“Regulators in Western Canada mandate the preparation of an H2S release rate before an application to drill a well can
be submitted.”
“Regulators in Western Canada mandate the preparation of an H2S release rate before an application to drill a well can
be submitted.”
Too many times research is done after the fact
1 Introduction – Guideline Changes
July 2012 H2S Release Rate Assessment and Audit Forms Page 1-1
• Maps no longer apply
• Determine the H2S release rate (RR) potential for all wells
“The industry is now required to determine the H2S release rate potential for all wells, regardless of the H2S concentration.
Consequently, the maps no longer apply.”

Regulators’ Perspective
Too hard to create rules to encompass all scenarios
Industry’s Perspective
The more subjectivity, the harder it is to comply

The EPZ includes residents or
areas with high public usage
The well is located within 5.0 km of an
urban density development
(>50 dwellings)
The well is a critical or special
sour well
Determine level of expertise and types of resources required

2.1 Maximum H2S Release Rate Determination
“The H2S RR for each potential zone that may contain H2S gas is determined by multiplying the maximum H2S content and AOF rate
as determined by the geological and engineering review of the available data. The paired data points need not be from the same
well. The sum of the RRs from each zone becomes the cumulative RR for the drilling, completion/servicing, and
suspended/producing RR, as applicable to the project.”

2.3.1 Release Rate Cases - Drilling Case
July 2012 H2S Release Rate Assessment and Audit Forms Page 2-3
“If multiple casing strings are cemented in place during a drilling operation, then separate RRs can be determined for each hole
section.”
“If multiple casing strings are cemented in place during a drilling operation, then separate RRs can be determined for each hole
section.”
• Casing points splits potential release rate in two
• Intermediate hole release rate
• Main hole (after uphole zones isolated)
• Higher of the two (or more) is to be applied as drilling RR
2.3.1 Release Rate Cases - Drilling Case
July 2012 H2S Release Rate Assessment and Audit Forms Page 2-3
“An assessment of shallow formations (above the top of the Mannville) is generally not necessary if deeper zones will contribute
to the H2S release rate of the well…”
“An assessment of shallow formations (above the top of the Mannville) is generally not necessary if deeper zones will contribute
to the H2S release rate of the well…”
• Should expect shallow zones to be sweet
• Shallow sour zones are suspect
2.3.1 Release Rate Cases - Drilling Case
July 2012 H2S Release Rate Assessment and Audit Forms Page 2-3
• Only if deeper zones to be penetrated are sour
• If shallow zone is sour, likely an erroneous or ‘discountable’ sample
• Deal with the test or discount the form and document
“…unless it is known that the shallower zones may significantly impact the H2S release rate.”
“…unless it is known that the shallower zones may significantly impact the H2S release rate.”

may be made to offset data from a stimulated zone…”
“During drilling operations, the formations are considered to be unstimulated. Therefore, flow adjustments to a skin value of zero
may be made to offset data from a stimulated zone…”
• Post stimulated flow rates are flagged
• Use more representative sample
• Apply formulas from Sec 5, apply adjustment in H2S Search
2.3.2 Release Rate Cases – Compl./Servicing Case
July 2012 H2S Release Rate Assessment and Audit Forms Page 2-3
“Most often, the primary target represents the highest H2S release rate potential. However, in some cases, a secondary zone may
represent the highest stimulated H2S release rate…”
“Most often, the primary target represents the highest H2S release rate potential. However, in some cases, a secondary zone may
represent the highest stimulated H2S release rate…”
• Reference formation with the higher H2S
• Exceptions to this are in the guidelines
2.3.2 Release Rate Cases – Compl./Servicing Case
July 2012 H2S Release Rate Assessment and Audit Forms Page 2-3
Ensure you:
• Research reference well to understand test conditions
• Reference other data sources for clarification
“Vertical flow analysis may be conducted to further adjust from sandface AOF to surface AOF. If completion operations are restricted
to “wellhead on” techniques…”
“Vertical flow analysis may be conducted to further adjust from sandface AOF to surface AOF. If completion operations are restricted

2.3.4 Release Rate Cases - Commingling
July 2012 H2S Release Rate Assessment and Audit Forms Page 2-5
• Tests spanning multiple formations:
• Potential formation misassignment

“…better understanding of the geological analogue allows the analyst to restrict data to more representative samples…”
“…better understanding of the geological analogue allows the analyst to restrict data to more representative samples…”
“…as the number of data points in a representative sample set increase, the confidence of the data quality also increases.”
“…as the number of data points in a representative sample set increase, the confidence of the data quality also increases.”
• 10 wells provided for each formation
• Proximal search often gives best geological representation
• Involve geology when unsure
3.1 Data Sampling - Search Area

• Doesn’t mean ALL samples within 3x3 townships
• Consider all present pools within 3x3 townships as potentially analogous
• Board Order System. http://ercb.ca/data-and-publications/
orders/board-order-system
“…3x3 twp study area…to define appropriate geological analogies from which representative H2S and AOF samples can be obtained.”

• Dependent on your area and available data
“minimum five representative analogous samples for H2S and AOF… However, search area may become so large that it extends beyond any geological correlation…less than five samples is warranted.”
“minimum five representative analogous samples for H2S and AOF… However, search area may become so large that it extends beyond any geological correlation…less than five samples is warranted.”
Should be sufficient

July 2012 H2S Release Rate Assessment and Audit Forms Page 3-6
“Data points are representative if they cannot be discounted for technical reasons. If samples that have a higher H2S concentration than the sample selected are discounted, then the applicant must support the decision with geological or engineering reasoning.”
