The paper presents the steps required to undertake an energy audit in oil treatment facilities and presents key energy performance indicators that can be applied to benchmarking and monitoring of this type of system. The proposed indicators are classified into the five following categories: production, consumption, efficiency, cost and reliability indicators. The paper also presents some general initiatives, short, medium or long term, that are classified according to their maturity and their economic benefits in order to increase energy efficiency.

Keywords : Production facilities; Key performance indicators; Energy performance.
