“This contract represents an important step towards the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, starting with production in Paraguay and expected to extend internationally,” the group said in a statement.
The biorefinery to be built in Paraguay, called Omega Green, has received over US$ 800 million in investments, and it is estimated that when completed, it will be able to produce 20,000 barrels per day of green diesel (HVO).
In addition to Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO), also known as Renewable Diesel, the plant will produce Synthetic Paraffinic Kerosene (SPK), also known as Sustainable Aviation Fuel or Biojet, and Green Naphtha, used in the chemical industry to make green plastic, among other products.
The agreement is part of the British company’s strategy to offer low-carbon fuel to customers in the road transport and aviation sectors and to neutralize 415 million tons of CO2 equivalent (tCO2e) related to the company’s operations and BP’s oil and gas production.
