CNOOC Asphalt Binzhou Refinery — China

Refinery in China. Approximate location 37.39179, 118.0613.

RefineryChinaCO₂ not individually reported

CNOOC Asphalt Binzhou Refinery is a refinery in China. Refineries heat, fractionate and chemically transform crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through energy-intensive distillation and cracking — extremely demanding on steam generation and heat recovery. It is operated by China Offshore Bitumen Co Ltd. No facility-measured CO₂ figure is available in the open dataset used here.

In context: how this facility compares

Subsector: oil-and-gas-refining. As refinery, it requires high process heat (typically 200–600°C) for its core industrial operations, supplied by boilers, furnaces or direct combustion. Refineries heat, fractionate and chemically transform crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through energy-intensive distillation and cracking — extremely demanding on steam generation and heat recovery.

Carbon emissions

No facility-measured CO₂ is published for CNOOC Asphalt Binzhou Refinery; Climate TRACE provides only a refinery sector-level estimate, so a precise per-site figure, ranking or carbon cost would be misleading and is not shown.

CO₂: Climate TRACE sector-level estimate (not facility-measured).

Local climate

CNOOC Asphalt Binzhou Refinery sits in a humid subtropical (dry winter) climate zone (Köppen Cwa), at 37.4°N in the northern hemisphere.

~19°Ctypical annual mean
~27°Ctypical warm-season
Humid subtropical (dry winter): four distinct seasons — cold winters and warm summers

Köppen zone: Köppen-Geiger world climate classification (Kottek et al. 2006, 0.5° grid).

Site climate & environmental severity

This site sits in a moderately corrosive environment (estimated ISO 9223 class C3 — Medium), with thermal cycling the leading environmental stress.

In this site’s local climate, a bare 150 °C surface sheds about 1364 W/m² to ambient — roughly 1.05× the loss at a 20 °C reference. Reference-surface calculation at a 150 °C surface from WorldClim climate normals (ASTM C680 / ISO 12241) — an indicative per-climate comparison, not a measurement of this site’s specific equipment.

Indicative estimate via the ISO 9223:2012 informative method (atmospheric corrosivity from temperature, time-of-wetness and airborne salinity), using WorldClim climate normals, the Köppen-Geiger class and coast distance. Indicative, not a measured corrosion rate.
