Why it matters
Transmission pipelines move gas from production areas and LNG terminals to power plants, industry and city networks; their capacity and routing shape regional supply security.
Gas pipelines in Qatar
The dataset tracks 45 gas pipelines in Qatar, including operating, planned and shelved projects.
How gas pipelines work
Gas transmission pipelines are large-diameter steel lines, typically 500–1,400 mm across, operated at high pressure. Compressor stations every 100–200 km keep the gas moving, and metering stations hand it over to distribution networks, power plants and industrial users.
Pipeline capacity is usually quoted in billion cubic metres per year (bcm/y). Cross-border pipelines are often central to energy diplomacy, because they lock producers and consumers into long-term relationships and determine which supply routes are available in a crisis.
