what is an enclosed gas flare
Flaring is the controlled burning of natural gas and a common practice in oil/gas exploration, production and processing. operations. A flare system consists of a flare stack and pipes that feed gas to the stack. Flare size and brightness are. related to the type and amount of gas or liquids in the flare stack. Flares generate heat and noise. Large flares can be quite. noisy because of the volume and velocity of the gas going through the flare stack. Because natural gas is valuable, companies would rather. capture than flare it.
