Another load of petroleum was delivered to the Port of Tauranga this morning, as New Zealand's fuel crisis continues.
The import vessel Stena Paris arrived in port at 9am.
Refining New Zealand spokesman Andrew McNaught said the vessel was expected to discharge regular petrol and diesel in Tauranga.
"It will then travel to Lyttelton, arriving on Sunday, to deliver additional regular petrol, jet and diesel. It will then travel to Bluff discharging regular petrol and diesel," he said.
He was confident there would be no widespread petrol or diesel shortage in Auckland as it was being trucked in from other parts of the country, including Tauranga.
