Under high temperature and high pressure conditions in the reservoir, sulfur is mainly dissolved in acidic gases such as H2S and CO2. As the development of the gas reservoir proceeds, sulfur will precipitate with changes in pressure and temperature, blocking the reservoir storage space, wellbore space and ground gathering and transportation system, posing serious challenges to the efficient development of high-sulfur gas reservoirs. The solubility of sulfur in gas is one of the important parameters for evaluating changes in gas well production capacity and sulfur deposition and blockage in pipelines. Obtaining accurate sulfur solubility data is of great significance to the safe, clean and efficient development of high-sulfur gas reservoirs.
