Key Tax Benefits Explained
-
IRC 469(c)(3) is the foundational provision that allows non-operated working interest to offset ordinary income (W2, 1099, bonuses, etc).
States that a working interest in an oil or gas property is treated as a non-passive activity but applies only when the interest is held directly or through a general partner structure.
-
IRC 263(c) allows taxpayers with a working interest to elect to expense 100% of the intangible drilling costs in the year incurred.
Intangible costs generally make up ~80% of the development cost and applies to items with no salvage value (labor, services, fuel, etc.)
-
Tangible well equipment (pipe, pumps, facilities, etc.) can be capitalized and depreciated under MACRS.
Passing of the Big Beautiful Bill in 2025 re-instated tangible costs for oil & gas wells as qualifying property, therefore making the costs eligible for year 1 bonus depreciation.
IRC 167 - Depreciation / IRC 168 - MACRS / IRC 168(k) - Bonus Depreciation
-
IRC 613 allows for 15% of properties gross income each year to be sheltered from income tax (subject to certain limits).
Total depletion allowed over time can exceed the investor’s original capital investment and continues after capital costs have been recovered.
