Flare Tanks

Safer Disposal of Fluid and Gas

During well-control situations, flare tanks allow disposal of drilling fluid and excess gas without harming the environment. Using a flare tank on a drill site also reduces the risks of injury, rig fires and water table contamination. Strad offers a variety of flare tanks for all types of field conditions.
