Pipeline transport

A pipeline is a system of pipes for long-distance transportation of a liquid or gas, typically to a market area for consumption. Industry datasets indicate the length of the global trunk/transmission pipeline network is on the order of ~2. 19 million km by 2025, with North America accounting for ~44%.

The United States had 65%, Russia had 8%, and Canada had 3%, thus 76% of all pipeline were in these three countries.
The main attribute to pollution from pipelines is caused by corrosion and leakage.
