Oklahoma’s oil & gas landscape
Oklahoma sits at the heart of the U.S. mid-continent, with active oil and gas production spread across several major basins and plays. The headline play is the Anadarko Basin in central and western Oklahoma, where the SCOOP (South Central Oklahoma Oil Province) and STACK (Sooner Trend Anadarko Canadian Kingfisher) developments stack multiple producing zones, the Woodford, Meramec, Osage, and Oswego, in vertically separated targets. Production is broadly liquids-rich, with crude, condensate, and NGLs flowing alongside the natural gas.
Oklahoma is not just the Anadarko, though. The Arkoma Basin in the southeastern part of the state delivers dry gas, the Cherokee Platform and Mississippian Lime continue to produce in the north, and the Hugoton play extends into the panhandle.
Hero Process Solutions is built into this landscape. Our corporate headquarters, engineering team, and fabrication shop are in Kellyville, Oklahoma (Creek County), about thirty miles southwest of Tulsa. Every Hero flare, combustor, vapor recovery unit, or separator built for an Oklahoma operator is engineered, welded, tested, and shipped from in-state.

Oklahoma flaring & emissions challenges
Liquids-rich gas streams from SCOOP and STACK
Wells in the Anadarko Basin produce gas mixed with crude, condensate, and NGLs. Proper 3-phase separation and liquid knockout upstream of the flare or combustor protects the burner, supports clean combustion, and keeps liquids out of the flare header. Hero builds separators, knockouts, and combustion equipment as a matched system.
Tank-battery and storage vapor emissions
Crude and produced-water tanks vent VOCs as they fill and as pressure cycles. Vapor recovery units capture those vapors for sale, fuel, or reinjection, while enclosed vapor combustors handle volumes that cannot be captured economically, with a concealed flame that limits radiant heat and noise near the pad.
Multi-stack production with variable gas conditions
Operators developing several pay zones from a single pad see real swings in flow, pressure, and composition over time. Equipment sized only for first-year production can fall short later. Hero engineers size systems for the full production curve and offers rentals to bridge surges during completions or capacity gaps.
Smokeless combustion near pads and infrastructure
Regulators, neighbors, and operations teams expect clean, smokeless burns. Air-assist and sonic flare tips promote complete combustion, and enclosed combustors contain the flame to reduce smoke, light, and heat footprint as pads sit closer to roads, neighbors, and other infrastructure.
Preventing waste under Oklahoma’s conservation framework
Oklahoma’s regulatory posture is built on preventing waste of oil and gas. Flaring and venting are subject to oversight, and capture, reinjection, or high-efficiency combustion are generally preferred. Hero’s equipment lineup gives operators a compliant path regardless of which approach fits the site.
Oklahoma emissions compliance & how Hero helps
General guidance, not legal advice. Regulations change and specific requirements depend on the site, the operator’s permits, and the latest OCC or EPA actions. Confirm current requirements with your regulator. Hero’s role is to supply equipment that helps you meet whichever standard applies.
Oklahoma Corporation Commission
The OCC, through its Oil & Gas Conservation Division, regulates drilling, production, and the waste of oil and gas in the state. The framework emphasizes preventing waste of natural gas, which generally means flaring and venting must be authorized, time-limited, and minimized in favor of capture, reinjection, or high-efficiency combustion. Hero supplies vapor recovery units, EPA-listed enclosed combustors, and properly engineered flares that give operators a defensible, OCC-aware compliance path.
Federal emissions standards
Federal New Source Performance Standards and Emissions Guidelines under 40 CFR 60 Subpart OOOOb and OOOOc set methane and VOC requirements for new, modified, and existing sources across the oil and natural gas sector. The direction of travel is away from routine flaring and toward capture and high-efficiency destruction. Hero’s combustion and vapor recovery equipment supports producers in Oklahoma working toward these standards.

Oklahoma flare & combustion FAQs
Is Hero Process Solutions an Oklahoma company?
Yes. Hero Process Solutions is headquartered in Oklahoma, with our corporate office, combustion-engineering team, and fabrication shop located at 14842 North Maple Drive in Kellyville (Creek County), about thirty miles southwest of Tulsa. Manufacturing and engineering for Oklahoma operators happen in state, which shortens lead times on stock units and gives custom builds direct access to our engineers.
What flare or combustion equipment is best for SCOOP and STACK production?
SCOOP and STACK wells produce liquids-rich gas, so the right setup usually starts with proper 3-phase separation and liquid knockout upstream of the combustion equipment. From there, vapor recovery units capture tank-battery vapors, enclosed vapor combustors and air-assist or sonic flares handle gas that has to be destroyed, and emergency utility flares cover completions and upsets. Hero sizes the matched system for your specific gas conditions.
Does Hero serve operators outside the Anadarko Basin?
Yes. Our Oklahoma-based team supports operators across the state, including the Anadarko Basin (SCOOP, STACK, MERGE), the Arkoma Basin in the southeast, the Cherokee Platform and Mississippian Lime in the north, and the Hugoton play in the panhandle. The same combustion engineering and fabrication capabilities apply across plays; the equipment mix is tuned to your site’s gas profile and regulatory requirements.
How does Hero help operators stay compliant with Oklahoma Corporation Commission rules?
The OCC’s Oil & Gas Conservation Division emphasizes preventing waste of natural gas, which generally means minimizing flaring and venting in favor of capture, reinjection, or high-efficiency destruction. Hero supplies vapor recovery units, EPA-listed enclosed combustors, and properly engineered flares that give operators a defensible compliance path, plus the field support to keep equipment running.
Can Hero handle liquids-rich gas streams from STACK and SCOOP wells?
Yes. Liquids-rich service is core to how we engineer combustion systems. Hero designs and builds 3-phase separators and liquid knockout systems to remove liquids upstream of the flare or combustor, then matches them with appropriately sized flares, vapor combustors, and vapor recovery units. The package is delivered as one integrated system, not disconnected components.
Does Hero offer rental flares and combustion equipment in Oklahoma?
Yes. Hero maintains a rental fleet of flares and combustion equipment that can be deployed across Oklahoma during completions, turnarounds, capacity gaps, or emergencies. Standard units ship from stock; our Oklahoma team handles delivery, installation, and commissioning. Contact our Kellyville office at (918) 941-2166 to confirm fleet availability for your project.
How fast can Hero deliver and commission equipment in Oklahoma?
Lead times depend on the equipment and gas conditions, but being headquartered in state typically shortens both build and delivery windows for Oklahoma operators. Standard systems ship from stock for the fastest deployment; custom systems are engineered to your specs in Kellyville, then field-commissioned by our Oklahoma team. Call (918) 941-2166 for current lead-time estimates.
Does Hero help with EPA OOOOb compliance in Oklahoma?
Yes. Hero’s flares, enclosed combustors, and vapor recovery equipment are built to support compliance with EPA 40 CFR 60 Subpart OOOOb and OOOOc methane and VOC standards, which steer operators away from routine flaring toward capture and high-efficiency combustion. See our OOOOb compliance resources and contact our team to match equipment to your site’s requirements.
