Omega Oil and Gas Limited CEO & MD Trevor Brown was proud to share Omega’s story at Toowoomba and Surat Basin Enterprise‘s sold-out event last week, with more than 200 people from over 100 businesses coming together at the Miles Historical Village Museum.
Trevor walked through OMA’s positive early results from the Taroom Trough and the role abundant, affordable energy continues to play in underpinning Australia’s prosperity. Equally valuable were the contributions from Scott Hellewell on Arrow Energy‘s Surat Gas Project North, and Gerard Coggan of the Office of the Coordinator-General, who outlined the recently authorised Works Regulation for the Taroom Trough Development Plan and how the CG’s office is coordinating planning to provide a strategic whole-of-basin framework, enabling orderly, efficient and responsible development of oil and gas resources.
These events are a powerful reminder of what’s possible when industry, government and regional communities work together, and conversations throughout the evening reinforced the role the resources sector continues to play in supporting local economies and Australia’s broader energy future.
A huge thank you to TSBE for bringing the right people into the room, to Mayor Andrew Smith and the Western Downs Regional Council, along with the Miles community, for making everyone so welcome.
