  • Which is the largest refinery in South Africa?
  • Sapref is the largest refinery in southern Africa, based in Durban. (Photo: LinkdIn / Sapref) The closures of South Africa¡¯s small, old and inefficient refineries are economically painful in the short term. But they also offer the prospect of better outcomes if government acts sensibly.
  • How many barrels a day does Durban refinery produce?
  • It produced 120,000 barrels per day and while operational, was the second largest crude oil refinery in Durban, supplying about 17% of the nation's fuel. The refinery is located in the centre of a residential area.
  • Where is the SAPREF oil refinery located?
  • The Sapref crude oil refinery, located in Durban, South Africa, and owned by Shell and BP PLC Petroleum, accounted for a total refining capacity of around 170,000 barrels per day as of January 2017. The Enref refinery is also located in Durban, and had a capacity of approximately 135,000 barrels per day in the same year.
  • What is the capacity of Durban II refinery?
  • The capacity of the refinery is expected to remain the same as 180mbd by 2030. The Durban II refinery witnessed three incidents during the period 2015-2020. SAPREF is an oil refining company that refines and produces various petroleum products.
  • Which Durban refineries have made good on their threats?
  • In the latest round, the two Durban refineries made good on their threats. Engen (Petronas) in 2020, following an explosion and fire, and Sapref (Shell and BP) after its temporary closure during the insurrection in July 2021. Natref appears to be playing a waiting game on the government¡¯s latest deadline, which has been shifted from 2023 to 2027.
  • Is Natref a surviving oil refinery in South Africa?
  • Natref is the last surviving oil refinery in South Africa. Three others were closed in the past two years. These refinery closures and the possible permanent closure of the Natref refinery are shots fired in the long running contestation between the oil refiners and the government, which has been trying to introduce cleaner fuels specifications.
