Abstract: Safe, reliable plastic pipe has brought natural gas at low cost to millions of U.S. homes and businesses for more than two decades and the technology is still evolving. In 1994, the U.S. gas distribution industry installed 32,000 miles of pipe. Ninety percent of all the distribution gas pipe installed is polyethylene (PE). Of the 32,000 miles installed, about 17,000 miles were used for mains and 15,000 miles for services. Approximately, two thirds of the pipes installed each year are used for new services and mains one third of the pipes are used each year to repair, replace, or renew older steel and cast iron gas distribution pipes. For extending mains and services to new customers, the gas distribution industry spends about 3 billion annually.
