The New Zealand Oil & Gas Exhibition is coming to New Plymouth for the 9th biennial year. “With two exhibitions being held within the space of three months last year, Swan Exhibitions has decided to alternate and run the show every other year in 2012; 2014 and so on. Exhibitors have applauded the move as it indicates a real respect for the oil and gas industry in New Zealand,” says Events Manager Keith Castellas. With a slightly amended floor plan creating more corner stands and double fascias, the look of the event will be much improved. Swan Exhibitions is buoyed by the initial response with many exhibitors booking their stands early to get the best available positions. “With Radio Network Ltd recently confirming their media partnership agreement the air waves around Taranaki will be ringing with news of the event. Discussions are under way in regard to the possibility of transmitting ‘live’ from the stadium; a first for this exhibition.”
“Swan Exhibitions is thrilled to announce that DEMM Engineering & Manufacturing magazine has once again thrown its support behind the event by becoming the print media partner for the show. DEMM with their range of associated publications will no doubt give the expo even greater coverage,” says Keith Castellas. With a print media campaign of half page, full colour ads in the Taranaki Daily News already booked, Swan Exhibitions has high expectations of attracting industry decision makers to the event. “The Oil & Gas Australia and Oil & Gas Asia magazines as well as the PNG Resources magazine will feature the show in every issue from now until August which will no doubt promote the show on a global level,” says Keith Castellas. “Regular press releases to a targeted audience from a database of thousands worldwide will create extra exposure in an unbridled effort to support the industry.”
The New Zealand Oil & Gas Exhibition 2012 takes place at the TSB Stadium in New Plymouth from August 8th to 9th 2012.
