Abstract: The need for pressure regulation of high pressure gas first became necessary with the transportation of gas from distant producing fields. The gas had to be compressed many fold to give it the energy to travel the many miles to its final destination. The process of compressing gas and the dissipation of energy through pipelines in a large number of transmission lines is repeated many times before the gas had reached its terminal point. Pressures upwards of 1000 pounds per square inch are not uncommon in this transporting process. Here the need exists to reduce these pressures at points throughout the transmission network for distribution to gas utilities and consumers. It is these applications of regulators we would classify as high pressure.
