Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
The accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for future periods.

The Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2019 has been derived from the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements at that date but does not include all the notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2019 included in CNX Resources Corporation's ("CNX," "CNX Resources," the "Company," "we," "us," or "our") Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on February 10, 2020.

On September 28, 2020, the Merger (as defined in Note 13 – Acquisitions and Dispositions) of CNX Midstream Partners LP (CNXM) was completed. Prior to the Merger, public unitholders held a 46.9% equity interest in CNXM and CNX owned the remaining 53.1% equity interest. The earnings of CNXM that were attributed to its common units held by the public prior to the Merger are reflected in net income attributable to noncontrolling interest in the Consolidated Statements of Income. There were no changes in our ownership interest in CNXM during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Certain amounts in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Receivables

On January 1, 2020, CNX adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-13 Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The measurement of expected credit losses is based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. CNX adopted Topic 326 using the prospective transition method.

Prior to adopting Topic 326, CNX reserved for specific accounts receivable when it was probable that all or a part of an outstanding balance would not be collected, such as customer bankruptcies. Collectability was determined based on terms of sale, credit status of customers and various other circumstances. CNX regularly reviewed collectability and established or adjusted the allowance as necessary using the specific identification method. Account balances were charged off against the
allowance after all means of collection had been exhausted and the potential for recovery was considered remote. Reserves for uncollectable amounts were not material in the periods presented.
Under Topic 326, management records an allowance for credit losses related to the collectability of third-party customers' receivables using the historical aging of the customer receivable balance. The collectability is determined based on past events, including historical experience, customer credit rating, as well as current market conditions. CNX monitors customer ratings and collectability on an on-going basis. Account balances will be charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.

As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, Accounts Receivable - Trade were $76,007 and $133,480, respectively, and Other Receivables were $9,167 and $16,142, respectively. The following represents the rollforward of the allowance for credit losses for the nine months ended:
