DESCRIPTION

Sasol is an integrated energy and chemicals company operating through value chains in Southern Africa and internationally. In its core Southern African business, Sasol mines coal from underground collieries and imports natural gas from Mozambique to feed its Secunda and Sasolburg facilities. Using proprietary Fischer-Tropsch technology, Sasol converts these feedstocks into synthetic liquid fuels, such as diesel, gasoline, and jet fuel, as well as chemical products including polymers, solvents, and fertilizers. The company also refines crude oil through an interest in the Natref refinery and supplies piped gas and refined fuels to wholesale, retail, and commercial customers across the region. Internationally, Sasol manufactures and markets commodity and specialty chemicals across facilities in the United States, Europe, and Asia. Sasol's business model relies on the spread between feedstock costs and market prices for refined fuels and chemicals, with profitability driven by global energy prices, production volumes, and foreign exchange rates. Sasol's strategy centers on improving operational reliability at Secunda, restructuring international chemical operations, lowering its cost base, reducing debt, and integrating renewable power.
