Abstract
Lines representing natural gas pipelines existing, under construction, and planned worldwide as of 2018. Data on pipeline types, capacities, dates of service, operators, and jurisdictions is included. Pipeline features and data are excluded for the contiguous United States; refer to the dataset "Energy Web Atlas natural gas pipelines (United States), 2018" for coverage of this area.
Purpose
For display and analysis of pipelines using GIS software.
