three months ended March 31, 2016, our Predecessor incurred liabilities of $2.8 million in asset retirement obligations in its condensed consolidated balance sheet due to the consolidation of some of its Drilling Partnerships. |

Total cash payments for interest by us for the Successor three months ended March 31, 2017 and the Predecessor three months ended March 31, 2016, were $6.9 million and $41.2 million, respectively. First Lien Credit Facility On September 1, 2016, we entered into our $440 million First Lien Credit Facility with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”), as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto. A summary of the key provisions of the First Lien Credit Facility is as follows: • Borrowing base of a $410 million conforming reserve based tranche plus a $30 million non-conforming tranche. • Provides for the issuance of letters of credit, which reduce borrowing capacity. • Obligations are secured by mortgages on substantially all of our oil and gas properties and first priority security interests in substantially all of our assets and are guaranteed by certain of our material subsidiaries, and any non-guarantor subsidiaries of ours are minor. • Borrowings bear interest at our election at either LIBOR plus an applicable margin between 3.00% and 4.00% per annum or the “alternate base rate” plus an applicable margin between 2.00% and 3.00% per annum, which fluctuates based on utilization. We are also required to pay a fee of 0.50% per annum on the unused portion of the borrowing base. At March 31, 2017, the weighted average interest rate on outstanding borrowings under the First Lien Credit Facility was 5.0%. • Contains covenants that limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness, grant liens, make loans or investments, make distributions, merge into or consolidate with other persons, enter into commodity or interest rate swap agreements that do not conform to specified terms or that exceed specified amounts, or engage in certain asset dispositions including a sale of all or substantially all of our assets. • Requires us to enter into commodity hedges covering at least 80% of our expected 2019 production prior to December 31, 2017. We were not in compliance with certain of the financial covenants under our credit facilities as of December 31, 2016, as well as the requirement to deliver audited financial statements without a going concern qualification. On April 19, 2017, we, Titan Energy Operating, LLC (our wholly owned subsidiary), as borrower, and certain subsidiary guarantors entered into a Third Amendment (the “First Lien Credit Facility Amendment”) to the First Lien Credit Facility with Wells Fargo, as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto. Pursuant to the First Lien Credit Facility Amendment, certain of the financial ratio covenants were revised upwards. Specifically, beginning December 31, 2017, we will be required to maintain a ratio of Total Debt to EBITDA (each as defined in the First Lien Credit Facility) of not more than 5.50 to 1.00 for each fiscal quarter through December 31, 2018 and of not more than 5.00 to 1.00 thereafter. We will also be required, beginning December 31, 2017, to maintain a ratio of First Lien Debt (as defined in the First Lien Credit Facility) to EBITDA of not more than 4.00 to 1.00 for each fiscal quarter through December 31, 2018 and of not more than 3.50 to 1.00 thereafter. In addition to the amendments to the financial ratio covenants, the First Lien Credit Facility lenders waived certain defaults by us with respect to the fourth quarter of 2016, including compliance with the ratios of Total Debt to EBITDA and First Lien Debt to EBITDA, as well as our obligation to deliver financial statements without a “going concern” qualification. The First Lien Credit Facility lenders’ waivers are subject to revocation in certain circumstances, including the exercise of remedies by junior lenders (including pursuant to our second lien credit facility), the failure to extend the 180-day standstill period under the intercreditor agreement at least 15 business days prior to its expiration, and the occurrence of additional events of default under the First Lien Credit Facility. The First Lien Credit Facility Amendment confirms the conforming and non-conforming tranches of the borrowing base at $410 million and $30 million, respectively, but requires us to take actions (which can include asset sales and equity offerings) to reduce the conforming tranche of the borrowing base to $330 million by August 31, 2017 and to $190 million by October 1, 2017 (subject to extension at the administrative agent’s option to October 31, 2017). Similarly, the non-conforming tranche of the borrowing base will be required to be reduced to $10 million by November 1, 2017. In addition, we will be required to use excess asset sale proceeds (after application in accordance with the existing terms of the First Lien Credit Facility) to repay outstanding borrowings and reduce the applicable borrowing base to the required level. Second Lien Credit Facility On September 1, 2016, we entered into our Second Lien Credit Facility with Wilmington Trust, National Association, as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto for an aggregate principal amount