Insurance Does Not Cover All Risks
 
Exploration, development, production and processing of oil, gas and NGLs can be hazardous and involve unforeseen occurrences such as hurricanes, blowouts, cratering, fires and loss of well control. These occurrences can result in damage to or destruction of wells or production facilities, injury to persons, loss of life, or damage to property or the environment. We maintain insurance against certain losses or liabilities in accordance with customary industry practices and in amounts that management believes to be prudent. However, insurance against all operational risks is not available to us. Due to changes in the insurance marketplace following hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico in recent years, we currently do not have coverage for any damage that may be caused by future named windstorms in the Gulf of Mexico.

Item 1B.   Unresolved Staff Comments
 
Not applicable.
 
Item 2.   Properties
 
Substantially all of our properties consist of interests in developed and undeveloped oil and gas leases and mineral acreage located in our core operating areas. These interests entitle us to drill for and produce oil, natural gas and NGLs from specific areas. Our interests are mostly in the form of working interests and, to a lesser extent, overriding royalty, mineral and net profits interests, foreign government concessions and other forms of direct and indirect ownership in oil and gas properties.
 
We also have certain midstream assets, including natural gas and NGL processing plants and pipeline systems. Our most significant midstream assets are our assets serving the Barnett Shale region in North Texas. These assets include approximately 2,700 miles of pipeline, two gas processing plants with 680 MMcf per day of total capacity, and a 15 MBbls per day NGL fractionator.
