Planned projects account for 60% of the total additions while the rest are announced projects with total length of 11,647 km. Keystone XL Project is the longest upcoming pipeline in the region with 1,947 km.
The Middle East ranks third with 81 planned and announced oil and gas pipelines, which are expected to start operations by 2024 with a total length of 13,574 km.
Of these, 54 are planned oil and gas pipelines and the remaining are early-stage announced projects. Basra–Aqaba Oil is the longest upcoming pipeline in the region with a length of 1,680 km.
