Souring Treatment with Nitrate in Fields from which Oil is Produced by Produced Water Reinjection

Gerrit Voordouw, Akhil Agrawal, H. S. Park, Lisa M. Gieg et autres

Abstract Nitrate can control souring in fields with high bottom hole temperature (BHT) and where sulfide is produced in the near-injection-wellbore-region (NIWR). The objective of the treatment is to lower the sulfide concentration in produced water and oil, reducing corrosion risk in …

Troubleshooting Nitrate Field Injections for Control of Reservoir Souring

Tom R. Jack, Alexander Asaturovich Grigor'yan, Adewale J. Lambo, Gerrit Voordouw et autres

Abstract Nitrate addition to injection water has been used to control the development of reservoir souring through microbial production of hydrogen sulfide particularly in seawater floods offshore. Current interest is in the application of this technology to produced water recycle injection (PWRI) …
