Part 2: Further functions of the OGA relating to offshore petroleum Chapter 2: Disputes Section 20: Reference of disputes to the OGA
Only relevant parties may refer a dispute to the OGA, though section 20 makes provision for the OGA to consider a dispute on its own initiative, which it may choose to do if a complaint is raised by a party to the dispute who is not a relevant party.
	Subsection (2) provides for the OGA to specify requirements for how a referral should be made and the OGA must publish these requirements, and any amendments to them, bringing them to the attention of likely affected persons.
