This Just In: More Oil and Gas Law Resources

Oil and gas law : a legal research guide / by Lauren E. Schroeder  will help you find relevant statutes, cases, regulations, agency materials and secondary sources for research in the growing area of oil and gas law.  The book focuses on domestic oil and gas law, but also covers sources related to oil pollution and introductory information on international oil and gas law research.

BNA Tax Management Portfolios  are accessible remotely and in the law school to law students and faculty as part of the library’s BNA databases.  Several of these address taxation issues in the oil and gas industry, including:

• Oil and Gas Transactions – examines the federal tax law involved in acquiring and operating various types of interests in oil and gas properties.
• Tax Incentives for Production and Conservation of Energy and Natural Resources – discusses income tax provisions designed to encourage production of energy resources and conservation of energy and other natural resources.

(While the BNA Tax Managment Portfolios are not new to the library, they are definitely worth pointing out.)
