Understanding Mercaptans – Their impact and removal
Mercaptans, also known as thiols, are a class of sulfur-containing organic compounds that play a significant yet troublesome role in the oil and gas industry. These compounds are naturally occurring impurities in crude oil, natural [...]
Natural Gas Forecasts: 2026–2030
Global and North American Perspectives Natural gas continues to play a pivotal role in the global energy mix, bridging the gap between traditional fossil fuels and renewable sources amid rising electricity demand from data centers, [...]
Oil and Gas Production in the Permian Basin: A Comprehensive Overview
The Permian Basin, spanning West Texas and southeastern New Mexico, stands as one of the most prolific hydrocarbon-producing regions in the world. Covering approximately 86,000 square miles, it has been a cornerstone of U.S. energy [...]
The Ideal Gas Velocity in Natural Gas Pipelines for Liquid H₂S Scavenger Injection via Atomizing Nozzles
Hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) is a naturally occurring, toxic, and corrosive gas commonly found in natural gas streams extracted from reservoirs. Its presence poses significant risks to pipeline integrity, equipment longevity, and human safety, as it [...]
Latest Developments in H2S Removal from Natural Gas – 2026
Natural gas is a critical energy source, but it often contains hydrogen sulfide (H₂S), a toxic and corrosive impurity. Removing H₂S—known as "sweetening"—is essential to meet pipeline specifications (typically <4 ppm), protect infrastructure, and comply [...]
Benefits and Drawbacks of Direct Injection of Liquid Scavengers into Gas Pipelines
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a naturally occurring gas often found in natural gas reservoirs, posing significant challenges to the oil and gas industry. This colorless, flammable compound is infamous for its rotten egg odor, but [...]
