A scroll compressor includes a casing, a partition member, a compression element, and first and second flow paths provided in the partition member. The casing has a cylindrical shape with an internal space for lubricating oil. The partitioning member is fixed to the casing to divide the internal space into first and second spaces. The compression element includes fixed and movable scrolls to discharge refrigerant to the first space. The first flow path allows refrigerant to pass from the first space to the second space. The second flow path is apart from the first flow path. The second flow path guides the lubricating oil to the second space, and includes a narrow portion having a smallest flow path area. A ratio of a hydraulic diameter of the narrow portion to a length of the narrow portion in an axial direction of the casing is 0.01 to 0.07.
