The exploitation of natural gas deposits also requires the transport of the extracted fluids through pipelines to their treatment facilities. Usually the extracted fluids contain, in addition to methane, ethane, liquid fractions of propane, butane, hexane and sometimes salt water associated with the deposit. Given that the delivery of natural gas for consumption must be carried out without water and oil liquids, the flow rates of the gas extraction wells are taken in two-phase mixing pipelines and transported to a single treatment facility. The article presents the impact of the diameter of the mixing pipes on the gas flow
