Congo_Lower Congo_Heavy oil

Congo_Lower Congo_Heavy oil is an oil & gas field in Congo. It extracts crude oil and natural gas at the wellhead. It emits about 260,125 tonnes of CO₂e per year (Climate TRACE) — roughly the tailpipe emissions of 60,635 cars.

Facility data: Climate TRACE v6 (asset-level capacity & CO₂e, CC BY 4.0), id ct-53058688.

В контексте: как это предприятие сравнивается

Подсектор: oil-and-gas-production. Месторождения нефти и газа и установки добычи работают с компрессорами, сепараторами и подогреваемыми аппаратами; потери тепла из паропровода и горячих трубопроводов снижают эффективность добычи.

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