Digest
SB 1158 repeals the temporary tax reduction for high-cost gas production, which previously allowed producers to receive tax breaks on certain high-cost natural gas extraction projects. The bill ensures that any gas produced on or after the effective date (September 1, 2025) is subject to the standard severance tax rate and eliminates preferential treatment for certain wells. The repeal does not affect taxes accrued before the bill’s implementation but prevents future tax reductions for high-cost gas​.
