The Retail Bookbuild price per new share (Bookbuild Price) will be equal to or above the offer price of

$1.60 per new share (Offer Price). Eligible retail shareholders who applied for additional new shares

(Additional New Shares) in the Retail Bookbuild will be allocated shares at the Bookbuild Price

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.
