Calculation of royalty — gas 4 (1) When gas that is recovered from, or attributed to, lands in a contract area is sold, the royalty payable is the gross royalty value of the gas, determined in accordance with subsection (2), less the portion of the cost of gathering, dehydrating, compressing and processing the gas that is equal to its gross royalty value divided by its total value. Gross royalty (2) The gross royalty value of gas that is recovered from, or attributed to, lands in the contract area is the basic gross royalty value of 25% of the quantity of that gas multiplied by the actual selling price plus the supplementary gross royalty value determined in accordance with subsection (3). All amounts are to be calculated at the time and place of production. Supplementary gross royalty (3) The supplementary gross royalty value of gas, individually determined for each gas component produced, is equal to the sum of the products obtained by multiplying 75% of the quantity of each gas component by (a) in the case of marketable gas, (i) if the actual selling price exceeds $10.65/1000 m 3 but does not exceed $24.85/1000 m 3 , 30% of the difference between the actual selling price per 1000 m 3 and $10.65/1000 m 3 , or (ii) if the actual selling price exceeds $24.85/1000 m 3 , $4.26/1000 m 3 plus 55% of the portion of the actual selling price in excess of $24.85/1000 m 3 ; (b) in the case of pentanes plus, if the actual selling price exceeds $27.68/m 3 , 50% of the portion of the actual selling price in excess of $27.68/m 3 ; (c) in the case of sulphur, if the actual selling price exceeds $39.37/t, 50% of the portion of the actual selling price in excess of $39.37/t; (d) in the case of other components from a source that produces marketable gas, an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying the actual selling price of each of those components by the percentage by which the overall royalty rate for marketable gas, taking both basic and supplementary gross royalty values into account, exceeds 25%; and (e) in the case of other components from a source that does not produce marketable gas, the lesser of one third of the actual selling price of that component and the amount determined under any special agreement entered into under subsection 4(2) of the Act. Measurement of volumes (4) For the purposes of this section, volumes referred to are volumes measured at standard conditions of 101.325 kPa and 15°C. Notice to council (5) The Minister must send the council notice of any costs that are deducted under subsection (1) for gathering, dehydrating, compressing and processing.
Indian Oil and Gas Regulations — 5
No royalty payable 5 (1) Despite sections 2 to 4, the royalty payable on oil or gas recovered from, or attributed to, lands in a contract area is nil if the oil or gas is consumed in drilling for, producing or processing oil or gas that is recovered from, or attributed to, those lands. Royalty payable (2) However, subsection (1) does not apply to oil or gas that is consumed in the production or processing of crude bitumen.
