  • How many oil refineries are in Sudan?
  • Sudan has three oil refineries and three topping plants (smaller, less complex refineries). However, most of these facilities have either been shut in or decommissioned; only the al-Jaili refinery, which is the country¡¯s largest refinery and is approximately 45 miles north of Khartoum, and the El-Obeid topping plant are currently operating.
  • Where is the largest oil refinery in Sudan?
  • The al-Jaili refinery, located approximately 45 miles north of Khartoum, is the country¡¯s largest, with a capacity of 100,000 b/d. The other full-conversion refinery is the Port Sudan refinery (21,700 b/d), and the three topping plants are El-Obeid (10,000 b/d), Shajirah (10,000 b/d), and Abu Gabra (2,000 b/d).
  • What does Bentiu refinery do in South Sudan?
  • In South Sudan, the refinery at Bentiu finished construction and began commercial operations in 2021. The refinery at Bentiu can produce diesel, gasoline, and heavy fuel oil from domestic crude oil, enabling the country to meet some of its consumption needs and raising the possibility of exporting petroleum products regionally.
  • Why did Sudan develop refinery capacity?
  • Sudan developed refinery capacity to extend its value chain. In 1996, CNPC and Sudanese Petroleum Corporation (SPC) jointly built the Khartoum Refinery Co. Ltd (KRC) to produce fuel products domestically. With the rapid growth of crude oil production, refinery capacity was expanded to 100,000 bpd in 2006.
  • How much oil does Sudan export?
  • Sudan exported $317 million in crude oil exports in 2020. In 2021, its oil fields produced 59,000 barrels per day (bpd). The Sudan Oil Refinery has the capacity to refine 90-95,000 bpd. The Sudanese government also receives an in-kind royalty payment of 14,000 bpd from the government of South Sudan for oil pipeline transit rights to Port Sudan.
  • Who owns the oil industry in South Sudan?
  • Sudapet, the national oil company, holds minority stakes in each of the international consortia operating in the oil-producing blocks. In South Sudan, the administrative structure largely mirrors Sudan¡¯s. The Ministry of Petroleum and Mining is responsible for managing South Sudan¡¯s petroleum sector.
