South Africa’s industrial gas users are planning to form a company that will ensure supply after the sole provider of the fuel said it will halt the flow in 2026.
Sasol Ltd., which has provided gas to customers through the 865-kilometer (537 mile) Rompco pipeline from its fields in Mozambique, has said it will stop the supply in two years. The Industrial Gas Users Association of Southern Africa, a lobby group with members including Arcelor Mittal SA and Coca-Cola Co., has warned that without fuel supply companies will have to fire workers and shut businesses.
