Dear Experts,

we are currently add a new natural gas pipeline size (2) inch to feed HP flare instead of LPG Supply before the flare-tip , I want to install Pressure reducing regulator to reduce pressure from 16 bar to 3.5 bar my question is :which type of reducing valve should use , seat orifice or outlet orifice and how to sizing the valve size where is the data as follows :
service : natural gas , line size : 2 inch , max flow 43.5 Nm/hr3 , density =13.74 kg/m3 , viscosity = 0.8328 , Max inlet pressure = 18 bar , oulet min pressure = 1.5 bar , inlet temp= 20 c , outlet temp = 12.5 c.

thanks
