Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation “Berry Corp.” refers to Berry Corporation (bry), a Delaware corporation, which is the sole member of each of its three Delaware limited liability company subsidiaries: (1) Berry Petroleum Company, LLC (“Berry LLC”), (2) CJ Berry Well Services Management, LLC (“C&J Management”) and (3) C&J Well Services, LLC (“C&J”), (C&J Management and C&J together, “CJWS”). As the context may require, the “Company”, “we”, “our” or similar words refer to Berry Corp. and its subsidiaries, Berry LLC, C&J Management and C&J. In July 2023, we executed an agreement to acquire Macpherson Energy Corporation and its subsidiaries, a privately held Kern County, California operator, and we closed the acquisition in September 2023 (“Macpherson Acquisition”). As of September 15, 2023, Berry LLC owns Macpherson Energy, LLC (formerly, known as Macpherson Energy Corporation) and its subsidiaries (“Macpherson Energy”). Nature of Business We are a western United States independent upstream energy company with a focus on onshore, low geologic risk, long-lived oil and gas reserves. We operate in two business segments: (i) exploration and production (“E&P”) and (ii) well servicing and abandonment. Our E&P assets are located in California and the Rockies, characterized by high oil content and predominantly located in rural areas with low population. Our California assets are in the San Joaquin basin (100% oil), while our Rockies assets are in the Uinta basin of Utah (60% oil and 40% gas). We operate our well servicing and abandonment segment in California. Principles of Consolidation and Reporting The condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. In management’s opinion, the accompanying financial statements contain all normal, recurring adjustments that are necessary to fairly present our interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. We eliminated all significant intercompany transactions and balances upon consolidation. For oil and gas exploration and production joint ventures in which we have a direct working interest, we account for our proportionate share of assets, liabilities, revenue, expense and cash flows within the relevant lines of the financial statements. |

Debt Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Debt | Debt The following table summarizes our outstanding debt: September 30, December 31, Interest Rate Maturity Security (in thousands) 2021 RBL Facility $ 57,000 $ — variable rates 10.75% (2023) and 9.50% (2022) August 26, 2025 Mortgage on 90% of Present Value of proven oil and gas reserves and lien on certain other assets 2022 ABL Facility — — variable rates 9.75% (2023) and 8.3% (2022) June 5, 2025 CJWS property and certain other assets 2026 Notes 400,000 400,000 7.0% February 15, 2026 Unsecured Long-Term Debt - Principal Amount 457,000 400,000 Less: Debt Issuance Costs (3,333) (4,265) Long-Term Debt, net $ 453,667 $ 395,735 Deferred Financing Costs We incurred legal and bank fees related to the issuance of debt. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, debt issuance costs reported in “other noncurrent assets” on the balance sheet were approximately (i) $3 million and $4 million, respectively, net of amortization, for the Credit Agreement, dated as of August 26, 2021, among Berry Corp, as a guarantor, Berry LLC, as the borrower, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as the administrative agent and the other parties thereto (as amended, restated, modified or otherwise supplemented from time to time, the “2021 RBL Facility”) and (ii) an immaterial amount, net of amortization, for the Revolving Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of August 9, 2022, among C&J and C&J Management, as borrowers, and Tri Counties Bank, as lender (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “2022 ABL Facility”). At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, debt issuance costs, net of amortization, for the unsecured notes due February 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) reported in “Long-Term Debt, net” on the balance sheet was approximately $3 million and $4 million, respectively. For each of the three month periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the amortization expense for the 2021 RBL Facility, the 2022 ABL Facility and the 2026 Notes, combined, was approximately $1 million. For each of the nine month periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the amortization expense for the 2021 RBL Facility, the 2022 ABL Facility and the 2026 Notes, combined, was approximately $2 million. The amortization of debt issuance costs is presented in “interest expense” on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Fair Value Our debt is recorded at the carrying amount on the balance sheets. The carrying amounts of the 2021 RBL Facility and the 2022 ABL Facility approximate fair value because the interest rates are variable and reflect market rates. The 2021 RBL Facility and 2022 ABL Facility are Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the 2026 Notes was approximately $384 million and $369 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The 2026 Notes are Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. 