After the Iran war revealed Australia's dependence on imported fuel, the Australian federal and state governments will cooperate with the industrial company Perdaman Group to study the feasibility of building a new refinery to rebuild local refining capacity. Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanis announced on Tuesday that the government will allocate 4 million Australian dollars to study plans for the construction and operation of a new refinery by Perdaman Group in Karratha, Western Australia. If finally implemented, it will be the first refining project to be put into operation in Australia since 1965.
