Such estimates and assumptions also affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We make significant estimates with respect to (i) estimated fair value of assets and liabilities acquired and identification of associated goodwill and intangible assets, (ii) impairment assessments of goodwill and intangible assets, (iii) fair value of derivatives, (iv) accruals and contingent liabilities, (v) property and equipment, depreciation and amortization expense and asset retirement obligations, (vi) impairment assessments of property and equipment and investments in unconsolidated entities and (vii) inventory valuations. Although we believe these estimates are reasonable, actual results could differ from these estimates.</span></div>

CY2020 us-gaap Derivatives Methods Of Accounting Hedge Documentation
DerivativesMethodsOfAccountingHedgeDocumentation
When we apply hedge accounting, our policy is to formally document all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as our risk management objectives for undertaking the hedge. This process includes specific identification of the hedging instrument and the hedged transaction, the nature of the risk being hedged and how the hedging instrument’s effectiveness will be assessed.
CY2020 us-gaap Derivatives Methods Of Accounting Hedge Effectiveness
DerivativesMethodsOfAccountingHedgeEffectiveness
At the inception of the hedging relationship, we assess whether the derivatives employed are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of anticipated hedged transactions. Throughout the hedging relationship, retrospective and prospective hedge effectiveness is assessed on a qualitative basis.
CY2020 us-gaap Derivatives Methods Of Accounting Hedging Derivatives
DerivativesMethodsOfAccountingHedgingDerivatives
For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, changes in fair value are deferred in AOCI and recognized in earnings in the periods during which the underlying hedged transactions are recognized in earnings.
CY2020 us-gaap Derivatives Methods Of Accounting Nonhedging Derivatives
DerivativesMethodsOfAccountingNonhedgingDerivatives
Derivatives that are not designated as a hedging instrument and derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting are recognized in earnings each period.

CY2020 us-gaap Concentration Risk Credit Risk
ConcentrationRiskCreditRisk
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of trade receivables. Our accounts receivable are primarily from purchasers and shippers of crude oil and, to a lesser extent, purchasers of NGL. This industry concentration has the potential to impact our overall exposure to credit risk in that the customers may be similarly affected by changes in economic, industry or other conditions. We review credit exposure and financial information of our counterparties and generally require letters of credit for receivables from customers that are not considered creditworthy, unless the credit risk can otherwise be reduced.
