Abstract

L'invention concerne une torchère immergée en mer. Une torchère 14 flottante ou fixe est située en un emplacement éloigné d'une plate-forme P de forage en mer à laquelle elle est raccordée par un conduit immergé 20 d'amenée des gaz perdus et par un conduit immergé 13 par lequel du gaz combustible est fourni à la torchère pour alimenter des veilleuses et des allumeurs de veilleuse prévus sur la torchère et qui comporte des conducteurs électriques isolés pour commander des robinets montés dans les canalisations de gaz combustible, pour actionner les allumeurs et pour transmettre à la plate-forme des informations relatives au fonctionnement de la torchère. Application aux torchères en mer servant à brûler les gaz perdus.The invention relates to a flare submerged at sea. A floating or stationary flare 14 is located at a location remote from an offshore drilling platform P to which it is connected by an immersed pipe 20 for supplying waste gas and by an immersed conduit 13 through which combustible gas is supplied to the flare to supply pilot lights and pilot igniters provided on the flare and which comprises insulated electrical conductors for controlling valves mounted in the fuel gas pipes, to actuate the igniters and to transmit to the platform information relating to the operation of the flare. Application to flares at sea used to burn waste gases.
