Only 12 days of diesel stock in Australia? Hmmm. What will that do to prices? The Federal government wants an automobile-dependent Australia but where's their energy-security policy?

Needs an urgent review I reckon,

The AIP also agreed with the 2011 NESA findings about the security of liquid fuels:

AIP concurs with the ‘highly secure’ rating for liquid fuels and the industry expects this performance to continue for the foreseeable future.
There has been no change to the security rating for liquid fuels since the last NESA update in 2008, despite the challenging international market conditions for crude oil and petroleum products and other domestic market developments.
The fuel security and supply reliability provided by the downstream petroleum industry has also been superior to other domestic energy sectors (eg. electricity and gas), reflecting the diversity of alternative liquid fuel supply sources available to Australia in the event of a supply disruption and the efficient integration of Australia into the regional petroleum market and reliable international supply chains.
The more moderate security ratings across all energy sectors for the longer term to 2030, simply reflects the normal market uncertainties and unknowns over such an extended time period and the ongoing competitive pressures on the industry.

AIP also supports the main high level conclusions from the NESA that:
Australia has secure liquid fuels supplies and diverse domestic and international supply sources and this is expected to continue, particularly given the outlook for excess supply capacity in the Asian region.

Watch this space,

http://www.smh.com.au/national/tanke...20-11qrr4.html

Australia now imports 91 per cent of its petrol and diesel – up from 60 per cent in 2000. NSW has no refineries left open and groups like the NRMA have flagged concern that the country has less than 12 days of diesel stock.

[zilo]

Paid 1.29/L for 91 unleaded last night in frankston.

[csv8]

Pathetic isn't it. Shows how they get away with ripping off people.

[Bent8]

Try Canberra, $1.729 for 98 today at BP Fyshwick

Our prices are rediculous, they say because it needs to get trucked in but that is such a cop out.

The prices when i lived in Townsville were always cheaper than Canberra, man it drives me crazy

[chizzy86]

Ridiculous.
Braddon 7/11 ulp 91 149.9 and diesel 150.9

[WHYME]

It's why I like having a Hyundai Getz as my daily, sure laugh at me all you want - but when we're filling up at the servo, I always get the last laugh heheh ...... well mostly.

I commute in from Goulburn and we are around 10c a litre cheaper consistently. Guess where I fill up.

[Bossxr8]

The government doesn't want cheaper petrol, cause that means a drop in GST revenue.

[Tassie f100]

Really with the current barrel price and $A against the $US the price should be about $1 for petrol and about 95c for diesel

[joolz]

Up in Darwin its been no lower than $1.70 for ULP for the past few years. Funny enough after an investigation into the high prices the oil companies blamed on high labour costs. just now the prices have now dropped by around 20 cpl.....

Filled up diesel yesterday in Sydney for 131.9 cpl.

I always seem to be lucky, finding it at the same price as E10 or 1-2 cents more at the most.

[Bill M]

I thought it was because of the relatively low price of the barrel? It has been around the 80-odd dollar mark lately, and even thought the AUS dollar is low, it is higher than the barrel.
