For exploratory wells when monies are at risk and not passive for IRS purposes, depending on the financial situation of the investor, the IDC ( Intangible Drilling Cost ) may be expensed. The TDC ( Tangible Drilling Cost ) may be capitalized.
As a rule of thumb, about 75%-95% (give or take 10%) of the total cost for drilling, completing, and equipping the well falls under the IDC and may be deductible the year expensed. The 25% (give or take 10%) of the total cost of the well falls under TDC and may be depreciated over seven years.
It is advised that each individual investor has their own advisor concerning these matters as it relates to their personal situation. For tax filing purposes, the oil and gas company offering the prospect will provide the investor with a statement showing how much money invested went for IDC and how much went for TDC.
By electing at risk and not passive participation, intangible drilling and development cost may be deducted as an expense for federal income tax purposes. The prepayment of intangible drilling cost is generally allowed if drilling occurs within 90 days after the close of the taxable year in which payments are made.
