At our facility, natural gas will be cut off and fuel oil will be used in all furnaces and boilers. Can we utilize LPG in pilot flare instead of natural gas without pilot modification?

LPG consists mainly of propane and butane and has a different molecular weight than natural gas which is mainly methane with a little bit of ethane. Both have different flow and heating value characteristics.
