Despite the construction opportunities being in flux, the expansion of the global pipeline continues. The main reason of being in flux is the market volatility, rising costs, and environmental issues. Currently, pipeline construction around the world is more than 2 million miles long in 120 countries. Out of this enormous pipeline length, around 65 percent is located in the United States. Russia on the second with significantly lesser in comparison i.e., only 8 percent whereas Canada hosts 3 percent of the total global pipeline length.
As of 2020, the world had around 1308 natural gas pipelines and 491 crude oil pipelines however, at that time, 87 natural gas pipelines and 18 crude oil pipelines were under construction. 219 natural gas pipelines and 53 crude oil pipelines were proposed for the construction.
