2001 marks the 30th Anniversary of the Company..

    The company, since it started in 1971, has established a significant place for itself in the South East Asian region as a Chemical Manufacturer and Tank Terminal Operator.

    While its principal base is in the Kwinana Industrial zone in Western Australia, steady growth has seen Coogee Chemicals establish manufacturing and tank terminal sites in Queensland, Victoria, New South Wales, Northern Territory and Malaysia.

    Recently, the company has positioned itself to enter "Gas to Liquids" manufacturing and research through the purchase of a Methanol manufacturing facility in Victoria. In addition to this, the purchase of off-shore manufacturing technology and an oil / gas field in the Timor Sea has provided the building blocks needed to pursue the development of a world scale Methanol Floating Production Storage and Off-loading facility (MFPSO) based on stranded natural gas.

    Apart from the significant growth expected from this project, Coogee Chemicals is also pursuing growth prospects in its traditional businesses.

    The company remains committed more than ever before to a culture of safety, quality and continuous improvement and by pursuing this strategy over the past 30 years, we have developed a strong and successful business.

    With continued development of the skills and experience of our workforce and careful selection of Joint Venture partners the company is well placed to take advantage of the opportunities that present themselves.
