Todd Energy

With over 30 years of experience developing and operating significant energy assets, Todd Energy has been a pioneer in the New Zealand natural gas exploration and production industry. Today, Todd Energy produces around one-third of New Zealand’s natural gas from its onshore natural gas fields.

Fields and equipment

Todd Energy holds interests in producing fields that contribute to a third of New Zealand’s annual natural gas production. 

Through its subsidiary Marokopa Drilling, Todd Energy owns a suite of specialised well servicing equipment, including the Big Ben drilling rig, Coiled Tubing Unit and Hydraulic Workover Unit. This equipment not only supports Todd Energy projects but also aids in development and decommissioning activities for other energy producers (including geothermal) in New Zealand and Australia.
