Purpose of the Australian Petroleum
Statistics
To inform evidence based energy policy management and
development, competition and consumer information, national & state
reporting, national statistical accounts, research and international
reporting.
The Australian Petroleum Statistics is collected monthly on a voluntary
basis, published monthly and used as the basis for meeting Australia’s
domestic and international reporting obligations.
The Australian Petroleum Statistics is a unique statistical collection