2021 RBL Facility The borrowing base under the 2021 RBL Facility is redetermined semi-annually, and the borrowing base redeterminations generally become effective each May and November, although the borrower and the lenders may each make one interim redetermination between scheduled redeterminations. On May 10, 2023, Berry Corp, as a guarantor, and Berry LLC, as borrower, entered into the Fourth Amendment to Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) pursuant to which, among other things, the requisite lenders under the 2021 RBL Facility agreed to (i) maintain the aggregate elected commitment amounts at $200 million, (ii) decrease the borrowing base from $250 million to $200 million, which constituted a redetermination of the borrowing base that was scheduled to occur on or about May 1, 2023 pursuant to the terms of the Credit Facility, (iii) decrease the maximum consolidated leverage ratio by 0.25x to 2.75x for fiscal quarters ending June 30, 2023 and thereafter and (iv) amend the minimum hedging covenant to specify the floor price set forth in the Amendment but without any modification to the minimum volumes required to be hedged. As of September 30, 2023, the 2021 RBL Facility had a $500 million revolving commitment and the aforementioned $200 million borrowing base and aggregate elected commitment and a $20 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit (with borrowing availability being reduced by the face amount of any letters of credit issued under the subfacility). Availability under the 2021 RBL Facility may not exceed the lesser of the aggregate elected commitments or the borrowing base less outstanding advances and letters of credit. The 2021 RBL Facility matures on August 26, 2025, unless terminated earlier in accordance with the 2021 RBL Facility terms. The 2021 RBL Facility is available to us for general corporate purposes, including working capital. The outstanding borrowings under the 2021 RBL Facility bear interest at a rate equal to, at our option, either (a) a customary base rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 2.0% to 3.0% or (b) a term SOFR reference rate, plus an applicable margin ranging from 3.0% to 4.0%, in each case determined based on the utilization level under the 2021 RBL Facility. Interest rate on base borrowings is payable quarterly in arrears and is computed on the basis of a year of 365/366 days, and interest on term SOFR borrowings accrues in respect of interest periods of one three The 2021 RBL Facility requires us to maintain on a consolidated basis as of each quarter-end (i) a leverage ratio of not more than 2.75 to 1.0 and (ii) a current ratio of not less than 1.0 to 1.0. As of September 30, 2023, we were in compliance with all of the debt covenants. The 2021 RBL Facility also contains other customary affirmative and negative covenants, as well as events of default and remedies. If we do not comply with the financial and other covenants in the 2021 RBL Facility, the lenders may, subject to customary cure rights, require immediate payment of all amounts outstanding under the 2021 RBL Facility and terminate the commitments thereunder. As of September 30, 2023, we had $57 million borrowings outstanding, $10 million in letters of credit outstanding and approximately $133 million of available borrowing capacity under the 2021 RBL Facility. As of October 31, 2023, we reduced the borrowings to $49 million. 2022 ABL Facility Subject to satisfaction of customary conditions precedent to borrowing, as of September 30, 2023, C&J and C&J Management could borrow up to the lesser of (x) $15 million and (y) the borrowing base under the 2022 ABL Facility, with a letter of credit subfacility for the issuance of letters of credit in an aggregate amount not to exceed $7.5 million (with borrowing availability being reduced by the face amount of any letters of credit issued under the subfacility). The “borrowing base” is an amount equal to 80% of the balance due on eligible accounts receivable, subject to reserves that the lender may implement in its reasonable discretion. As of September 30, 2023, the borrowing base was $15 million. Interest on the outstanding principal amount of the revolving loans under the 2022 ABL Facility accrues at a per annum rate equal to 1.25% in excess of The Wall Street Journal Prime Rate. The “Wall Street Journal Prime Rate” is the variable rate of interest, on a per annum basis, which is announced and/or published in the “Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal from time to time as its “Prime Rate”. The rate will be redetermined whenever The Wall Street Journal Prime Rate changes. Interest is due quarterly, in arrears. The 2022 ABL Facility matures on June 5, 2025, unless terminated in accordance with the 2022 ABL Facility terms. The 2022 ABL Facility requires CJWS to comply with the following financial covenants (i) maintain on a consolidated basis a ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth of no greater than 1.5 to 1.0 at any time; (ii) reduce the amount of revolving advances outstanding