  • Will South Durban Basin's oil refinery be converted to a storage facility?
  • Long-suffering South Durban Basin communities have welcomed the decision to convert the oil refinery to a storage facility but activists worry the polluting will continue. Residents of South Durban Basin will breathe a sigh of relief in 2023 when the notorious Engen refinery converts its oil-refining facility into a petroleum storage terminal.
  • Is the Engen refinery causing environmental problems in South Africa?
  • Environmental activists say the Engen refinery is not the only culprit in the area. About 10km south of the Engen facility is the oil refinery plant for Shell and BP South African Petroleum Refineries (SAPREF), supplier of 35% of the country's petrochemical and oil needs. The Mondi and Sappi paper plants also contribute to toxic emissions.
