Hey!!! As you want to know Natural Gas Calorific Value of GAIL (India) Limited so it is equal to 10000 Kcal/ SCM

General Conversions in the Gas Industry of this Company are:

1 SCM (Standard Cubic Meter)= 1 cubic metre @ 1 atmosphere pressure and 15.56 ° C

1 Cubic Metre = 35.31 Cubic feet


1 BCM(Billion Cubic Metre) / Year of gas (consumption or production) = 2.74 MMSCMD 365 Days a Year


1 TCF (Trillion Cubic Feet) of Gas Reserve = 3.88 MMSCMD 100% Recoverable for 20 years @ 365 days / Annum)

1 MMTPA of LNG =3.60 MMSCMD Mol.Weight of 18 @ 365 days/Annum)

1 MT of LNG =1314 SCM Mol.Weight of 18

Gross Calorific Value (GCV)= 10000 Kcal/ SCM

Net Calorific Value (NCV)= 90% of GCV

1 Million BTU (MMBTU)= 25.2 SCM @10000 Kcal/SCM; 1 MMBTU= 252,000 Kcal)

Specific Gravity of Gas= 0.62 Molecular Weight of Dry Air=28.964 gm/mole)

Density of Gas =0.76 Kg/SCM Mol.Weight of Gas 18 gm/mol

Gas required for 1 MW of Power generation =4541 SCM per Day

Station Heat Rate (SHR); ~ 1720 Kcal/Kwh-NCV (50% Thermal Efficiency); N.Gas GCV- @10000 Kcal/SCM

Power Generation from 1 MMSCMD Gas=220 MWH Station Heat Rate (SHR); ~ 1720 Kcal/Kwh-NCV (50% Thermal Efficiency); N.Gas GCV- @10000 Kcal/SCM
