It’s been a while since we’ve seen this much muscle around the QER carpark! We were recently very pleased to host a couple of skilled and dedicated groups at our New Fuels Development Facility

This coming week is NAIDOC week. In the Gladstone area where most of QER’s activities are centred, the First Nations Bailai, Gurang, Gooreng Gooreng and Taribelang Bunda peoples are the traditional custodians.

Sunday Morning: just a hint of chill in the air under the crisp blue sky. We made our way along the verdant paths of the Toondoon Botanic Gardens, with a spring in our steps and a song in our hearts….

QER recently had a group of visitors to our site from the U.S. and Canada. The group were keen to see our plant and infrastructure and were interested in finding out more about QER’s work in the local community.

Easter has come and gone and now I am looking at the scales again after the Easter Bunny visit and eating my body weight in chocolate. It is also a great time to reflect on the past week of activities in CQ

You might have heard about the two tourists who recently got lost on Cape York and only luckily managed to find their way to safety. I reminded me how important it is to have a back up – a “Plan B” if you like – when the stakes are high.

We have been carrying out lab trials over the last few weeks to test different process conditions which will help to maximise the energy efficiency of QER’s oil production process and minimise emissions.

It’s that time of year again where we revive our New Year traditions. There are some pretty interesting ones around the world.
