Legal requirements associated with flaring is depended on the respective country. Typically legislation requires operators to have consent in place for the flaring and venting of hydrocarbons during production operations. Flaring and venting and associated emissions should be at the lowest possible levels in the circumstances.Continue Reading

Flaring can achieve up to 98% carbon efficiency during optimal operation, however, various climate conditions could drop the efficiency to as low as 50%.Continue Reading

Ignition system to ensure waste gas is immediately ignited during release.Continue Reading

Waste gas is mixed with steam or air as they are pumped through the header system. The mixed gas will then be ignited by the flare pilot as it travels up the flare stack.Continue Reading

Ground flares Pit flares Elevated flares Air-assisted flares Steam-assisted flares Gas-assisted flares Boom flares Sonic flares High or low-pressure flares Low noise flares Low radiation flaresContinue Reading

Flaring is the combustion of natural gas at the end of the flare stack. Flame is visible. An incinerator is the mixing and combusting of gas and air in an enclosed chamber. Flame is not visible if operating properly.Continue Reading
