PROPOSITIONS
1. GHG emissions from oil extraction in Colombia might overtake the emissions from the refining process in the near future.
2. CO2-EOR is a key option for the energy transition and GHG emission reduction of the oil and gas industry.
3. CCS at energy intensive industries can be developed in synergy with deploying CCS-EOR.
4. Sustainable biomass feedstocks represent a fundamentally important option in making refineries carbon-neutral.
5. Electrification deployment in an oil refinery is limited by the high-temperature level required, cheap fossil energy available as a by-product and its low TRL.
6. Blue and green hydrogen utilization at the refinery can compete or be delayed by the deployment of CCS and bio-upgrading facilities.
7. The use of electrification options depends on strong increases in renewable electricity production capacity with low costs and high reliability.
8. The living experience for a PhD student in the Netherlands it can just be defined as…Er gaat niets boven
