Drove past 10 servos in my 8km trip to home from work. Springvale to mt Waverley VIC

It's terrible. My Wife is a Ambulance Paramedic & even they are finding it hard to get Diesel for the Ambulances.

Shell refinery was out of action (unplanned), it's been running again since Saturday, supplies are building.

Should be plenty available for the weekend

If we run out of diesel the country will come to a standstill as trucking will cease....and they won't let that happen (unless we are being invaded and the military need all we have got)....just a glitch hopefully....but it is a reminder of how fragile things can be when we loose basic supplies of fuel....

The diesel shortage is affecting the whole of Victoria. I think it was the storm that affected the refinery, which is the only one in the whole state. It is back up and running again but because they are so far behind it will take a while to catch up. They are expecting it won't be back to normal until after Christmas.
Cheers, Josh

We have been delivering diesel . I done two loads last night to the rail but the servos it's just got to do with allocation now .
Sunday night load to bendigo had diesel on and they had been out for two days . I can't even get some of the 46000ltrs loaded .

Lot of places out in the northern suburbs. I managed to fill the Xtrail Saturday.
There are a few things that have all gone wrong to cause this. Issues at Geelong refinery and off shore rig storm damage.

I just filled up at BP Oakleigh, near Warrigal / princess Highway intersection at a dear price of 1.599 per litre.

$1.60 a litre? So they're screwing us a bit more than usual.......
Shouldn't we get a discount for the inconvenience
Haheahehahe........... Yeah right

Every time I go out its a different servo that has diesel.
It won't last long at each site.
One consistency, shells I see are out!
Others are getting usual deliverys.
