In 2022, 897 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d) of interstate natural gas pipeline capacity was added collectively from five projects, according to our latest State-to-State Capacity Tracker, which contains information on the capacity of natural gas pipelines that cross state and international borders. The interstate natural gas pipeline capacity added in 2022 is the lowest since 1995, the earliest year for which data are available.

Interstate capacity additions were low in 2022 because of a greater focus on intrastate capacity (which does not cross state borders and so are not captured in our State-to-State Capacity Tracker) and lower overall capital expenditures by oil and natural gas companies. Projects that reconfigure pipeline flows to accommodate growing Appalachian natural gas production, which drove interstate pipeline capacity additions for many years, are mostly completed. Most of the natural gas production growth since about 2017 has come from the Permian and Haynesville regions. These two regions are located very close to liquefied natural gas (LNG) export terminals along the Gulf Coast. In Texas and Louisiana, intrastate projects have increased takeaway capacity and connected natural gas production to LNG export terminals instead of longer interstate pipeline projects that cross state lines.

Building large-scale, commercial natural gas pipelines that cross state boundaries involves a number of contractual, engineering, regulatory, and financial requirements. These requirements may involve more coordination and can take longer to complete compared with intrastate pipeline projects.

In 2022, five projects increased interstate capacity. The projects focused primarily on upgrading compressor stations, with only one project building a relatively small amount of new pipe:
