Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-001778

An abbreviation for hydrogen sulfide, a highly toxic and corrosive gas often found in oil and gas reservoirs. It is characterized by a rotten egg smell at low concentrations, but higher concentrations can quickly deaden the sense of smell and be fatal. Strict safety protocols and monitoring equipment are required when drilling in areas with potential H2S.
