A pipeline of growth for midstream

Pipelines boom, esp. in the previously quiet Northeast

There's been a marked increase in the number of natural gas pipelines expected to be in service in the next several years. President Trump's policies explain some of this. But the commercial side is also enabling the boom. Jean Ann Salisbury addresses the various drivers and how these new pipelines could mean several hundred basis points of additional growth for some midstream companies. Interestingly, much of this development is taking place in the Northeast and increased access to gas could ultimately mean lower utility bills for commercial and residential customers. Jean Ann discusses how LNG will also be a key end market for this gas, the risk of an LNG glut further out and what this could all mean for the price of the commodity.
