I need to come up with fuel gas usage estimates for all my wells.

Is there a reference that I can use to come up with estimates for well sites that include:

Catadyne
Methanol Pump
Control Valves
Line Heater
Glycol Reboiler
Compressors
Pump jack engines
etc.

Catadyne these are rated in BTU/hr so you have the value

Methanol Pump 20 cubic feet/hp-hr

Control Valves 1.5 scfm

Line Heater these are rated in BTU/hr so you have the value

Glycol Reboiler these are rated in BTU/hr so you have the value or 3000 btu/gallon removed

Compressors 8 cubic feet/HP-hr

Pump jack engines 9 cubic feet-hp-hp
etc.
