The price swings of 2022 both distracted from and highlighted the weaknesses of many global fiscal terms. With industry profitability and energy security issues now centre stage, governments are reviewing and revising their fiscal policies. The key themes within 2023 discussions will include: • State share of profit increases, but are windfall taxes the best option? • Natural gas terms get a closer look • Decarbonising upstream becomes a priority • Consolidation of production sharing contracts (PSCs) will be considered to boost investment in mature basins
