Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its inception some 40 years ago, petroleum-specific taxation in the UK has been subject to numerous modifications. Often these modifications were brought into place not only to sufficiently incentivise the investors but also to capture a fair share for the government. However, it is evident from the frequency of changes that finding the right balance between these two aims is no easy matter. Such a balance, and the consequent fiscal stability, is necessary for the long-term relationship between the parties to endure to their mutual benefit. Still, it does not take much for one or other party to feel that they are out of balance. As a consequence, one party feels that the other party is taking an undue proportion of the value generated and that they are losing out. Yet achieving that balance and fiscal stability is possible. To understand this possibility, this book first clarifies what is meant by sufficient incentivisation and fair share before developing a new fiscal system that manages this balance and stability. Such clarification yields objective criteria against which to assess not only the existing regime, but also the newly proposed regime. This approach is further complemented by the critical analysis of the fiscal legislative framework and the evaluation of the legal positions of specific contractual elements and mechanisms found within that framework. This latter analysis is important in order to reduce the legal uncertainty such elements may create, which can otherwise lead to further reactive amendments and revisions to the fiscal regime in the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are few areas of economic policy-making in which the returns to good decisions are so high—and the punishment of bad decisions so cruel—as in the management of natural resource wealth. Rich endowments of oil, gas and minerals have set some countries on courses of sustained and robust prosperity; but they have left others riddled with corruption and persistent poverty, with little of lasting value to show for squandered wealth. And amongst the most important of these decisions are those relating to the tax treatment of oil, gas and minerals. This book will be of interest to Economics postgraduates and researchers working on resource issues, as well as professionals working on taxation of oil, gas and minerals/mining.

Book excerpt: Taxation of oil and gas is one of the more complicated areas of the U.S. federal income tax law. Unique principleshave developed over the years as Congress, the IRS, the courts and taxpayers have designed, interpreted, and pursued energy development. Taxpayers and the government have had to deal with the high risk and significant costs associated with oil and gas development, all within the context of oil and gas production being a core national security priority through the years. The unconventional revolution combined with continued significant conventional development has caused a renewed interest in these matters. Taxation is always crucial in judging the economics of oil and gasdevelopment, so this casebook should prove timely as taxpayers and financial advisors renew their interest — or immerse themselves for the first time — in these concepts and principles. A particular challenge is application of conventional rulesto unconventional production processes, which is highlighted and explored in this timely casebook. The aim of Chapter 1 is to provide an overview of the history of oil and gas development in the United States, as well as to introduce basic federal income tax concepts. This knowledge will facilitate the in-depth study of U.S federal oil and gas taxation in Chapters 2–11. Professors and students will benefit from: Discussion of historic oil and gas industry and general federal income tax issues Discussion of oil and gas tax principles, provisions and policies, highlighting unique aspects of the law Text that fits unconventional development into the conventional tax rules developed over the years Practitioners will benefit from: Refresh of oil and gas tax issues contained in a casebook dedicated entirely to oil and gas tax matters Comparison and contrast of unconventional and conventional principles, policies and tax rules
