Executive summary
Greymouth Petroleum Limited (GPL)
Neil Chesterton and his fellow Inglewood volunteers never imagined they’d get an award for having fun in their local reserve. So winning a Taranaki Regional Council Environmental Action in Biodiversity Award last year was a welcome surprise for the Restore PG Nops Reserve Care Group, who put in countless hours weeding, planting and trapping pests. “Getting the award helped us realise that this fun time we have each month in our reserve is appreciated and noticed by others,” Mr Chesterton says.

What are the marine drilling activities?
The drilling activities in question relate to exploration and development of oil and gas resources
within the Taranaki Regional Council’s coastal management area (i.e. within the territorial seas—
12 mile zone). Exploration, development and production can result in discharges of wastes,

Growth and Development
Enviroschools Taranaki
Over the last few years we have been working with our funding partners to firm up what Enviroschools
looks like in Taranaki. All three District Councils have increased their funding and Taranaki Regional
Council in turn has similarly also increased support for the kaupapa.
During this time of change we also mihi to Toi Foundation who kept
New
Zealand. Oil and gas exploration and development has been on-going in the region for
nearly 150 years. Since the first well in 1865, over 600 exploration and production wells
have been drilled. While the majority of the basin is offshore, the majority of the
producing wells are onshore. The geology of the basin is derived from diverse episodes
of tectonic activity. The Cretaceous to Quaternary basin fill is up to 9,000 m thick in
places.
The modern era of exploration began in New

Process description 1.2
Background 1.2.1
The Taranaki Basin occupies an area of approximately 100,000 square kilometres and
is the most explored and commercially successful hydrocarbon producing area in
New Zealand. Oil and gas exploration and development has been on-going in the
region for nearly 150 years. Since the first well in 1865, over 600 exploration and
production wells have been drilled. While the majority of the basin is offshore, the
majority of
resource consent , a rule in a regional plan,
or by national regulations.
The Council determined that the application to discharge emissions to air associated
with the exploration activities at the Mangahewa-C wellsite fell within Rule 9 of the
Regional Air Quality Plan (RAQP).
