About Channel Infrastructure NZ
Channel Infrastructure is New Zealand’s largest fuel import terminal, storing and distributing 40% of
New Zealand’s transport fuel, including 80% of New Zealand’s jet fuel. We receive, store, test and
distribute petrol, diesel, and jet fuel that our customers import and supply to Auckland and Northland.
Fuel is imported via our deep-water harbour and jetty infrastructure at Marsden Point and stored in
more than 290 million litres of contracted storage tanks on site. The fuel is then distributed via our 170-
kilometre pipeline to Auckland, or by our customers (bp, Mobil, and Z Energy) via truck into Northland.
We underpin the resilience of New Zealand’s fuel supply chain with our tank capacity, which enables
increased storage of fuel in New Zealand, and through efficient, low-emission distribution of the fuel into
the Auckland market.
Our plan for growth includes supporting fuel resilience for New Zealand through additional fuel storage
on our site, unlocking the strategic value of the Marsden Point Energy Precinct Concept which reflects
the significant role Channel could play in supporting New Zealand’s energy transition – through
potential opportunities including supporting the manufacture of lower-carbon future fuels, as well as a
range of potential energy security opportunities, and exploring expansion beyond Marsden Point
through the acquisition of other terminals infrastructure in New Zealand.
Channel Infrastructure’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Independent Petroleum Laboratory Limited, provides
fuel quality testing services throughout New Zealand.
