The State Government continues to work closely with the Australian Government and industry to support a coordinated national approach to fuel security and distribution impacted by the conflict in the Middle East.

While global factors may influence fuel markets, measures are in place to help manage impacts in Western Australia.  

To help maintain reliable access to fuel across the State, the Fuel Security State Controller, supported by a State Management Team, is working with industry to manage supply and distribution issues.  

The WA Government has used emergency powers under Section 43 of the Fuel, Energy and Power Resources Act to order the fuel industry to share information on their supply chains, effective from 2 April 2026.
