The Asia Pacific region plays a pivotal role in the global energy industry, supplying a significant share of the world's energy demands.
However, the region faces distinct challenges in managing production fields with high concentrations of impurities, including salt and moisture. Acid gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2), hydrogen sulphide (H2S), and mercaptans, as well as benign gases such as nitrogen and helium, and organometallic compounds that may be formed in the presence of heavy metals like mercury, are present in many energy reserves in the region. Effective management of these contaminants is a complex and integral aspect of the entire oil and gas production cycle, encompassing exploration, development, production, and abandonment.
