Region Europe
The site extends over 250 Ha and produces 4.5 million tonnes of product per year. The work scope involved the close visual inspection of an 80m high flare stack, while live and operational.
Shell Moerdijk required a rapid deployment to its facility to aid troubleshooting and defect analysis of the flare. The purpose of this inspection was to provide detailed information to the on-site technical team regarding the operation of the pilot burners and the flame front generator. The detailed inspection report compared the current condition to past inspections, to understand if there had been any deterioration and to assist with effective maintenance.
Oil and gas supermajor, Shell, called upon Cyberhawk to conduct a live flare inspection at Moerdijk, one of the Netherland’s largest chemical plants.
