RefineryNigeriaCO₂ reported
Waltersmith Modular Refinery is a refinery in Nigeria with a reported capacity of 5,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by Waltersmith Petroman Oil Ltd. By capacity it ranks #8 of 9 oil refineries tracked in Nigeria. It emits about 21,940 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 5,114 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 48% below the median refinery.

Przy 5,000 BBL per day, Waltersmith Modular Refinery jest poniżej medianę refinery w Nigeria (18,000 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.
