Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Organization, Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Note 1 – Organization, Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies International Western Petroleum, Inc. (“IWP” or the “Company”) was incorporated on February 19, 2014, as a Nevada corporation. The Company was formed to conduct exploration, development and production operations in the oil and gas industry. The accompanying unaudited interim 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 and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the year ended February 28, 2017. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the unaudited interim financial statements that would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited financial statements for the most recent fiscal year as reported in the Form 10-K have been omitted. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 expense during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The carrying amount of the Company’s accounts payable and accrued expenses and advances from officer approximates its estimated fair value due to the short-term nature of that financial instrument. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had $557,302 and $76,365 of cash and cash equivalents at August 31, 2017 and February 28, 2017, respectively. Concentrations of Credit Risk Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk include cash deposits placed with financial institutions. The Company maintains its cash in bank accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits as guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). At August 31, 2017, $307,302 of the Company’s cash balances were uninsured. The Company has not experienced any losses on such accounts. Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable typically consist of oil and gas receivables. The Company has classified these as short-term assets in the balance sheet because the Company expects repayment or recovery within the next 12 months. The Company evaluates these accounts receivable for collectability considering the results of operations of these related entities and when necessary records allowances for expected unrecoverable amounts. To date, no allowances have been recorded. Oil & Gas Properties The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for its investments in oil and gas properties, whereby all costs incurred in connection with the acquisition, exploration for and development of petroleum and natural gas reserves, including unproductive wells, are capitalized. Such costs include lease acquisition, geological and geophysical activities, rentals on non-producing leases, drilling, completing and equipping of oil and gas wells and administrative costs directly attributable to those activities, and asset retirement costs. General and administrative costs related to production and general overhead are expensed as incurred. Disposition of oil and gas properties are accounted for as a reduction of capitalized costs, with no gain or loss recognized unless such adjustment would significantly alter the relationship between capital costs and proved reserves of oil, in which case the gain or loss is recognized in the statement of operations. Future development, site restoration, dismantlement and abandonment costs, are estimated property by property, based upon current economic conditions and regulatory requirements, and are included in amortization of our oil and natural gas property costs. Depletion of capitalized oil properties and estimated future development costs, excluding unproved properties, are based on the unit-of-production method based on proved reserves. At the end of each quarter, the unamortized cost of oil and natural gas properties, net of related deferred income taxes, is limited to the sum of the estimated future after-tax net revenues from proved properties, after giving effect to cash flow hedge positions, discounted at 10%, and the lower of cost or fair value of unproved properties, adjusted for related income tax effects. This limitation is known as the “ceiling test,” and is based on SEC rules for the full cost oil and gas accounting method. There was no ceiling test write-down recorded during the three and six months ended August 31, 2017 and 2016. The Company assesses the carrying value of its unproved properties for impairment periodically. If the results of an assessment indicate that an unproved property is impaired (which was assessed in connection with the Company’s evaluation of goodwill impairment), then the carrying value of the unproved properties is added to the proved oil property costs to be amortized and subject to the ceiling test. Fixed asset Fixed asset is stated at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the five-year estimated useful life of the asset. Asset Retirement Obligations If a reasonable estimate of the fair value of an obligation to perform site reclamation, dismantle facilities or plug and abandon wells can be made, the Company will record a liability (an asset retirement obligation or “ARO”) on its consolidated balance sheet and capitalize the present value of the asset retirement cost in oil and gas properties in the period in which the retirement obligation is incurred. In general, the amount of an ARO and the costs capitalized will be equal to the estimated future cost to satisfy the abandonment obligation assuming the normal operation of the asset, using current prices that are escalated by an assumed inflation factor up to the estimated settlement date, which is then discounted back to the date that the abandonment obligation was incurred using an assumed cost of funds for the Company. After recording these amounts, the ARO will be accreted to its future estimated value using the same assumed cost of funds and the capitalized costs are depreciated on a unit-of-production basis over the estimated proved developed reserves. Both the accretion and the depreciation will be included in depreciation, depletion and amortization expense on our consolidated statements of operations. Revenue Recognition All revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service or sale is complete, the price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. Revenue is derived from the sale of crude oil and natural gas. Revenue from crude oil and natural gas sales is recognized when the product is delivered to the purchaser and collectability is reasonably assured. The Company follows the “sales method” of accounting for oil and natural gas revenue, so it recognizes revenue on all natural gas or crude oil sold to purchasers, regardless of whether the sales are proportionate to its ownership in the property. A receivable or liability is recognized only to the extent that the Company has an imbalance on a specific property greater than its share of the expected remaining proved reserves. If collection is uncertain, revenue is recognized when cash is collected. Income Taxes Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic No. 740. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized. Stock-Based Compensation The Company measures stock-based compensation cost at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and recognize it as expense, over the vesting or service period, as applicable, of the stock award. Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Common Share Basic net loss per common share amounts are computed by dividing the net loss available to International Western Petroleum, Inc. shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding over the reporting period. In periods in which the Company reports a net loss, dilutive securities are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as the effect would be anti-dilutive. For the six months ended August 31, 2017 and 2016, there were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to amounts in prior periods to conform to the current period presentation. All reclassifications have been applied consistently to the periods presented. Subsequent Events The Company evaluated all transactions from August 31, 2017, through the financial statement issuance date for subsequent event disclosure consideration. Recent Accounting Pronouncements The Company does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. |

Going Concern | Note 2 – Going Concern As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has generated a net loss of $571,495 during the six months ended August 31, 2017, and had negative cash flows of $388,743 from its operations for the same period. Revenues generated by the Company from oil and gas sales currently have not reached a level that allows the Company to support its ongoing business. The Company remains dependent upon funding from non-operating sources, principally related parties and the sale of common equity securities. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Management has a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The Company will be required to raise additional funds to fully execute its business plan; however, the Company believes it has sufficient cash on hand and limited near term obligations to sustain its current operations for the next twelve months. |

The Company follows the “sales method” of accounting for oil and natural gas revenue, so it recognizes revenue on all natural gas or crude oil sold to purchasers, regardless of whether the sales are proportionate to its ownership in the property. A receivable or liability is recognized only to the extent that the Company has an imbalance on a specific property greater than its share of the expected remaining proved reserves. If collection is uncertain, revenue is recognized when cash is collected. |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic No. 740. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized. |
Stock-Based Compensation | Stock-Based Compensation The Company measures stock-based compensation cost at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and recognize it as expense, over the vesting or service period, as applicable, of the stock award. |
Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share | Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Common Share Basic net loss per common share amounts are computed by dividing the net loss available to International Western Petroleum, Inc. shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding over the reporting period. In periods in which the Company reports a net loss, dilutive securities are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as the effect would be anti-dilutive. For the six months ended August 31, 2017 and 2016, there were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding. |
Reclassifications | Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to amounts in prior periods to conform to the current period presentation. All reclassifications have been applied consistently to the periods presented. |
Subsequent Events | Subsequent Events The Company evaluated all transactions from August 31, 2017, through the financial statement issuance date for subsequent event disclosure consideration. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements The Company does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. |
