The U.S. natural gas pipeline system is simultaneously one of America's most impressive and despised feats of engineering.
The Energy Information Administration says there are about 3 million miles of mainline and other pipelines in the U.S. that connect producers to consumers.
In 2017, the EIA says the network moved a whopping 25 trillion cubic feet of natural gas to 75 million customers.
The American natural gas pipeline network is pretty remarkable.
But it's also perhaps the most widely contested infrastructure system in the nation.
Urgent Announcement
When [this announcement]( is made on March 29th, 2019...
You have the chance to walk away a multimillionaire.
But insiders are already making moves...
And the window to [grab your share of this hundred-billion-dollar pie](...
Could close at any time.

I mean, sure, there are millions of people complaining about the road and highway systems. I'm positive there's some guy complaining about potholes in the roads right now. But potholes have never pushed people this far:
Every day there is a new news story about a natural gas protest somewhere. I'd bet dollars to doughnuts there will be a local TV station somewhere tonight talking about the debate over a local pipeline installation. But here's what's curious...
Natural gas pipelines have been around for decades. According to the EIA, half of the existing natural gas pipeline network was installed in the 1950s and 1960s.
Most of these protesters grew up with natural gas pipelines. So why are people only recently starting to protest them with such fervor?
Well, pipeline protests like those we see today have really been going on for decades. But there has been an increase in the number of these types of protests. And there's a simple reason for that: More pipelines are being built.
Starting in 2000, demand for natural gas began to increase significantly — and prices followed. That incentivized producers to increase output and explore for new resources.
Additionally, advancements in drilling and production techniques led to fracking, which also contributed to increasing natural gas output.
So, in short, natural gas demand and prices were healthy, output was increasing, and producers needed a way to get their gas to consumers.
The answer was to build more pipelines.
More pipelines being built = more protests over them.
The thing about these protests, though... they're rarely successful.
It's an understatement to say natural gas has become a vital component of society. And it's becoming more and more important every day.
The EIA estimates U.S. natural gas demand to continue increasing for the next few decades. It projects a near 40% increase in demand between 2017 and 2050.

Meanwhile, production is set to increase even more. The EIA forecasts that U.S. natural gas production will continue to increase nearly 60% over the same time.
All this means more pipelines are going to be needed to transport all this fuel.
It also means we'll probably continue to see more natural gas pipeline protests.
And both of these things mean big gains for energy infrastructure investors.

The hunt is finally over.
I’ve delivered 429%, 380%, even 1,835% returns on legal marijuana. But the real money won’t roll in until pot cracks the $978 billion pharmaceutical industry.
For months, I’ve been looking for the “category killer” in this rapidly emerging sector — the stock that would become the Bayer, Pfizer, or Merck of marijuana.
Now I’m happy to say [I’ve found it.](
I firmly believe early investors could see 11,678% returns.

Obviously, the need for more pipelines will benefit energy infrastructure investors. But the protests might very likely end up benefiting them as well.
See, as I mentioned just a minute ago, half of the existing natural gas pipeline network was installed in the 1950s and 1960s.
They're old. And many need repair.
The Infrastructure Report Card from the American Society of Civil Engineers gives U.S. energy infrastructure a grade of D+... just barely passing.
These protests draw attention to the state of the pipeline system and, more importantly to energy infrastructure investors, the need to spend money to repair them.
Congress is working on passing the +$200 billion infrastructure bill. And when it does, you can bet that building new and repairing existing natural gas pipelines will be at the top of the spending list.
My colleague Keith Kohl is positioning his readers now with several U.S. infrastructure plays ready to receive a windfall of business from this infrastructure bill. He tells me, “It's like a giant public notice written in neon, from Trump to the people, that reads: Invest in America and you'll make money!”

Have a good weekend.
Until next time,

[IN CASE YOU MISSED IT](
Last year, the United States became the global leader in oil and gas production.
That’s right. For the first time since 1973, the U.S. produced more oil and gas than Saudi Arabia and Russia.
And it’s all thanks to innovative oil and gas companies that have perfected drilling and fracturing practices.
Today, the U.S. is exporting more oil on a daily basis than what 12 OPEC nations produce.
That’s how big and game changing this is.
But our oil and natural gas distribution systems need updating and expanding — costing hundreds of billions.
Fortunately, there is something being done to fix our infrastructure, and it’s landing investors fortunes in the process.
