Sasol Ltd. (SOL.JO) said Monday that it brought a second production unit online at its Lake Charles chemicals operation in Louisiana.

The South Africa-based petrochemical and energy company said an ethylene-oxide facility achieved beneficial operation on Friday, becoming the second of its seven planned units to come online.

The company said it continues to take actions to mitigate the hit from Lake Charles's revised capital costs on the business. Last month, Sasol raised the cost estimate for the project.
