Companies operating in Madagascar do so under Production Sharing Contract (PSC) terms. The most recent terms are based on the 2018 model PSC, which was released during the suspended 2018 licensing round. Royalties depend on a production-based sliding scale. Cost ceilings for oil and gas are a flat percentage of available production. Profit oil/gas is based on the remaining production after cost recovery, and is shared between investors and the government on a sliding scale linked to an R-Factor. A Direct Tax on Hydrocarbons - the corporate income tax substitute for the oil industry – is payable at a flat rate of 20%
