Fair value hedge

The prices of natural gas, NGLs, crude oil, petrochemicals and refined products are subject to fluctuations in response to changes in supply and demand, market conditions and a variety of additional factors that are beyond our control.  In order to manage such price risks, we enter into commodity derivative instruments such as physical forward contracts, futures contracts, fixed-for-float swaps, basis swaps and option contracts.  The following table summarizes our portfolio of commodity derivative instruments outstanding at December 31, 2015 (volume measures as noted):

(3)Current and long-term volumes include 24.3 Bcf and 2.1 Bcf, respectively, of physical derivative instruments that are predominantly priced at a marked-based index plus a premium or minus a discount related to location differences.
(4)    Reflects the use of derivative instruments to manage risks associated with transportation, processing and storage assets.

Fair Value Measurements of Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured on a Recurring Basis
The following tables set forth, by level within the Level 1, 2 and 3 fair value hierarchy (see Note 2), the carrying values of our financial assets and liabilities at the dates indicated. These assets and liabilities are measured on a recurring basis and are classified based on the lowest level of input used to estimate their fair value. Our assessment of the relative significance of such inputs requires judgment.

Noncash Impairment Charges by Segment
We measure certain assets, primarily long-lived assets and equity method investments, at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These assets are recognized at fair value when they are deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired.

Our non-cash asset impairment charges for the year ended December 31, 2013 primarily relate to the abandonment of certain crude oil and natural gas pipeline segments in Texas, Oklahoma and the Gulf of Mexico, certain refined products terminal assets in Texas, an NGL storage cavern in Arizona and an NGL fractionator and storage cavern facility in Ohio.  These impairment charges totaled $92.6 million and are a component of operating costs and expenses.  The remaining charge, or $4.8 million, relates to the impairment of an equity method investment and was presented as a component of equity in income of unconsolidated affiliates.  The following table presents categories of long-lived assets that were subject to non-recurring fair value measurements during the year ended December 31, 2013:
