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.
Famous quotes containing the words million, standard, cubic, feet and/or day:
“I should consider it a greater success to interest one wise and earnest soul, than a million unwise and frivolous.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“I don’t have any problem with a reporter or a news person who says the President is uninformed on this issue or that issue. I don’t think any of us would challenge that. I do have a problem with the singular focus on this, as if that’s the only standard by which we ought to judge a president. What we learned in the last administration was how little having an encyclopedic grasp of all the facts has to do with governing.”
—David R. Gergen (b. 1942)
“Mining today is an affair of mathematics, of finance, of the latest in engineering skill. Cautious men behind polished desks in San Francisco figure out in advance the amount of metal to a cubic yard, the number of yards washed a day, the cost of each operation. They have no need of grubstakes.”
—Merle Colby, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“... whilst you are proclaiming peace and good will to men, Emancipating all Nations, you insist upon retaining absolute power over wives. But you must remember that Arbitrary power is like most other things which are very hard, very liable to be broken—and notwithstanding all your wise Laws and Maxims we have it in our power not only to free ourselves but to subdue our Masters, and without violence throw both your natural and legal authority at our feet ...”
—Abigail Adams (1744–1818)
“every day they die
Among us, those who were doing us some good,
And knew it was never enough but
Hoped to improve a little by living.”
—W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
