The 2019 hydrocarbon law gives contractors the flexibility to choose between participation contract (concession), production sharing contract (PSC)or risk service contract terms. The participation contract is a royalty/tax system with an additional profits tax called the Hydrocarbon Tax. The contract includes a royalty rate of 10%. The Hydrocarbon Tax is linked to project profitability and can vary between 10% and 50%. Corporate income tax is levied at 30%. In PSC, the 2019 hydrocarbon law introduced a R-factor linked profit sharing. Both cost recovery and profit sharing tiers and rates, are negotiable and assumed. Income tax on foreign contractors is levied at 30%. In PSC, there is no minimum participation for state and is assumed at 30%. Sonatrach, the national oil company, has the option to take a 51% equity share in all participation contracts. The contractor will carry Sonatrach through the exploration phase. Sonatrach will reimburse the contractor from the start of production.
