“Putting the Refinery on your Desktop”

New Zealand Oil Industry

The NZ Oil Industry was deregulated in 1988 - No Protection against Imports

Cushioned by the freight differential (crude vs. products)

NZRC is a tolling operation - do not own any Hydrocarbon Stock

Income generated from a fee based on the differential between the value of Products and Crude

Crude and Product prices are set by the MARKET

NZRC is vulnerable to the US/NZ rate of exchange
