Project Description
Continuous Flare Stack Monitoring and Notification System
High quality thermal camera with automated live video processing for real-time detection and instant alerting of pilot flame ignition or failure.
Applications:
- oil and gas (well drilling, offshore rigs, gathering, distribution)
- manufacturing/processing/refining (petroleum plants, chemical plants, natural gas processing)
- waste – landfills, water treatment
Many industries produce gas waste or reclaimable gas byproducts. Industrial flaring is a regulatory requirement used to manage these emissions while also serving as a safety mechanism. For these reasons, a flare stack requires continuous monitoring as well as automated real-time notifications of flare stack failure and pilot flame ignition. IntelliView’s flare monitoring camera system, utilizing thermal imaging and video analytics technologies, provides:
- Automated, real-time detection of flame absence or ignition, day or night
- Instant alerting with photo/video for verification
- Low false alarm rate from environmental factors (glare, shadow, rain, fog, snow, and more) and camera shake
- Analytics fine tuning and object definition
- Network compatibility (SCADA, LAN, cellular, satellite, T1)
- Secure remote access to video feeds, alarms, camera controls, and settings with the IntelliView System Console (SC) or WebView
- Hardware scalability & third-party device integration
- Software scalability (multi-solution deployment, e.g. flame + security)
- Ruggedized and weatherproof enclosure for extreme or hazardous conditions
Our Flare Stack Monitoring system utilizes the new IntelliView Dual Camera Analytic Module (DCAM™), launched in the first quarter of 2016. The smart camera features double imagers (a high resolution thermal camera and a high definition color camera), image processing engine, accurate temperature detection (to 2° C), and wide temperature sensing range (-40°C to 550°C). False alarms are significantly reduced through application of algorithms and environmental filters.
Its compact design translates to minimal hardware and footprint. Live feeds, alarm notifications and video are wirelessly transmitted to the IntelliView SC or other centrally located pipeline monitoring/control centre.
With the SC, you can view thousands of live video feeds, remotely control PTZ cameras, manage alarm rules, access software tools and settings, and more.
