Sasol turns focus to oil in Moz after shoring up gas for 400 MW power plant

South African energy and chemicals group Sasol has completed drilling two gas wells in southern Mozambique and has since turned its attention to the development of two commercial oil reservoirs, located in close proximity to its producing gas fields in Temane and Pande. Under the terms of the current phase of a production sharing agreement (PSA) field development plan approved in January, Sasol will develop a total of 13 wells – five gas wells, seven oil wells and a water well. The drilling campaign started in May 2016 and will continue until the first quarter of 2018.
