Book excerpt: In FY 2007, domestic and foreign co. received over $75 billion from the sale of oil and gas produced from fed. lands and waters. These co. paid the fed. gov¿t. $9 billion in royalties for this dev¿t. The gov¿t. also collects other revenues, and the sum of all revenues received is referred to as the ¿gov¿t. take (GT).¿ The terms and conditions under which the gov¿t. collects these revenues are referred to as the ¿oil and gas fiscal system (OGFS).¿ This report: (1) evaluates GT and the attractiveness for investors of the fed. oil and gas fiscal system; (2) evaluates how the absence of flexibility in this system has led to large foregone revenues; and (3) assesses what has been done to monitor the performance and appropriateness of the OGFS.

Book excerpt: Every 5 years, the fed. gov¿t. decides the areas in the offshore waters of the U.S. it will offer for leasing and establishes a schedule for individual lease sales, conducted by the Minerals Mgmt. Service. It¿s failure to include price thresholds on leases issued in 1998 and 1999 would likely cost the fed. gov¿t. billions of dollars in forgone royalties. This report: illustrates the potential loss of royalties because of the absence of price thresholds in leases issued in 1998 and 1999; and provides an update of the possible consequences of Kerr-McGee¿s legal challenge on royalties already collected and evaluates the potential for additional forgone royalties if price thresholds no longer apply to future production from the 1996, 1997, and 2000 DWRRA leases.

Book Federal Oil and Gas Royalties

Download or read book Federal Oil and Gas Royalties written by Alice Briggs and published by Nova Science Publishers. This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Production of oil and natural gas from leased federal lands and waters is a significant source of revenue for the federal government. The Government Accountability Office (GAO) has issued many reports on Interior's management of federal oil and gas resources, including its programs for verifying oil and gas production volumes and ensuring accurate royalty collections. These reports raised questions about whether the government was collecting all the revenue it was due and included 36 recommendations to strengthen royalty collection, among other things. In 2011, GAO added Interior's management of federal oil and gas resources to its list of programs at high risk of fraud, waste, abuse, and mismanagement. This book examines efforts Interior has taken since fiscal year 2009 and the reasonableness and completeness of Interior's royalty data. The book also assesses the extent to which Interior's production verification regulations and policies provide reasonable assurance that oil and gas are accurately measured; the extent to which Interior's offshore and onshore production accountability inspection programs consistently set and meet program goals and address key factors affecting measurement accuracy; and Interior's management of its production verification programs. Finally, it provides a descriptive update on Interior's Minerals Management Service's (MMS) key efforts to improve the accuracy of oil and gas royalty data; the assessment of the completeness and reasonableness of fiscal years 2006 and 2007 oil and gas royalty datathe latest data available; and factors identified by oil and gas companies that affect their ability to accurately report royalties owed to the federal government.

Book excerpt: In FY 2007, the Minerals Mgmt. Service (MMS) collected over $9 billion in oil and natural gas royalties and disbursed these funds to fed., state, and tribal accounts. MMS sells the oil and gas it receives through the royalty-in-kind program and disburses the revenues received from the sales to fed. and state recipients. This report highlights oversight issues related to MMS's royalty-in-kind program raised in that testimony and assesses: (1) the extent to which MMS has reasonable assurance that it is collecting the correct amounts of royalty-in-kind oil and gas; and (2) the reliability of the info. on the performance of the royalty-in-kind program contained in MMS's annual report to the Congress.

Book Federal Oil Valuation  Efforts to Revise Regulations and an Analysis of Royalties in Kind

Download or read book Federal Oil Valuation Efforts to Revise Regulations and an Analysis of Royalties in Kind written by and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In fiscal year 1997, the Department of the Interior's Minerais Management Service (MMs) collected about $4.1 billion in royalties from oil and gas leases on federal lands. By law, the states in which these leases are located receive a share of the royalties, which are calculated as a percentage of the value of the oil or gas that is produced. The value of much of the oil from federal leases has been based on posted prices. However, recent evidence indicates that oil is often sold for more than the posted prices, suggesting that the value of the oil and federal royalties should both be higher. On the basis of this evidence, in 1995 MMS began revising its regulations for valuing oil from federal leases. In February 1998 MMS issued its most recent revision. The proposed regulations would reduce the use of posted prices to value much of the oil and would instead generally require that other, and often higher, prices be used. Although states that receive distributions of these royalties generally support the proposed regulations, oil industry representatives generally oppose them, believing that oil companies should not pay royalties on higher prices. As an alternative, the oil industry has suggested that MMS be required to accept, as the federal government's royalties, a percentage of the actual oil and gas produced from federal leases (known as royalties in kind), rather than cash. MMS would then sell this oil and gas to generate revenues. Legislation mandating that MMS accept federal oil and gas royalties in kind has been introduced in both the U.S. Senate and the House of Representatives. You asked us to address the following: (1) the information used by MMS to justify the need for revising its oil valuation regulations; (2) how MMS has addressed concerns expressed by the oil industry and states in developing these regulations; and (3) the feasibility of the federal government's taking its oil and gas royalties in kind.
