How do I convert MCF's of Natural Gas to MMBTU's?

Question

I need to figure out how much MMBTU's of Natural gas I need. If I have 11,074 MCF of Natural Gas, how many MMBTU's is that? Please include the formula you used. Thanks

Answer 1

Natural gas has an energy density ranging between 800 and 1200 BTU per cubic feet.

1 Mcf is 1000 cubic feet of gas.
1 MMBTU is 1 million BTU.

So, if you have 11074 Mcf, you therefore have 11 million cubic feet of gas, each having an energy of about 1000 BTU.
In the end, this means you should have 11074 MMBTU, +/- 20% depending on the quality of the gas.

Answer 2

Mmbtu To Mcf

Answer 3

Take your MCF and multiply it by the BTU Factor. Of course, if you don't know what the BTU Factor is, this equation won't work.
Example: 50 mcf x 1.22 (btu factor) = 61 BTU. most BTU factors look like this 1.2201 on a statement.

Answer 5

On average, a cubic foot of natural gas gives off 1000 BTU, but this can vary between 500 and 1500. So each MCF will give off 1 MMBTU on average.

11,074 MCF = 11,074 MMBTU

Tricia, I don't agree with the hoi-polloi of the answers, but I'm sure they all have your best interests at heart. The oil machanic has some good thoughts, but I wish to impose on you another thought. In the insulation dept., you should insulate where possible and use at least dual-pane doors & windows where necesssary. To revamp your entire home is costly, but why not enjoy the best of both worlds. For example, in my home in Oregon, Its customary to use oil/diesel to heat the homes, so I took it a step further because oil is so easy to install, when I built I installed the new ducts to service the forced air/heat, and had a stand-alone oil burner stove installed in the corner with a fireplace mantle setup. The chimney goes up and for 2300 you have clean oil heat throughout the home. The forced air is used as a backup when the TO cold comes and to further this plan, I have a wood burning fireplace to give us a little effect now and then...all creating heat and for the cost of 125 monthly including ele all yr long. the nat'l gas is so high now, I changed the water htr to ele, which needs no venting and the range is a little of both...gas for the convience of cooking and ele for the ovens that are not used that much. The name of our oil burner is LAZER and is a Japanese made item and is sold in oil servicing stores/stations. note: for you, as you have presently installed Nat'l gas is to regulate you're usage of gas, insulate where necessary and install an oil burner stand-alone stove in your home with fan and self-igniter for about 3000 including mantel, hearth and labor and mix the fuels usage at the proper times of the years when the costs are at their lowest. For additional information, I've installed 1500 gallons of containment in my back yard and purchase oil when its at its lowest. The last time I bought red oil, it was 1.34 a gal and 2 wks ago barrol prices were down and I refilled for 2.11 a gallon. I use about 275 gallons throughout the year and with all the other utilities, I stay ahead of the game. Its like the stock mkt. Buy when its cheap and stock pile for the rainy day....it will go up again. Which side of the curve do you want to be on?
