At GATE Energy, we have the technical knowledge and experience to apply our own approach to souring prediction which can enable design and operational decisions to be made to mitigate the risks associated with such H2S production.

An empirical method for improving the predictability of NACE TM0177 Method A Tensile tests on modified 13Cr 110 ksi grade martensitic stainless steels based on an H2S/Chloride/pH function has previously been developed based on published data in order to address this uncertainty.

The amine selected, as well as the concentration of the solution used, will result in different selectivity of H2S over CO2, mole-to-mole acid gas loading, and degradation of the amine.

This GATEKEEPER will discuss the use of triazine as a liquid H2S scavenger.

GATE, LLC has been developing testing guidelines to validate flexible pipe materials for sour service use as flowlines and risers. Flexible pipe qualification requires the evaluation of each material separately in specific conditions, as well as detailed assessment of end-connector properties, and the performance of the flexible pipe as a whole.
