Geelong refinery fire cuts petrol production

Published 5 days, 21 hours ago
Description
A major fire at Geelong's oil refinery has reduced petrol production by 40 per cent, though diesel and aviation fuel remain at 80 per cent capacity. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has ruled out fuel rationing and assured the public that any shortfalls will be covered by imports, with Viva Energy committing not to pass costs on to consumers. The incident has renewed concerns about Australia's reliance on fuel imports amid existing global supply pressures.
