New Zealand's days of fuel cover — diesel, petrol, and jet — estimated against the IEA-aligned Minimum Stockholding Obligation. National figures; regional breakdown to come.

Archived data. The live MBIE oil-stocks feed is currently unreachable from this host, so the figures below come from the most recent official snapshot (2024-12-31). They are real MBIE numbers — not fabricated — but not current; every tile is badged ARCHIVE.

No current estimate The latest official fuel-stock figures are ~19 months old. That is too stale to estimate today's cover — the live MBIE feed is unreachable. Below are the last official figures and their date, not current readings.

“Est. today” is an MSO Minimum Stockholding Obligation
The legal minimum days of fuel cover NZ must hold. Falling below it is a supply-security breach.
-equivalent estimate rolled forward from the latest official figure (cache); not a measurement. “Next cargo” lands when the AIS inbound classifier is wired.
