PetrochemicalRussian FederationCO₂ estimate (modelled)
Novokuibyshevsk Petrochemical Company, Samara is a petrochemical plant in Russian Federation. Its listed capacity is 182,000 t of ethylene. Petrochemical plants crack hydrocarbons at very high temperatures to produce ethylene, propylene and other building-block chemicals — one of the most heat-intensive industrial processes. It is operated by Rosneft PJSC. By capacity it ranks #8 among 9 petrochemical plants in Russian Federation. It emits about 207,394 t CO₂e a year from Climate TRACE. That is 0.09% of the CO₂e from the 186 facilities in Russian Federation that have an emissions figure in IndustryAtlas. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is 13% below the national median for this sector.
Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-731989.

In context: how this facility compares
At 182,000 t of ethylene, Novokuibyshevsk Petrochemical Company, Samara is below the median petrochemical plant in Russian Federation (420,000 t of ethylene). Subsector: petrochemical-steam-cracking. As petrochemical plant, it requires high process heat (typically 300–800°C) for its core industrial operations, supplied by boilers, furnaces or direct combustion. Petrochemical plants crack hydrocarbons at very high temperatures to produce ethylene, propylene and other building-block chemicals — one of the most heat-intensive industrial processes.
