Union protesters have blockaded the front gates of Caltex's Brisbane refinery to rally against job cuts on board the Alexander Spirit fuel tanker ship.

The 36 Australian crew members from the 44,000-tonne tanker were this month let go after the company announced it would be redeployed to the international fuel supply chain.

The tanker was due to travel from Devonport to Singapore on Saturday, however a stand-off on the Tasmanian coast has seen crew refuse to depart.

About two dozen Maritime Union of Australia protesters rallied in solidarity at the Caltex refinery in Lytton on Friday.

The tanker had been chartered by Caltex until 2019, branch secretary Bob Carnegie said.

"They've reneged on the charter and are throwing the whole Aussie crew on the unemployment scrapheap," he told AAP.