of $252.5 million maturing on February 23, 2020. A summary of the key provisions of the Second Lien Credit Facility is as follows: • Until May 1, 2017, interest will be payable at a rate of 2% in cash plus paid-in-kind interest at a rate equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate (as defined in the Second Lien Credit Facility) plus 9% per annum. During the subsequent 15-month period, cash and paid-in-kind interest will vary based on a pricing grid tied to our leverage ratio under the First Lien Credit Facility. After such 15-month period, interest will accrue at a rate equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus 9% per annum and will be payable in cash. • All prepayments are subject to the following premiums, plus accrued and unpaid interest: o 4.5% of the principal amount prepaid for prepayments prior to February 23, 2017; o 2.25% of the principal amount prepaid for prepayments on or after February 23, 2017 and prior to February 23, 2018; and o no premium for prepayments on or after February 23, 2018. • Obligations are secured on a second priority basis by security interests in the same collateral securing the First Lien Credit Facility and are guaranteed by certain of our material subsidiaries, and any non-guarantor subsidiaries of ours are minor. • Contains covenants that limit our ability to make restricted payments, take on indebtedness, issue preferred stock, grant liens, conduct sales of assets and subsidiary stock, make distributions from restricted subsidiaries, conduct affiliate transactions, engage in other business activities, and other covenants substantially similar to those in the First Lien Credit Facility, including, among others, restrictions on swap agreements, debt of unrestricted subsidiaries, drilling and operating agreements and the sale or discount of receivables. • Requires us to maintain certain financial ratios (the financial ratios will use an annualized EBITDA measurement for periods prior to June 30, 2017): o EBITDA to Interest Expense (each as defined in the Second Lien Credit Facility) of not less than 2.50 to 1.00; o Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Second Lien Credit Facility) of no greater than 5.5 to 1.0 prior to December 31, 2017 and no greater than 5.0 to 1.0 thereafter; and o Current assets to current liabilities (each as defined in the Second Lien Credit Facility) of not less than 1.0 to 1.0. On April 21, 2017, the lenders under the our Second Lien Credit Facility delivered a Notice, pursuant to which they noticed events of default related to financial covenants and the failure to deliver financial statements without a “going concern” qualification. The delivery of the Notice began the 180-day standstill period under the intercreditor agreement, during which the lenders under the Second Lien Credit Facility are prevented from pursuing remedies against the collateral securing our obligations under the Second Lien Credit Facility. The lenders have not accelerated the payment of amounts outstanding under the Second Lien Credit Facility. |

Derivative Instruments And Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Derivative Instruments | NOTE 5 – DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS We use a number of different derivative instruments, principally swaps and options, in connection with our commodity price risk management activities. We do not apply hedge accounting to any of our derivative instruments. As a result, gains and losses associated with derivative instruments are recognized in earnings. We enter into commodity future option contracts to achieve more predictable cash flows by hedging our exposure to changes in commodity prices. At any point in time, such contracts may include regulated New York Mercantile Stock Exchange (“NYMEX”) futures and options contracts and non-regulated over-the-counter futures contracts with qualified counterparties. NYMEX contracts are generally settled with offsetting positions, but may be settled by the physical delivery of the commodity. Crude oil contracts are based on a West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) index. NGL fixed price swaps are priced based on a WTI crude oil index, while ethane, propane, butane and iso butane contracts are priced based on the respective Mt. Belvieu price. These contracts were recorded at their fair values. The following table summarizes the commodity derivative activity and presentation in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the periods indicated (in thousands): Successor Predecessor Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 2016 Portion of settlements associated with gains (losses) previously recognized within accumulated other comprehensive income, net of prior year offsets (1) $ — $ 3,515 Portion of settlements attributable to subsequent mark to market gains (losses) (2) (3,749 ) 45,193 Total cash settlements on commodity derivative contracts $ (3,749 ) $ 48,708 Gains recognized on cash settlement (2) $ 6,335 $ 5,788 Gains recognized on open derivative contracts (2) 23,158 40,332 Gains on mark-to-market derivatives $ 29,493 $ 46,120 (1) Recognized in gas and oil production revenue.