Well, 2025 has arrived! Christmas is now but a past memory and some of us will no doubt be busy planning goals for the year ahead.

It’s that time of year again when we all start looking towards the festive season. Racking our brains about what to buy loved ones and what to eat for Christmas lunch.

We recently recognized the need to expand our team due to additional research and development work. We are lucky enough to have some fantastic talent around Gladstone.

Footy finals season got me reflecting on how powerful it is when a team just clicks. Of course, the top teams have some very talented individuals but somehow when a team is truly a team, they are magically able to make 1+1=3

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

Just like me, I imagine there are a lot of people cheering on the Aussies at the Olympics. I still find it fantastic that such a small population of people can provide so many champions across many different sports on the world stage.

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.
