Barnwell Industries Inc
Company Overview
History and Background

Top Products and Market Share
Key Offerings
- Land Sales: Sales of land parcels in Hawaii, providing revenue based on market value and development potential. Competitors in Hawaii include Alexander & Baldwin (ALEX) and Kamehameha Schools (private).
- Oil and Gas Production: Production and sale of crude oil and natural gas in Alberta, Canada. Revenue depends on commodity prices and production volumes. Competitors include Canadian Natural Resources Limited (CNQ) and Suncor Energy (SU).
Market Dynamics
Industry Overview
The land market in Hawaii is driven by tourism, limited land availability, and high demand. The oil and gas industry is subject to commodity price volatility and regulatory changes.
Positioning
Barnwell is a smaller player in both the Hawaiian land market and the Canadian oil and gas sector. Its competitive advantage lies in its established land holdings in Hawaii and its specific oil and gas assets in Canada.
Total Addressable Market (TAM)
TAM for Hawaiian land is estimated in the billions, influenced by tourism and residential demand. Oil and gas TAM globally is in the trillions, with Barnwell holding a very small fraction.
