Abstract: In the natural gas industry, H2S and total sulfur a re monitored to validate tariff limits or to ensure process specifications are maintained at receipt, sales, an d process control points throughout the system. Ty pical measurement ranges are 0 -20 ppm for H2S and 0 -100 ppm for total sulfur on transmission lines. Wel lhead treating, particularly shale gas development has cr eated the need to measure higher ranges of 1000 to 5000 ppm measurement at H2S treater skid inlet with a target treater outlet of 1 to 5 ppm. Downstream processing plant inlet applications require percentage measurement of 1 -10 % and sulfur plant feed or H2S re -injection ranges of 20 - 60%. Natural Gas gathering systems may blend off -spec gas with spec gas to maintain gas quality spec ificatio ns in the 0 -5% H2S range. Liquid rich shale gas presents a need to measure H2S in condensate or light oil streams. Natural gas streams used as feed stock in fertilize r production or any other sulfur sensitive catalyst bed dependent process requires sub ppm to as low as 10 ppb sulfur measurement. This paper summarizes principles of operation and points to consider when employing available technologies for various applications and concentrations encountered in the gas industry and related downstream facilitie s
