  • Can Plastic pyrolysis increase oil production in Saudi Arabia?
  • The oil production potential through plastic pyrolysis technology in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is only 12.33 Kb/d, with the possibility of reaching 124.31 Kb/d by 2060. This level is very low compared to the total oil production capacity of the country of approximately 12 MMb/d, which is planned to increase even further in the future.
  • Can Saudi Arabia produce synthetic fuel from plastics?
  • In any case, according to our estimations, given the low recycling capacity of Saudi Arabia, the current capacity for synthetic fuel production from plastics in the Kingdom is approximately 20 Kboe/d, with the potential to reach almost 125 Kboe/d in 2060. By 2040, that potential could reach 67.5 Kb/d (Figure 7).
  • Will Saudi Arabia export gas and petrochemicals soon?
  • Press release, September 27, 2020. Saudi Gazette. (2020). Saudi Arabia plans to export gas and petrochemicals soon.¡¯ February 16, 2020. Sauvé, S., Bernard, S., & Sloan, P. (2016). Environmental sciences, sustainable development and circular economy: Alternative concepts for trans-disciplinary research.
  • Are there regulatory gaps in CCS in Saudi Arabia?
  • A recent UN study found that significant regulatory gaps remain in CCS across Gulf Cooperation Council countries, including Saudi Arabia, and identified the need for new and innovative financial incentives to scale up CCS beyond EOR, including to industrial facilities through new or retrofitted integrated CCS (ESCWA, 2017).
  • Will plastic-to-oil potential reach 4 MMB/D by 2060?
  • However, by 2060, the plastic-to-oil potential could reach 4 MMb/d. For Saudi Arabia, the potential presents similar limitations. Today, oil production through plastic pyrolysis in the Kingdom is only 12.33 Kb/d, with the possibility of reaching 124.31 Kb/d by 2060.
  • Which companies are converting oil derived from plastic waste into circular polymers?
  • Aramco, TotalEnergies, and SABIC have for the first time in the Middle East and North Africa successfully converted oil derived from plastic waste into ISCC+ certified circular polymers.
