easier to buy fuel at well 33 - Kunawarratji

Kate is normally the lass who organises the fuel for the Well 23 dump. We arrived at the Capricorn Roadhouse in July last year to find our two drums present but others not so fortunate. 4 drums delivered the previous Friday had been stolen in a quick snatch-grab. Thankfully ours and one other drum remained. We were very fortunate as we were running on vapour by this time after two weeks in the wilds (we would have got to Cotton Creek though).

Be warned, quality control is not the best either. The first thing out of my drum was 2 litres of water and crap. Thank god I had a "Mr Funnel" with me. I would recommend that anyone filling with drums in the outback carry something similar.

Our 2012 experiences are covered here;

Hi Leanne

In view of the risks, Kunawarritji is not all that expensive. Yes, it was the highest price we have paid for fuel, but as part of the overall cost of a trip, it was not a huge slice of expenditure.

We, 2 cars, shared a drum from Well 23 and had no problems, cost us $3.00 per litre for a 200L drum ( $600.00 ) as opposed to the $3.40 p/l and an abrupt Graham and his joyful wife, I have stated before that the locals get the fuel cheaper than us travellers.

I would have no problems in getting fuel again from Well 23.
