This paper unpacks the new non-triazine H2S scavenger technology for natural gas applications using contact/bubble tower treatment. Described is the use of 3 3'-methylenebis 5-methyloxazolidine (stabicor® S100), known industrially as MBO, in contact tower simulation and its comparison with MEA Triazine. Laboratory and field data and a case study is presented.

In EIR’s report, relevant fundamental drivers of oil and gas are discussed, of which include resurgent Chinese oil demand, Permian supply concerns, inflationary impacts on oil field services and general global economic uncertainty.
