Flare Aerial Inspection Survey

Remote Flare Tip Inspection /

Helicopter FlareTip Inspection

Operators are finding it beneficial to undertake an aerial flare survey approximately 6 months prior to a planned shutdown (TAR). This allows enough time to prepare for the actual work-scope required. 

Some operators also use our Flare services once a month to gauge flare deterioration rates, on problematic installations. (Remote Flare condition monitoring).

What you receive 

The deliverables 

Following our pre-flight brief with the photographer, in which we request specific areas to be covered, we also pass on any client requests, these may be to get a few shots of the flare support structure, flare deck covering or flaredeck panels.

The following is provided:  

• A set of Quality Photographs taken by a professional photographer (typically 20 – 25 photographs).  

• If requested, the photographs can also be supplied digitally by CD, or in situations where photographs are required on an urgent basis selected photographs can be emailed.  

• If required Argo Flares can also provide a detailed report on the condition of the flares, highlighting any possible areas of concern, along with likely consequences of any failure mode. 

What is required 

Space on a flight 

• Two return seats on a scheduled crew change flight (one for the photographer and one for the additional cabin crew to allow the aircraft to fly with its door open).

• An additional ½ hr between crew change-over for the flight (typical time required for a simple installation).
