Why Closed & Zero Flare Systems?

Political Goals in many areas of the world Reduced Emissions (smoke, SOx, NOx & CO2) Environmental Friendly Less Noise & Light Disturbances Gas Returned to the Value Chain Reduced CO2-Taxes (in some areas, North Sea) Reduced Maintenance (on PSVs & Tip) Reduced Purging Requirements (less fuel gas)
