Description

ESU-services Ltd. has updated the Life Cycle Inventory models for crude and mineral oil products. Before the Life Cycle Inventory models are implemented in the KBOB database v2.2:2016 of the Swiss Federal Office for the Environment (FOEN) and the Swiss Federal Office of Energy (SFOE), it is necessary to validate these updated Life Cycle Inventory models in accordance with the data quality guidelines of ecoinvent v2.2. The updated Life Cycle Inventory models for crude and mineral oil products contain about 120 Ecospold v1 data sets. The aim of the validation is to validate the documentation and the EcoSpold v1 datasets of all updated Life Cycle Inventory models of the crude and mineral oil supply chain according to the quality guidelines and data quality requirements of ecoinvent v2.2.
