A method of reducing the amount of sulfhydryl compounds from sour hydrocarbon fluids is described. In the method, an aldehyde-releasing compound, which is high temperature stable and is highly water-soluble, is introduced to a hydrocarbon fluid stream as a scavenger for sulfhydryl compounds. The aldehyde-releasing compound is allowed to mix with the hydrocarbon fluid stream and the aldehyde-releasing compound is allowed to react with the sulfhydryl compounds present in the hydrocarbon fluid stream, thereby reducing the presence sulfhydryl compound in the hydrocarbon fluid stream.

1. A method for reducing the amount of sulfhydryl compounds from an oil and gas production well or injection well, said method comprising (i) providing a high temperature stable, highly water soluble aldehyde-releasing compound comprising hydantoins; and(ii) adding an effective amount of the aldehyde-releasing compound to the production well or the injection well at a position downhole and below ground surface, the aldehyde-releasing compound being added to a hydrocarbon fluid stream downhole and below ground during production of oil or gas from the production well or injection well. 2. The method according to claim 1, wherein the downhole addition, below ground surface, is achieved using a capillary string, umbilical cord, a perforation in the annulus of a production pipe, addition at the backside of the production or injection well. 3. The method according to claim 1, wherein the hydantoin comprises a hydroxymethyl hydantoin, a bis(hydroxymethyl)hydantoin or a mixture thereof. 4. The method according to claim 3, wherein the hydroxymethylhydantion is selected from the group consisting of 1-hydroxymethyl-5,5-dimethylhydantoin, 3-hydroxymethyl-5,5-dimethylhydantoin, and mixtures thereof; and the bis(hydroxymethyl)hydantoin is 1,3 -bis(hydroxymethyl)-5 ,5 -dimethylhydantoin. 5. The method according to claim 1, wherein the sulfhydryl compound present in the hydrocarbon fluid comprises hydrogen sulfide. 6. The method according to claim 1, wherein the aldehyde-releasing compound is continuously fed, below ground surface, to the production well or injection well. 7. The method according to claim 1, wherein the aldehyde-releasing compound is fed, below ground surface, to the production well or injection well in a batchwise manner. 8. The method according to claim 1, wherein the aldehyde-releasing compound is added in amount of at least 0.3 moles of the aldehyde-releasing compound per mole of the sulfhydryl present in the hydrocarbon fluid stream to be treated. 9. The method according to claim 8, wherein the aldehyde-releasing compound is added in amount between about 1 to about 10 moles of the aldehyde-releasing compound per mole of the sulfhydryl present in the hydrocarbon fluid stream to be treated. 10. The method according to claim 1, wherein the aldehyde-releasing compound is stable at a temperature of 80° C. for a period of at least 6 hours.
