FlaringFlaring Overview Reduce flaring Go to section OverviewReduce flaring Home Search Results Gas flaring contributes significantly to upstream sector emissions. TGT’s diagnostics locate the source of unwanted gas enabling it to be sealed off, thereby reducing the need to flare.Reduce flaring At an estimated 310 MtCO2, routine and non-routine gas flaring is one of the largest and most pervasive sources of upstream CO2, accounting for ~30% of all upstream emissions globally. During oil production, associated gas is produced from the reservoir together with the oil. Much of this gas is utilised, but excess gas is flared because of technical, regulatory, or economic constraints. Understanding the source is a key step in minimising the flaring of excess gas.   If unwanted gas is produced unexpectedly from targeted or non-targeted formation layers, it may be possible to shut this off if the source can be precisely located. Conventional well diagnostics can locate where gas is entering the wellbore, but not always the true source. TGT’s True Flow and Seal Integrity products can identify the primary source and pathways of unwanted gas from formations beyond the wellbore, even behind casing. This can lead the way to stopping the gas and its associated flaring. Flaring is responsible for more than 30% of all upstream CO2 emissions.

Know where your flow is going with True Flow True Flow diagnostics reveal elusive flowpaths around the entire well system, so you can get an accurate picture of where your flow is, or isn’t, going.   Understanding how fluids flow between permeable formation layers and the well completion is key to managing performance. This includes flow behind casing in unperforated zones, and between producing or injection layers.   True Flow gives you a complete picture of flow dynamics, so you get the insights you need to make informed decisions, keeping your well safe, clean, and productive. The system approach Much of what affects performance happens outside the wellbore, beyond the reach of conventional tools. That’s why we use diagnostic systems, not just tools.   They see more, completely and accurately, from the wellbore to the outer reaches of the well, into the reservoir. The picture they reveal enables you to better understand what is happening and manage your well more effectively.   Our True Flow diagnostic system follows a logical workflow and is powered by four remarkable technology platforms—Chorus, Cascade, Indigo and Maxim. Each platform is charged with a specific task, but works together to reveal a more complete picture of flow within your well system.   Each ingredient is the result of our ingenuity and relentless drive to reveal a greater truth. The product approach The final link in the True Flow diagnostic system is our tailored portfolio of proprietary products.   The products are designed to address the full spectrum of well system flow challenges, True Flow products provide the in-depth answers you need to keep your well performing productively and profitably.
