Abstract:This paper presents the results of a reservoir souring study in Hess' South Arne field (North Sea, Denmark). The field produces from a 115 o C chalk reservoir and utilizes sulphate rejection membrane (SRM) technology to generate low-sulphate seawater (LSSW) for water injection.In addition to achieving the primary objective of barium sulfate scaling control, eight years of historical data show that the injection of LSSW also significantly reduced the severity of reservoir souring to levels acceptable for contin… Show more