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | NOTE 6 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Assets and Liabilities Measured on a Recurring Basis We use a market approach fair value methodology to value our outstanding derivative contracts. The fair value of a financial instrument depends on a number of factors, including the availability of observable market data over the contractual term of the underlying instrument. We separate the fair value of our financial instruments into the three level hierarchy (Levels 1, 2 and 3) based on our assessment of the availability of observable market data and the significance of non-observable data used to determine fair value. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, all of our derivative financial instruments were classified as Level 2. Information for financial instruments measured at fair value were as follows (in thousands): Derivatives, Fair Value, as of March 31, 2017 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets, gross Commodity swaps $ — $ 3,832 $ — $ 3,832 Total derivative assets, gross — 3,832 — 3,832 Liabilities, gross Commodity swaps — (20,003 ) — (20,003 ) Total derivative liabilities, gross — (20,003 ) — (20,003 ) Total derivatives, fair value, net $ — $ (16,171 ) $ — $ (16,171 ) Derivatives, Fair Value, as of December 31, 2016 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets, gross Commodity swaps $ — $ 826 $ — $ 826 Total derivative assets, gross — 826 — 826 Liabilities, gross Commodity swaps $ — (50,240 ) — (50,240 ) Total derivative liabilities, gross — (50,240 ) — (50,240 ) Total derivatives, fair value, net — $ (49,414 ) $ — $ (49,414 ) Other Financial Instruments Our other current assets and liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets are considered to be financial instruments. The estimated fair values of these instruments approximate their carrying amounts due to their short-term nature and thus are categorized as Level 1. The estimated fair value of our long-term debt at March 31, 2017, which consists of our First Lien Credit Facility and Second Lien Credit Facility, approximated carrying value of $703.5 million. At March 31, 2017, the carrying value of outstanding borrowings under our First Lien Credit Facility, which bears interest at variable interest rates, approximated estimated fair value. The estimated fair value of our Second Lien Credit Facility was based upon the market approach and calculated using yields of our Second Lien Credit Facility as provided by financial institutions and thus were categorized as Level 3 values. |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Operating Segment Information | NOTE 10 – OPERATING SEGMENT INFORMATION Our operations include two reportable operating segments: gas and oil production and Drilling Partnership management. The Drilling Partnership management segment includes all of our managing and operating activities specific to the Drilling Partnerships including well construction and completion, administration and oversight, well services, and gathering and processing. These operating segments reflect the way we manage our operations and make business decisions. We previously presented three reportable operating segments; however, due to the decline in investor capital funds raised in recent years, anticipated lower levels of future investor capital fund raise, and the consolidation of certain historical Drilling Partnerships in 2016, we aggregated our well construction and completion segment with our other partnership management segment to report all of our Drilling Partnership management activities in one combined segment as they do not meet the quantitative threshold for reporting individual segment information. As a result of this change, we have restated our prior year condensed consolidated statements of operations and segment footnote disclosures to conform to our current presentation. Operating segment data for the periods indicated were as follows (in thousands): Successor Predecessor Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 2016 Gas and oil production: (1) Gas and oil production revenues $ 100,086 $ 94,612 Gas and oil production costs (29,987 ) (35,842 ) Depreciation, depletion and amortization (16,013 ) (26,580 ) Segment income $ 54,086 $ 32,190 Drilling partnership management: (2) Drilling partnership management revenues $ 10,050 $ 8,596 Drilling partnership management expenses (8,171 ) (6,283 ) Depreciation, depletion and amortization (479 ) (3,465 ) Segment income (loss) $ 1,400 $ (1,152 ) Reconciliation of segment income (loss) to net loss: Segment income (loss): Gas and oil production $ 54,086 $ 32,190 Drilling partnership management (2) 1,400 (1,152 ) Total segment income (loss) 55,486 31,038 General and administrative expenses (3) (13,758 ) (17,077 ) Interest expense (3) (13,985 ) (27,705 ) Gain on early extinguishment of debt (3) — 26,498 Other income (loss) (3) (654 ) 9 Income tax (provision) benefit (3) (180 ) — Net income $ 26,909 $ 12,763 Reconciliation of segment revenues to total revenues: Gas and oil production $ 100,086 $ 94,612 Drilling partnership management 10,050 8,596 Total revenues $ 110,136 $ 103,208 Capital expenditures: Gas and oil production $ 9,913 $ 11,945 Drilling partnership management 420 1,134 Corporate and other 111 91 Total capital expenditures $ 10,444 $ 13,170 (1) Includes gain on mark-to-market derivatives.

