This requires looking at an investor’s desired income, taking into account all costs and duties and putting these against market value, also looking at how much infrastructure is already there. This isn’t a simple case or addition. Normally, a property gains value when infrastructure is presently relevant to an owner’s endeavor. Some companies argue against that saying a property, used already by another oil company, merely retains its value when infrastructure like oil wells are replaced. A county discussing such a case can refuse to hear the appeal of the concerned oil company. This highlights the big difference in how government and industry determine value.
