RefineryRussian FederationCO₂ reported

Novatek Ust Luga Refinery is a refinery in Russian Federation with a reported capacity of 120,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by Volga Group . By capacity it ranks #27 of 38 oil refineries tracked in Russian Federation. It emits about 718,742 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 167,539 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 29% below the median refinery.

في السياق: كيف يتم مقارنة هذا المنشأة

عند 120,000 BBL per day، يكون Novatek Ust Luga Refinery أقل من متوسط refinery في Russian Federation (150,000 BBL per day). CO₂ لكل وحدة سعة هو تقريباً 22% أقل من متوسط refinery. القطاع الفرعي: oil-and-gas-refining. كـ refinery، يتطلب حرارة عملية مكثفة (عادة 200–600°C) لعملياته الصناعية الأساسية — حرارة يجب توفيرها بواسطة الغلايات أو الأفران أو الاحتراق المباشر، والخسائر من خلال الحاويات والأنابيب غير المعزولة تمثل وقود مهدر. يمكن للعزل المعياري القابل للإزالة أن يقلل هذه الخسائر بمقدار 80-96٪، وتبريد الأسطح إلى ≤45°C، مع فترة استرجاع غالباً أقل من سنتين. تقوم المصافي بتسخين وتجزئة وتحويل النفط الخام كيميائياً إلى الوقود والمواد الخام البتروكيميائية من خلال التقطير والتكسير اللذين يتطلبان طاقة كثيفة — متطلبة بشكل استثنائي لتوليد البخار وتعافي الحرارة.
