Case Study
This facility supplies Norwegian natural gas to the German market, GBA is the supplier of the complete flare system which comprised an Enclosed Ground Flare to handle small day to day reliefs while large relief cases are staged to the Elevated Flare. This flare features a “Pilots on Demand” system in which the pilots are normally unlit and only ignited when the flare is required. 3 modes of ignition are supplied (i) Hi-Energy Electric (ii) CHT-SS “Side-Stream” pilots & (iii) Automatic FFG.
Equipment Supplied:
HP Flare – CSF-7-10 HP Multi-arm Sonic Flare on a 57m high guyed derrick
Base Load Enclosed Ground Flare EGF-20
All controls for ignition and staging.
Case Study
This project, located within the Arctic circle on the Northern coast of Siberia, presented unique challenges in terms of material selection, design and erection. This project used an Electric Ignition and Propane backup system designed for ultra-low-temperature operation. Designed to meet the Russian SNiP codes the complete structure was raised in one lift thus minimising the need for work at height.
Equipment Supplied:
Common Derrick of 125m height; One Piece Lift Design. Demountable Risers.
Dry Gas 36” Sonic Flare
Wet Gas 54” Sonic Flare
54” Spare Flare
Case Study
GBA supplied all the flaring equipment for World’s first and largest floating LNG production vessel. Unusually for offshore, consisting of steam injected flare tips this challenging project is due for commissioning in early 2018.
