Our difference in action
Our earlier collaboration between Sasol and Topsoe showcases some of our market-leading technologies that are re-shaping industries.
Here’s a look at some of our earlier ground-breaking, world-scale projects:
ORYX GTL (Qatar):
32,400 barrels per day Gas-to-Liquids facility
A strong 49% Joint Venture with Qatar Energy
Leverages Sasol’s game-changing Low Temperature FT™ and Topsoe’s class-leading SynCOR™ technologies and catalysts
Successfully started up in 2006
Current production rates exceed design capacity
Escravos GTL (Nigeria)
33,200 barrels per day Gas-to-Liquids facility located in Nigeria
JV between Sasol and Chevron Nigeria Limited a Nigerian National Petroleum Company
Sasol’s Low Temperature FT and Topsoe’s SynCOR™ technology/catalyst deployed
Successfully started up in 2014
Sasol’s Sasolburg FT Wax Expansion (South Africa)
Wax expansion brownfields project in Sasolburg to increase hardwax capacity
Two new Sasol’s Low Temperature FT slurry phase reactors of 2,500 barrels per day added in two phases, replacing 5 fixed bed reactor
Topsoe’s SynCOR™ technology/catalyst deployed
Fully operational – full design capacity was achieved in 2017
Uzbekistan GTL (Uzbekistan):
38,000 barrels per day Gas-to-Liquids facility
Powered by Topsoe’s revolutionary SynCOR™ technology
Enhanced with Sasol’s cutting-edge Low Temperature FT™ technology
These projects are testament to the successful collaboration of Sasol and Topsoe deploying first-of-its kind technologies. This legacy paves the way for our new JV to develop world-scale projects to produce sustainable aviation fuel.
