🧠 AI Risk Assessment

Normal
Moderate
Elevated

Moderate Risk

→ Stable

NZ fuel supply risk is moderate as diesel and jet fuel stay only just above their minimum buffers, while a busy run of incoming shipments should help keep conditions broadly steady.

New Zealand's fuel supply still looks manageable, but diesel and jet fuel are only 0.9 days above their minimum required in-country buffers. Petrol is in a much stronger position after a sharp lift in the latest stock update, and the recent three-point stock trend is broadly steady overall rather than clearly worsening. Several international shipments are visible over the next week, which should help support supply, but the official stock snapshot is 175 hours old and the 14-day fuel-by-fuel incoming picture is still incomplete.
