World Pipelines

World pipelines refer to the extensive network of pipelines used to transport oil, natural gas, and other liquids across countries and continents. These pipelines are crucial for delivering energy resources from extraction sites to refineries and consumers. They vary in size, capacity, and material, often buried underground to ensure safety and minimize environmental impact. Pipelines help stabilize energy supplies, reduce transportation costs, and decrease traffic congestion on roads. However, they can also raise environmental and political concerns, particularly regarding leaks, spills, and the impact on local communities and ecosystems.
