Is there a method for back calculating the correct pH of a produced water sample that is taken from a vessel at pressure (80 bar(g)) which contains water hydrocarbon gas but also CO2 and H2S, whenever we take the sample the gasses come out of solution and presumably drive the pH up.

Perhaps if you knew how much gas was evolved you might be able to do it.
Most Common Suggestions I Make on the Forums.
1. Start by writing a balanced chemical equation.
2. Don't confuse thermodynamic stability with chemical reactivity.
3. Forum Supports LaTex
