H2s and where it can hide.. A thought
H2s is hydrogen sulfide, it's a very dangerous gas that we work around on a constant.. But it's always in the pipes or vessels. We wear these monitors to protect us and if we are doing demo or removing a blind flange it's under fresh air.. We use all these controls and more to try to protect us but at the end of the day most new to old pipe you weld or heat up it realeases it.. Over 100 ppm you lose your sense of smell and its fatal if u don't get out of it.
These monitors go off at 10ppm mine went off while I was cutting this thermo weld for this spool piece that goes to an exchanger.. We will get into that later.
My point here is protect yourself if your in this line of work. 
Never would have thought the client or the company I work for think that it's ok to cut and weld this without the proper PPE.. Be safe out there

Thanks for post. Could more clear explain where from was it appear?? Looks like it is a  regular metalwork on open air. It's something surprising for me. But to be fair on my site sometimes we have false H2S alarms near the welding workshop as well.

Turnarounds
Job to job to job
All over the world
7 days a week 12 hours a day
In petrochemical refeniries, chemical plants, off shore oil rigs, power plants, coal burners, natty gas, solar, nuclear.

Its process piping, thats old. Proper procedures were not followed.

The spool peice was pulled from the system and was not pressure washed nor decontaimanted, steamed, or baked out. Then brough to the laydown yard, fab shop. To do repeairs on.

So there was left over process. Oil, gas, benzene, naptha, hydrofloric acid ect. Heated it up while welding/ cutting/fabricating. Created a cloud of h2s.

This type of work isnt just new to new fabrication. Nothing even close.
Nothing false about it. People get killed , mangaled, and posined, all the time in the turnaround side of the industry.
