Summary of Estimated Proved Oil and Natural Gas Reserve
The following table sets forth an analysis of the estimated quantities of net proved oil (including condensate), natural gas and NGL reserves, all of which are located onshore and offshore the continental United States. Estimated proved oil, natural gas and NGL reserves at December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 are prepared in accordance with the SEC’s rule, “Modernization of Oil and Gas Reporting,” using a historical 12-month average pricing assumption.

Summary of Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows
The following tables present the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows related to estimated proved oil, natural gas and NGL reserves together with changes therein, including a reduction for estimated plugging and abandonment costs that are also reflected as a liability on the balance sheet at December 31, 2015. You should not assume that the future net cash flows or the discounted future net cash flows, referred to in the tables below, represent the fair value of our estimated oil, natural gas and NGL reserves. Prices are based on either the historical 12-month average price based on closing prices on the first day of each month, or prices defined by existing contractual arrangements. The 2015 average historical 12-month oil and natural gas prices, net of applicable differentials, were $51.16 per Bbl of oil, $16.40 per Bbl of NGLs and $2.19 per Mcf of natural gas. The 2014 average 12-month oil and natural gas prices, net of applicable differentials, were $89.46 per Bbl of oil, $36.79 per Bbl of NGLs and $3.68 per Mcf of natural gas. The 2013 average 12-month oil and natural gas prices, net of applicable differentials, were $102.21 per Bbl of oil, $37.59 per Bbl of NGLs and $3.66 per Mcf of natural gas. Future production and development costs are based on current costs with no escalations. Estimated future cash flows net of future income taxes have been discounted to their present values based on a 10% annual discount rate.
