Flare Monitoring Software Built Around the Exception, Not Just the Reading
Kissflow flags an unlit pilot or an out-of-range flare reading the moment it's logged, whether captured in the field or through an integrated sensor feed, routes the exception straight to a repair crew, and builds the regulatory report directly from the resolution and its timeline, with nothing retyped.
Trusted by energy operators worldwide
A flare stack that goes unlit for twenty minutes and gets relit before the next round looks fine on the log. It didn't look fine to whoever was standing downwind.
A flare's pilot status, flow rate, and visible smoke condition all say something about whether the flare is operating within its permit, and all of it currently gets written down after the fact, on a clipboard, if it gets written down at all before the next shift takes over. A logbook can hold a reading someone remembered to take. It can't compare that reading against a permitted threshold the moment it's entered, flag an unlit pilot as an exception in real time, route a repair crew before the next round of readings makes the pattern obvious, or hand a regulator a clean timeline from first exception to resolved repair.
Kissflow runs flare monitoring as an exception workflow instead of a clipboard log: reading and leak capture per flare stack from the field or an integrated sensor feed, threshold monitoring that checks every reading the instant it's entered, exception flagging on an unlit pilot or an out-of-range reading, a repair workflow that routes the exception to the right crew, and regulatory reporting that builds directly from the resolved exception and its timeline.
Where a flare exception hides until the next scheduled check
Readings depend on someone remembering to log them
Pilot status and flow readings get written down when someone happens to check, not on a defined interval.
Unlit pilots go unrecorded
A flare that goes unlit and relights before the next check leaves no trace that it happened.
Repairs aren't tracked to closure
A flagged issue gets a verbal repair request with no record connecting the fix back to the exception.
Regulatory reports get rebuilt from scratch
Building the report means reconstructing scattered logs instead of pulling from a continuous exception record.
Three modules. Every reading tied to a threshold and a repair.
Every module ships with default forms and dashboards. Configure the thresholds to your permit conditions.
Reading and leak capture
Pilot status, flow readings, and visible emissions are logged per flare stack, from the field or an integrated feed.
Threshold monitoring and exception flagging
A reading outside its permitted range or an unlit pilot flags as an exception the moment it's logged.
Repair-to-regulatory reporting workflow
The exception routes straight to a repair crew, and the resolution and timeline feed directly into the regulatory report, with no re-entry.
From request to system of record in four steps
Capture
Pilot status, flow rate, and visible emissions are logged per flare stack, from the field or an integrated sensor feed.
Validate
Each reading is compared automatically against its permitted range the instant it is captured, not on later review.
Track
An out-of-range reading or unlit pilot becomes a tracked exception routed straight to a repair crew, visible until it is resolved.
Report
The log is itself the compliance record, so the repair, its timeline, and the original exception feed directly into the regulatory report with nothing retyped.
What changes when flare monitoring runs on Kissflow
| Process | Before Kissflow | On Kissflow |
|---|---|---|
| Reading capture | Written down if someone remembers to check | Logged per stack, from the field or an integrated feed |
| Threshold checks | Compared against the permit limit occasionally | Checked the moment a reading is captured |
| Unlit pilot events | Noticed by whoever's nearby, not always logged | Flagged as an exception automatically |
| Repair routing | A verbal request with no tracked timeline | Routed as a tracked exception to closure |
| Regulatory reporting | Reconstructed from scattered logs | Built from a continuous exception record |
| Multi-stack visibility | One log per stack, no site-wide view | One dashboard across every flare stack |
Connects to your flare monitoring instrumentation or SCADA feed; that stays the source of truth for live readings
Kissflow doesn't replace flare monitoring instrumentation. It runs the threshold checking, exception flagging, and repair-to-reporting workflow on top of the readings that instrumentation produces.


Built for the exception, not just the reading
Exceptions flagged the moment they happen
An unlit pilot or an out-of-range reading becomes a tracked exception immediately, not at the next log review.
Repair tied to the exception
Every flagged reading routes to a repair action with a closure record, not a verbal request.
Regulatory reporting built in
The exception-to-repair history is the report, not a separate reconstruction exercise.
Live in weeks
Configure thresholds and repair routing in the visual builder, without an engineering project.
Governed from day one
Role-based access and a full audit log are built into every reading and exception.
One view across every stack
Exception and repair status roll up across every flare stack on one dashboard.

Get SupportCarbon Footprint & Energy Monitoring tracks flaring volume as one input into facility-level carbon and energy trending against a sustainability target. Flare Monitoring System is the component-level operational tool: pilot status, flow readings, and unlit or out-of-range events on a repair-and-resurvey clock.
Environmental Monitoring App is a general multi-parameter threshold and notification tool. Flare Monitoring System is scoped specifically to flare stack operation, with a repair workflow built around flare-specific exceptions like an unlit pilot.
No. The instrumentation stays the source of truth for live readings. This app runs the threshold checking, exception flagging, and repair-to-reporting workflow on top of it.
An unlit pilot, a flow reading outside its permitted range, or a visible emissions event, configurable to your permit conditions.
A flagged exception routes to the maintenance or operations team responsible, with the repair tracked to closure.
Yes, each stack has its own record, rolled up into one dashboard.
Configuration moves delivery from a multi-month program to a matter of weeks.
Kissflow is certified to SOC 1, SOC 2, SOC 3, and ISO/IEC 27001, with role-based access and a full audit log on every reading and exception.
