COMPANY HISTORY
History in brief...
Hunt Energy & Mineral Co Australia Pty Ltd was founded in 1996 to
drill a program of wells for Nelson Bunker Hunt from Texas
in the USA. The company imported a Drilling Rig (Rig
#2) into Australia specifically for this purpose. Hunt Energy
drilled wells
in South Australia 400 klms west of Moomba and in
Queensland in the Winton area.
In 1999
ownership of the Company changed and with it brought a new sense of
planning and direction. The Company
tendered for and won contracts to drill in the
Fairview area in Queensland. A second Drilling Rig, (Rig #3) was
purchased and
went to work to complete an extensive drilling
project in tandem with Rig #2 at Fairview in Queensland.
Hunt
has also drilled Wells in the Eromanga Basin in Queensland, the Cooper
Basin and Stansbury Basin in South Australia,
the Gippsland Basin in Victoria and NSW.
Hunt
Energy's commitment to the Oil & Gas Industry has seen the company grow
over the past 10 years into a competitive
and efficient drilling Contractor.
