For further information regarding the fair value measurement of derivative instruments see Note 15. See Note 1 for discussion of the types of derivatives we use and the reasons for them. All of our interest rate and commodity derivatives are subject to enforceable master netting arrangements or similar agreements under which we may report net amounts. The following tables present the gross fair values of derivative instruments and the reported net amounts along with where they appear on the consolidated balance sheets.

The table above reflects foreign currency forwards that hedged the current Norwegian tax liability of our Norway business, which was reported as discontinued operations. The open positions were transferred to the purchaser of our Norway business upon closing of the sale in the fourth quarter of 2014.
 Derivatives Not Designated as Hedges
During 2015, we entered into multiple crude oil derivatives indexed to NYMEX WTI related to a portion of our forecasted North America E&P sales through December 2016. These commodity derivatives consist of three-way collars, extendable three-way collars and call options. Three way-collars consist of a sold call (ceiling), a purchased put (floor) and a sold put. The ceiling price is the maximum we will receive for the contract crude oil volumes, the floor is the minimum price we will receive, unless the market price falls below the sold put strike price. In this case, we receive the NYMEX WTI price plus the difference between the floor and the sold put price. These commodity derivatives are shown in the table below:

Counterparty has the option, exercisable on June 30, 2016, to extend these collars through the remainder of 2016 at the same volume and weighted average price as the underlying three-way collars.
(c) 
Call options settle monthly.
The impact of these crude oil derivative instruments appears in sales and other operating revenues in our consolidated statements of income and was a net gain of $128 million year to date December 31, 2015. There were no crude oil derivative instruments during 2014.
On June 1, 2015, we entered into Treasury rate locks, which expired on the same day, to hedge against timing differences as it related to our Notes offering (see Note 17). Following the execution of the Treasury locks, corresponding interest rates increased during the day of June 1. As a result, the settlement of the Treasury rate locks resulted in a gain of $6 million, which was recognized in net interest and other in our consolidated statements of income.
