OBJECTIVE
Mining & Oil and Gas Event Management Roma QLD | Wild Desert Case Study
Wild Desert engaged our team to design and deliver a large-scale oil and gas launch event to mark two major milestones:
- The launch of Australia’s first hybrid workover rig
- Celebrating 20 years in the oil and gas field services industry
The event required a dual-purpose format:
- A community engagement event for local schools, residents, council and media
- An invite-only corporate evening event for staff, stakeholders and clients
Delivered in Roma, Queensland, a key regional hub for the mining and oil & gas industry, the event required strong expertise in regional event management, logistics and stakeholder coordination.
WHAT WE DELIVERED
With just 4 weeks’ lead time, we delivered a seamless, two-part resource sector event designed to engage both the local community and industry stakeholders.

- Guided tours of the hybrid workover rig and equipment
