Instructions On Filing The
Oil and Gas Producer’s Return
All producers who have an interest in an oil or gas well in the state of Alabama are required to file a monthly producer’s
return regardless of who has responsibility for remitting the actual severance tax. The volumes reported and taxable value
should be actual deliveries and not entitlement. Each month’s related production and sales should be filed on a separate
return. Corrections should be made on a separate amended return for each production month by replacing the previously
filed return with a replacement return and reporting any additional tax due in the “TOTAL TAX REMITTED” box.
The “Amended Return” box must be checked on the O&G Production-1 form.
O&G Production-1 Form
The O&G Production-1 form is a cover sheet for the monthly severance tax return (form O&G Production-2). The individual
counties, municipalities and the tax rates are consolidated on this sheet from the O&G Production-2 form(s). The inventories,
production, and sales are reconciled for all the wells. All purchasers of the products are listed with their respective volumes
and values, for the quantities purchased.
