Flare and Landfill Gas Balancing
The flare ran continuously during Q4 2015 as shown in Fig 1 and the methane % flared is
shown in Fig 2.
In general the flare has been maintaining a temperature over 1000°C, and is running well. It
ran continuously for 24hours a day.
The methane sensor was in an error state from 19th
October 2016 to 23rd
October 2016.
However the flare continued to run as recorded by run time, blower speed and field suction.
Gas balancing was carried out by IBSL. Onsite gas well balancing reports are shown below.
