Abstract

A method of removing hydrogen sulfide from a subterranean geological formation includes mixing a cobalt-imidazolate material with an organic liquid containing one or more unsaturated oil to form a drilling fluid suspension with a pH of 10 or more. The cobalt-imidazolate material is a ZIF-67 and is present in an amount of 0.1 to 2.5 percent by weight of the drilling fluid suspension. The method further includes injecting the drilling fluid suspension in the subterranean geological formation and circulating the drilling fluid suspension in the subterranean geological formation and forming an oil-based mud to scavenge hydrogen sulfide from the subterranean geological formation.
