Analysis
The most recent figure for energy — emissions in Oman is 74,600 kt, measured in 2023. That is the highest value across all 63 years on record.
That represents a change of up 1.1% on the previous year and up 17.5% over ten years.
Over the whole period, energy — emissions in Oman peaked at 74,600 kt in 2023 and was at its lowest, 0 kt, in 1961.
That places Oman 58th out of 231 countries with data for 2023, putting it in the top quarter.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

About this data
The FAOSTAT domain on Emissions Totals summarizes the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions disseminated in the FAOSTAT Climate Change domains of emissions from agrifood systems. Data are computed following the Tier 1 methods of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Guidelines for National greenhouse gas (GHG) Inventories (IPCC, 1996; 1997; 2000; 2002; 2006; 2014). Emissions from other economic sectors as defined by the IPCC are also disseminated in the domain for completeness.
