Need help sizing a suction header for a NG Plant.

Scenario:
Size a suction header for six compressors (each move about 10 MMCFD) Suction header needs to be at least 220ft in length. Inlet pressure is about 100psi, Tavg = 70F, SG = .65.

Thanks for any help.

Need to look at inlet point to get the Perfect header, otherwise I size the header at about 1% or 1 psi/100ft and round down.
