摘要

Doha—South Africa’s Sasol remains optimistic over the potential of future shale gas development in the country despite a decision not to pursue exploration for shale gas in South Africa’s Karoo region, Sasol CEO David Constable said December 8. “We decided not to take an option on those blocks, the quality of the shale rock was not appropriate for extraction,” Constable told the World Petroleum Congress in Doha.