under the 2022 ABL Facility to not more than 90% of the lesser of (a) the maximum revolving advance amount or (b) the borrowing base, as of the lender’s close of business on the last day of each fiscal quarter; and (iii) maintain net income before taxes of not less than $1.00 as of each fiscal year end. As of September 30, 2023, CJWS was in compliance with all of the debt covenants. The 2022 ABL Facility also contains other customary affirmative and negative covenants, as well as events of default and remedies. If CJWS does not comply with the financial and other covenants in the 2022 ABL Facility, the lender may, subject to customary cure rights, require immediate payment of all amounts outstanding under the 2022 ABL Facility and terminate the commitment thereunder. CJWS’s obligations under the 2022 ABL Facility are not guaranteed by Berry Corp. or Berry LLC and Berry Corp. and Berry LLC do not and are not required to provide any credit support for such obligations. In March 2023, we entered into the Amendment to Revolving Loan and Security Agreement (the “First Amendment”). The First Amendment, in addition to other changes described therein, amended the 2022 ABL Facility to substitute certain collateral. As of September 30, 2023, CJWS had no borrowings and $2 million letters of credit outstanding with $13 million of available borrowing capacity under the 2022 ABL Facility. Senior Unsecured Notes In February 2018, Berry LLC completed a private issuance of $400 million in aggregate principal amount of 7.0% senior unsecured notes due February 2026, which resulted in net proceeds to us of approximately $391 million after deducting expenses and the initial purchasers’ discount. The 2026 Notes are Berry LLC’s senior unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of our other senior indebtedness and senior to any of our subordinated indebtedness. The 2026 Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by Berry Corp. The indenture governing the 2026 Notes contains customary covenants and events of default (in some cases, subject to grace periods). We were in compliance with all covenants under the 2026 Notes as of September 30, 2023. Debt Repurchase Program In February 2020, the board of directors (the “Board of Directors” or the “Board”) adopted a program to spend up to $75 million for the opportunistic repurchase of our 2026 Notes. The manner, timing and amount of any purchases will be determined based on our evaluation of market conditions, compliance with outstanding agreements and other factors, may be commenced or suspended at any time without notice and do not obligate Berry Corp. to purchase the 2026 Notes during any period or at all. We have not yet repurchased any notes under this program. |

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Derivatives | Derivatives We utilize derivatives, such as swaps, puts, calls and collars, to hedge a portion of our forecasted oil and gas production and gas purchases to reduce exposure to fluctuations in oil and natural gas prices, which addresses our market risk. In addition to satisfying the oil hedging requirements of the 2021 RBL Facility, we target covering our operating expenses and a majority of our fixed charges, which includes capital needed to sustain production levels, as well as interest and fixed dividends as applicable, with the oil and gas sales hedges for a period of up to three years out. Additionally, we target fixing the price for a large portion of our natural gas purchases used in our steam operations for up to three years. We have also entered into Utah gas transportation contracts to help reduce the price fluctuation exposure, however these do not qualify as hedges. We also, from time to time, have entered into agreements to purchase a portion of the natural gas we require for our operations, which we do not record at fair value as derivatives because they qualify for normal purchases and normal sales exclusions. We had no such transactions in the periods presented. For fixed-price oil and gas sales swaps, we are the seller, so we make settlement payments for prices above the indicated weighted-average price per bbl and per mmbtu, respectively, and receive settlement payments for prices below the indicated weighted-average price per bbl and per mmbtu, respectively. For our sold call options, we would make settlement payments for prices above the indicated weighted-average price per barrel, net of any deferred premium. No payment would be made or received for prices below the indicated weighted-average price per barrel, other than any applicable deferred premium. For our purchased puts, we would receive settlement payments for prices below the indicated weighted-average price per barrel, net of any deferred premium. No payment would be made or received for prices above the indicated weighted-average price per barrel, other than any applicable deferred premium. For our sold puts, we would make settlement payments for prices below the indicated weighted-average price per barrel, net of any deferred premium. No payment would be made or received for prices above the indicated weighted-average price per barrel, other