French oil major TotalEnergies SE plans to expand fuel trade with South Africa after a wave of refinery shutdowns sent imports soaring.

Africa’s most industrialized nation has long relied on fuel from abroad, but demand has grown in recent years as a string of refineries suspended output. Total is well-placed to boost its presence in the country, where it has storage depots and plans a tie-up with local firm Zambo Energy to supply products.
