The beginning is in the early 1960s. Nevertheless, since then, Transcontinental Pipeline and Kern River Pipeline have developed and grown to a wide scale from all the possible points of view and have become, without any shadow of doubt, two important forces on the gas pipeline market in the United States. Their rationale similar to the motivation of other experienced natural gas deliverers is in the providing of the American people with the natural gas needed for homemaking or for adjacent purposes. The system of Transcontinental Pipeline is a 10,500 miles one and it provides transportation of natural gas on an interstate circuit that spreads through the perimeter of the United States starting from the Gulf Coast and reaching the markets in the eastern and southeastern states. Having a capacity of approximately 6.4 Billion cubic feet per day (quite impressive, actually, if you come to think about it), a storage capacity per season close to 219 Billion cubic feet, Transcontinental Pipeline was not a part of Williams prior to 1995, but now, as one of the Williams Companies, Transcontinental Pipeline is entering an era full of opportunities that multiply as they are seized, contributing to the growth of the company. Way back in the first year of the 60s, the company decided that there was no way it could succeed unless it was ready to do some sacrifices and about everything it would take in order to make the business work and prosper bringing new clientele and developing a well structured, safe and useful gas pipeline system for the American people. Therefore, the company invested all its efforts into it and accomplished the construction of the longest natural gas pipeline in the world that existed at that moment. In the present, Transcontinental Pipeline continues with the tradition of doing whatever it takes, so that it can keep providing the customers with the safest and most reliable service existing in the natural gas transportation industry. The Kern River Pipeline system is, as well as Transcontinental Pipeline, one of the main leaders on the market in the gas pipeline business in the United States. The Kern River Pipeline system has proved to be, without any shadow of doubt, an extremely high important artery of gas pipelines that provides natural gas into California, Nevada and Utah. The gas pipeline system is more than a mere producer of gas and oil. This wide system spreads like a spider web over entire fields in all the southwestern Wyoming. It passes through Nevada, Utah, and arrives at the point where the San Joaquin Valley lies, in California. The natural gas pipeline system has in the present a design capacity of about more than 1.7 billion cubic feet per day. Kern River Pipeline measures almost 1,679 miles (2,702 km) and it carries natural gas, produced in the Rocky Mountains, all the way to California by following the Kern River through Nevada. The system also provides natural gas to the city of Las Vegas. Kern River Gas Transmission Company, a subsidiary of MidAmerican Energy Holdings Company, owns Kern River Pipeline.
