  • The New Zealand Gas Story
    FRONT COVER: A new generation of smart gas meters. AN EDMI Helios residential gas meter currently being trialled in New Zealand by Vector Advanced Metering Services. Below it is a graphic read-out of a day’s consumption from one of the households in the trial, together with other usage data that allows the householder to track consumption patterns and facilitate demand management. These meters are manufactured in Malaysia and are starting to be deployed in Europe. Images courtesy of Vector Advanced Metering Services Message from the Chief Executive Gas Industry Co is pleased to publish the third edition of the New Zealand Gas Story. This Report includes developments in the policy, regulatory and operational framework of the industry since the previous edition in April 2014. Gas remains an essential component of New Zealand’s energy supply. It underpins electricity supply security and is the primary energy for many of New Zealand’s largest industries. A number of these are key exporters and for some gas is the effectively the only competitive energy option for their operations. Gas is also a fuel of choice for over 264,000 residential and small business consumers. The gas sector in New Zealand continued to evolve over the past year. A number of indicators remain positive, but the industry is facing some headwinds: the overall market has grown on the back of a return to full three-train methanol production at Methanex. increased petrochemical demand is offset by a continuing trend towards a gas ‘peaking’ role in electricity generation, with a resulting further reduction in gas use for baseload generation.

  • THE NEW ZEALAND GAS STORY the State and Performance of the New Zealand Gas Industry
    THE NEW ZEALAND GAS STORY The state and performance of the New Zealand gas industry SIXTH EDITION | DECEMBER 2017 Message from the Chief Executive Gas Industry Co is pleased to publish this sixth edition of the New Zealand Gas Story. It includes developments in the policy, regulatory and operational framework of the industry since the previous edition was published in July 2017. The New Zealand gas industry continues to make a significant contribution to New Zealand’s energy supply and is performing well against Government policy and consumer expectations. However, as Gas Industry Co has been signalling for some time, the role of gas in New Zealand has been changing. This has particularly been driven by three interrelated factors: development of new energy technologies and associated consumer preferences; low upstream investment in a low oil price environment over recent years, with resulting impacts on gas reserves; and developing responses to climate change. The key additional factor which will drive further change is the developing policies of the new Labour- led Coalition Government. Climate change policies included in the new Government’s list of priorities will undoubtedly be a significant influence on upstream and other investment. Coalition agreements provide for introducing a Zero Carbon Act and an independent Climate Commission, based on the recommendations of the Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment, and for gradual inclusion of the agriculture sector in the Emissions Trading Scheme. The Labour/Greens Agreement includes requesting the Climate Commission to plan the transition to 100 percent renewable electricity by 2035 in a normal hydrological year. For the moment, gas contributes around 22 percent of New Zealand’s primary energy, and provides over 277,000 New Zealand homes and businesses with secure and affordable energy.

  • THE NEW ZEALAND GAS STORY the State and Performance of the New Zealand Gas Industry 2Nd Edition - December 2013
    THE NEW ZEALAND GAS STORY The State and Performance of the New Zealand Gas Industry 2nd Edition - December 2013 186219.4 186219.4 Message from the Chief Executive Gas Industry Co is pleased to publish the second edition of the New Zealand Gas Story. This Report includes significant developments in the policy, regulatory and operational framework of the industry since the first edition was published in February 2013. Gas remains an essential component of New Zealand’s energy supply, and since February we have seen a number of important developments in the gas market, including: significant growth in gas use, with annual gas consumption heading back over 200PJ for the first time since 2002; changes in major uses of gas reflected in rapid restoration of methanol production, partially offset by reduced gas-fired electricity generation; the emergence of two separate wholesale gas spot market platforms, indicating a further maturing of the market; and the commencement of a new pricing and information disclosure regime applying to some gas industry participants, introduced by the Commerce Commission under Part 4A of the Commerce Act 1986. At the same time, expectations for new upstream investment and regulation augers well for ongoing future supply, and existing gas infrastructure is likely to be adequate for the market’s needs until a significant new find triggers the next step-change. Internationally, gas continues to help countries reduce their reliance on more harmful fossil fuels and to transition to a cleaner, more environmentally sustainable energy future. The Report generally continues to paint a picture of an industry that is in good health and on track in terms of consumer needs and Government policy objectives for the sector.

