ENI/Kuwait Petroleum Milazzo Oil Refinery — Italy

Refinery in Italy. Approximate location 38.20341, 15.27267.

RefineryItalyCO₂ estimate (modelled)

ENI/Kuwait Petroleum Milazzo Oil Refinery is a refinery in Italy. 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 Kuwait Petroleum International Ltd. It emits about 1,963,385 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. That is 4.9% of the CO₂e from the 70 facilities in Italy that have an emissions figure in IndustryAtlas.

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 cost and Scope 1 emissions

At its reported 2.0M t CO₂e/yr (Scope 1), ENI/Kuwait Petroleum Milazzo Oil Refinery carries €168M/yr of carbon at the full EU ETS price (€85/t CO₂). Free allocation phases out to 2034 (Reg. (EU) 2023/956), so today's bill is lower and rising toward this full-price figure.
