AI-powered flare monitoring

Advanced Flare Monitoring with AI

Oiler.ai delivers continuous, AI-powered flare monitoring that converts visual combustion behavior into quantified performance indicators — enabling operators to assess combustion efficiency, emissions performance, and flare operating quality in real time.

Why flare monitoring is fundamentally hard

Traditional approaches struggle with the inherent challenges of long-range combustion observation.

Challenges

Long-distance signal degradation

Elevated flares cause severe image attenuation and loss of detail at 100–200m distances.

Weather sensitivity

Wind, rain, fog, and snow distort flames and obscure combustion signals.

No real combustion feedback

Operators lack real-time insight into flame stability, smoke, or efficiency.

Oiler's Approach

AI signal enhancement & image restoration

Recovers flame structure and boundaries from degraded optical signals.

Weather-adaptive algorithms

Correct for wind tilt, visibility loss, and environmental noise.

Quantified combustion intelligence

Converts visuals into measurable performance indicators.

From visual flame to combustion intelligence

Oiler transforms raw flare imagery into actionable performance metrics.

Smoke index
Flame stability
Combustion efficiency (CE)
Destruction & removal efficiency (DRE)
Fractional heat release

All indicators are computed continuously using edge AI and computer vision — no inferential proxies.

AI-powered transformation from raw flare imagery to actionable metrics

Closed-loop flare combustion control

Oiler doesn't stop at monitoring. AI-derived combustion metrics feed directly into control systems, enabling real-time adjustment of assist fuel and oxidizer flow.
