Sasol is pleased to announce the appointment of Ovidio Jose Sarmento 
Rodolfo as Country Director for Mozambique.

    Ovidio comes to Sasol with solid experience in the oil and gas industry in 
various engineering, managerial, commercial and leadership roles. Ovidio holds 
a degree in Mechanical Engineering and a Master's degree in Business 
Administration. He has occupied various senior management roles in both 
international and state owned companies.

    He started his career with BP in Mozambique where he proposed a strategy 
that initiated the turnaround of the lubricants business in terms of 
profitability, while at IPG he led and coordinated the design phase of three 
oil terminal projects in Maputo, Beira and Moatize.  At Inpetro Energy, he 
managed all operations covering the reception, storage and dispatch of fuels.

    Gilbert Y Yevi, Senior Vice President for Sasol Exploration and Production 
International commented, "We are delighted to welcome Ovidio on board and 
confident that his appointment will benefit not only Sasol, but all our 
stakeholders in Mozambique, given his extensive knowledge of the industry and 
the operating landscape."

    "Over the past decade, the availability of gas from the Pande and Temane 
gas fields has helped to grow the domestic gas market in Mozambique, enabling 
the wholesale and retail supply of gas. In addition, the development of gas 
infrastructure stimulated by Sasol and its partners has helped to drive 
socio-economic development and economic diversification.  Today, about a third 
of Mozambique's electricity is generated from Pande and Temane gas. We believe 
that Ovidio will be a great asset to our company in bringing new thinking and 
perspectives in continuing our strong partnership with Mozambique and its 
people."

    He concluded by saying that Ovidio's appointment is yet another testament 
of our commitment to the development of Mozambique in partnership with and 
through Mozambicans by building on our foundation of win-win in-country 
partnerships.