than any applicable deferred premium. For natural gas basis swaps, we make settlement payments if the difference between NWPL and Henry Hub is below the indicated weighted-average price of our contracts and receive settlement payments if the difference between NWPL and Henry Hub is above the indicated weighted-average price. For some of our options we paid or received a premium at the time the positions were created and for others, the premium payment or receipt is deferred until the time of settlement. As of September 30, 2023, we have net payable deferred premiums of approximately $2 million, which is reflected in the mark-to-market valuation and will be payable through December 31, 2024. We use oil and gas production hedges to protect our sales against decreases in oil and gas prices. We also use natural gas purchase hedges to protect our natural gas purchases against increases in prices. We do not enter into derivative contracts for speculative trading purposes and have not accounted for our derivatives as cash-flow or fair-value hedges. The changes in fair value of these instruments are recorded in current earnings. Gains (losses) on oil and gas sales hedges are classified in the revenues and other section of the statement of operations, while natural gas purchase hedges are included in expenses and other section of the statement of operations. As of September 30, 2023, we had the following crude oil production and gas purchases hedges.

Our commodity derivatives are measured at fair value using industry-standard models with various inputs including publicly available underlying commodity prices and forward curves, and all are classified as Level 2 in the required fair value hierarchy for the periods presented. These commodity derivatives are subject to counterparty netting. The following tables present the fair values (gross and net) of our outstanding derivatives as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022: September 30, 2023 Balance Sheet Gross Amounts Gross Amounts Offset Net Fair Value Presented (in thousands) Assets: Commodity Contracts Current assets $ 12,494 $ (12,494) $ — Commodity Contracts Non-current assets 25,339 (25,339) — Liabilities: Commodity Contracts Current liabilities (58,656) 12,494 (46,162) Commodity Contracts Non-current liabilities (51,304) 25,339 (25,965) Total derivatives $ (72,127) $ — $ (72,127) December 31, 2022 Balance Sheet Gross Amounts Gross Amounts Offset Net Fair Value Presented (in thousands) Assets: Commodity Contracts Current assets $ 66,974 $ (30,607) $ 36,367 Commodity Contracts Non-current assets 39,886 (39,810) 76 Liabilities: Commodity Contracts Current liabilities (61,713) 30,607 (31,106) Commodity Contracts Non-current liabilities (53,452) 39,810 (13,642) Total derivatives $ (8,305) $ — $ (8,305) By using derivative instruments to economically hedge exposure to changes in commodity prices, we expose ourselves to credit risk. Credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. When the fair value of a derivative contract is positive, the counterparty owes us, which creates credit risk. We do not receive collateral from our counterparties. We minimize the credit risk in derivative instruments by limiting our exposure to any single counterparty. In addition, our 2021 RBL Facility prevents us from entering into hedging arrangements that are secured, except with our lenders and their affiliates that have margin call requirements, that otherwise require us to provide collateral or with a non-lender counterparty that does not have an A or A2 credit rating or better from Standard & Poor’s or Moody’s, respectively. In accordance with our standard practice, our commodity derivatives are subject to counterparty netting under agreements governing such derivatives which partially mitigates the counterparty nonperformance risk. |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Lawsuits, Claims, Commitments and Contingencies | Lawsuits, Claims, Commitments and Contingencies In the normal course of business, we, or our subsidiaries, are the subject of, or party to, pending or threatened legal proceedings, contingencies and commitments involving a variety of matters that seek, or may seek, among other things, compensation for alleged personal injury, breach of contract, property damage or other losses, punitive damages, fines and penalties, remediation costs, or injunctive or declaratory relief. We accrue for currently outstanding lawsuits, claims and proceedings when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the liability can be reasonably estimated. We have not recorded any reserve balances at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. We also evaluate the amount of reasonably possible losses that we could incur as a result of these matters. We believe that reasonably possible losses that we could incur in excess of accruals on our balance sheet would not be material to our consolidated financial position or results of operations. We, or our subsidiaries, or both, have indemnified various parties against specific liabilities those parties might incur in the future in connection with transactions that they have