On 1 March 2013, the Danish Ministry of Taxation announced a proposal to overhaul the fiscal terms of older licences. We estimate the proposed changes would result in a net reduction in remaining IOC value of US$1.47 billion (DKr8.69 billion). The main proposal is to reduce the rate of hydrocarbon tax from 70% to 52%, but also to reduce the hydrocarbon tax allowances from 250% of capex, to 30%. This would result in drastically increased hydrocarbon tax bills for those fields affected.
