Oman: Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions per capita

The latest value from 2024 is 18.65 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per capita, a decline from 18.96 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per capita in 2023. In comparison, the world average is 4.67 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per capita, based on data from 189 countries. Historically, the average for Oman from 1970 to 2024 is 15.09 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per capita. The minimum value, 7.21 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per capita, was reached in 1985 while the maximum of 35.34 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per capita was recorded in 1976.

Definition: Total annual emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the agriculture, energy, waste, and industrial sectors, excluding LULUCF, standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values divided by the economy's population. This measure excludes GHG fluxes caused by Land Use, Land-Use Change and Forestry (LULUCF), as these fluxes have larger uncertainties.
