Geographic Location
Marsden Point has direct
access to the Auckland
market via Channel’s 170km
pipeline. The next nearest
alternate Auckland fuel
supply import terminal is
located at Port of Tauranga,
195km from Auckland by
road.
The fuels pipeline from Marsden
Point is the lowest-emission
supply route for transport to
Auckland, and does not
contribute to traffic congestion.
There is no pipeline between Port
of Tauranga and Auckland.
