Commitments and Contingencies [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	3. Commitments and Contingencies Capital Commitments The Fund has entered into multiple agreements for the acquisition, drilling and development of its oil and gas properties. The estimated capital expenditures associated with these agreements vary depending on the stage of development on a property-by-property basis. As of June 30, 2015, the Fund had two properties, the Diller and Marmalard projects, for which additional development costs must be incurred. The Fund currently anticipates such development will include eight wells, with related platform and pipeline infrastructure.

As of June 30, 2015, the Fund's estimated capital commitments related to its oil and gas properties were $7.2 million (which include asset retirement obligations for the Fund's projects of $3.8 million), of which $2.0 million is expected to be spent during the next twelve months.

Insurance Coverage The Fund is subject to all risks inherent in the exploration for and development of oil and natural gas.

Capital Commitments

The Fund has entered into multiple agreements for the acquisition, drilling and development of its oil and gas properties. The estimated capital expenditures associated with these agreements vary depending on the stage of development on a property-by-property basis. As of June 30, 2015, the Fund had two properties, the Diller and Marmalard projects, for which additional development costs must be incurred. The Fund currently anticipates such development will include eight wells, with related platform and pipeline infrastructure. During the second quarter 2015, three wells in the Marmalard Project commenced production.

As of June 30, 2015, the Fund's estimated capital commitments related to its oil and gas properties were $7.2 million (which include asset retirement obligations for the Fund's projects of $3.8 million), of which $2.0 million is expected to be spent during the next twelve months.

Based upon its current cash position and its current reserve estimates, the Fund expects cash flow from operations to be sufficient to cover its commitments, as well as ongoing operations. Reserve estimates are projections based on engineering data that cannot be measured with precision, require substantial judgment, and are subject to frequent revision.

Environmental Considerations

The exploration for and development of oil and natural gas involves the extraction, production and transportation of materials which, under certain conditions, can be hazardous or cause environmental pollution problems. The Manager and operators of the Fund's properties are continually taking action they believe appropriate to satisfy applicable federal, state and local environmental regulations and do not currently anticipate that compliance with federal, state and local environmental regulations will have a material adverse effect upon capital expenditures, results of operations or the competitive position of the Fund in the oil and gas industry.

Insurance Coverage

The Fund is subject to all risks inherent in the exploration for and development of oil and natural gas. Insurance coverage as is customary for entities engaged in similar operations is maintained, but losses may occur from uninsurable risks or amounts in excess of existing insurance coverage. The occurrence of an event that is not insured or not fully insured could have a material adverse impact upon earnings and financial position.
