Is the crude oil refining sector delivering on decarbonisation?

The refining industry ranks as the third largest contributor to global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from stationary sources, placing it at the centre of the energy transition and net zero efforts.

The industry has embraced a diversified investment approach to achieve net zero emissions. However, they face ongoing challenges, such as technology readiness, economic feasibility, and policy uncertainty. 

In our recent insight, Refiners’ Emissions Performance, we explore:

• Global decarbonisation projects planned within the industry
• Available decarbonisation technologies and options for refiners
• The industry’s progress in reducing emissions

Within this insight, we also utilise Wood Mackenzie’s emissions benchmarking tool (EBT) to evaluate emissions intensity and the average absolute emissions split in refineries from 2017 to 2030.
