Fiji Energy Security Indicator Profile 2009 Energy consumption in Fiji like the rest of PICTs is heavily dependent on petroleum fuels, which roughly account for over 91% of the country’s consumption. Liquid petroleum fuel is currently supplied to Fiji by three multinational petroleum companies (Pacific Energy, Mobil and Total), which ship fuel in medium range tankers mainly from Singapore and South Korea. In 2009, around 259 million litres of diesel, 58 million litres of petrol, 191 million litres of kerosene and 16 kilo tonnes of LPG were imported into the country. LPG is mainly imported from Australia by Fiji Gas and Blue Gas. Fuel import for 2009 stood in the vicinity of USD 345 million dollars with the current GDP of USD 2.48 billion dollars. Fiji also re-exports fuels to a number of small PICs such as Tuvalu and Tonga. The transport sector (land, maritime and air) is perceived as the major sector that consumes fuel imported to Fiji accounting for some 70% of the fuel consumed. Other petroleum fuel products such as heavy fuel oil are also imported to Fiji. Please click on the country name below to download the profile.
