Viva's Scott Wyatt on a fire and a fuel crisis
Description
A fire at one of Australia’s last two refineries would be a big story at any time. In the middle of a fuel shock, it becomes something else.
Viva Energy is at the centre of a very difficult moment for Australia’s fuel system. As the Geelong refinery deals with the fallout from last week’s fire, and conflict affecting the Strait of Hormuz continues to drive prices higher, Alan Kohler asks what it means for a country that now has very little refining capacity left.
It’s a conversation about supply, security, refining capacity, and how Australia ended up so exposed when global energy markets go wrong.
Viva Energy CEO Scott Wyatt joins Alan Kohler to unpack it all on That's Business with Alan Kohler.
