The easiest sulphur process is no sulphur process

no sulphur pileFacility operators: What's the easiest way to meet sulphur recovery efficiency restrictions? Send your acid gas to someone else.

Without AppIntel, how would you check out the novel ways other operators are stick handling around the regulations? The only way you can find these is by using AppIntel.

The operator of one new sour gas plant has decided to pipeline his acid gas to an existing sulphur processing facility. That saves him from dealing with sulphur recovery operations and all its regulations at his new plant. It also allows the receiving sulphur plant to increase their throughput and improve their operational stability.

You can get the rest of his novel approach to meeting regulations by reading his application. Help yourself to the pertinent application pages through our self-serve, secure check out.

Where can you use this?

Do you have a new sour field that needs a gas plant? Don't want the intense public consultation that comes with a new sulphur plant? (Remember the Husky/Shell Caroline hearings?)

Do you have a sulphur plant that has reached its minimum turn-down ratio? It's tough to relocate it, but it may be possible to bring the acid gas to you.

Check out the results

Textbooks and gee-whiz articles like this one may help you understand a bit about plant optimization. But if you really want to understand the details, you must read others' application documents. For example, how did he get around the onerous requirements of pipelining acid gas?

In their applications, operators report all sorts of novel processing approaches. Each application is ground truthed to actual UWIs. Each application is adjudicated by a picky regulator.

Sulphur, sulfur, sulfer

What's the correct way to spell this yellow element's name?

The proper British spelling is sulphur. However, American usage is increasingly sulfur. Sulfer is the german spelling. Take your pick.

Of course, you could avoid the spelling problem altogether and call it brimstone (german for burning stone). Unfortunately few people would understand your references to a brimstone plant or a brimstone block.
