PROJECT ANNOUNCEMENT

Domestic Oil Refining Project Announced for Gladstone, Queensland

Resilient Energy Australia has announced the development of a large-scale domestic oil refining project in Gladstone, Queensland, designed to strengthen Australia’s fuel security and reduce reliance on imported refined products.

The project has secured strategic land from the State Government and is progressing through advanced feasibility, permitting and stakeholder engagement phases.

Australia’s Fuel Supply Is Increasingly Exposed

Australia relies heavily on imported refined fuels supported by long and complex global supply chains.

As a geographically remote market, Australia is particularly vulnerable to disruption during geopolitical or economic instability.

Fuel supply is critical to mining, agriculture and freight.

A System Built for Efficiency & Resilience

Domestic refining capacity has declined significantly in recent years.

Imports now dominate Australia’s fuel supply system, reducing control during disruption scenarios.

A Domestic Refining Capability

Resilient Energy Australia is developing a large-scale refinery in Gladstone, Queensland designed to:

  • Restore domestic refining capability
  • Secure supply of critical fuels, particularly diesel
  • Reduce reliance on overseas supply chains
  • Support Australia’s key industries
