We sleep at a stormy west coast, Tasman sea. In Oakura. The sand is black, but you are not at all getting dirty from it. We make long evening walks over the black sand.. And in the morning, like every morning we make our run to keep our condition. Nice waves, a surf Walhalla.
We visit the Maui gas production processing plants, one time one of the biggest gas fields in the world. It was 300 billion cubic meters big. Later a second field next to the old one was discovered, which produced 1.3 million ton crude oil as well. It is stored on a floating tanker. The end of productions looms, however. The technology used is from Shell, Holland.
