| Basis Of Preparation And Presentation | BASIS OF PREPARATION AND PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this quarterly report include the accounts of Unit Corporation and all its subsidiaries and affiliates and have been prepared under the rules and regulations of the SEC. The terms “company,” “Unit,” “we,” “our,” “us,” or like terms refer to Unit Corporation, a Delaware corporation, and, as appropriate, one or more of its subsidiaries and affiliates, except as otherwise indicated or as the context otherwise requires. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and do not include all the notes in our annual financial statements. This quarterly report should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Form 10-K, filed February 26, 2013, for the year ended December 31, 2012. In our management's opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all normal recurring adjustments (including the elimination of all intercompany transactions) necessary to fairly state the following: • Balance Sheets at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012; • Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012; • Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012; and • Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. Our financial statements are prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). GAAP requires us to make certain estimates and assumptions that may affect the amounts reported in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Results for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be realized for the full year in the case of 2013, or that we realized for the full year of 2012. Certain amounts in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. Certain financial statement captions were expanded or combined with no impact to consolidated net income or shareholders' equity. With respect to the unaudited financial information for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, our auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, reported that it applied limited procedures in accordance with professional standards in reviewing that information. Its separate report, dated August 6, 2013, which is included in this quarterly report, states that it did not audit and it does not express an opinion on that unaudited financial information. Accordingly, the degree of reliance placed on its report should be restricted in light of the limited review procedures applied. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is not subject to the liability provisions of Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933 (Act) for its report on the unaudited financial information because that report is not a “report” or a “part” of a registration statement prepared or certified by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP within the meaning of Sections 7 and 11 of the Act. |

| Extractive Industries [Abstract] | |
| Oil And Natural Gas Properties | OIL AND NATURAL GAS PROPERTIES Full cost accounting rules require us to review the carrying value of our oil and natural gas properties at the end of each quarter. Under those rules, the maximum amount allowed as the carrying value is referred to as the ceiling. The ceiling is the sum of the present value (using a 10% discount rate) of the estimated future net revenues from our proved reserves (using the unescalated 12-month average price of our oil, NGLs, and natural gas adjusted for any cash flow hedges), plus the cost of properties not being amortized, plus the lower of cost or estimated fair value of unproved properties included in the costs being amortized, less related income taxes. In the event the net book value of the oil, NGLs, and natural gas properties being amortized exceeds the full cost ceiling, the excess amount is charged to expense in the period during which the excess occurs, even if prices are depressed for only a short period of time. Once incurred, a write-down of oil and natural gas properties is not reversible. For the quarter ended June 30, 2012, the 12-month average commodity prices, including the discounted value of our cash flow hedges, decreased significantly, resulting in a non-cash ceiling test write down of $115.9 million pre-tax ($72.1 million, net of tax). Our qualifying cash flow hedges used in the ceiling test determination as of June 30, 2012, consisted of swaps covering 2.9 MMBoe in 2012 and 4.5 MMBoe in 2013. The effect of those hedges on the June 30, 2012 ceiling test was a $32.5 million pre-tax increase in the discounted net cash flows of our oil and natural gas properties. At June 30, 2013, the 12-month average commodity prices, including the discounted value of our cash flow hedges, were at levels that did not require us to take a write-down of our oil and natural gas properties. If there are declines in the 12-month average prices, including the discounted value of our cash flow hedges, we may be required to record a write-down in future periods. Our qualifying cash flow hedges used in the ceiling test determination as of June 30, 2013, consisted of swaps and collars covering 3.5 MMBoe in 2013. The effect of those hedges on the June 30, 2013 ceiling test was a $9.4 million pre-tax increase in the discounted net cash flows of our oil and natural gas properties. Even without the impact of those hedges, we would not have been required to take a write-down for the quarter. Our oil, NGLs, and natural gas hedging is discussed in Note 9 of the Notes to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. |

