Puma Energy completes Mackay Fuel Terminal

31 Dec rss print

As part of Puma Energy's commitment to bring more competition to the Australian fuel market, we opened our first newly-constructed fuel terminal in Mackay, Queensland in 2014.

The fuel terminal in Mackay has improved Australia's import and fuel storage capabilities and has helped us to ensure our customers in regional Queensland have all of their fuel supply needs met.

Boasting six storage tanks with 56 megalitres of storage capacity and joined to the Port by a dedicated overground pipeline of 1.6 kilometres, the Mackay fuel terminal ensures supply security and provides much-needed competition to central and north Queensland.
