AS 43.55.016. Gas Production Tax.

(a) There is levied upon the producer of gas a tax for all gas produced from each lease or property in the state, less any gas the ownership or right to which is exempt from taxation. The tax is equal to either the percentage-of-value amount calculated under (b) of this section or the cents-per-Mcf amount calculated under (c) of this section, whichever is greater, multiplied by the economic limit factor determined for gas production of the lease or property under AS 43.55.013. If the amounts calculated under (b) and (c) of this section are equal, the amount calculated under (b) of this section shall be treated as if it were the greater for purposes of this section.

(b) The percentage-of-value amount equals 10 percent of the gross value at the point of production of the taxable gas produced from the lease or property.

(c) The cents-per-Mcf amount equals $.064 per 1,000 cubic feet of taxable gas produced from the lease or property.
