The objective of this document is to group the various types of gas flaring at oil production facilities in three defined categories: (i) routine flaring; (ii) safety flaring; and (iii) non-routine flaring. Categorizing each type of gas flaring in this way allows identification of potential actions for its mitigation in new or existing facilities. This mitigation may be through: (i) Commercial solutions, on-site utilization or re-injection for routine flaring; or (ii) Improved facility design and or operational procedures for routine, non-routine, and safety flaring.
