For over four decades, Panametrics has used ultrasonic meters to provide a better way to measure gas flare, but the unique requirements of today’s flare gas measurement and control applications now require more complex solutions.

At Panametrics, we offer IoT Oil & Gas solutions for measuring, monitoring, and controlling flare gas flow, reducing emissions, lowering costs, and bringing greater reliability to your upstream, midstream, or downstream operations. 

Our extensive knowledge of flare applications provides more than just flow information. With tools like the flare.IQ platform which utilizes an advanced process control algorithm, we are able to work with our customers to efficiently control flares, while also providing world-class ultrasonic flowmeters, services, and training you need to keep your operation running smoothly.

See how flare.IQ reduces your overall emissions to ensure regulatory compliance and meet your corporate targets by providing real-time dynamic control of your flare assist systems and transparency in your plant’s baseline emissions.

With more than 5,000 meters installed around the globe and decades of optimized flare management, Panametrics continues to partner with industries to improve flare measurement and enhance the accuracy and transparency of their operations.

Every installation is unique, but most were not designed with metering in mind. Short, straight runs and the uncertain impact of instrumentation and piping arrangements can significantly affect performance. We can help you understand these effects and reduce uncertainty

Our ultrasonic flow meters offer accurate flare measurement & diagnostic capabilites.

Optimize your flare operations with flare.IQ's control, diagnostic & digital verification capabilites.

From spare parts to onsite assessments and remote support, we're here to help.

Our experienced trainers provide courses customized to your needs & equipment.

Early innovations in flare measurement by Panametrics have evolved extensively over the years.  For over four decades, Panametrics has used ultrasonic meters to provide a better way to measure applications, but the unique requirements of today’s flare gas applications now require more complex operational features.

Panametrics has developed a unique ultrasonic meter that manages low-end flow for normal operation and continues to measure flow during adverse conditions, where the flow range would exceed conventional technologies. Our meter has no restrictions and eliminates backpressure that can cause safety issues in flares. It can also determine the molecular weight of hydrocarbon gas, yielding a mass flow measurement that identifies which type of gas is flaring.

Today the need for flare systems has moved beyond understanding the flow and knowing the bulk molecular weight. Growing public pressure to lessen the environmental impact of emissions, especially gases like methane, now expects efficient combustion and accurate meter measurements. Panametrics has solved this challenge, integrating diagnostics from the flare meter with new advanced process control algorithms to determine flare gas BTU content. 

Complying with emissions control regulations like GHG EPA 40 CFR and MACT RS 63.670 takes more than just an accurate flow meter. We have the procedures and expertise needed to ensure you’re in compliance. From evaluating site data for a recommendation on an installation to field commissioning a new meter or inspecting and certifying existing installations, our applications engineering and field services teams have the expertise and regulatory knowledge to guide you.
