• Total national fuel stocks remain stable since the last update and stocks continue to be sufficient across petrol, diesel and jet fuel.
• Overall, New Zealand has 59.7 days of petrol, 49.1 days of diesel and 50.7 days of jet fuel available. This is as of 11.59pm 8 April.
• This fuel is either in New Zealand, within our Exclusive Economic Zone (New Zealand waters) – which includes ships with fuel unloading, ships at berth yet to unload, and ships moving between ports – or on water outside the EEZ up to 3 weeks away.
• There is currently no indication of fuel supply disruption, and fuel continues to flow normally into New Zealand.

As at 11:59pm on Wednesday 8 April, fuel companies confirmed the current fuel stock level (as days’ cover) as:

*Totals may not sum due to rounding.

Fuel stocks naturally rise and fall each week as fuel is used and new shipments arrive. Current fuel levels are broadly in line with normal levels before recent global disruptions, and fuel supply remains normal.

Fuel companies continue to report regularly to officials, and there are currently no concerns about future fuel shipments.

MBIE receives fuel stock and shipment data from fuel importers twice a week. This information is published on the MBIE website on Monday and Wednesday afternoons and shows fuel supply at a specific point in time.
