Otter Tail  (STU:OT4) Total Gas Pipeline Miles Explanation

A Gas Pipeline is a pipe used to transport gas from gas wells to the processing units and then to a distribution system. Natural gas is directly delivered to homes or businesses through a broad network of Gas Pipelines. The Gas Pipelines are not only used to transport the gas in the local areas but also across international borders, as they are very useful to the countries that produce gas for export to other countries.

Longer gas pipeline miles indicate a larger area/ more customers the company would cover, which might lead to a higher gas consumption and a higher revenue.

The pipelines have three different forms and each of them serves a different purpose within its network:
Pipelines with small diameters are used to transport the gas at low pressure from the wells to the processing units.
Interstate, intrastate and international transmission pipelines are used to transport the gas with high-pressure from the processing units to the areas they are required to be transported. When gas is transported through these long pipelines, it is required to be passed through pumping stations to maintain the high pressure.
Distribution pipelines are used to transport the gas through smaller pipes to the users.
