Emissions and flaring are under more scrutiny than ever - from regulators, from operators' own ESG commitments, and from the economics of not wasting gas. A flare with a pilot out is uncombusted methane venting; unmonitored, it can go on for hours. Remote monitoring turns flare and emissions status into live data and immediate alerts.
Flare and emissions monitoring software tracks flare pilot and flame status, flare-gas volume, and venting events from a cloud dashboard, alarming immediately if a pilot goes out or flaring exceeds expectations - supporting LDAR programs and emissions reporting while cutting wasted gas.
The critical states are pilot and flame status and flare-gas flow. A pilot-out condition means gas is venting uncombusted - an environmental and compliance problem - so detecting it in seconds and alarming matters. Flare-gas volume trends show how much is being flared and when, which feeds both emissions reporting and operational decisions to reduce it. Flame and flow signals come from field instruments into a PLC or RTU that Merobix reads.
Regulators (and increasingly investors) expect defensible emissions and flaring records. Continuous monitoring with a historian provides the flare-gas volume and event history that reporting requires, and immediate pilot-out alarms reduce the duration of uncombusted venting - directly cutting both emissions and the associated compliance exposure. Merobix historizes the data and delivers the alarms on every plan.
Flare pilot and flame status and flare-gas volume, plus venting events. It alarms immediately on a pilot-out condition (uncombusted venting) and trends flared volume for reporting and reduction efforts.
Yes. A pilot-out state triggers a sub-30-second alarm with escalation, so uncombusted methane venting is caught and addressed in minutes rather than hours - reducing emissions and compliance exposure.
Yes. Continuous flare-gas volume and event data retained in the historian provides the defensible record emissions and flaring reporting requires, supporting LDAR and ESG programs.
Flame status and flow instruments feed a PLC or RTU, which a cellular gateway reads into the cloud. Merobix reads Modbus and DNP3 field devices this way, with no on-premise server.
