CNOOC Asphalt Sichuan Refinery

CNOOC Asphalt Sichuan Refinery is a refinery in China with a reported capacity of 12,060 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by China Offshore Bitumen Co Ltd. By capacity it ranks #141 of 148 oil refineries tracked in China. It emits about 76,642 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 17,865 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 25% below the median refinery.

Im Kontext: wie sich diese Anlage vergleicht

Bei 12,060 BBL per day ist CNOOC Asphalt Sichuan Refinery unter dem Medianwert von refinery in China (95,000 BBL per day). Sein CO₂ pro Kapazitätseinheit liegt ungefähr 23% unter dem Medianwert von refinery. 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.