| Long-Term Debt And Other Long-Term Liabilities | LONG-TERM DEBT AND OTHER LONG-TERM LIABILITIES Long-Term Debt As of the dates in the table, long-term debt consisted of the following:
Credit Agreement. On September 5, 2012, we amended our Senior Credit Agreement (credit agreement) scheduled to mature on September 13, 2016. The amount available to be borrowed is the lesser of the amount we elect (from time to time) as the commitment amount (currently $500.0 million) or the value of the borrowing base as determined by the lenders (currently $800.0 million), but in either event not to exceed the maximum credit agreement amount of $900.0 million. We are charged a commitment fee ranging from 0.375 to 0.50 of 1% on the amount available but not borrowed. That fee varies based on the amount borrowed as a percentage of the amount of the total borrowing base. In connection with the amendment, we paid $1.5 million in origination, agency, syndication, and other related fees. We are amortizing these fees over the life of the credit agreement. The amount of the borrowing base–which is subject to redetermination by the lenders on April 1st and October 1st of each year–is based primarily on a percentage of the discounted future value of our oil and natural gas reserves. There was no change to the borrowing base as of the April 1, 2013 redetermination. We or the lenders may request a onetime special redetermination of the borrowing base between each scheduled redetermination. In addition, we may request a redetermination following the completion of an acquisition that meets the requirements set forth in the credit agreement. At our election, any part of the outstanding debt under the credit agreement may be fixed at a London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). LIBOR interest is computed as the sum of the LIBOR base for the applicable term plus 1.75% to 2.50% depending on the level of debt as a percentage of the borrowing base and is payable at the end of each term, or every 90 days, whichever is less. Borrowings not under LIBOR bear interest at the prime rate specified in the credit agreement that in any event cannot be less than LIBOR plus 1.00%. Interest is payable at the end of each month and the principal may be repaid in whole or in part at anytime, without a premium or penalty. At June 30, 2013, we had $70.0 million of outstanding borrowings under our credit agreement. We can use borrowings for financing general working capital requirements for (a) exploration, development, production, and acquisition of oil and gas properties, (b) acquisitions and operation of mid-stream assets, (c) issuance of standby letters of credit, (d) contract drilling services, and (e) general corporate purposes. The credit agreement prohibits, among other things:
The credit agreement also requires that we have at the end of each quarter:
As of June 30, 2013, we were in compliance with the covenants contained in the credit agreement. 6.625% Senior Subordinated Notes. On May 18, 2011, we completed the sale of $250.0 million of our 6.625% Senior Subordinated Notes (the 2011 Notes). The 2011 Notes were issued at par and mature on May 15, 2021. We received net proceeds of approximately $244.0 million after deducting fees of approximately $6.0 million. Those fees are being amortized as debt issuance cost over the life of the 2011 Notes. We used the net proceeds to repay outstanding borrowings under our credit agreement, which was $220.3 million on May 18, 2011. The remaining proceeds were used for general working capital purposes. On July 24, 2012, we completed the sale of $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of senior subordinated notes (the 2012 Notes) due May 15, 2021. Those notes also bear interest at a rate of 6.625% per year. The 2012 Notes were sold at 98.75% of par plus accrued interest from May 15, 2012. We used the net proceeds from the offering to partially finance our acquisition of certain oil and natural gas properties. We incurred $8.7 million of fees that are being amortized as debt issuance cost over the life of the 2012 Notes. On November 13, 2012, we registered with the SEC an offer on Form S-4 to exchange the 2012 Notes for additional notes with materially identical terms to our existing registered 2011 Notes. On January 7, 2013, the exchange of all the 2012 Notes was completed. The notes issued in exchange for the 2012 Notes are now registered and treated as a single series of debt securities with the 2011 Notes, bringing the total of the aggregate principal amount of 6.625% senior subordinated notes to $650.0 million (the Notes). Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually (in arrears) on May 15 and November 15 of each year. The Notes will mature on May 15, 2021. The Notes are guaranteed by our 100% owned domestic direct and indirect subsidiaries (the Guarantors). Unit, as the parent company, has no independent assets or operations. The guarantees are full and unconditional and joint and several, subject to certain automatic customary releases, including sale, disposition, or transfer of the capital stock or substantially all of the assets of a subsidiary guarantor, exercise of legal defeasance option or covenant defeasance option, and designation of a subsidiary guarantor as unrestricted in accordance with their respective Indentures described below. Any subsidiaries of Unit other than the Guarantors are minor. There are no significant restrictions on the ability of Unit to receive funds from its subsidiaries through dividends, loans, advances, or otherwise. The Notes are subject to an Indenture dated as of May 18, 2011, between us and Wilmington Trust, National Association (successor to Wilmington Trust FSB), as Trustee (the Trustee). The Indenture was supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of May 18, 2011 and further supplemented by the Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of January 7, 2013. As supplemented, the Indenture establishes the terms and provides for the issuance of the Notes . The discussion of the Notes is qualified by and subject to the actual terms of the Indenture. On and after May 15, 2016, we may redeem all or, from time to time, a part of the Notes at certain redemption prices, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Before May 15, 2014, we may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the original principal amount of the Notes with the net cash proceeds of one or more equity offerings at a redemption price of 106.625% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date, provided that at least 65% of the original principal amount of the Notes remains outstanding after each redemption. In addition, at any time before May 15, 2016, we may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus a “make whole” premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date. If a “change of control” occurs, subject to certain conditions, we must offer to repurchase from each holder all or any part of that holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase. The Indenture contains customary events of default. The Indenture contains covenants that, among other things, limit our ability and the ability of certain of our subsidiaries to incur or guarantee additional indebtedness; pay dividends on our capital stock or redeem capital stock or subordinated indebtedness; transfer or sell assets; make investments; incur liens; enter into transactions with our affiliates; and merge or consolidate with other companies. We were in compliance with all covenants of the Notes as of June 30, 2013. Other Long-Term Liabilities Other long-term liabilities consisted of the following:
Estimated annual principal payments under the terms of debt and other long-term liabilities during each of the five successive twelve month periods beginning July 1, 2013 (and through 2017) are $12.1 million, $40.6 million, $5.6 million, $74.0 million, and $3.7 million, respectively. |

Our oil and natural gas wells are plugged and abandoned when the oil and natural gas reserves in those wells are depleted or the wells are no longer able to produce. The plugging and abandonment liability for a well is recorded in the period in which the obligation is incurred (at the time the well is drilled or acquired). None of our assets are restricted for purposes of settling these AROs. All of our AROs relate to the plugging costs associated with our oil and gas wells.

| New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Abstract] | |
| New Accounting Pronouncements | NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02 to address the presentation of comprehensive income related to ASU 2011-05. The standard requires that companies present either in a single note or parenthetically on the face of the financial statements, the effect of significant amounts reclassified from each component of accumulated other comprehensive income based on its source (e.g., the release due to cash flow hedges from interest rate contracts) and the income statement line items affected by the reclassification (e.g., interest income or interest expense). The amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2012. We chose to present the information in a single note (Note 11 of the Notes to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-01 to limit the scope of balance sheet offsetting disclosures contained in previously issued guidance in ASU 2011-11—Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. Specifically, ASU 2011-11 applies only to derivatives, repurchase agreements and reverse purchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions that are either offset in accordance with specific criteria contained in the FASB Accounting Standards or subject to a master netting arrangement or similar agreement. Unlike IFRS, U.S. GAAP allows companies the option to present net in their balance sheets derivatives that are subject to a legally enforceable netting arrangement with the same party where rights of set-off are only available in the event of default or bankruptcy. To address these differences between IFRS and U.S. GAAP, the FASB and the IASB (the Boards) issued an exposure draft that proposed new criteria for netting that were narrower than the current conditions currently in U.S. GAAP. Nevertheless, in response to feedback from their respective stakeholders, the Boards decided to retain their existing offsetting models. Instead, the Boards have issued common disclosure requirements related to offsetting arrangements to allow investors to better compare financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS or U.S. GAAP. The amendments in this ASU require an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. An entity is required to apply the amendments for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. An entity should provide the disclosures required by those amendments retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. Derivatives subject to a master netting agreement are the only transactions in this accounting standard that affect us. We provide the effect of netting on our financial position in Note 10 of the Notes to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. |

| Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Stock-Based Compensation | STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we recognized stock compensation expense for restricted stock awards of $4.3 million and $7.6 million, respectively. For the same period we also capitalized stock compensation cost for oil and natural gas properties of $0.9 million and $1.6 million, respectively. For these same periods, the tax benefit related to this stock based compensation was $1.6 million and $2.9 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, we recognized stock compensation expense for restricted stock awards of $3.0 million and $5.3 million, respectively. For the same period we also capitalized stock compensation cost for oil and natural gas properties of $0.7 million and $1.3 million, respectively. For these same periods, the tax benefit related to this stock based compensation was $1.1 million and $2.0 million, respectively. The remaining unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested awards at June 30, 2013 is approximately $25.9 million of which $4.2 million is anticipated to be capitalized. The weighted average period of time over which this cost will be recognized is 0.9 of a year. We grant stock-based and cash-based compensation to our employees (including employees of subsidiaries) as well as to non-employee directors under our Unit Corporation Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan Amended and Restated May 2, 2012 (the amended plan). A total of 3,300,000 shares of the company's common stock is authorized for issuance to eligible participants under the amended plan. The amended plan succeeds our previous Non-employee Directors' 2000 Stock Option Plan (the option plan). We did not grant any SARs or stock options during either of the three or six month periods ending June 30, 2013 and 2012. The following table shows the fair value of any restricted stock awards granted to employees and non-employee directors during the periods indicated:
The restricted stock awards granted during the first three and six months of 2013 and 2012 are being recognized over a three year vesting period, except for a portion of those awards made to certain executive officers. As to those executive officers, 30% of the shares granted, or 57,405 shares in 2013 and 46,441 shares in 2012 (the performance shares), will cliff vest in the first half of 2016 and 2015, respectively. The actual number of performance shares that vest in 2015 and 2016 will be based on the company’s achievement of certain performance criteria over a three-year period, and will range from 50% to 150% of the restricted shares granted as performance shares. Based on the performance criteria, the participants could receive more than 100% of the performance based shares. The total aggregate stock compensation expense and capitalized cost related to oil and natural gas properties for 2013 awards for the first six months of 2013 was $4.0 million. |

| Derivatives | DERIVATIVES Commodity Derivatives We have entered into various types of derivative transactions covering some of our projected natural gas, NGLs, and oil production. These transactions are intended to reduce our exposure to market price volatility by setting the price(s) we will receive for that production. Our decisions on the price(s), type, and quantity of our production hedged is based, in part, on our view of current and future market conditions. As of June 30, 2013, our derivative transactions consisted of the following types of hedges:
We have documented policies and procedures to monitor and control the use of derivative transactions. We do not engage in derivative transactions for speculative purposes. In August 2012, we determined–on a prospective basis–that we would no longer elect to use cash flow hedge accounting for our economic hedges. Therefore, the change in fair value, on all commodity derivatives entered into after that determination, will be reflected in the income statement and not in accumulated other comprehensive income (OCI). At June 30, 2013, the following cash flow hedges were outstanding:
At June 30, 2013, the following non-designated hedges were outstanding:
After June 30, 2013, we entered into following non-designated hedges:
The following tables present the fair values and locations of the derivative transactions recorded in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets:
