  • What is the Natref Refinery at Sasolburg?
  • The Natref refinery at Sasolburg was commissioned in 1971 and has been at the cutting edge of refining technology since its inception. Situated inland, the refinery's market for heavy fuel oil was quite limited. As a result, it was designed to get the most out of crude oil and equipped with state-of-the-art technology.
  • 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.
  • Where is the Natref Refinery?
  • Commissioned in 1971, the Natref refinery at Sasolburg has been at the cutting edge of refining technology since its inception. Situated inland, near the industrial heartland OF South Africa, Natref (National Petroleum Refiners of South Africa) was no ordinary refinery.
  • When did the SAPREF refinery open?
  • The Sapref refinery was commissioned (began operating) in 1964 in the port city of Durban. It contributed 35% of South Africa’s refinery capacity and refined 180,000 barrels of imported crude oil per day. It was South Africa’s biggest refinery, until it was temporarily closed in 2022 after floods damaged the plant. It never reopened.
