  3. Introduction • Location: • The United Republic of Tanzania (URT) is an East African country bound between latitudes 1° 00’ and 12° 00’ south of the equator and longitudes 29° 50’ and 40°00’ east of the Greenwich meridian. • Population: • 43,739,0001 (2009 estimates) and covers a total area of 947,300 Square Kilometers with land covering approximately 885,800 Square Kilometers. • Political Changes: • Single party rule ended in 1992, Elections are held every five years, Next elections on 31st October, 2010 TANZANIA 3

  4. Introduction • Government System: • The Government of the United Republic of Tanzania is a unitary republic based on multiparty parliamentary democracy. All state authority in the United Republic are exercised and controlled by the Government of the United Republic of Tanzania. • Economic activities: • Agriculture: Principal occupation, 80% of population • Principal food crops: Millet, rice, sorghum, yams, potatoes, cassava, plantain, • Chief cash crops: Coffee, cotton, cashew nuts, spices, sugar, tea, pyrethrum and tobacco • Industries: Relatively small scale (Mineral industry of metals (cobalt, copper and nickel), Gold, diamond, iron and aluminum sheets, cement, gemstones, coal and natural gas) . • Fishing industry: Surrounded by big lakes and costal line. • Tourism: Tourism accounts for 16% to the GNP. Main attractions: mount Kilimanjaro, Island of Zanzibar (Stone Town), national parks (Ngorongoro, Serengeti, Mikumi etc.) Game Reserves (Selous , Gombe, etc.) 4

  5. TPDC’s ROLES The Government of Tanzania, through Tanzania Petroleum Development Corporation (TPDC) is responsible for:- • Exploration for and production of hydrocarbons • Negotiating and entering into PSAs with oil companies for the latter to explore and produce oil and gas • Promoting and monitoring Oil and Gas Exploration activities • Developing and promoting the Gas industry • Keeping and managing database of all E&P data 5

E. 2002] • Model Production Sharing Agreement 2008 (MPSA) • Model PSA Addendum for Natural gas (Deep sea areas) • Income Tax Act 2004 • Summary of the key terms in Tanzania's Model PSA;: • Parties to the ContractThe parties to the Contract shall be the Government of the United Republic of Tanzania, the Tanzania Petroleum Development Corporation, and the oil company. Type of AgreementProduction sharing in which the foreign oil company undertakes the exploration, development and production activities. Contract AreaEach PSA can cover more than one exploration Licence. Term of AgreementExploration period up to 11 years divided into an initial and two renewal periods of 4, 4 and 3 years respectively, Appraisal normally 2 years but more if necessary. Development and Production - 25 years with the possibility of an extension for a further 20 years. 15
