As explained in the Approach and Methodology Chapter for 2017, reconciliation of 2017 payments to the Oil and Gas Authority (OGA) was targeted.
Only companies with material payments to HMRC, TCE or CES had their payments to the OGA reconciled, with unilateral reporting of receipts by the OGA for the remaining companies.
This meant that some companies with total payments of OGA Levy in 2017 greater than the £86,000 materiality threshold fell out of scope of the reconciliation process.
The final column indicates where payments were included in the reconciliation exercise.
In a very few cases the payment reported by the licensee was higher or lower than that reported by the OGA.
In all cases the reconciled figures were within the (lower of £10,000 or 1%) materiality thresholds agreed by the MSG.
