Section 30 Payments to petroleum production licence holders etc.
Where for any chargeable period for the purposes of a licence granted under section 2 of the 1934 Act any person has been required to deliver petroleum to the Secretary of State under the terms of that licence, subsection (3) of section 41 of the 1975 Act (repayment of royalty payments to facilitate or maintain the development of the petroleum resources of the United Kingdom) shall have effect as if for that period that person had paid to the Secretary of State by way of royalty such sum, or (where he has been required to deliver some but not all of the petroleum which he could have been required to deliver) such additional sum, as he would have been required to pay under the terms of the licence if he had not been required to deliver the petroleum.
Subsections (1) and (2) of the said section 41 (payments in pursuance of participation agreements) and, in subsection (4) of that section, the words “or an order made by virtue of this section” shall cease to have effect.
