Gas Flowline volume

Gas Flowline volume

Gas Flowline volume

(OP)
I can't find a gas flowline volume calculation anywhere.  Does anyone have a quick and dirty method.  I have flow rate 10mmcfd, pressure 1000 psi, standard temp, pipe ID 4", and length (9088 ft).
I want to know how much gas is in this flowline while flowing.  How much when I shut it in (on both ends)?

I will use this volume to estimate how much petroleum condensate will drop out upon shut-in of the system.

The well currently produces 80 bpd of condensate(60 api)  when flowing at a 10MMCF/D rate.

Anyone?

It really isn't a good idea to double post.  See the answer you got at Thread378-109884

Thanks but I wasn't sure a Mechanical Engineer would be looking under the Petroleum section of the forum.

I think there at least as many of us here as there are PetEng.