entered into with us. As of September 30, 2023, we are not aware of material indemnity claims pending or threatened against us. Securities Litigation Matters On November 20, 2020, Luis Torres, individually and on behalf of a putative class, filed a securities class action lawsuit (the “Securities Class Action”) in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas against Berry Corp. and certain of its current and former directors and officers (collectively, the “Defendants”). The complaint asserts violations of Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 (as amended, the “Securities Act”), and Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act of 1934 (as amended, the “Exchange Act”), on behalf of a putative class of all persons who purchased or otherwise acquired (i) common stock pursuant and/or traceable to the Company’s 2018 IPO; or (ii) Berry Corp.’s securities between July 26, 2018 and November 3, 2020 (the “Class Period”). In particular, the complaint alleges that the Defendants made false and misleading statements during the Class Period and in the offering materials for the IPO, concerning the Company’s business, operational efficiency and stability, and compliance policies, that artificially inflated the Company’s stock price, resulting in injury to the purported class members when the value of Berry Corp.’s common stock declined following release of its financial results for the third quarter of 2020 on November 3, 2020. On November 1, 2021, the court-appointed co-lead plaintiffs filed an amended complaint asserting claims on behalf of the same putative class under Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act and Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act, alleging, among other things, that the Company and the individual Defendants made false and misleading statements between July 26, 2018 and November 3, 2020 regarding the Company’s permits and permitting processes. The amended complaint does not quantify the alleged losses but seeks to recover all damages sustained by the putative class as a result of these alleged securities violations, as well as attorneys’ fees and costs. The Defendants filed a motion to dismiss on January 24, 2022 and on September 13, 2022, the court issued an order denying that motion, and the case moved into discovery. On February 13, 2023, the plaintiffs filed a motion for class certification, and on April 14, 2023, the defendants filed their opposition; the plaintiffs filed their reply on May 26, 2023, and a hearing on the motion for class certification was set for August 23, 2023. On July 31, 2023, the parties executed a Memorandum of Understanding memorializing an agreement-in-principle to settle all claims in the Securities Class Action for an aggregate sum of $2.5 million. On September 18, 2023, the plaintiffs and Defendants executed a Stipulation and Agreement of Settlement, and the plaintiffs filed a motion seeking preliminary approval of the settlement. On October 18, 2023, the Court granted that motion, issuing a preliminary approval order and scheduling a final settlement approval hearing for February 6, 2024. The parties will now move forward with the notice and approval process, which is expected to include, among other things, the February 6, 2024 final approval hearing, an opt-out process, and opportunities for class members to object to the settlement. The Defendants continue to maintain that the claims are without merit and admit no liability in connection with the settlement. On October 20, 2022, a shareholder derivative lawsuit (the “Assad Lawsuit”) was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas by putative stockholder George Assad, allegedly on behalf of the Company, that piggy-backs on the Securities Class Action and which is currently pending before the same court. The derivative complaint names certain current and former officers and directors as defendants, and generally alleges that they breached their fiduciary duties by causing or failing to prevent the securities violations alleged in the securities class action. The derivative complaint also alleges claims for unjust enrichment as against all defendants, and claims for contribution and indemnification under Sections 10(b) and 21D of the Exchange Act. On January 27, 2023, the court granted the parties’ joint stipulated request to stay the Assad Lawsuit pending resolution of the Securities Class Action. On January 20, 2023, a second shareholder derivative lawsuit (the “Karp Lawsuit,” together with the Assad Lawsuit, the “Shareholder Derivative Actions”) was filed, this time in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, by putative stockholder Molly Karp, allegedly on behalf of the Company, again piggy-backing on the Securities Class Action. This complaint, similar to the Assad Lawsuit, is brought against certain current and former officers and directors of the Company, asserting breach of fiduciary duty, aiding and abetting, and contribution claims based on the defendants allegedly having caused or failed to prevent the securities violations alleged in the securities class action. In addition, the complaint asserts a