High hydrogen sulphide (H2S) concentrations in flare systemspose significant operational and safety risks. To mitigate these risks, Tracerco conducted an advanced leak detection assessment on nine pressure safety valves (PSVs) within the Flare Header. The goal was to enhance safety, ensure regulatory compliance, and improve overall process efficiency using cutting-edge tracer technology and leak detection methodologies.

Understanding the significance of flaring in offshore, refinery, and petrochemical operations

Flaring has long been an integral part of offshore oil and gas, refinery, and petrochemical operations, serving as a critical safety mechanism to manage excess gas. However, with increasing environmental regulations and economic pressures, operators are scrutinising their flaring practices to minimise emissions and maximise efficiency..
