We drill into the world of oil and gas exploration with Andrew Jefferies, Chief Executive of Echelon.  Andrew shares why  the company has left  the NZX for the ASX and its rebrand from NZ Oil and Gas to Echelon. He discusses the impact of the former government’s decision on banning oil and gas exploration, and Echelon’s decision to invest now that decision has been reversed.  While more investors demand an ESG (environmental, social and governance) approach to investing, we hear about the balance between transitioning to cleaner energy sources and meeting global energy demands.
