Fuels Industry UK

Fuels Industry UK is a trade body that represents the interests of its constituent member oil companies in the downstream oil and gas industry in the United Kingdom. From 1979 to 2023 it was known as the UK Petroleum Industry Association. UKPIA was dissolved and reconstituted as Fuels Industry UK in August 2023, to better reflect the development of biofuels.
