Australian Petroleum Statistics
This monthly publication collects national and state statistical information on sales of petroleum products, exports and imports of petroleum products and crude oil, production of crude oil and condensate, refinery input and output, and stocks of petroleum products.
The Australian Petroleum Statistics is now available in a new format to make it easier to access and use official statistics on Australia’s petroleum supply and use. We will continue to enhance the publication in the coming months and welcome feedback to petroleum.statistics@industry.gov.au.

Data providers
In January 2018 the Petroleum and Other Fuels Reporting Act 2017 came into effect and made the reporting of fuel data mandatory for Australian businesses meeting the reporting criteria.
From October 2022, reporting is required to be done through the new Liquid Fuels Gateway (LFG). Information on how to use the gateway is provided within the user guides and training videos:
LFG User Guide – Module 1 (LFG Overview) (DOCX 3.66 MB)
LFG User Guide – Module 2 (LFG Administration) (DOCX 2.74 MB)
LFG User Guide – Module 3 (LFG Managing reporting) (DOCX 13.19 MB)
Training Video – Module 1 – Logging in
Training Video – Module 1 – Maintaining your profile
Training Video – Module 1 – Navigating the LFG
New reporting templates are available below that will enable users to upload the data directly into the gateway. While the information in the guidance material remains the same, the reporting templates have been updated therefore both documents for each type of reporting should be interpreted together.
