Mozambique: Sasol and ENH sign MoU to assess Inhassoro-Beira LNG terminal feasibility

Sasol Limited and the National Hydrocarbon Company (ENH) on Wedneday signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to assess the feasibility of an Inhassoro-Beira liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal.

The ceremony took place on the sidelines of the Africa Gas & LNG Summit 2026, being held at the Joaquim Chissano International Conference Centre, in the presence of Maria Benvinda Levi, Prime Minister of Mozambique.

Sasol and ENH have built a solid partnership over more than two decades, dating back to the signing of the Petroleum Production Agreement (PPA) and the Production Sharing Agreement (PSA) in 2000.

Gas production under the PPA began in 2004, followed by the start of production under the PSA in 2025, demonstrating the strength and continuity of cooperation between the two entities.

Building on this solid foundation, and drawing on their joint experience and Sasol’s technical expertise, the two parties are now exploring new opportunities to support the development of LNG infrastructure, with the potential to further strengthen Mozambique’s position as a regional energy hub and create lasting economic value for the country and the region.

During a visit to the Africa Gas & LNG Summit exhibition, the Prime Minister learned about Sasol’s operations through a virtual reality (VR) experience.

“We follow your work and reiterate the importance of brands that make an impact, such as yours. Keep up this work,” she said.

Sasol remains committed to sustainable industrialisation and regional energy security.
