The Oceania National Olympic Committees (ONOC) is an international
organisation that includes the 17 National Olympic Committees (NOCs) of Oceania.
Its flag is white with its logo, consisting of a blue stilized canoe,
abbreviation and name of organization and Olympic rings. ONOC new logo was
selected after a regional competition held in 2008. The logo symbolizes the sail
of an ocean-going canoe, a symbol common to all Pacific Island communities.

Strange: The Olympic Charter, I believe, calls them "emblems", so I would
have expected all Olympic organisations to call them so.
Does that mean there was a flag with an older emblem as well?
I couldn't find anything about the flag. You wouldn't have proof that such an
ONOC flag exists as well, would you? I don't find it particularly difficult to
find emblems, but it's apparently a bit tricky to confirm flags they may be on.
Now, if there was a parade of committees every once in a while.

Source refers to the symbolism of the logo. Please see page 7, Logo section.
This document definitely call it logo, but not emblem.