claim under Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act, alleging that Berry’s 2022 proxy statement was false and misleading in that it suggested the Company’s internal controls were sufficient and the Board of Directors was adequately overseeing material risks facing the Company when, according to the derivative plaintiff, that was not the case. On February 13, 2023, the court granted the parties’ joint stipulated request to stay the Karp Lawsuit pending resolution of a motion for summary judgment by the defendants in the Securities Class Action. The proposed settlement of the Securities Class Action does not relate to the Shareholder Derivative Actions. The defendants continue to believe the claims in the Shareholder Derivative Actions are without merit and intend to defend vigorously against them, but there can be no assurances as to the outcome. At this time, we are unable to estimate the probability or the amount of liability, if any, related to these matters. |

Equity [Abstract] | |
Equity | Equity Cash Dividends In February 2023, the Board of Directors declared regular fixed cash dividends of $0.06 per share, as well as variable cash dividends of $0.44 per share which was based on the results of the fourth quarter of 2022, for a total of $0.50 per share, which was paid in March 2023. In April 2023, the Board of Directors declared a $0.12 per share regular fixed cash dividend based on the results of the first quarter of 2023, which was paid in May 2023. In July 2023, the Board of Directors declared a $0.12 per share regular fixed cash dividend, as well as a variable dividend of $0.02 based on the results for the six months ended June 30, 2023, which was paid in August 2023. In October 2023, the Board of Directors approved a $0.12 per share regular fixed cash dividend, as well as a variable dividend of $0.09 based on the results of the third quarter of 2023, each of which is expected to be paid in November 2023. The Company anticipates that it will continue to pay quarterly cash dividends in the future. However, the payment and amount of future dividends remain within the discretion of the Board and will depend upon the Company’s future earnings, financial condition, capital requirements, and other factors. Stock Repurchase Program The Company did not repurchase any shares during the three months ended September 30, 2023. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we repurchased 1.4 million shares (all in the second quarter) for approximately $10 million. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had repurchased a total of 11,949,247 shares under the stock repurchase program for approximately $114 million in aggregate. As previously disclosed, the Company implemented a shareholder return model in early 2022, for which the Company intends to allocate a portion of Adjusted Free Cash Flow to opportunistic share repurchases. In February 2023, the Board of Directors approved an increase of $102 million to the Company’s stock repurchase authorization bringing the Company’s remaining share authority to $200 million. As of September 30, 2023, the Company’s remaining total share repurchase authority is $190 million. The Board’s authorization permits the Company to make purchases of its common stock from time to time in the open market and in privately negotiated transactions, subject to market conditions and other factors, up to the aggregate amount authorized by the Board. The Board’s authorization has no expiration date. Repurchases may be made from time to time in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or by other means, as determined in the Company’s sole discretion. The manner, timing and amount of any purchases will be determined based on our evaluation of market conditions, stock price, compliance with outstanding agreements and other factors. Purchases may be commenced or suspended at any time without notice and do not obligate the company to purchase shares during any period or at all. Any shares repurchased are reflected as treasury stock and any shares acquired will be available for general corporate purposes. Stock-Based Compensation In February 2023, the Company granted awards of approximately 1,031,000 shares of restricted stock units (“RSUs”), which will vest annually in equal amounts over three years and a target number of approximately 437,000 shares of performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”), which will cliff vest, if at all, at the end of a three year performance period. The fair value of these awards was approximately $14 million. The RSUs awarded in February 2023 are solely time-based awards. Of the PSUs awarded to certain Berry employees (excluding CJWS employee awards) in February 2023, (a) 50% of such will vest, if at all, based on a total stockholder return (“TSR”) performance metric (the “TSR PSUs”), which is defined as the capital gains per share of stock plus dividends paid assuming reinvestment, with TSR measured on an absolute basis and (b) 50% of such awards will vest, if at all, based on the consolidated Company’s average cash returned on invested capital (“CROIC PSUs”) over the performance period. The