Upstream licences in Uganda are awarded under production sharing agreements (PSA) terms which are governed by the 2013 Petroleum Act. The 2018 model PSA introduced an R-factor based profit sharing mechanism. Oil royalty rates were based on biddable daily production levels. The Uganda National Oil Company (UNOC) has the option to take a maximum 20% stake in any commercial development, carried through exploration and development phases.
