Abstract
Hydrogen sulphide (H2S) is one of the most hazardous substances in oil and gas
production fields when it comes to the risks posed by its presence. H2S is a naturally
occurring gas found within oil, gas reservoirs, and sewage water. Chemically the
gas is extremely toxic, flammable, and corrosive to different materials. H2S can
strongly cause material cracking and environmental pollution and a reduction in oil
quality. Thus, prevention measures are very important to produce gas containing
even low levels of H2S. The prevention requires chemical treatment to remove H2S
or convert the gas to an acceptable compound. Therefore, a big challenge was faced
to develop a new technological method to manipulate H2S problems. This review
evaluates strategies for crude oil desulfurization by reviewing desulfurization
literature. In addition, the effects of hydrogen sulfide on metals and metal
protection will be outlined. Finally, some perspectives on the effects of H2S on
personnel health and safety will be discussed.
