21. Supplemental Oil and Gas Disclosures—UNAUDITED
Geographic Area of Operation
All of our proved reserves are located within the United States, with a majority of those reserves located in the Gulf of Mexico and a minority located in Texas. Therefore, the following disclosures about our costs incurred, results of operations and proved reserves are on a total-company basis.

Costs Not Subject To Amortization
Costs not subject to amortization relate to unproved properties which are excluded from amortizable capital costs until it is determined that proved reserves can be assigned to such properties or until such time as the Company has made an evaluation that impairment has occurred. Subject to industry conditions, evaluation of most of these properties is expected to be completed within one to five years. The following table provides a summary of costs that are not being amortized as of December 31, 2013, by the year in which the costs were incurred (in millions):

Oil and Natural Gas Reserve Information
There are numerous uncertainties in estimating quantities of proved reserves and in providing the future rates of production and timing of development expenditures. The following reserve information represent estimates only and are inherently imprecise and may be subject to substantial revisions as additional information such as reservoir performance, additional drilling, technological advancements and other factors become available. Decreases in the prices of oil, NGLs and natural gas could have an adverse effect on the carrying value of our proved reserves, reserve volumes and our revenues, profitability and cash flow. We are not the operator with respect to approximately 9% of our proved developed non-producing reserves, so we may not be in a position to control the timing of all development activities.
The following sets forth estimated quantities of our net proved, proved developed and proved undeveloped oil, NGLs and natural gas reserves. All of the reserves are located in the Unites States and the majority of the reserves are located in the Gulf of Mexico. These reserve estimates exclude insignificant royalties and interests owned by the Company due to the unavailability of such information. Estimated reserves for the periods presented are based on the unweighted average of first-day-of-the-month commodity prices over the period January through December for the year in accordance with definitions and guidelines set forth by the SEC and the FASB.

The conversion to barrels of oil equivalent and cubic feet equivalent were determined using the energy-equivalent ratio of six Mcf of natural gas to one Bbl of crude oil, condensate or NGLs (totals may not compute due to rounding). The energy-equivalent ratio does not assume price equivalency, and the energy-equivalent prices for oil, NGLs and natural gas may differ significantly. |
(2) |
Includes revision of 6.3 Bcfe due to an increase in average prices; 16.5 Bcfe for a change in NGLs marketing arrangements; 11.3 Bcfe increase due to additional compression at our Tahoe field that increases production and ultimate recoveries; and 10.6 Bcfe at our Fairway field for revisions to reserve estimates from the acquisition date to year end. |
(3) |
Includes discoveries of 13.9 Bcfe at our Main Pass 98 field and 8.0 Bcfe at our Ship Shoal 349/359 field and extensions of 3.7 Bcfe at our Main Pass 108 field. |
(4) |
Primarily due to the acquisition of the Opal Properties and the Fairway Properties. |
(5) |
Includes downward revisions due to price of 8.0 Bcfe and negative performance revisions of 17.9 Bcfe at our Spraberry field. |
(6) |
Includes extensions and discoveries of 69.5 Bcfe at our Spraberry field and extensions and discoveries of 16.2 Bcfe at our High Island 21/22 field. |
(7) |
Due to the acquisition of the Newfield Properties. |
(8) |
Due to the sale of our interest in the South Timbalier 41 field. |
(9) |
Includes upward revision due to price of 11.3 Bcfe; negative revisions of 29.6 Bcfe at our Spraberry field for performance and technical changes, 13.9 Bcfe at our High Island 21/22 field for performance, 7.9 Bcfe at our Ship Shoal 349/359 field for performance; and positive performance revisions of 4.3 Bcfe at our Main Pass 98 field, 4.0 Bcfe at our South Timbalier 314, 3.5 Bcfe at our Main Pass 108 field and 3.2 at our South Timbalier 176 field. |
(10) |
Includes extensions and discoveries of 75.4 Bcfe at our Spraberry field, 25.3 Bcfe at our Ship Shoal 349/359 field and 11.5 Bcfe at our Mississippi Canyon 698 field. |
(11) |
Primarily due to the acquisition of the Callon Properties. |
(12) |
Primarily due to the sales of our non-working interests in the Green Canyon 60 field, the Green Canyon 19 field and the West Delta area block 29. |
Volume measurements: |
|
|
Mcf – thousand cubic feet |
|
Bbl - barrel |
Bcf – billion cubic feet |
|
MMBbls - million barrels for crude oil, condensate or NGLs |
Bcfe – billion cubic feet equivalent |
|
MMBoe – million barrels of oil equivalent |
Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows
The following presents the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows related to our proved oil and natural gas reserves together with changes therein. Future cash inflows represent expected revenues from production of period-end quantities of proved reserves based on the unweighted average of first-day-of-the-month commodity prices for the periods presented. All prices are adjusted by field for quality, transportation fees, energy content and regional price differentials. Due to the lack of a benchmark price for NGLs, a ratio is computed for each field of the NGLs realized price compared to the oil realized price. Then, this ratio is applied to the oil price using FASB/SEC guidance. The average commodity prices weighted by field production related to the proved reserves are as follows:

Future production, development costs and ARO are based on costs in effect at the end of each of the respective years with no escalations. Estimated future net cash flows, net of future income taxes, have been discounted to their present values based on a 10% annual discount rate.
The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows does not purport, nor should it be interpreted, to present the fair market value of our oil and natural gas reserves. These estimates reflect proved reserves only and ignore, among other things, future changes in prices and costs, revenues that could result from probable reserves which could become proved reserves in 2014 or later years and the risks inherent in reserve estimates. The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows relating to our proved oil and natural gas reserves is as follows (in millions):
