Analysis# Oman CO2 Emissions per Capita
Oman's per capita CO2 emissions reached 18.652 metric tons in 2024, representing a substantial 68.1% increase from 1970 levels. The nation peaked at 35.343 metric tons in 1976, more than double current output, before declining to a historic low of 7.207 metric tons in 1985. Since that low point, emissions have generally trended upward, though current levels remain half the 1976 peak.
Recent years reveal relative stability with minor fluctuations. Between 2015 and 2024, annual emissions oscillated between 17.931 and 19.683 metric tons, with no decisive upward or downward momentum. The 2024 figure represents a slight decrease from 2023's 18.96 metric tons, suggesting possible stabilization after the 2022 peak of 19.683. Oman's emissions profile reflects the tension between economic development tied to oil and gas production and emerging efficiency improvements.
