My understanding is that insulin's role is to help to turn blood glucose into triglycerides for fat storage (lipogenesis).
With fats, they pretty much are triglycerides when in the blood anyway, so don't need insulin to turn them into anything for fat storage.
Has Barry missed something or have I?
Note that just as eating fat does not raise blood glucose, it doesn't raise insulin levels either. This is an important point as insulin is the hormone ultimately responsible for body fat storage. And as fats do not elicit an insulin response, they cannot stored as body fat. Those who tell you that eating fat makes you fat, just don't understand how the body works.
