Title: Calculating A System Gas Balance

Abstract: I will define a system gas balance by comparing it to a common apothecary scale. On one side of the scale, as it were, would be all the gas taken into the system. We will refer to It as purchased gas. On the other side or at the end of the system is outgoing gas referred to as transported gas. Since the operation of a pipe line system requires compression, purging, gas processing (in most cases) and etc., we must endeavor to account for the use of this product from the system to balance our scale. At Columbia Gulf, we calculate these volumes and prepare a report each month entitled Monthly Measurement Report which shows the disposition or accounting for of all gas taken Into and used in the system. Any difference in these two figures is referred to as unaccounted for gas.
