MRG Supply Solution
Sasol is advancing a Methane Rich Gas (MRG) supply solution to address the anticipated gas supply gap in South Africa as natural gas production from Mozambique declines. The company plans to supply MRG from its Secunda operations to external customers from July 2028 to June 2030.
Regulatory Approval
The implementation of the MRG solution is contingent on regulatory approval from the National Energy Regulator of South Africa (NERSA) for Sasol Gas's Maximum Gas Price (MGP) application. The MGP will reflect the cost of acquiring MRG and will be determined according to NERSA's pricing methodology.
Customer Engagement
Sasol is actively engaging with customers to discuss the proposed MRG solution, assess infrastructure compatibility, and confirm volume requirements. These discussions will inform the final investment decision for necessary modifications to enable MRG supply.
LNG Strategy
In parallel, Sasol continues to develop its Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) strategy, considering multiple terminal options to meet long-term gas demand in both inland and coastal regions.
