According to the US EIA there are about 14 new natural gas pipeline projects in the announced, applied, or approved phase of the FERC process. The total number of miles for these projects is about 2,500. Most of these indicate pipe ODs 24” and above. While the pipeline segment is suffering from lower production levels – at least on the crude oil side – and are in the aftermath of a dramatic capacity expansion, efforts to fix capacity issues that are driving gas flaring continues. States are continuing to tighten up on these regulations.
