Abstract:
The disclosure describes a method to indirectly measure the amount of elemental sulfur or amorphous dithiazine in a reservoir sample by converting them to H2S gas. The H2S is captured via caustic cyanide solution and quantified by analytical methods and correspond to the concentration of elemental sulfur or amorphous dithiazine. The method has particular applicability to determine where best to drill and avoid locations of high sulfur.
