Biography
Shell New Zealand credits Chairman and General Manager Rob Jager for aggressively pursuing a growth strategy that has seen the company expand its local exploration efforts for the first time in 10 years. Rob’s inspirational local leadership continues to convince Shell Global that investment in New Zealand is worthwhile, despite the country being seen as a ‘hard sell’ due to its tough geology and relative isolation. Rob’s recent efforts have seen the company front exploration in the Great South Basin, where it now operates two permits. Shell took over operatorship of PEP 50119 from partner OMV in April 2012 and followed that up by participating in an adjacent licence awarded in the 2012 blocks offer.
