Where Oman's CO₂ comes from
Gas is the largest source.
Per person: Oman vs the world
Production vs consumption
Counting the CO₂ embedded in the goods it imports and exports, Oman's consumption-based footprint was 83.4 million tonnes (16.5 t per person) in 2023. Oman is a net importer of emissions: its consumption causes 4% more CO₂ than it emits at home.
Primary energy use: 84,611 kWh per person (world 21,654 kWh).
