In 2023, the length of gas transmission pipelines in the US was approximately 301.60 thousand lane miles. The forecast indicates a marginal annual increase, reaching 301.63 thousand lane miles by 2028. The year-on-year growth rate from 2023 to 2028 is nearly stagnant, signifying a plateaued trend in pipeline expansion. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this period is negligible, depicting stability rather than growth in infrastructure development.

Future trends to watch:

Investment in renewable energy sources may impact future demand for gas pipelines.
Regulatory changes around fossil fuels could alter expansion projections.
Technological advancements in alternative fuel sources may drive infrastructure shifts.
