  • How does the crude oil reach the Cape Town refinery?

  • Will Glencore reopen its Cape Town oil refinery?
  • Global commodities trader Glencore will restart its Cape Town oil refinery in the fourth quarter this year, more than two years after a deadly explosion shuttered the plant, Chief Executive Gary Nagle said during an earnings call on Thursday. The 100 000 bl/d refinery is run by Astron Energy, which is majority owned by Switzerland-based Glencore.
  • Why is South Africa reopening its oil refinery?
  • A shortage of oil refineries across sub-Saharan Africa coupled with soaring crude prices because of the war in Ukraine has left countries dangerously short of fuel supplies, disrupting airlines and causing queues at filling stations. The refinery restart will provide some relief to South Africa, which is a net fuel importer.
  • Which Sasol refineries are still operational in South Africa?
  • Out of South Africa 's six refineries, only Sasol's Natref crude oil refinery and its Secunda coal -to-liquids plant are currently operational. A Sasol spokesperson said the Natref is ramping back up this week after declaring force majeure on crude oil supplies last month.
  • Will Astron energy reopen Milnerton refinery?
  • Astron Energy's Milnerton refinery in Cape Town. Glencore expects to reopen the shuttered Cape Town oil refinery this year. Upon reopening, the operation will be able to produce additional products and will have an improved cost base. The commitment comes as Sapref becomes the latest refinery in SA to halt operations.
  • Where is the Astron Energy Refinery located?
  • The Astron Energy Refinery is located between residential communities in the Cape Town area. We take extra care to protect our employees, their families, and our neighboring communities.
