Why Invest In UK O&G, When you Can Invest in Morocco :
"The fiscal terms in Morocco are restricted to a 5% State royalty for onshore gas, 3.5% offshore (see notes below), applicable after the first 10.6 BCF of net production to the operator, and corporation tax charged at 31%. However, there is a 10-year “holiday” before corporation tax will be charged and any unused tax losses can be offset against the tax due. There are no signature bonuses but production bonuses in the form of cash payments exist with a maximum one-off payment of US$5,000,000 on production greater than 30,000 BOE/day. A discovery bonus of US$1,000,000 is also payable..."
Notes applicable to Gas :
No royalties for the first 300,000 tonnes of production from concessions located onshore or offshore at less than 200 metres depth.
5% royalties on production in excess of 300,000 tonnes from concessions located onshore or offshore at less than 200 metres depth.
No royalties for the first 500,000 tonnes of production from concessions located offshore at more than 200 metres depth.
3.5% royalties on production in excess of 500,000 tonnes from concessions located offshore at more than 200 metres depth.
Of course ONHYM already have 25% !
I believe these figure are accurate, if not, please feel free to correct them.