  • Enterprise & Energy Hydraulic Fracturing
    Enterprise & Energy Hydraulic Fracturing Submission to the Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment 11 October 2012 Dr Jan Wright Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment PO Box 10-241 WELLINGTON 6143 Dear Dr Wright SUBMISSION TO THE PARLIAMENTARY COMMISSIONER FOR THE ENVIRONMENT’S INVESTIGATION INTO HYDRAULIC FRACTURING IN NEW ZEALAND 1. Introduction 1.1 Todd Energy (Todd) welcomes the opportunity to provide input into your investigation regarding the use of hydraulic fracturing in New Zealand. We hope this investigation will provide the clarity required to properly inform the public on both the merits and perceived risks of hydraulic fracturing in a New Zealand context. 1.2 Todd wants to improve the public discourse on these issues and is strongly committed to assisting in that by providing full transparency about our hydraulic fracturing operations in New Zealand. In that spirit, we have endeavoured to provide a plain language, comprehensive picture of our operations with considerable background detail. We will also make this submission available to the public. 1.3 We reiterate our invitation to you to visit our Taranaki wellsites and observe a hydraulic fracturing operation, and would welcome the opportunity to provide any further information that may be helpful to your investigation. 1.4 There are important differences between types of fracture treatments, target formations, and the depths at which they are performed, and these matters are addressed in considerable detail in the submission as they impact significantly on the level of any possible risks. 1.5 Todd’s hydraulic fracturing operations are in line with international best practice, and have developed and will continue to be refined through a process of continuous improvement.

  • Breathing New Life Into Postmortem Analysis: the Testing And
    BREATHING NEW LIFE INTO POSTMORTEM ANALYSIS: THE TESTING AND FORMALIZATION OF A METHODOLOGY FOR THE IDENTIFICATION OF KEY FAILURE MODES IN DRY HOLES by Jack M. Samis A thesis submitted to the Faculty and the Board of Trustees of the Colorado School of Mines in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science (Geology). Golden, Colorado Date __________________________ Signed: __________________________ Jack M. Samis Signed: __________________________ Alexei V. Milkov Thesis Advisor Golden, Colorado Date __________________________ Signed: __________________________ Dr. Steve Enders Professor and Head Department of Geology and Geological Engineering ii ABSTRACT The petroleum exploration industry relies on various subsurface data and interpretations to minimize risk and uncertainties and maximize gains. Dry holes provide a wealth of useful subsurface information. However, far too often a company drills a dry hole and either does not conduct a postdrill analysis (postmortem), or incorrectly determines the failure mode. The purpose of this study is to formalize and test the applicability of a postdrill methodology (a decision tree) that helps identify the main failure mode for dry segments tested by conventional wells. Use of this decision tree allows the interpreter to evaluate and identify specific failure modes such as reservoir presence, reservoir deliverability, structure, seal, source maturity, and migration. The decision tree was tested on three exploration wells drilled in the Taranaki Basin, offshore New Zealand. Each segment’s key failure mode was identified based on the comprehensive, integrated evaluation of both pre- and postdrill reports, seismic data, well logs, geochemical analysis of gases and source rocks, and other materials freely available through the New Zealand government.

  • Law and Policy for Accelerating Petroleum Exploration and Development in New Zealand
    II Law and policy for accelerating petroleum exploration and development in New Zealand D. E. Fisher* I. INTRODUCTION The efficacy of petroleum exploration and production decision-making depends as much upon economic, commercial, technical and political factors as upon the legal system. Legal instruments of development, control and regulation, never­ theless, represent in a very real and practical sense the major impediments to effective decision-making. Just as the law is merely one among several aspects of petroleum development, so the legal system itself seeks to achieve or permit a compromise among several potentially conflicting interests recognised by the law: for example, the entrepreneur, the financier, the local community, other community interests, the various departments of government and indeed the national interest at large. Each of these interests will probably be seeking to achieve different objectives: some of these objectives may be consistent, others may be in conflict. Two crucial questions are who owns the petroleum and who is entitled to develop it. Equally important for both owner and developer are the procedures and policies that may constrain the public regulation or control of the development of the resource. Thus there are always at least two facets of the legal system: on the one hand the creative function that enables development positively to take place and on the other hand the restraining function that disables development or requires it to proceed in a certain way. How is the balance between these different aspects of the legal system struck in New Zealand? II. THE HISTORY OF PETROLEUM DEVELOPMENT IN NEW ZEALAND A.