PSUs awarded to certain CJWS employees in February 2023 will vest, if at all, based on the CJWS average cash returned on invested capital (“ROIC PSUs”) over the performance period. Depending on the results achieved during the three-year performance period, the actual number of shares that a grant recipient receives at the end of the period may range from 0% to 200% of the target TSR, CROIC and ROIC PSUs granted. The fair value of the RSUs, CROIC PSUs and ROIC PSUs was determined using the grant date stock price. The fair value of the TSR PSUs was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation analysis to estimate the total shareholder return ranking of the Company, including a comparison against the peer group over the performance periods. The expected volatility of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant was estimated based on average volatility rates for the Company and selected guideline public companies. The dividend yield assumption was based on the then current annualized declared dividend. The risk-free interest rate assumption was based on observed interest rates consistent with the three-year performance measurement period. |

Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract] | |
Acquisition and Divestiture | Acquisition and Divestiture Macpherson Acquisition In July 2023, we executed an agreement to acquire Macpherson Energy, a privately held Kern County, California operator and we closed the acquisition in September 2023. The total purchase price is approximately $70 million, subject to customary purchase price adjustments. The transaction was structured such that approximately $53 million has been paid at closing, including purchase price adjustments, and approximately $20 million will be paid in July 2024, subject to purchase price adjustments. The Macpherson transaction was accounted for as a business combination under the acquisition method of accounting. When determining the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, management made significant estimates, judgments and assumptions. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed are included in the E&P segment. The Company's preliminary allocation of the purchase price as of the closing date, including preliminary working capital adjustments, to the estimated fair value of the Macpherson Energy net assets is as follows: September 15, 2023 (in thousands) Cash and cash equivalents $ 3,845 Accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts 12,694 Other current assets 1,541 Property and equipment 76,472 Other noncurrent assets 1,865 Total assets acquired $ 96,417 Accounts payable and accrued expenses assumed (15,502) Asset retirement obligation (7,422) Other noncurrent liabilities (434) Net assets acquired $ 73,059 The allocation of the purchase price to Macpherson Energy net tangible assets and liabilities as of September 15, 2023, is preliminary and subject to revisions to the fair value calculations for the identifiable assets and liabilities. The final purchase price allocation could differ from the preliminary allocation noted in the summary above. The acquired property and equipment is stated at fair value, and amortization on the acquired oil and gas property is computed using units-of-production method over the remaining proved reserves and depreciation of other property and equipment is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of each asset. The unaudited pro forma information presented below has been prepared to give effect to the Macpherson Acquisition as if it had occurred at the beginning of the periods presented.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Earnings Per Share | Earnings Per Share We calculate basic earnings (loss) per share by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for each period presented. Common shares issuable upon the satisfaction of certain conditions pursuant to a contractual agreement, are considered common shares outstanding and are included in the computation of net income (loss) per share. The RSUs and PSUs are not a participating security as the dividends are forfeitable. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, no RSU or PSU shares were included in the diluted EPS calculation as their effect was anti-dilutive under the “if converted” method. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, 4,001,000 and 4,168,000, RSU and PSU shares were included in the diluted EPS calculation, respectively.

Principles of Consolidation and Reporting | Principles of Consolidation and Reporting The condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. In management’s opinion, the accompanying financial statements contain all normal, recurring adjustments that are necessary to fairly present our interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. We eliminated all significant intercompany transactions and balances upon consolidation. For oil and gas exploration and production joint ventures in which we have a direct working interest, we account for our proportionate share of assets, liabilities, revenue, expense and cash flows within the relevant lines of the financial statements. |
