As part of our commitment to ongoing development of Australian and New Zealand businesses as well as the global coaching profession, Shirlaws coaches regularly produce and publish research papers and business reports.
Where we believe that research will be of interest and relevance to the wider business community we will highlight them here, and also through our Newsletter, LinkedIn and Twitter networks. Full reports, some of which have been developed in conjunction with the Master of Business Coaching program, are available to purchase by contacting Shirlaws direct or downloading our Research Paper order form.
Coal Bed Methane to Liquefied Natural Gas – Queensland’s New Industry
The Australian national resource development landscape is about to move to a new phase of business opportunity for Australian operators, particularly for Queensland.
Queensland has the largest portion of the increasing volume of known Australian Coal Bed Methane (CBM) reserves. It is naturally poised to cash in most on this economic boom over the next 10-15 years.
But is Queensland or Australian business ready to take advantage of this opportunity?
While this opportunity represents a boom for Australian suppliers and Service providers, for Australian Small and Mid-Tier businesses that are currently in, or entering this market, many challenges exist for development and operations.
