Viva Energy : Strong local connections in Viva Energy deal to supply V/Line

Viva Energy announced today that it has signed a fuel-supply agreement with V/Line, Victoria's regional passenger train and coach service operator.

V/Line is one of Australia's fastest growing rail networks, facilitating more than 21 million passenger trips in 2023 on its train and coach services, with five commuter lines and eight long-distance routes across Victoria.
This agreement will see Viva Energy supply V/Line with Shell Diesel Extra, our leading premium diesel product.

A key part of the agreement was V/Line's desire to maximise regional production and delivery. Viva Energy is delivering fuel either manufactured by, or imported through, its Geelong Refinery, supporting local content, regional jobs and communities.

Viva Energy will be providing fuel into key locations including Southern Cross, Geelong, Footscray, Wyndham Vale, Waurn Ponds, Ballarat, Bendigo and Shepparton as well as small-drop deliveries into key regional stations, including Traralgon.
The V/Line agreement adds another important partner to Viva Energy's growing and diverse commercial portfolio.

Viva Energy CEO Scott Wyatt said he is delighted that Viva Energy is now a supply partner for V/Line.

"V/Line provides an essential service and Viva Energy is thrilled to contribute to keeping regional Victorians on the move," Scott said. "As a frequent train traveller myself, I regularly rely on the V/Line service to commute to our refinery in Geelong and appreciate its importance. It is gratifying to know that Viva Energy is now playing a vital role in supporting V/Line to connect regional Victorians."
