Shane Jones: Associate Energy Minister on the increased diesel storage at Marsden Point

The Associate Energy Minister says increased diesel storage at Marsden Point will be a great help to our fuel security. 

Channel Infrastructure will re-purpose old storage tanks and increase storage by 90 million litres. 

The Government's set aside $21.6 million dollars for the project, but Shane Jones says it might not all be spent. 

Jones says it's good to have that stock on land. 

"Then, there's somewhere to store it, as opposed to having a floating terminal, like a ship, bobbing around on the tide."
