Line Pressure Drop Calculations

This document contains line sizing calculations for gas pipelines of various sizes (2"-12") for an offshore platform project. It includes parameters like operating pressure, temperature, flow rate, pipe material properties, and calculations of pipe internal diameter, flow area, Reynolds number, friction factor, velocity, and pressure drop. The correlations and methodology used are from API standard 14E and account for the critical flow regime where applicable.
