ICIS: South Africa Gauges Appetite for Bundled, Unbundled LNG

South Africa’s Department of Energy (DOE) is understood to have received interest in the development an LNG import project through its current gas-to-power procurement programme ahead of the launch of an expected Request for Proposals (RfP) in the second half of this year.