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding interim financial reporting and include all adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of our consolidated results of operations, financial condition and cash flows for the periods shown, including normal, recurring accruals and other items. The consolidated results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. For a more complete discussion of our accounting policies and certain other information, refer to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016. In connection with the Chapter 11 Filings, we were subject to the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 852 Reorganizations Upon emergence from bankruptcy on the Plan Effective Date, we adopted fresh-start accounting in accordance with ASC 852. Upon adoption of fresh-start accounting, our assets and liabilities were recorded at their fair values as of the Plan Effective Date, which differed materially from the recorded values of ARP’s assets and liabilities. As a result, our condensed consolidated statement of operations subsequent to the Plan Effective Date is not comparable to ARP’s condensed consolidated statement of operations prior to the Plan Effective Date. Our condensed consolidated financial statements and related footnotes are presented with a black line division which delineates the lack of comparability between amounts presented on or after the Plan Effective Date and dates prior. Our financial results for future periods following the application of fresh-start accounting will be different from historical trends and the differences may be material. References to “Successor” relate to the Company on and subsequent to the Plan Effective Date. References to “Predecessor” refer to the Company prior to the Plan Effective Date. The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Successor have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and contemplate the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. |
Reclassifications | Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to our condensed consolidated financial statements for the prior year periods to conform to classifications used in the current year, specifically related to our segment information on the condensed consolidated statement of operations and segment footnote disclosures. See Note 10 for additional information. |
Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation Our condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. Transactions between us and other ATLS managed operations have been identified in the condensed consolidated financial statements as transactions between affiliates, where applicable. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated. In accordance with established practice in the oil and gas industry, our condensed consolidated financial statements include our pro-rata share of assets, liabilities, income and lease operating and general and administrative costs and expenses of the Drilling Partnerships in which we have an interest. Such interests generally approximate 10-30%. Our condensed consolidated financial statements do not include proportional consolidation of the depletion or impairment expenses of the Drilling Partnerships. Rather, we calculate these items specific to our own economics. |
Liquidity and Capital Resources | Liquidity and Capital Resources Our Predecessor had historically funded its operations, acquisitions and cash distributions primarily through cash flows generated from its operations, amounts available under its credit facilities and equity and debt offerings. Since the Plan Effective Date, we have funded our operations through cash flows generated from our operations. Our future cash flows are subject to a number of variables, including oil and natural gas prices. Prices for oil and natural gas began to decline significantly during the fourth quarter of 2014 and have continued to decline and remain low in 2017. These lower commodity prices have negatively impacted our revenues, earnings and cash flows. Sustained low commodity prices could have a material and adverse effect on our liquidity position. In addition, challenges with our ability to raise capital through our Drilling Partnerships, either as a result of downturn in commodity prices or other difficulties affecting the fundraising channel, have negatively impacted our ability to remain in compliance with the covenants under our credit facilities. We were not in compliance with certain of the financial covenants under our credit facilities as of December 31, 2016, as well as the requirement to deliver audited financial statements without a going concern qualification. As a result of the amendment referenced below, our financial covenants will not be tested again until the quarter ending December 31, 2017. We do not currently have sufficient liquidity to repay all of our outstanding indebtedness, and as a result, there is substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. We have classified $701.6 million of outstanding indebtedness under our credit facilities, which is net of $1.9 million of deferred financing costs, as current portion of long term debt, net within our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2017, based on the occurrence of the event of default, the lenders under our credit facilities, as applicable, could elect to declare all amounts outstanding immediately due and payable and the lenders could terminate all commitments to extend further credit. On April 19, 2017, we entered into an amendment to our First Lien Credit Facility in an attempt to ameliorate some of our liquidity concerns. The amendment provides for, among other things, waivers of our non-compliance, increases in certain financial covenant ratios and scheduled decreases in our borrowing base (refer to Note 4 – Debt for further information regarding the specific amended terms and provisions). In addition, we expect that we will sell a significant amount of non-core assets in the near future to comply with the requirements of our First Lien Credit Facility amendment and to attempt to enhance our liquidity. In addition to the amendments to the financial ratio covenants, the First Lien Credit Facility lenders waived certain defaults by us with respect to the fourth quarter of 2016, including compliance with the ratios of Total Debt to EBITDA and First Lien Debt to EBITDA, as