Embodiments of the present invention are generally related to a system and method to remove hydrogen sulfide from sour water and sour oil. In particular, hydrogen sulfide is removed from sour water and sour oil without the need for special chemicals, such as catalyst chemicals, scavenger chemicals, hydrocarbon sources, or a large scale facility. The system and method in the present invention is particularly useful in exploratory oil and gas fields, where large facilities to remove hydrogen sulfide may be inaccessible. The present invention addresses the need for safe and cost effective transport of the deadly neurotoxin. Particular embodiments involve a system and method that can be executed both on a small and large scale to sweeten sour water and sour oil.

1. A method for removing hydrogen sulfide from crude oil and water comprising: filling a first container with water;filling a second container with crude oil and water, wherein the crude oil comprises hydrogen sulfide;distributing air in a first stream from a device that can create airflow to the first container, using a first connection running from the device to the first container, wherein the terminal end of the first connection comprises at least one opening;collecting air in a vapor space located within the first container, the collected air comprising hydrogen sulfide;transferring the collected air from the vapor space through an enclosed connection to an air compartment;distributing air in a second stream from the device to the air using a second connection running from the device to the air compartment;mixing the second stream and the collected air to form an air mixture;removing the air mixture from the air compartment when the amount of hydrogen sulfide measured is below a desired amount;distributing water from the first container to the second container via a pumping means;measuring the amount of hydrogen sulfide in the crude oil within the second container;continuing to distribute water from the first container to the second container until the amount of hydrogen sulfide in the crude oil in the second container is below a desired amount;returning water from the second container to the first container;continuing to distribute air in the second stream from the device to the first container;continuing to transfer air from the vapor space from the air compartment; andcontinuing to measure the amount of hydrogen sulfide in the air mixture wherein the air mixture is removed when the amount of hydrogen sulfide measured is below a desired amount. 2. The method of claim 1 wherein the water is fresh water. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the removed air is released to the atmosphere. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the removed air mixture is flared. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein when the amount of hydrogen sulfide in the crude oil in the second storage device is below a desired amount, transferring the crude oil out of the second storage device. 6. The method of claim 5, wherein the crude oil is transferred to at least one of a vehicle, a rail car and a ship. 7. The method of claim 1, further comprising maintaining the pH of said water at 7.0 or below. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein the removed air is stored. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein the water distributed from the first container to the second container is distributed at an upper portion of the second container. 10. A method for removing hydrogen sulfide from an emulsion of water and crude oil, comprising: receiving, from a well production site, a well production stream comprising sour gas and sour crude oil;separating the well production stream into at least sour gas and an emulsion of sour water and sour oil, wherein the emulsion comprises hydrogen sulfide;treating the emulsion to remove at least a substantial portion of the hydrogen sulfide, the treating comprising:filling a first storage device with water;filling a second storage device with the emulsion;distributing air in a first stream from a device that can create airflow to the first container, using a first connection running from the device to the first container, wherein the terminal end of the first connection comprises at least one opening;collecting air in a vapor space located within the first container, the collected air comprising hydrogen sulfide;transferring the collected air from the vapor space through an enclosed connection to an air compartment;distributing air in a second stream from the device to the air compartment using a second connection running from the device that can create airflow to the air compartment;mixing the second stream and the collected air to form an air mixture;removing the air mixture from the air compartment when the amount of hydrogen sulfide measured is below a desired amount;distributing water from the first container to the second container via a pumping means; measuring the amount of hydrogen sulfide in the crude oil within the second container; continuing to distribute water from the first container to the second container until the amount of hydrogen sulfide in the crude oil in the second container is below a desired amount; returning water from the second container to the first container;continuing to distribute air in the second stream from the device to the first container; continuing to transfer air from the vapor space from the air compartment; and continuing to measure the amount of hydrogen sulfide in the air mixture wherein the air mixture is removed when the amount of hydrogen sulfide measured is below a desired amount. 11. The method of claim 10, wherein the water is fresh water. 12. The method of claim 10, further comprising maintaining the pH of said water at 7.0 or below. 13. The method of claim 10, wherein the removed air is released to the atmosphere. 14. The method of claim 10, wherein the removed air mixture is flared. 15. The method of claim 10, wherein the removed air mixture is stored. 16. The method of claim 10, wherein when the amount of hydrogen sulfide in the crude oil in said second storage device is below a desired amount, transferring the crude oil out of the second storage device. 17. The method of claim 16, wherein the crude oil is transferred to at least one of a vehicle, a rail car and a ship.
