Oil and Gas
Oil and Gas Industry
The oil and gas industry faces unique property tax challenges because the approach to value can differ greatly by state, and the production profiles and costs to operate may vary by field, if not by property. It is important for oil and gas companies to understand how their property taxes are calculated to ensure they are charged correctly and fairly. Property taxes are usually assessed based on the value of the property, which can include land, buildings, and equipment related to oil and gas production.
