CONCENTRATIONS
CONCENTRATIONS:
Sales to Major Customers
Our production is sold on month-to-month contracts at prevailing prices. We obtain credit protections, such as parental guarantees, from certain of our purchasers. The following table identifies customers from whom we derived 10% or more of our total oil and natural gas revenue during the indicated periods:

The maximum amount of credit risk exposure at December 31, 2016 relating to these customers was $27,736.
We believe that the loss of any of these purchasers would not result in a material adverse effect on our ability to market future oil and natural gas production.
Production and Reserve Volumes – Unaudited
Approximately 66% of our estimated proved reserve volumes at December 31, 2016 and 65% of our production during 2016 were associated with our GOM deep water, conventional shelf and deep gas properties. Approximately 34% of our estimated proved reserve volumes at December 31, 2016 and 35% of our production during 2016 were associated with the Appalachia Properties.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
A substantial portion of our cash balances are not federally insured.
