RefineryOmanCO₂ reported
Oman Duqm Refinery is a refinery in Oman with a reported capacity of 230,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by Kuwait Petroleum Corp. By capacity it ranks #1 of 3 oil refineries tracked in Oman. It emits about 3,142,119 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 732,429 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 62% above the median refinery.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-712784.
Bei 230,000 BBL per day ist Oman Duqm Refinery etwa um dem Medianwert von refinery in Oman (198,000 BBL per day). Sein CO₂ pro Kapazitätseinheit liegt ungefähr 30% über 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.
