IZ 2: Petroleum mining companies: treatment of payments from shareholders
or “Rules for shareholder payments to oil companies no longer apply”

You could also call this:

“ Removed rules about how oil companies could use their financial losses ”

This part of the law used to talk about how petroleum mining companies could use their loss balances. However, it has been removed from the law. It was taken out on 1 April 2018. This means that the rules that were once here no longer apply. If you want to know more about how petroleum mining companies handle their losses now, you might need to look at other parts of the tax law.
