Volumetric flowrate of dry gas measured at separator or at processing plantSPE 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 volatile oil fluid modelFor MBO fluid @model the gas surface flowrate
