    The country used to have eight oil refineries but that number has dwindled to just two — the Viva Energy facitlity in Geelong, Victoria, and the Ampol Lytton refinery in Brisbane, Queensland — as domestic oil resources are largely exhausted.

    At present, Australia imports roughly 90 per cent of its oil which it generally takes as refined product from South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia and Taiwan.
