Gas Flowline volume

I can't find a gas flowline volume calculation anywhere. Does anyone have a quick and dirty method. I have flow rate 10mmcfd, pressure 1000 psi, standard temp, pipe ID 4", and length (9088 ft).
I want to know how much gas is in this flowline while flowing. How much when I shut it in (on both ends)?

I will use this volume to estimate how much petroleum condensate will drop out upon shut-in of the system.

The well currently produces 80 bpd of condensate(60 api) when flowing at a 10MMCF/D rate.

Anyone?

It really isn't a good idea to double post. See the answer you got at thread378-109884

Thanks but I wasn't sure a Mechanical Engineer would be looking under the Petroleum section of the forum.
 
I think there at least as many of us here as there are PetEng.
