Abstract The general petroleum company produces about 40,000 barrels of crude oil daily from Ras-Gharib concession, with this quantity of crude oil there are 22 MMSCFD of associated gases. A part of this gas flow, which is approximately 7MMSFCD, is injected directly to injection wells to maintain the reservoir pressure. The rest, i.e. 15 MMSCFD of these associated gases, is transmitted directly to the flare from Elhamd, Gharib and fanar fields. The current research work proposes a solution to reuse the raw associated gases produced in ras-gharib into a valuable material and consequently addressing the above environmental/societal implications. This study performs economic and environmental evaluations accounting for the profitability, revenues and economics of treating these raw associated gases in a sweetening unit to produce sweet gas and hydrogen sulfide that minimize carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide emission |
