Conex Monrovia Modular Refinery — Liberia
Refinery in Liberia. Approximate location 6.34906, -10.79248.
RefineryLiberiaCO₂ estimate (modelled)
Conex Monrovia Modular Refinery is a refinery in Liberia. Its listed capacity is 10,000 BBL per day. 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 emits about 40,778 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is 53% below the national median for this sector.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-40040665.

In context: how this facility compares
At 10,000 BBL per day, Conex Monrovia Modular Refinery is around the median refinery in Liberia (10,000 BBL per day). 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.

Local climate
Conex Monrovia Modular Refinery sits in a tropical monsoon climate zone (Köppen Am), at 6.3°N in the northern hemisphere.
Köppen zone: Köppen-Geiger world climate classification (Kottek et al. 2006, 0.5° grid).
Site climate & environmental severity
This site sits in an extreme marine/tropical environment (estimated ISO 9223 class CX — Extreme), with marine salt corrosion the leading environmental stress.
In this site’s local climate, a bare 150 °C surface sheds about 1238 W/m² to ambient — roughly 0.95× 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.
