Are we stabilising NZ’s energy supply? We sit down with Rob Buchanan, CEO, to explore Channel Infrastructure’s transformation from a refinery to a critical import terminal. Major clients include BP and ExxonMobil, with over 300 million litres of fuel at their Marsden Point site.

How does Rob plan to improve New Zealand's fuel security? What’s his take on energy demands from emerging tech like AI? Is biofuel the next big thing?

Hear about plans to develop Channel Infrastructure's land and pipeline assets into a new ‘energy precinct’, potentially bringing 20,000 jobs to Northland during its build phase. 

Plus, how Rob plans to keep delivering dividends to shareholders while pursuing big growth projects.
