ARC Aden Refinery

ARC Aden Refinery is a refinery in Yemen with a reported capacity of 110,000 BBL per day. It processes crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through distillation, cracking and reforming. It is operated by Aden Refinery Co. By capacity it ranks #1 of 2 oil refineries tracked in Yemen. It emits about 448,562 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 104,560 cars. Its CO₂ per unit of capacity is about 52% below the median refinery.

В контексте: как это предприятие сравнивается

На мощности 110,000 BBL per day ARC Aden Refinery — это примерно медианная refinery в Yemen (110,000 BBL per day). Подсектор: oil-and-gas-refining. Как refinery, оно требует высокотемпературного технологического тепла (обычно 200–600°C) для основных промышленных операций — тепла, которое должно подаваться котлами, печами или прямым сжиганием, и потери через неизолированные сосуды и трубопроводы представляют потраченное впустую топливо. Съёмная модульная теплоизоляция может снизить эти потери на 80–96%, охладив поверхность оборудования до ≤45°C, с окупаемостью часто менее 2 лет. Нефтеперерабатывающие заводы нагревают, фракционируют и химически преобразуют сырую нефть в топливо и нефтехимическое сырьё путём энергоёмкой дистилляции и крекинга — чрезвычайно требовательны к генерации пара и рекуперации тепла.

Сравнение производительности и интенсивности CO₂ рассчитано на основе данных промышленных объектов Climate TRACE; роль сектора основана на инженерных справочниках.
