Special properties

Figures are based on estimated total emissions of 0.9 GtCOâ‚‚e

Supplementary notes

Figures are based on fugitive and exhaust emissions from combustion-related processes of crude oil refining.

Oil refining emissions are estimated with the Petroleum Refinery Life-Cycle Inventory Model (PRELIM). PRELIM estimates energy use and greenhouse gas emissions associated with processing various crude oil types for different refinery configurations. Inputs include refinery locations, configurations, and crude refining throughputs to generate GHG intensities and absolute emissions by country.

Figures account for greenhouse gas emissions based on their 100-year global warming potential (GWP).
