A decline in production from Sasol’s Mozambique gas fields can be supplemented by the LNG from Matola that would be converted back to gas and fed into the main line through a connecting pipe by 2026. Sasol already transports gas to South Africa from Mozambique on the 865-kilometer Rompco pipeline. “It’s a no-regret move because you know that will deplete and then when you don’t need the gas, you don’t develop more gas,” Grobler said.

That type of infrastructure will mean that the company will be ‘tied to that for 30 or 40 years because that’s the nature of the investment’, Grobler said in an interview at Sasol’s headquarters in Johannesburg. “Gas in the long term is also a fossil fuel and we said we want to get to net zero.”
