BP, Shell Suspend South Africa's Largest Oil Refinery

BP PLC and Shell PLC have decided to pause operations at their SAPREF oil refinery, which is the largest in South Africa.

BP, which intends to sell its shareholding in the refinery, said Thursday that the companies are unable to invest in the plant until a decision about its future ownership is made.

The facility accounts for 35% of South Africa's refining capacity and will remain shut for an indefinite period. BP said that a re-start is possible in the future, even in the event of a sale.
