North America is set to drive the global new-build crude oil trunk/transmission pipeline length additions, contributing around 51% of the global planned and announced crude oil pipeline length additions between 2019 and 2023, says GlobalData, a leading data, and analytics company.
The company’s report, ‘Global Crude Oil Pipelines Industry Outlook to 2023 – Capacity and Capital Expenditure Outlook with Details of All Operating and Planned Crude Oil Pipelines’, reveals that North America is likely to have a new-build crude oil pipeline length of 14,344km by 2023.

The Liberty Oil Project is the longest upcoming announced pipeline in the region with a length of 2,172.2km.”

In Asia, six new-build crude oil pipelines are expected to commence operations by 2023, of which two are planned pipelines, and four are early-stage announced projects. Gwadar–Kashgar is the longest upcoming announced crude oil pipeline in the region with a length of 2,414km.
