Sour Gas

Sour Gas (H2S) is highly toxic and can cause serious injury and death at relatively low concentrations. The characteristic odour can be detected by human beings at very low concentrations. However, at higher concentrations the odour can no longer be detected by human beings and the inability of human beings to detect its presence is a major risk factor.  

Syntillica can provide expertise in Sour Gas studies to understand the source of souring in a reservoir and to adopt field development strategies (e.g. sulphate removal in injection waters) to mitigate its impact.
