His drive, innovative streak and perseverance have seen him take proactive steps to ensure readiness for proactively bringing LNG into South Africa to meet the need for energy security rather than wait for a call by government.

The company specialises in the development of liquefied natural gas (LNG) infrastructure and will be bringing LNG to South Africa in 2021, making a cleaner, affordable fuel alternative available to the market.
