About Ampol

Powering better journeys, today and tomorrow.

Our company has always been about more than fuel. Fuel may be the foundation of our business, but our motivation and purpose comes from the people, businesses, industries and communities we engage with.

From our origins until today, we've always been inspired by the role we can play in people's lives – to keep them moving, to make journeys happen.

In May 2021, Ampol released its future energy and decarbonisation strategies, which sets out our plans to transition our business to future fuels and energy solutions, in line with customer demand and technology availability, and our ambition to achieve net zero emissions across our operations

We've been powering journeys for over 100 years and we'll be here powering journeys for 100 more.
