Abstract Sour gas reservoirs are vital sources for natural gas production. Sulphur deposition in the reservoir reduces a considerable amount of gas production due to permeability reduction. Consequently, well health monitoring and early prediction of Sulphur deposition are crucial for effective gas production from a sour gas reservoir. Dynamic gas material balance analysis is a useful technique in calculating gas initially in place utilizing the flowing wellhead or bottom hole pressures and rates during the well's lifetime. The approach did not apply to monitor a producing gas's health well and detect Sulphur deposition. This work aims to (i) modify dynamic gas material balance equation by adding the Sulphur deposition term, (ii) build a model to predict and validate the issue utilizing the modified equation. A unique form of the flowing material balance is developed by including Sulphur residue term. The curve fitting tool and modified flowing gas material balance are applied to predict well-expected behaviour. The variation between expected and actual performance indicates the health issue of a well. Initial, individual components of the model are tested. Then the model is validated with the known values. The workflow is applied to active gas field and correctly detected the health issue. The novel workflow can accurately predict Sulphur evidence. Besides,the workflow can notify the production engineers to take corrective measures about the subject. Keywords: Sulfur deposition, Dynamic gas material balance analysis, Workflow

For natural gas well with high content of CO2 and H2S, very serious corrosion in the gas well string is an important factor of gas production system life. In order to ensure the long-term development of gas wells, this paper mainly study the corrosion-resistant material selection of tubing and casing in sour gas reservoirs under coexistence of H2S and CO2 and proposes the optimization idea and technique of tubing and casing material selection. By taking Puguang gas field as an example, this paper optimizes the material selection of production casing for Puguang gas field. By testing, the optimal materials of gas well string in Puguang gas field have good performance of erosion resistance

Deposition of solid elemental sulfur may arouse severe damage to the formation and significantly affect the gas deliverability in sour gas reservoirs. As one main measure of stimulation, hydraulic fracturing always ceases to work due to the sulfur deposition in the fractures. To have a better understanding of the failure of fracture conductivity caused by sulfur deposition and learn the degree of fracture conductivity improved by acidification, an experimental was implemented and studied. In this paper, both the sulfur powder and an artificial fractured core were employed to simulate the process of sulfur deposition in the fractures. A further step was made to inject some hydrochloric acid into the blocked fracture caused by sulfur powder. The result showed that the fracture conductivity could be greatly reduced by the sulfur deposition. The fracture conductivity can be decreased by 17%~47% due to sulfur deposition. However, to some degree, acid-fracturing can improve the conductivity of fracture by eroding the surface of fracture. This means the failure of fracture blocked by sulfur deposition can be improved by acidification.
