Thread: Energy security, and our National fuel reserve

Bloody hell! Is that all?


Maybe the Govt. can't afford to stock more due to the price structure. Ironic? Sure is.


One assumes the Defence Forces are better off but then D^D won't allow us mere mortals to dip into their stocks?

This is what Ive been rabbiting on about.

Any country north of us wants to bring Australia to its knees just turn off the fuel supply, Anarchy is a given within weeks.

Just the opposite. In a time of National emergency, fuel would be allocated on a priority basis. mere mortals are at the bottom of the pile.

Fixes the fuel reserves issue possibly

I've already posted it in Current Affairs.
Closure of our refineries meant we stored less fuel. There is now a proposal to create a national fuel storage. Sounds very sensible to me.
We also better be nice to the Indonesian refineries.

That is a Eureka moment. All I can say is WOW!, we are sitting on the edge of the future, potentially. Of course, only natural it came from a progressive State, like QLD.
