HNZ Purchases The Neil O'Connor Trust Hangar


As of 1 April 2009, HNZ Ltd., has purchased the Neil O'conner Trust Hangar next to our installation in New Plymouth.





This hangar is a fine logistical addition to our current infrastructure and will serve many facets of our engineering operations in place.




Currently, a 3000 hour check is being completed on one of our Bell 412's in this hangar. Future renovations and plans are unfolding for this multipurpose hangar.

Farewell Brendan - We will miss you!!

You can always tell how much you are loved by the amount of people who attend your leaving dinner - Brendan was no exception.

Brendan Cahill's going away dinner was hosted at the Aborio. Well attended and full of cheer, friends, family and co workers joined in saying "adios". Brendan is heading to

our operation in Australia and will be piloting AW139's in Karratha.

You are well loved and your attention to detail, your work ethic, and your loyalty will certainly be missed. Fair winds!!

HNZ Golf Team Finishes Strong!

HNZ was pleased to represent hole 14 (par 3) at Westown Golf Course, New Plymouth for the 6th annual SPE (Society of Petroleum Engineers) Golf Tournement. The primary aim of the tournement was to bring people together from the oil and gas industry and spending a wonderful afternoon on the golf course.

The tournement also raised funds for the SPE(NZ) enducational trust scholorship. The objectives of this scholorship are to encourage high calibre New Zealand under-graduate students to persue engineering careers in the oil and gas sector as well as improve the image of the industry.

HNZ Golf team finished 5 under for the day - 10th out of 25 teams. Looking forward to next year. Maybe we will have TWO teams. Congratualations!!

MOVEMBER!!

Well, as you all know, it's Movember time again! Time for the guys to grow your Mo's. Let's see who can get the best by the end of Movember.

Men's health is a major issue. Did you know:

  • Depression affects 1 in 10 men....Most people who experience depression make a full recovery. The first step is seeking help.
  • Last year in New Zealand 2,700 men were diagnosed with prostate cancer and more than 600 died of prostate cancer - (that's nearly two each day).

The money raised by Movember is used to raise awareness of men's health issues and donated to the Cancer Society of New Zealand and the Mental Health Foundation of New Zealand. These two charities will use the money raised to fund research and increase support networks for those affected with prostate cancer and experiencing depression.

Team HNZ NP has registered on the nationwide website. If you want to collect a donation register form, please see Trudy.

So grow your Mo's boys!!!!
