Djarmaya Oil Refinery — Chad
Refinery in Chad. Approximate location 12.41416, 15.09699.
RefineryChadCO₂ estimate (modelled)
Djarmaya Oil Refinery is a refinery in Chad. Its listed capacity is 20,000 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 is operated by Societe des Hydrocarbures du Tchad SA. It emits about 81,557 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. That is 80% of the CO₂e from the 3 facilities in Chad that have an emissions figure in IndustryAtlas. 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-40040654.

In context: how this facility compares
At 20,000 BBL per day, Djarmaya Oil Refinery is around the median refinery in Chad (20,000 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.
