We use commodity-based derivative contracts to manage exposures to commodity price fluctuations. We do not enter into these arrangements for speculative or trading purposes. At times, certain of our derivatives are swaps where we receive a fixed price for our production and pay market prices to the counterparty. Our derivatives program may also include collars, which establish a minimum floor price and a predetermined ceiling price. Our program may also include a three-way collar which is a combination of three options: a sold call, a purchased put and a sold put. The sold call establishes the ceiling price while the purchased put establishes the floor price until the market price for the commodity falls below the sold put stock price at which price the value of the purchased put is effectively capped. We have also entered into natural gas derivative instruments containing a fixed price swap and a sold option (which we refer to as a swaption). At December 31, 2023, our derivatives program includes swaps, collars, three-way-collars and swaptions. These contracts expire monthly through December 2026. Their fair value, represented by the estimated amount that would be realized upon immediate liquidation as of December 31, 2023, approximated a net derivative asset of $424.4 million compared to a net derivative liability of $138.6 million at December 31, 2022. This change is primarily related to changes in futures prices for natural gas and oil, the settlements of derivative contracts during 2023 and the new commodity derivative contracts we entered into during 2023 for 2024, 2025 and 2026. At December 31, 2023, the following commodity derivative contracts were outstanding, excluding our basis swaps which is separately discussed below:
