Mr. Skeet

asked the Secretary of State for Energy whether his Department has made a study of the New Zealand Government's project to provide gasoline and its co-product, olefins, from natural gas through the use of zeolite catalysts for the dehydration of methanol; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Gray

My Department has details of the New Zealand Government's project for the production of gasoline from the Maui gas field, using the Mobil process, and is keeping a close watch on its progress.
