ANZ Terminals Pty Limited (ANZT) has entered into an agreement with Support Terminals Operating Partnership, LP (STOP), which is the registered holder and beneficial owner of all the shares in Kaneb Terminals Limited (Kaneb), to acquire all the shares in Kaneb. By virtue of the acquisition, ANZT will also acquire an interest in properties located at Lower Hutt, Mt Maunganui, New Plymouth, and Auckland. The Lower Hutt and Auckland properties are sensitive land for the purposes of the Overseas Investment Act 2005.
STOP owns and operates petroleum products, terminals, and pipelines in the United States of America, the United Kingdom, Canada, the Netherlands, and the Netherlands Antilles. STOP is selling its shares in Kaneb as the relevant assets do not fit its strategic vision. ANZT is entering into the transaction because of its knowledge of the assets and management.
The proposal is likely to result in the following benefits:
the creation of new job opportunities in New Zealand; and
the introduction into New Zealand of additional investment for development purposes.