well as our obligation to deliver financial statements without a “going concern” qualification. The First Lien Credit Facility lenders’ waivers are subject to revocation in certain circumstances, including the exercise of remedies by junior lenders (including pursuant to our Second Lien Credit Facility), the failure to extend the standstill period under the intercreditor agreement at least 15 business days prior to its expiration, and the occurrence of additional events of default under the First Lien Credit Facility. Even following this amendment, we continue to face liquidity issues and are currently considering, and are likely to make, changes to our capital structure to maintain sufficient liquidity, meet our debt obligations and manage and strengthen our balance sheet. On April 21, 2017, the lenders under the our Second Lien Credit Facility delivered a notice of events of default and reservation of rights, pursuant to which they noticed events of default related to financial covenants and the failure to deliver financial statements without a “going concern” qualification. The delivery of such notice began the 180-day standstill period under the intercreditor agreement, during which the lenders under the Second Lien Credit Facility are prevented from pursuing remedies against the collateral securing our obligations under the Second Lien Credit Facility. The lenders have not accelerated the payment of amounts outstanding under the Second Lien Credit Facility. We continually monitor the capital markets and our capital structure and may make changes to our capital structure from time to time, with the goal of maintaining financial flexibility, preserving or improving liquidity, strengthening our balance sheet and meeting our debt service obligations. We could pursue options such as refinancing, restructuring or reorganizing our indebtedness or capital structure or seek to raise additional capital through debt or equity financing to address our liquidity concerns and high debt levels. We are evaluating various options, but there is no certainty that we will be able to implement any such options, and we cannot provide any assurances that any refinancing or changes in our debt or equity capital structure would be possible or that additional equity or debt financing could be obtained on acceptable terms, if at all, and such options may result in a wide range of outcomes for our stakeholders. In addition, we expect that we will sell a significant amount of non-core assets in the near future to comply with the requirements of our First Lien Credit Facility amendment and to attempt to enhance our liquidity. We cannot assure you that we would be able to implement the above actions, if necessary, on commercially reasonable terms, or at all, in a manner that would be permitted under the terms of our debt instruments or in a manner that does not negatively impact the price of our securities. Additionally, there can be no assurance that the above actions would allow us to meet our debt obligations and capital requirements. |
Appalachia Divestiture | Appalachia Divestiture On May 4, 2017, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell our conventional Appalachia and Marcellus assets to Diversified Gas & Oil, PLC, for $84.2 million. The transaction includes the sale of approximately 8,400 oil and gas wells across Pennsylvania, Ohio, Tennessee, New York and West Virginia, along with the associated infrastructure (the “Appalachian Assets”). In 2016, the Appalachian Assets generated approximately 30 MMcfepd of net production (92% gas, 8% liquids). We will retain our Utica Shale position, Indiana assets and West Virginia CBM assets in the region. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, has an effective date of April 1, 2017 and is expected to close in June 2017. The net proceeds will be used to repay a portion of outstanding borrowings under our First Lien Credit Facility. The transaction will significantly improve our First Lien Credit Facility metrics and is expected to fulfill our borrowing base step down to $360 million, which is scheduled to occur on August 31, 2017. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities that exist at the date of our condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and costs and expenses during the reporting periods. Our condensed consolidated financial statements are based on a number of significant estimates, including revenue and expense accruals, depletion of gas and oil properties and fair value of derivative instruments. The oil and gas industry principally conducts its business by processing actual transactions as many as 60 days after the month of delivery. Consequently, the most recent two months’ financial results were recorded using estimated volumes and contract market prices. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes Our effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was 0.6%, which represents our expected Texas Franchise Tax liability. Our income tax provision differs from the provision computed by applying the U.S. Federal statutory corporate income tax rate of 35% primarily due to the valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets. |
Successor’s Net Income Attributable to Common Shareholders Per Share | Successor’s Net Income Attributable to Common Shareholders Per Share Our Successor’s basic net income attributable to common shareholders per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to our common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, excluding any unvested restricted shares, for the period. Our Successor’s diluted net income attributable to common shareholders per share is similarly calculated except that the common shares outstanding for the period are increased using the treasury stock method to reflect the potential dilution that could occur if outstanding share based awards were vested at the end of the applicable period. Anti-dilutive shares represent potentially dilutive securities that are excluded from the computation of diluted net income attributable to common shareholders per share as their impact would be anti-dilutive. The following table is a reconciliation of our Successor’s basic and diluted weighted average number of common shares used to calculate basic and diluted net income attributable to common shareholders per share Successor Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 Weighted average number of common shares - basic (1) 5,170 Add dilutive effect of share based awards at end of period 316 Weighted average number of common shares - diluted 5,486 (1) For the period presented, 278,000 restricted common shares outstanding were excluded from the basic weighted average number of common shares because they were not vested. |

