Our revenue is primarily generated from our interests in the Delhi field in Northeast Louisiana and our interests in the Hamilton Dome field in Wyoming. Additionally, an overriding royalty interest retained in a past divestiture of Texas properties provided de minimis revenue:

We are a non-operator and presently do not take production in kind and do not negotiate contracts with customers. We recognize crude oil, natural gas liquids, and natural gas production revenue at the point in time when custody and title (“control”) of the product transfers to the customer. Transfer of control drives the presentation of post-production expenses such as transportation, gathering, and processing deductions within the accompanying statements of operations. Fees and other deductions incurred prior to control transfer are recorded within the lease operating costs line item on the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed statements of operations, while fees and other deductions incurred subsequent to control transfer are embedded in the price and effectively recorded as a reduction of crude oil, natural gas liquids, and natural gas production revenue.
Judgments made in applying the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, relate primarily to determining the point in time when control of product transfers to the customer. The Company does not believe that significant judgments are required with respect to the determination of the transaction price, including amounts that represent variable consideration, as volume and price carry a low level of estimation uncertainty given the
precision of volumetric measurements and the use of index pricing with predictable differentials. Accordingly, the Company does not consider estimates of variable consideration to be constrained.
The Company’s contractual performance obligations arise upon the production of hydrocarbons from wells in which the Company has an ownership interest. The performance obligations are considered satisfied at a point in time upon control transferring to a customer at a specified delivery point. Consideration is allocated to completed performance obligations at the end of an accounting period.
Revenue is recorded in the month when contractual performance obligations are satisfied. However, settlement statements from the purchasers of hydrocarbons and the related cash consideration are received one to two months after production has occurred, which is typical in the industry. As a result, the Company must estimate the amount of production delivered to the customer and the consideration that will ultimately be received for the sale of the product. Estimated revenue due to the Company is recorded within the receivables line item on the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed balance sheets until payment is received. The accounts receivable balances from contracts with customers are presented on the line "Receivables from oil and gas sales" on the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed balance sheets. As of September 30, 2020 and June 30, 2020, accounts receivables from oil and gas sales were $2.1 million and $1.9 million, respectively. To estimate accounts receivable from operator contracts with customers, the Company uses knowledge of its properties, historical performance, contractual arrangements, index pricing, quality and transportation differentials, and other factors as the basis for these estimates. Differences between estimates and actual amounts received for product sales are recorded in the month that payment is received from the purchaser. Revenue recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2020, related to performance obligations satisfied in prior reporting periods, was immaterial.
