Crude Oil Import Volumes More Than Double

Crude oil import volumes more than doubled in the December 2020 quarter, bouncing back from recent lows, Stats NZ said today.

“This is the largest quarterly percentage increase in crude oil import volumes since the series began in September 1982,” business prices delivery manager Bryan Downes said.
