Strengthening Our Downstream Footprint in South Africa

Drakensberg Energy is pleased to confirm that we have secured dedicated inland storage capacity for Ultra Low Sulphur Diesel (ULSD) in South Africa.

This development enhances our ability to:

• Maintain consistent product availability
• Support wholesale and industrial clients with structured supply
• Improve logistical flexibility across key inland corridors
• Execute prompt and forward transactions with greater efficiency

Access to reliable storage infrastructure is a critical component of responsible petroleum trading. It enables disciplined inventory management, stronger counterparty alignment, and improved responsiveness to market movements.

As an independent trading house operating across Africa, the UAE and broader international markets, we continue to focus on building tangible infrastructure-backed capability — not just paper barrels.

We look forward to expanding our supply relationships and supporting downstream partners with structured, dependable ULSD flows.
