The Irish government has outlined legislation to prohibit licences for new oil and gas exploration. No new applications will be accepted and there will be no future licensing rounds. The most recent licences operate under a relatively simple concession system. The main elements are a Petroleum Production Tax (PPT) and corporate income tax. The PPT is determined by an R-factor with a minimum annual payment. PPT is deductible for calculating corporate income tax.
