India and Turkmenistan together account for 47.5% of the pipeline lengths planned to be built in the region by 2020.   
 
Gas Pipelines Account for Majority of the Active and Planned Pipeline Length in Asia-Pacific:
 
 There are currently 518 active oil and gas pipelines in Asia-Pacific, with a total length of 125,560 mi (202,069 km). Of these, 335 are gas pipelines, with a total length of 81,036 mi (130,414 km), or 64.5% of the total active pipeline length in the region.    Gas pipelines also account for the majority of pipelines planned to be built in Asia-Pacific by 2020. Of the 125 planned oil and gas pipelines in Asia-Pacific by 2020, 99 will carry gas, with a total length of 29,981.9 mi (48,251.2 km). Planned gas pipeline length in the region accounts for 80.4% of the total planned pipeline length to be built by 2020.
