BAKU, Azerbaijan, December 10. Iran is
implementing projects worth $550 million aimed at optimizing energy
consumption at its oil refineries, Trend reports, citing the National Iranian Oil
Products Refining and Distribution Company (NIORDC)
The focus of these projects is on applying energy consumption
standards and ensuring that all refineries adhere to these
standards based on their energy usage.
Current data indicates that energy utilization across the
nation’s petroleum refining facilities, aside from operational
demands, hovers at an approximate threshold of 60 million barrels
of crude oil annually.
Iran is presently engaged in the operation of ten oil refineries,
boasting a crude oil processing throughput of roughly 2.37 million
barrels per day.
Moreover, considering the elevated energy demand during the summer
months and the augmented gas consumption in the winter season, the
imperative to enhance energy efficiency across diverse sectors
continues to be a paramount focus within the nation.
