Depleting gas reserves threaten future gas security

Future security of supply is of major concern to pipeline operator Republic of Mozambique Pipeline Investments Company’s (Rompco’s) as gas supply from the Pande and Temane gasfields, operated by energy company Sasol in Mozambique, is expected to decline from 2026. The Pande and Temane gasfields have an anticipated 25-year lifespan. Production began in 2004, making Pande the first gas production field in Mozambique, followed by Temane in 2009.
