Chapter 9. Oil and Gas Properties 901. Guidelines for Ascertaining the Fair Market Value of Oil and Gas Properties A. The assessment of oil and gas properties shall be made in accordance with the Louisiana Constitution of 1974, Article VII, Section 18, and in accordance with guidelines adopted by the Tax Commission and applied uniformly throughout the state. B. The Well 1. The well includes all of the equipment and any other taxable property located below the wellhead, as well as the casinghead, wellhead and/or xmas tree. 2. Each string of casing runs from the surface down. There will always be at least two sizes of casing; the surface pipe which seals off fresh water zones, and the production string. The larger surface pipe usually extends only a few feet, depending on the depth of usable underground water, while the small production string extends to the depth of the oil producing formations. However, in some wells, and, in particular the deeper wells, it may be necessary to set more than two strings of casing, each of which extends to a specific depth. 3. Each well is assessed in accordance with guidelines establishing "fair market value". C. Explanations Inactive wells are wells that are shut-in. Shut-in status becomes effective on the date the application for shut-in status is filed, consistent with the Louisiana Office of Conservation requirements. Injection Wells--wells completed as single or wells reclassified by the Louisiana Office of Conservation after a conversion of another well. Wells are used for gas and water injection for production purposes, also used for disposal wells. Multiple Completions--wells consisting of more than one producing zone. Deepest or primary completion may or may not be the base well number depending upon the Louisiana Office of Conservation permits and classification. Production Depth--is the depth from the surface to the active lower perforation in each producing zone in which the well is completed. As an example - a well completed in three separate zones is a triple completion and will have three different production depths as determined by the depth of the active lower perforation for each completion. Provided, however, that in the case of wells drilled with a minimum of 80 OG - 1 (2017) Page 8 of 34

The determination of whether a well is a Region 2 or Region 3 well is ascertained from its onshore/offshore status as designated on the Permit to Drill or Amended Permit to Drill form (Location of Wells Section), located at the Department of Natural Resources as of January 1 of each tax year. Each assessor is required to confirm the onshore/offshore status of wells located within their parish by referring to the Permit to Drill or Amended Permit to Drill form on file at the Department of Natural Resources.

Chapter 25. General Business Assets 2501. Guidelines for Ascertaining the Fair Market Value of Office Furniture and Equipment, Machinery and Equipment and Other Assets Used In General Business Activity A. Because the information necessary to use the market and income approaches to value is generally not available, the fair market value of office furniture and equipment, machinery and equipment and other assets used in general business activity can generally best be estimated by the cost approach. This approach allows the assessors across the State of Louisiana to fairly and uniformly assess business and industrial personal property, while, at the same time, allowing each assessor the discretion that is necessary to accommodate modernization, facelifting of equipment, and obsolescence. B. The following data is required to use the cost approach to value: 1. total acquisition costs of equipment including freight, installation, taxes and fees, as well as, date of purchase; 2. an index that adjusts the cost for the effects of inflation; 3. the average expected economic life of the equipment; 4. a typical depreciation schedule for the equipment; and 5. information to determine external (economic) and/or functional obsolescence, if any. C. The assessor should obtain from the taxpayer the acquisition cost of the equipment, the actual age of the equipment, and any information that may reflect on the average economic life and fair market value of the equipment. These regulations, as adopted by the Louisiana Tax Commission, contain guidelines for average economic life, typical depreciation schedules and cost indices. D. Three different procedures are defined for establishing fair market value when using the cost approach: Procedure 1 shall be used for the typical business and industrial personal property which has an average economic life equal to the guidelines, and that has not incurred any external (economic) and/or functional obsolescence. Alternative Procedure 2 should only be used for the business and industrial personal property which has an average life that is either lower or higher than the guidelines. Alternative Procedure 3 should only be used for the business and industrial personal property that has incurred external (economic) and/or functional obsolescence. An assessor or taxpayer wishing to deviate from Procedure 1 shall bear the burden of proving that the alternative procedure elected establishes the fair market value of the property.
