In FY 2007, domestic and foreign co. received over $75 billion from the sale of oil and gas produced from fed. lands and waters. These co. paid the fed. gov¿t. $9 billion in royalties for this dev¿t. The gov¿t. also collects other revenues, and the sum of all revenues received is referred to as the ¿gov¿t. take (GT).¿ The terms and conditions under which the gov¿t. collects these revenues are referred to as the ¿oil and gas fiscal system (OGFS).¿ This report: (1) evaluates GT and the attractiveness for investors of the fed. oil and gas fiscal system; (2) evaluates how the absence of flexibility in this system has led to large foregone revenues; and (3) assesses what has been done to monitor the performance and appropriateness of the OGFS.

Gerald D. Nash offers a balanced survey on American oil policies over a seventy-five year span, and places in historical perspective the controversies of government- business relations that have resulted from oil depletion and surplus allowances. Focusing on a single industry, Nash provides a valuable study on the government's role in private economic activity. He concludes that Americans have given the government great power in regulating the nation's industries, and in particular, as they relate to defense considerations, and the laws of supply and demand within American borders, and internationally.

Oil, gas and mineral deposits are a substantial part of the wealth of many countries, not least in developing and emerging market economies. Harnessing some part of that wealth for fiscal purposes is critical for economic development: in few areas of economic life are the returns to good policy so large, or mistakes so costly.
