RE: Inch dia / meter
Inch-meter (or inch-mile in the states) is the all-in cost of laying pipe (includes the welding above, but it also includes trenching, field wraping welds, buying the pipe, mobilization, ROW, engineering, surveying, and inspection). In the 10 mile job above, if the estimating parameter is $45/in-mile then the all in costs for budget would be $5.4 million.
As you might imagine, this number varies widely from company to company and is often very confidential. I use this number for budgetary purposes, NEVER for joint-interest authorization for expenditures.
