Volumetric flowrate of the  of dry gas measured at separator

Produced or injected flowrate of natural gas across the well-reservoir contact with the volumes measured at the sandface temperature and pressure conditions.

SPE Standard Conditions (STP).

Usually produced from subsurface gas phase and oil phase.

It usually requires additional processing before taking commercial form of the Natural Gas.

For MBO fluid @model the gas surface For volatile oil fluid model the gas sandface is related to surface flowrates of crude oil flowrate
