CAPE TOWN (Reuters) - South African energy firm Sasol said on Thursday there was no impact on its oil refinery or coal-to-liquid plant after a union went on strike over wages. "Operations continue as normal and there is no impact on production," spokesman Alex Anderson said. South Africa's largest oil refinery, a joint venture between Shell and BP (SAPREF), stopped operations due to a strike, a union official said.
