Reconciliations for Change in Net Fair Value of Derivative Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis Using Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) The table below presents reconciliations for the change in net fair value of derivative assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.  The fair values of Level 3 derivative instruments were estimated using proprietary valuation models that utilized both market observable and unobservable parameters.  Level 3 instruments presented in the table consisted of net derivatives valued using pricing models incorporating assumptions that, in the Company’s judgment, reflected reasonable assumptions a marketplace participant would have used as of March 31, 2018. Commodity derivatives previously presented as Level 3 were transferred to Level 2 in the second quarter of 2018 as the Company moved from using proprietary volatility inputs and forward curves to more widely available published information, increasing market observability.
