Geoscience FAQ
Where can I find maps or information on the location of natural gas and oil pipelines?
Information preserved from American Geosciences Institute.
The EIA publishes a customizable map with a range of energy-related information, including the locations of natural gas and petroleum (hazardous liquids) pipelines in the United States. The EIA also makes data on natural gas pipelines available with information about pipelines, capacities, flows and network design, transportation corridors, and other relevant information for pipelines in the continental U.S. - maps of these pipelines are also available through the U.S. Department of Transportation. See below for interactive maps showing pipelines in the United States.
