Okla. Admin. Code § 710:45-9-101

Current through Vol. 42, No. 4, November 1, 2024
Section 710:45-9-101 - Definitions

The following words and terms, when used in this Chapter, shall have the following meaning unless the context clearly indicates otherwise:

"Overhead costs" mean the actual direct labor incurred on the exempt facility compared to the total direct labor incurred by the producer as a whole. Allowable overhead costs shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the total direct marketing costs and depreciation associated with the marketing equipment.

"Marketing costs" are non-production related costs incurred by the producer to enable the transport of gas from the well to the market, including costs for compressing, dehydrating and sweetening the gas sold; and delivering the gas to the purchaser. Appendix A of this Chapter provides a list of costs by category, identifying which costs are allowable as marketing costs. Whether the cost is deductible or not will often depend upon exactly how the item is used. If the cost is deductible, it must then be determined whether the item should be expensed or depreciated.

"Marketing facilities" include but are not limited to flow lines or gathering systems from the separator to the purchaser's transmission line, compressor stations, dehydration units, line heaters (after the separator) and sweetening facilities.
