Moro is a settlement with an airport in the Southern Highlands of Papua New Guinea, near Lake Kutubu, in the rugged interior of the country. It is best known as a base for the oil and gas industry, as this part of the highlands holds significant petroleum resources, and the airport serves the industry and the surrounding region rather than being a tourist gateway. Nearby, Lake Kutubu is one of Papua New Guinea's most beautiful and important lakes, a serene highland lake set among forested hills, rich in wildlife and endemic fish, and part of an area recognised for its natural and cultural value. The region is home to traditional highland communities. Moro is reached by flights into its airport, serving the oil operations and the region, and by rough highland roads. The climate is cool and wet, typical of the New Guinea highlands, with heavy rainfall.
