MISSION: POSSIBLE
In December 2010 Venture Taranaki, the Regional Development Agency for New Zealand’s foremost energy province,
released The Wealth Beneath Our Feet, a report that for the first time defined the full economic impact of the oil and gas
industry to New Zealand’s economy: $2.5 billion to national GDP and employing 7,700 FTEs.
The report identified that if our oil and gas and support sectors were to extend these figures, a more collaborative
approach to industry growth was required. One of the responses has been the
www.energystream.co.nz
website,
developed by Venture Taranaki in partnership with New Zealand Trade and Enterprise.
The heart of EnergyStream is a comprehensive database of the extensive capabilities of the New Zealand industry.
This publication – the New Zealand Oil and Gas Industry Capabilities Directory – is an overview of those capabilities.
New Zealand is one of the world’s most attractive investment locations for oil and gas exploration. With a supportive
government - at both regional and central levels – progressive permitting structure, an established and innovative
industry, boundless exploration potential, talented people and an unbeatable lifestyle, New Zealand is well and truly open
for business.
Right behind the industry, but at times overshadowed, is an exceptionally talented multi-disciplined supply chain.
This document is a celebration of the innovative companies and the immense capabilities resident within that sector.
While this sector, and indeed the industry itself, is primarily centred on the Taranaki region, an emerging hub and spoke
network is enabling that expertise and experience to ensure best practice and lessons learnt in Taranaki are supporting
new exploration regions throughout New Zealand.
There is also increased scope to extend that flow of ideas and services internationally. For over half a century
New Zealand companies have worked alongside some of the biggest global names in oil and gas, and have demonstrated
a relentless commitment to precision, innovation, health and safety best practice, and responsiveness. Now is the time to
take that approach to the world, and ensure New Zealand, its people, and its companies are at the forefront of the oil and
gas industry.
This publication demonstrates that New Zealand’s people and supply chains are ready. It is time for our oil and gas
industry, and the companies profiled in the following pages and online at
energystream.co.nz
to stand up, work together
and drive the sector and the national economy forward.
