We have implemented an energy efficiency program to reduce the energy requirements at our refinery by between 10-20% by 2023. Water is essential to our operations and we are committed to the responsible use and conservation of water. 80% of the water needed for our refinery process comes from recycled water from a local treatment plant.

Starts in the distillation towers, where crude oil is separated into various components.
- Will South Africa reopen its oil refinery?
- The commitment to reopen the operation bucks the trend in South Africa where oil and gas majors are opting to close refineries rather than invest in refurbishing and upgrading them, especially in light of incoming clean fuel regulations.
- Where is our refinery located?
- Our refinery is located between residential communities in the Cape Town area, so we take extra care to make sure we take the necessary steps to protect our employees, their families and our neighbouring communities. Petroleum refining is one of the most heavily regulated industries in the world.
- Which process units are used in crude oil refinery?
- A significant portion of the components separated from the crude oil need to be further processed using catalysts to convert low value product to high value product. Some of the process units used at the refinery are: Fluidised Catalytic Cracking Unit (FCC) which cracks the heavy product into LPG, petrol and diesel.
- What happened to Sasol & Total's Natref Refinery?
- Sasol and Total¡¯s Natref refinery is also on the chopping block as the two mull selling or closing the operation. Astron¡¯s refinery ¨C formerly known as Calref and which Glencore acquired with all Chevron¡¯s SA assets in 2019 ¨C has been offline ever since mid-2020 when a deadly fire caused the plant to shut.
