Should I list my producer or taxpayer code in the Producer Code Column if I am a take-in-kind working interest owner or a purchaser who is not the producer of record for this field, but I am paying the tax on behalf of the producer for leases in a field?


No. Do not list your producer or taxpayer code in this column if you are not the producer of record for this field. Obtain the code assigned to the producer of record for the field on whose behalf you are paying the oil severance tax and list that producer’s code in this column.
