The Fuels segment comprises the sales and marketing of liquid fuels produced in South Africa. Sasol supplies approximately 40% of South
Africa's domestic fuel need through retail and wholesale channels. Liquid fuels are blended from fuel components produced by the Secunda
Operations, crude oil refined at Natref, as well as some products purchased from other refiners. Liquid fuel products are sold under both
short- and long-term agreements for both retail sales and commercial sales, including sales to other oil companies.
Liquid fuel prices are mainly driven by the Basic Fuel Price (BFP). Sales through wholesale is at BFP plus costs such as transportation and
storage. For commercial sales and sales to other oil companies, the prices are fixed and determinable according to the specific contract, with
periodic price adjustments.
Turnover is recognised as follows:
Control passes to the customer:
On-delivery
At the point in time when the fuel is delivered onto the rail tank car, road tank truck or into the
pipeline.
Free Carrier
At the point in time when the goods are unloaded to the port of shipment; Sasol is not responsible
for the freight and insurance.
Carriage Paid To
Products: At the point in time when the product is delivered to a specified location or main carrier.
Freight: Over the period of transporting the goods to the customer’s nominated place – where the
seller is responsible for freight costs, which are included in the contract.
The Fuels business also develops, implements and manages the group’s international business ventures based on Sasol’s proprietary
gas-to-liquids (GTL) technology. Sasol holds 49% in ORYX GTL in Qatar.
Chemicals Business
Chemical products are grouped into Advanced Materials, Base Chemicals, Essential Care Chemicals and Performance Solutions.
The Chemicals Businesses sell the majority of their products under contracts at prices determinable from such agreements. Turnover
is recognised in accordance with the related contract terms, at the point at which control transfers to the customer and prices are
determinable and collectability is probable.
