The Philippines’ total fuel inventory has increased to 52.02 days, the Department of Energy–Oil Industry Management Bureau (DOE-OIMB) reported.

In a press briefing, Energy Secretary Sharon Garin said the delivery of petroleum products has been "steady," and consumption has seen a "significant drop."

Data presented by the DOE showed that the country’s average daily demand stands at 75,550.57 thousand liters, with total expected available supply now covering just over 52 days.

This marks an improvement from the government’s earlier assurance that fuel supply remained stable at around 50 days of coverage.

As of April 20, 2026, a breakdown of inventory by fuel type revealed varying levels of supply:

• Gasoline: 54.47 days
• Diesel: 50.13 days
• Kerosene: 129.93 days
• Jet fuel: 60.69 days
• Fuel oil: 78.87 days
• Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG): 40.26 days

The DOE presentation also highlighted that kerosene holds the highest number of available days of supply at nearly 130 days, while LPG has the lowest at just over 40 days.

The DOE reports that around 21,000 metric tons are expected to arrive next month.

The update comes as the DOE continues to assure the public that the country’s fuel supply remains stable, even amid global oil price volatility linked to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.

The government is also rolling out targeted fuel subsidy measures to mitigate the impact of fluctuating prices on consumers and key sectors.
