The project made significant progress in strengthening the sound management of chemicals and waste in the oil sector and demonstrated progress across three relevant Core Indicator Criteria. It conducted a comprehensive chemical inventory at the Lavan Oil Refinery, identifying pollution sources and evaluating chemical management options in alignment with international conventions. The project also enhanced the knowledge of oil industry managers and planners through capacity building activities, particularly in cleaner production and pollution prevention approaches. Finally, it provided guidance on minimizing environmental contamination in the oil industry, which was subsequently shared with policymakers.
