Beginning in 1953, the readers of Life were transfixed by a dramatic industrial story covered by the magazine’s renowned staff photojournalist, Margaret Bourke-White: the construction of the Gulf Interstate Gas Pipeline.
Periodically, Life magazine traced the progress of Gulf Interstate’s natural gas pipeline construction progress until the 1954 project end. The main pipeline ran from Louisiana to Kentucky to serve the growing U.S. markets for natural gas energy. Overall, the span of the transmission system totaled 1,160 miles—an innovative and historic engineering marvel in America’s post-war industrial age.
Now, we work with real-time tools, connecting Gulf’s expertise and proven experience everywhere our clients operate. Our engineering, procurement, and construction management projects have gone beyond conventional oil and gas transmission to natural gas liquids (NGLs), liquefied natural gas (LNG), supercritical carbon dioxide (CO2) and renewables (solar and wind).
Our midstream, upstream, electric transmission, and telecommunication clients still rely on the Gulf companies for single-source accountability and predictable return on investment (ROI). Count on Gulf’s superior engineering design, procurement, construction management, survey, land and pipeline integrity for your most valuable assets. We’re 67 years strong!”
