Global refining capacity 2022-2030, by scenario and region
The refining capacity in the Atlantic Basin stood at nearly **** million barrels per day, while the region East of Suez reported **** million barrels per day in capacity. Refining capacity in the Atlantic Basin is forecast to drop slightly in 2030 under a STEP scenario. Meanwhile, that of the East of Suez region would increase by *** percent. However, the capacity in both regions would drop to a combined **** million barrels per day under a net-zero emissions scenario. The STEP or stated policies scenario is based on current policies both already in place and under development, while the NZE or net-zero emissions scenario assumes that the global energy sector will achieve net zero COâ‚‚ emissions by 2050.
