Million standard cubic feet per day is a unit of measurement for liquids and gases that is predominantly used in the United States. It is frequently abbreviated MMSCFD, where "MM" means million. MMSCFD is commonly used as a measure of natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), compressed natural gas (CNG) and other gases that extracted, processed or transported in high quantities.
A related measure is Mega standard cubic metres per day (MSm3/d), which equals to 10−3 MMSm3/d used in many countries outside the United States. One MMSCFD equals 1180 Sm3/h.
When converting to mass flowrate, the density of the gas should be used at Standard temperature and pressure.

“I get so tired listening to one million dollars here, one million dollars there, it’s so petty.”
—Imelda Marcos (b. 1929)
“Society’s double behavioral standard for women and for men is, in fact, a more effective deterrent than economic discrimination because it is more insidious, less tangible. Economic disadvantages involve ascertainable amounts, but the very nature of societal value judgments makes them harder to define, their effects harder to relate.”
—Anne Tucker (b. 1945)
“One of the great natural phenomena is the way in which a tube of toothpaste suddenly empties itself when it hears that you are planning a trip, so that when you come to pack it is just a twisted shell of its former self, with not even a cubic millimeter left to be squeezed out.”
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
“Whether our feet are compressed in iron shoes, our faces hidden with veils and masks; whether yoked with cows to draw the plow through its furrows, or classed with idiots, lunatics and criminals in the laws and constitutions of the State, the principle is the same; for the humiliations of the spirit are as real as the visible badges of servitude.”
—Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)
“I am always most religious upon a sunshiny day ...”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
