Hundreds of petrol stations across Australia have run out of fuel, prompting the federal government to secure a supply deal with Singapore, a key source of refined petroleum. Energy Minister Chris Bowen has indicated that while there are shortages, the government is not considering fuel rationing at this time. The situation has raised concerns about the availability of fertiliser and other chemicals, adding pressure on the Albanese government's strategy of leveraging overseas coal and gas exports to manage the crisis.
