Drive along any outback road and you’re bound to see one thing: IOR.
Whether that’s a road train on its way to deliver fuel, or an unmanned tank keeping hard working drivers on the road, IOR has been standing side by side with big rigs on big roads for over 40 years.
Born in the tiny town of Eromanga, IOR was built by people who understand what it takes to live and work in the bush. The long hours, the red dust, and the satisfaction of getting the job done.
What began as a small refinery serving locals in outback Queensland has grown into one of Australia’s leading independent fuel suppliers operating across the entire fuel supply chain. Still proudly Australian-operated and still backing the people who keep Australia moving.
For IOR, it’s always been about people.
Across terminals, depots, and diesel stops, the team takes pride in knowing their work keeps planes in the air, producers in the field, and trucks on the road. From the driver delivering diesel to a remote cattle station to the terminal operator loading tankers before dawn, everyone at IOR plays a part in powering regional Australia.
Drivers who work for IOR will tell you it’s not just a job. It’s a lifestyle. With sites stretching from the Surat Basin to Perth and up into the Gulf, no two days are the same. You might be fuelling a drill rig on a gas project one morning and topping up tanks on the Warrego next. It’s demanding, rewarding work, backed by a company that values innovation, our communities, and reliability above all else.
And for the drivers who fuel up with IOR, that same commitment shines through.
IOR’s unmanned network means you can fuel up 24/7 at sites designed for trucks, not cars. You’ll find high-flow diesel, AdBlue, wide access lanes, clean toilets and showers, and friendly faces in towns that know your name. Service built for drivers, by the people who get what life on the road is really like.
Innovation runs deep at IOR too. The company’s fuel management system lets operators track every litre of fuel they dispense into the tank, helping fleets manage costs and compliance with ease. It’s part of IOR’s drive to do things better and support the industries responsible for the food on our plate, the presents under the Christmas tree, and the roof over our heads.
No matter whether you’re behind the wheel of a Kenworth or a Hino, IOR is the kind of company that’s worth being part of. A team that looks out for one another, invests locally, and keeps Australia’s essential industries moving.
Next time you see the IOR logo on the highway, give a wave. Behind it are everyday Australians doing extraordinary work, fuelling the journey, and proud to be part of yours.
