Innovative Trailer-Mounted Flaring


Design Translates To Fast Deployment
And Multiple Applications
Mobile self-erecting flare system The deployment of the mobile flare has
shown installed on site, with extended to applications such as degassing an
integral trailer-mounted flare ammonia refrigeration system, and most
control room. recently a butane sphere. Corrosion of the sup-
porting legs of the sphere meant that a statuto-
ry internal inspection could not be completed
using a conventional water fill and drain pro-
cedure. Environmental legislation prohibited
the degassing of the butane to atmosphere, and
therefore a temporary mobile flaring solution
was proposed, accepted and satisfactorily com-
pleted.
The importance of fast deployment com-
bined with the continuing need to differentiate
