H₂S Seawater Treatment — 30" MJTNG-1 Pipeline

Removing sulfide from the seawater used to dewater the 30-inch MJTNG-1 pipeline at the Marjan offshore field — 500 m³/hr, 40,000 m³ total.

Executive summary

A treatment system removing sulphides from seawater used to dewater the 30" MJTNG-1 pipeline. DAF, sulphide-scavenger dosing, and activated-carbon units capture H₂S and control odour, processing 40,000 m³ at 500 m³/hr.

FK & Partner Co. and Water Technology Company (W-Tech) installed a DAF unit, a sulfide-scavenger dosing system, and activated-carbon units to capture H₂S, treating 40,000 m³ at up to 500 m³/hr; IE-Consult led the design.

The challenge

Seawater used to dewater a large offshore trunk line carries sulfide that must be treated, and H₂S captured, before the water can be safely handled.

Site & process constraints
  • 30-inch MJTNG-1 trunk line dewatering
  • 500 m³/hr flow, 40,000 m³ total
  • Offshore field, H₂S safety
Engineering approach

A treatment train sequenced to the contaminants.

DAF Coagulation → Multi-Media Filtration → Sulfide Scavenger Dosing → Activated Carbon

DAF removes suspended solids, a multi-media filter polishes TSS, a sulfide-scavenger dosing system neutralises sulfide chemically, and activated carbon captures residual H₂S for odour and safety control.

Gas capture, not venting: activated carbon handles the H₂S safety risk directly.