As our Predecessor’s Class D and Class E preferred units were convertible only upon a change of control event, they were not considered dilutive securities for earnings per unit purposes. |
Recently Issued Accounting Standards | Recently Issued Accounting Standards In February 2016, the FASB updated the accounting guidance related to leases. The updated accounting guidance requires lessees to recognize a lease asset and liability at the commencement date of all leases (with the exception of short-term leases), initially measured at the present value of the lease payments. The updated guidance is effective for us as of January 1, 2019 and requires a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest period presented. We are currently in the process of determining the impact that the updated accounting guidance will have on our condensed consolidated financial statements. In May 2014, the FASB updated the accounting guidance related to revenue recognition. The updated accounting guidance provides a single, contract-based revenue recognition model to help improve financial reporting by providing clearer guidance on when an entity should recognize revenue, and by reducing the number of standards to which an entity has to refer. In July 2015, the FASB voted to defer the effective date by one year to December 15, 2017 for annual reporting periods beginning after that date. The updated accounting guidance provides companies with alternative methods of adoption. We are evaluating the impact of this updated accounting guidance on our condensed consolidated financial statements, and based on the continuing evaluation of our revenue streams, this accounting guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our net income (loss). This accounting guidance will require that our revenue recognition policy disclosures include further detail regarding our performance obligations as to the nature, amount, timing, and estimates of revenue and cash flows generated from our contracts with customers. We are still in the process of determining whether or not we will use the retrospective method or the modified retrospective approach to implementation. |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Operating Segment Data | Our operations include two reportable operating segments: gas and oil production and Drilling Partnership management. The Drilling Partnership management segment includes all of our managing and operating activities specific to the Drilling Partnerships including well construction and completion, administration and oversight, well services, and gathering and processing. These operating segments reflect the way we manage our operations and make business decisions. We previously presented three reportable operating segments; however, due to the decline in investor capital funds raised in recent years, anticipated lower levels of future investor capital fund raise, and the consolidation of certain historical Drilling Partnerships in 2016, we aggregated our well construction and completion segment with our other partnership management segment to report all of our Drilling Partnership management activities in one combined segment as they do not meet the quantitative threshold for reporting individual segment information. As a result of this change, we have restated our prior year condensed consolidated statements of operations and segment footnote disclosures to conform to our current presentation. Operating segment data for the periods indicated were as follows (in thousands): Successor Predecessor Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 2016 Gas and oil production: (1) Gas and oil production revenues $ 100,086 $ 94,612 Gas and oil production costs (29,987 ) (35,842 ) Depreciation, depletion and amortization (16,013 ) (26,580 ) Segment income $ 54,086 $ 32,190 Drilling partnership management: (2) Drilling partnership management revenues $ 10,050 $ 8,596 Drilling partnership management expenses (8,171 ) (6,283 ) Depreciation, depletion and amortization (479 ) (3,465 ) Segment income (loss) $ 1,400 $ (1,152 ) Reconciliation of segment income (loss) to net loss: Segment income (loss): Gas and oil production $ 54,086 $ 32,190 Drilling partnership management (2) 1,400 (1,152 ) Total segment income (loss) 55,486 31,038 General and administrative expenses (3) (13,758 ) (17,077 ) Interest expense (3) (13,985 ) (27,705 ) Gain on early extinguishment of debt (3) — 26,498 Other income (loss) (3) (654 ) 9 Income tax (provision) benefit (3) (180 ) — Net income $ 26,909 $ 12,763 Reconciliation of segment revenues to total revenues: Gas and oil production $ 100,086 $ 94,612 Drilling partnership management 10,050 8,596 Total revenues $ 110,136 $ 103,208 Capital expenditures: Gas and oil production $ 9,913 $ 11,945 Drilling partnership management 420 1,134 Corporate and other 111 91 Total capital expenditures $ 10,444 $ 13,170 (1) Includes gain on mark-to-market derivatives.

Substantial Doubt about Going Concern, Conditions or Events | We were not in compliance with certain of the financial covenants under our credit facilities as of December 31, 2016, as well as the requirement to deliver audited financial statements without a going concern qualification. As a result of the amendment referenced below, our financial covenants will not be tested again until the quarter ending December 31, 2017. We do not currently have sufficient liquidity to repay all of our outstanding indebtedness, and as a result, there is substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. We have classified $701.6 million of outstanding indebtedness under our credit facilities, which is net of $1.9 million of deferred financing costs, as current portion of long term debt, net within our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2017, based on the occurrence of the event of default, the lenders under our credit facilities, as applicable, could elect to declare all amounts outstanding immediately due and payable and the lenders could terminate all commitments to extend further credit. | |||
