Disaggregation of Revenue
The following table represents a disaggregation of revenue earned from contracts with customers during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 (in millions):
Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30,
2021 2020 2021 2020
LNG revenues (1) $ 1,597  $ 1,336  $ 3,266  $ 2,785

Total revenues from customers 1,889  1,474  3,852  3,192 
Net derivative loss (2) —  (4) —  (4)
Total revenues $ 1,889  $ 1,470  $ 3,852  $ 3,188 
(1)LNG revenues include revenues for LNG cargoes in which our customers exercised their contractual right to not take delivery but remained obligated to pay fixed fees irrespective of such election. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recognized $388 million and $404 million, respectively, in LNG revenues associated with LNG cargoes for which customers notified us that they would not take delivery, of which $244 million would have been recognized subsequent to June 30, 2020 had the cargoes been lifted pursuant to the delivery schedules with the customers. LNG revenues during the three months ended June 30, 2020 excluded $16 million that would have otherwise been recognized during the quarter if the cargoes were lifted pursuant to the delivery schedules with the customers. We did not have revenues associated with LNG cargoes for which customers notified us that they would not take delivery during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. Revenue is generally recognized upon receipt of irrevocable notice that a customer will not take delivery because our customers have no contractual right to take delivery of such LNG cargo in future periods and our performance obligations with respect to such LNG cargo have been satisfied.
(2)See Note 7—Derivative Instruments for additional information about our derivatives.
