Greymouth Petroleum picks up Shell oil and gas field

Despite losing out to Shell, Greymouth has benefited from the Fletcher sale by picking up some of the assets the Commerce Commission ordered Shell to dispose of.

In a statement Mr Dunphy said the company also hoped to attract a number of key former Fletcher Energy oil and gas professionals to join its Taranaki team. This latest acquisition still requires approvals and consents but Greymouth expects the deal to go through within the next 30 days.
