Does anyone of you have an Excel spreadsheet to calculate the volume of condensate, C2, C3, C4, and C5 from gas composition. I prefer to have the condensate and NGLs in barrels per day and the C1 and C2 in million standard cubic feet.

Your prompt response will be very highly appreciated.

Asifmian,
You don't need a spreadsheet - just a few minutes with a calculator and the back of an envelope.. From the gas composition, work out the kgmols/hr of each component. Multiply by mol wt to get the mass flow. Divide by liquid density of each component to get the volume flow, and convert to whatever volume units you prefer.
Of course the recovery of the NGLs from the gas won't be 100%. The actual recovery you can get will depend on a number of factors as well as the process design of the unit.
