Gas - Line Sizing

This document contains input data for calculating pressure drop and gas volume in a natural gas pipeline. It includes upstream and downstream pressure and temperature, gas properties, pipe dimensions and material, flow rates, and pipe length and fittings. The total calculated pressure drop along the 120m pipe is 1.25 bar, resulting in a downstream pressure of 80.39 bar. The volume of gas in the 6" diameter pipe at operating conditions is 0.132 m3, equivalent to 16.492 m3 at standard conditions or 1200.153 MMSCF.
