Tax by Industry: Oil & Gas

Publish date:

Decreasing supply, fluctuating demand, uncertain regulations — today's oil and gas companies balance numerous challenges, nearly all with tax implications. Overseas exploration opens up risks and opportunities. Increased regulatory scrutiny raises the bar for compliance. Now more than ever, tax needs to be a part of every key decision.

Merger, acquisition and divestiture activity brings with it the need for due diligence, tax structuring and integration. Multinational offices demand effective tax rate management, including in-depth knowledge of transfer pricing, customs and duty planning, local taxes, global supply chain management and more. Furthermore, the current regulatory climate that’s keeping tax departments busy likely will get more intense. Companies need to keep up with environmental and safety concerns, claim and settlement accounting and Financial Accounting Standards Board's Interpretation No. 48 developments to be prepared for the possibility of increased audits.

If you don’t take action on tax issues, you might be exposing yourself to risk — or overpaying taxes unnecessarily. Our internationally recognized business consultants and tax specialists in Houston, Washington and around the world can help.
