A group of Extinction Rebellion protesters have gathered outside an oil plant in Auckland. 

The climate activist group can be seen blocking the entrance and exit to the Wiri Oil Services plant in south Auckland, stopping petrol trucks from going in and out.

Around 15 protesters have gathered at the oil plant with some sitting on the road and others standing holding signs.

One of the signs blocking the exit says: "Just stop oil" while a larger sign obstructing the entrance says "stop greenwashing".

The protest comes as the Government releases its Emissions Reduction Plan.
