Refinery in Indonesia. Approximate location -6.38138, 108.39339.

RefineryIndonesiaCO₂ reported

Pertamina Balongan Refinery is a refinery in Indonesia with a reported capacity of 150,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by PT Pertamina (Persero) . By capacity it ranks #3 of 8 oil refineries tracked in Indonesia. It emits about 732,951 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 170,851 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 42% below the median refinery.

في السياق: كيف يتم مقارنة هذا المنشأة

عند 150,000 BBL per day، يكون Pertamina Balongan Refinery أعلى بكثير من متوسط refinery في Indonesia (120,000 BBL per day). CO₂ لكل وحدة سعة هو تقريباً 36% 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.
