Australia Upstream Fiscal and Regulatory Guide
Summary
Although the Commonwealth government has recently altered the PRRT with the reduction in the uplift rates for certain categories of expenditures in the oil and gas projects, further changes may follow. The Treasury is reviewing gas transfer pricing regulations, with its report expected by April 2020. In addition, as a result of the limited revenues generated by the PRRT to date, there has also been pressure to make broader changes to the upstream fiscal regime. Domestic gas requirements may pressure the Commonwealth government to introduce a domestic market obligation forcing gas producers to reserve some of the produced gas for the domestic market. Australia is presently the world’s second liquefied gas exporter, but it has high gas prices for households and manufacturers and a tight gas supply in eastern Australia, which in few years could experience gas shortages.
