Valero Pembroke Refinery is a refinery in United Kingdom 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 Valero Energy Corp. By capacity it ranks #1 of 6 oil refineries tracked in United Kingdom. It emits about 2,477,577 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 577,524 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 9% above the median refinery.

Przy 270,000 BBL per day, Valero Pembroke Refinery jest około medianę refinery w United Kingdom (221,000 BBL per day). Podsektor: oil-and-gas-refining. Jako refinery, wymaga intensywnego ciepła procesowego (typowo 200–600°C) do swoich głównych operacji przemysłowych — ciepła, które musi być dostarczane przez kotły, piece lub spalanie bezpośrednie, a straty przez nieisolowane zbiorniki i rury stanowią zmarnowane paliwo. Modułowa izolacja demontowalna może zmniejszyć te straty o 80–96%, chłodząc powierzchnie do ≤45°C, z zwrotem inwestycji często poniżej 2 lat. Rafinerie ogrzewają, frakcjonują i chemicznie transformują ropę naftową w paliwa i surowce petrochemiczne poprzez destylację i krekowanie o wysokim natężeniu energii — niezwykle wymagające w stosunku do generowania pary i odzysku ciepła.
