Non-members can purchase an annual digital subscription for the FPS (English/Imperial) or SI (Metric) versions through the GPA Midstream Association Store .
The book covers the mechanical design of major equipment. Whether you need to calculate the wall thickness of a separator, size a relief valve, or determine the hydraulic horsepower of a pump, the step-by-step calculation examples provided are invaluable. It often references API standards but simplifies them into actionable engineering procedures.
The Engineering Data Book is a technical manual that consolidates engineering design, operating procedures, and thermodynamic data for the natural gas processing industry. First published in 1935 (originally by the Natural Gasoline Association of America), this book has evolved through 14 editions (as of 2025) into a 1,000+ page powerhouse. Non-members can purchase an annual digital subscription for
The GPSA publishes the Engineering Data Book in two distinct versions to accommodate global engineering standards:
Contains extensive data on properties of hydrocarbons, water, and common treating agents. It often references API standards but simplifies them
Used globally, utilizing units like Kilopascals (kPa), Celsius, Cubic Meters ( ), and Joules.
The Data Book serves as a comprehensive reference guide for process engineers, providing standardized data, design guidelines, and best practices. It is particularly vital for: The GPSA publishes the Engineering Data Book in
With over 1,000 pages of dense technical data, locating a specific fugacity coefficient or valve sizing equation manually takes time. A PDF allows for instant keyword searches ( Ctrl + F ), reducing research time to seconds. Portability for Field Operations
For engineers in the oil and gas sector, precision is non-negotiable. Designing, operating, and maintaining midstream gas processing plants requires accurate calculations, reliable thermodynamic data, and proven engineering standards. For over seven decades, the definitive resource for this critical information has been the .
