Over the last 64 years we have delivered real value through beneficiation Mozambique gas engine power plant - CTRG 2014 2012 Completion of Sasol Two & Three Synfuels and Chemicals complex in Secunda Sasolburg Gas Engine Power Plant online 2007 First international GTL plant, Oryx, starts productionin Qatar Sasol is formedto commercialisecoal-to-liquids(CTL) technologyin South Africa 1980 1950

  7. Today, our fuels, chemicals and related products benefit millions of people around the world • hot-melt adhesives • laundry detergents • chip coatings • printing inks • household and industrial paints • mobile phone circuit boards • transport fuels
