Considerations in establishing an effective production sharing type tax regime for petroleum

Charles J. Johnson

Energy, 1981, vol. 6, issue 11, 1285-1298

Abstract: The primary reason for developing a nation's petroleum resources for export is to generate government revenues. The goal of most governments is to maximize the net present value of their petroleum revenues subject to efficient exploration and production practices and depletion considerations. The objective of the paper is to provide a basis for the determination of an effective tax regime that will achieve this goal.
