Oil pipeline capacity measured in barrels of oil equivalent per day is cataloged by the Global Fossil Infrastructure Tracker. The data was compiled by the Country Climate and Development Report organization from GFIT in July 2021.
Use Cases
- Analyze total pipeline capacity by project status (e.g., operating, planned, retired).
- Map pipeline routes and terminal locations using the geospatial coordinates.
- Filter projects by capacity threshold to study large-scale infrastructure.
- Access project-specific wiki pages for detailed development histories.
Strengths
- Data includes all global oil and gas transmission pipelines over a pre-determined size threshold.
- Information is organized in both interactive map and table formats for analysis.
- Projects are linked to further information in wiki pages on GEM.wiki.
Limitations
- Data snapshot is from July 2021 and may not reflect current project statuses.
- Specific column names, row counts, and file formats are unknown.
- Limited to pipelines over a size threshold, excluding smaller infrastructure.
