Flare Monitoring

Industrial Flare Stack Monitoring with AI Thermal Imaging | GoThermal Solution


REAL-TIME FLARE CONDITION AND PILOT FLAME MONITORING

Ensure safety, efficiency, and compliance with continuous AI-driven thermal oversight.

Flare stack monitoring is essential to maintaining safety, efficiency, and regulatory compliance in today’s industrial plants. At GoThermal, we provide advanced thermal imaging and gas detection systems that deliver continuous oversight of flare tips and pilot flames. With real-time monitoring, AI-powered analytics, and automated reporting, our solutions give operators the tools they need to reduce emissions, prevent unlit flares, and protect both people and the environment. Built tough for the harshest conditions and designed for seamless integration, our technology ensures reliable performance where it matters most.

With the GoThermal remote flare monitoring solution, operators gain round-the-clock insight into every detail of flare performance. The system is designed to detect and alert in real time whenever abnormal conditions occur, including pilot flame outages, flare size fluctuations, liquid carryover, or complete pilot failures. By tracking multiple Regions of Interest (RoI) around the flare tip and pilots, it provides a comprehensive view of flame stability, combustion quality, and supporting components. This constant visibility empowers operators to respond quickly, maintain safe operations, reduce emissions, and avoid costly downtime, all while meeting strict environmental and regulatory requirements.

By integrating our infrared cameras, advanced software, and AI-driven analytics, GoThermal delivers a comprehensive and versatile solution designed to meet modern industry demands.

Why Continuous Flare Monitoring Matters?

Flare stacks play a vital role in protecting both people and the environment at refineries, petrochemical plants, LNG facilities, and other industrial sites. They provide a controlled way to burn off excess gases and prevent dangerous pressure build-ups.

When pilots fail or combustion efficiency drops, the risks increase dramatically. An unlit pilot can allow hazardous gases to escape into the atmosphere, while poor combustion reduces safety and increases harmful emissions that threaten compliance with strict environmental standards. Relying on manual inspections only adds to the challenge, as they are time-consuming, inconsistent, and expose personnel to unnecessary risk.

To meet today’s safety and environmental demands, modern facilities require continuous, automated monitoring of flare tips and pilot flames. Advanced thermal imaging and gas detection systems provide reliable, real-time oversight, enabling plants to maintain safe operations, reduce emissions, and stay aligned with international regulations.

OUR THERMAL MONITORING SOLUTION

GoThermal’s flare stack monitoring solution combines advanced infrared thermography with AI analytics, giving operators 24/7 oversight of flare tips and pilots.


ATEX-Rated Thermal Cameras for Industrial Flare Monitoring


24/7 Thermal Monitoring


Our systems provide continuous infrared observation of flare tips and pilot flames, ensuring round-the-clock visibility of critical operations. This constant monitoring removes the uncertainty of manual checks and delivers peace of mind that your flare systems are operating safely at all times.

Pilot Flame Assurance


With real-time detection technology, pilot outages are identified the moment they occur. Instant alerts allow operators to take immediate action, preventing unlit flares and the dangerous release of unburned gases into the atmosphere.


Combustion Efficiency Tracking


Dual-spectrum thermal imaging goes beyond simple flame detection by measuring the quality of combustion itself. Facilities can monitor whether gases are burning efficiently, reducing harmful emissions and ensuring compliance with strict environmental standards.

AI-Powered Analytics


Built-in artificial intelligence continuously analyzes thermal and gas detection data. It automatically identifies anomalies, inefficiencies, and potential safety risks before they escalate, giving operators the insight they need to act proactively.


Instant Alarms & Reports


Operators receive real-time notifications via SMS, email, SCADA, or cloud dashboards. This ensures that critical information reaches the right people immediately, improving response times and reducing the chance of accidents.


Compliance-Ready Documentation


Automated logs and reports are generated for every monitored event. These detailed records simplify environmental audits, proving compliance with local and international regulations without the burden of manual recordkeeping.

Frequently Asked Questions


GoThermal Flare Monitoring Solutions for Harsh Environments

What is flare stack monitoring?
Continuous observation of flare tips and pilot flames using thermal imaging to ensure combustion efficiency and safety.

 

Why is pilot flame monitoring important?
Pilots ignite the main flare gas stream. If a pilot goes out, unburned hydrocarbons may be released, creating compliance failures and safety hazards.

 

How does thermal imaging improve flare monitoring?
Infrared cameras detect heat signatures invisible to the human eye, instantly identifying outages, incomplete combustion, and efficiency losses.

 

Does this solution meet environmental compliance standards?
Yes. Automated reports align with EPA, EU, and local regulations, making audits simple and reliable.

 

Can it integrate with existing control systems?
Yes. Compatible with SCADA, IoT, and cloud systems via secure RESTful APIs.



Take the Next Step

Ensure your flare stacks and pilots are always monitored, always compliant, always safe.
