Sasol remains committed to protecting critical ecosystems, livelihoods and the sustainable utilisation of Mozambique’s oil & gas reserves in a manner which benefits local communities and all our stakeholders. . 

Our approach to assessing the potential of shallow water Blocks 16/19 has always, and will continue to, follow this critical ethos.  

Sasol has acknowledged and are respectful of the significant amount of interest from the public as well as the communities that could be affected by any potential exploration project during the recent stakeholder engagement process. 

All the comments received will be incorporated into the Environmental Pre-feasibility and Scoping Report (EPDA) report which will then be used to define the terms of reference to the next phase of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) process. 

As a responsible corporate citizen in Mozambique, Sasol will ensure that concerns and comments from diverse stakeholders are critically evaluated, considered, as well as provide updates on any progress and way forward regarding the project.
