The demand for natural gas has increased significantly due to the growth of the world economy and also due to its value as the transitional fuel for the future. Presently, CO₂ and H2S content in gas fields globally accounts for up to 90% and 15%, respectively. Several gas fields either remain unexplored or have not been monetized due to technological limitations and the high costs involved in their development. Limited availability of sub-surface and engineering data and complex reservoir characterization impose additional challenges while building a business case of these fields. These challenges are driving the need for the industry to explore new alternatives for more cost-effective and sustainable exploration and development of high CO₂, high contaminant fields.
