VENT & FLARE

VENT = SYSTEM DESIGNED TO VENT GAS TO ATMOSTPHERE
WITHOUT FLARING
COLD VENT = VENT HANDLING SIGNIFICANT FLOWRATE FROM

PRESSURISED EQUIPMENT.
Suitable for Satellite wellhead installations due to
limited source of ignition.
Cold Vent
COLD MEANS “WITHOUT FLAME”
COLD VENT – CRITERIA (TYPICAL)

2. Elevated flares assist in gas dispersion.
3. Elevated flares generally have lower radiation

Remember !! sudden change in composition when NEW WELL comes on
line.
Instrument & utility gas system should be separate in order
to avoid liquid carryover in instrument gas system when
demand for utility gas is very high.
