Bahrain Petroleum Company Refinery

Bahrain Petroleum Company Refinery is a refinery in Bahrain with a reported capacity of 270,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by Bahrain Petroleum Co. It emits about 4,006,005 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 933,801 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 76% above the median refinery.

Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-3143738.

Im Kontext: wie sich diese Anlage vergleicht

Bei 270,000 BBL per day ist Bahrain Petroleum Company Refinery etwa um dem Medianwert von refinery in Bahrain (270,000 BBL per day). Untersektor: oil-and-gas-refining. Als refinery benötigt es intensive Prozesswärme (typischerweise 200–600°C) für seinen Kernbetrieb — Wärme, die durch Dampfkessel, Öfen oder direkte Verbrennung geliefert werden muss, und Verluste durch ungedämmte Behälter und Rohrleitungen stellen verschwendeten Brennstoff dar. Modulare abnehmbare Dämmung kann diese Verluste um 80–96% senken, Oberflächen auf ≤45°C kühlen, mit Amortisationszeiten oft unter 2 Jahren. Raffinerien wärmen auf, fraktionieren und chemisch transformieren Rohöl durch energieintensive Destillation und Cracken in Brennstoffe und petrochemische Rohstoffe — extrem anspruchsvoll für Dampfzeugung und Wärmenutzung.