If a legal right of set-off exists, we net the value of the derivative transactions we have with the same counterparty in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. We recognize in accumulated OCI the effective portion of any changes in fair value and reclassify the recognized gains (losses) on the sales to oil and natural gas revenue as the underlying transactions are settled. As of June 30, 2013 and 2012, we had recognized a gain of $1.7 million and a gain of $30.3 million, net of tax, respectively, in accumulated OCI. Based on market prices at June 30, 2013, we expect to transfer over the next 12 months (in the related month of settlement) a gain of approximately $1.7 million, net of tax, into revenue. The cash flow derivative instruments existing as of June 30, 2013 are expected to mature by December 2013. For our economic hedges that we did not apply cash flow accounting to, any changes in their fair value occurring before their maturity (i.e., temporary fluctuations in value) are reported in gain (loss) on derivatives not designated as hedges and hedge ineffectiveness, net in our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Changes in the fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, to the extent they are effective in offsetting cash flows attributable to the hedged risk, are recorded in OCI until the hedged item is recognized into earnings. When the hedged item is recognized into earnings, it is reported in oil and natural gas revenues. Any change in fair value resulting from ineffectiveness is recognized in gain (loss) on derivatives not designated as hedges and hedge ineffectiveness, net. Prior to October 2012, we reported all realized and unrealized gains (losses) in oil and natural gas revenues. We reflect gains (losses) on non-designated hedges and ineffectiveness from cash flow hedges along with other revenue items in other income (expense) below income from operations. Prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. These gains (losses) at June 30 are as follows:

| Fair Value Measurements | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Fair value is defined as the amount that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid for the transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants (in either case, an exit price). To estimate an exit price, a three-level hierarchy is used prioritizing the valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The highest priority is given to Level 1 and the lowest priority is given to Level 3. The levels are summarized as follows:
The inputs available to us determine the valuation technique we use to measure the fair values of our financial instruments. We corroborate these inputs based on recent transactions and broker quotes and compare the fair value with actual settlements. The following tables set forth our recurring fair value measurements:
All of our counterparties are subject to master netting arrangements. If a legal right of set-off exists, we net the value of the derivative transactions we have with the same counterparty. We are not required to post any cash collateral with our counterparties and no collateral has been posted as of June 30, 2013. Certain natural gas fixed price swaps were transferred from Level 3 to Level 2 as of June 30, 2012 because of improvements in our ability to obtain and corroborate observable significant inputs to assess the fair value. Our policy is to recognize transfers either in or out of fair value hierarchy levels as of the end of the quarterly reporting period in which the event or change in circumstances causing the transfer occurred. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values of the assets and liabilities in the table above. Level 2 Fair Value Measurements Commodity Derivatives. We measure the fair values of our crude oil and natural gas swaps using estimated internal discounted cash flow calculations based on the NYMEX futures index. Level 3 Fair Value Measurements Commodity Derivatives. The fair values of our natural gas and crude oil collars are estimated using internal discounted cash flow calculations based on forward price curves, quotes obtained from brokers for contracts with similar terms, or quotes obtained from counterparties to the agreements. The following tables are reconciliations of our level 3 fair value measurements:
The following table provides quantitative information about our Level 3 unobservable inputs at June 30, 2013:
Based on our valuation at June 30, 2013, we determined that risk of non-performance by our counterparties was immaterial. Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments The following disclosure of the estimated fair value of financial instruments is made in accordance with accounting guidance for financial instruments. We have determined the estimated fair values by using available market information and valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop these estimates. The use of different market assumptions or valuation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. At June 30, 2013, the carrying values on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for cash and cash equivalents (classified as Level 1), accounts receivable, accounts payable, other current assets, and current liabilities approximate their fair value because of their short term nature. Based on the borrowing rates currently available to us for credit agreement debt with similar terms and maturities and also considering the risk of our non-performance, long-term debt under our credit agreement at June 30, 2013 approximates its fair value. This debt would be classified as Level 2. The carrying amounts of long-term debt, net of unamortized discount, associated with the Notes reported in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 were $645.5 million and $645.3 million, respectively. We estimated the fair value of these Notes using quoted marked prices at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 which were $676.0 million and $687.7 million, respectively. These Notes would be classified as Level 2. |
