Page 34, Appendix - Implementation Modalities of Wealth Sharing Agreement Definition and Calculation of Net Oil Revenue
1. General Definitions: (a) Cost Oil: It is a percentage from the daily production to cover the production cost (exploration, development and operating cost). Exploration and development costs are classified as capital amortized within four years. The operating cost is paid annually. If the cost oil is greater than the recoverable cost (actual cost) the difference (Excess Oil) will be added to the government share. If recoverable cost is greater than the cost oil then the difference shall be carried over for the next year. However the Division of Excess Oil between the Government and Contractors is subject to the variables of each agreement.
Page 34, Appendix - Implementation Modalities of Wealth Sharing Agreement Definition and Calculation of Net Oil Revenue
1. General Definitions: (b) Profit Oil: It is the remaining balance from the daily production after deducting the cost oil.
Page 34, Appendix - Implementation Modalities of Wealth Sharing Agreement Definition and Calculation of Net Oil Revenue
1. General Definitions: (c) Government Share: It is the percentage share of the government from the profit oil after deducting the contractor's share that is subject to contract agreements. It increases with the increases in production.

Appendix
Implementation Modalities of Wealth Sharing Agreement Definition and Calculation of Net Oil Revenue
1. General Definitions:
(a) Cost Oil:
It is a percentage from the daily production to cover the production cost (exploration, development and operating cost).
Exploration and development costs are classified as capital cost amortized within four years.
The operating cost is paid annually.
If the cost oil is greater than the recoverable cost (actual cost) the difference (Excess Oil) will be added to the government share.
If recoverable cost is greater than the cost oil then the difference shall be carried over for the next year.
However the Division of Excess Oil between the Government and Contractors is subject to the variables of each agreement.
(b) Profit Oil:
It is the remaining balance from the daily production after deducting the cost oil.
(c) Government Share:
It is the percentage share of the government from the profit oil after deducting the contractor' s share that is subject to contract agreements.
It increases with the increase in production.
(d) Government Entitlement:
It consists, at Intake Point, of (Government Share plus excess oil plus under lifting less over lifting).
Part of the Government Entitlement is either used for local refineries or for export.
(e) Intake Point:
is the injection point between the pipeline network operated by contractor under the Agreement and the transportation system operated by or under the control of the transporter.
2. Calculation of Government Net Oil Revenue:
Government Entitlement x Export price3
Less Tariff (transport/pipeline fee)
Less Management fee
Equal Government net oil revenue
3. Calculation of Oil Revenue Stabilization Fund:
Government Net Oil Revenue from export
Less Actual Export Quantities x benchmark price
Equal Total Oil Revenue Stabilization Fund
4. Government Net Oil Revenue Available for Allocation:
Government net oil revenue
3 Export shall be valued at the actual Free On Board (FOB) export price and oil delivered to the refineries shall be valued at the average FOB export price of the last calendar month.
