It looks like we're going to have to get conversant with BCFE per day, or simply BCF per day for tracking natural gas discussions.
This page in the blog will track some of these data points.
We will start here:
Largest natural gas pipeline in North Dakota in volume natural gas:
What is the biggest natural gas pipeline in North Dakota in natural gas BCF per day?
Answer: The largest planned natural gas pipeline in North Dakota is the proposed Intensity Pipeline, with a potential capacity of up to 1.5 Bcf/d, according to Intensity Infrastructure Partners.
Currently, the largest operational pipeline is the Greenholly Gathering Pipeline at up to 1.15 Bcf/d, reports Kinder Morgan.
AI prompt:
For a 2-GW AI large data center, in energy requirements for natural gas on a daily basis, how much natural gas -- in BCFE per day -- would be required? Answer: to get this answer, ChatAI provides all the calculations -- way more than I need.
Natural gas. In BCF per day volumes what's the largest natural gas pipeline in the United States.
The largest natural gas pipeline in the United States by capacity is the Transcontinental (Transco) Pipeline, with a design capacity of 17.388 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d).
Another contender for the largest system, though not for single pipeline capacity, is the Northern Natural Gas Company, which operates the largest overall interstate pipeline system in the U.S., consisting of 14,200 miles of pipe, as noted by Berkshire Hathaway Energy.
Transcontinental (Transco) Pipeline: This pipeline has a design capacity of 17.388 Bcf/d, making it the single largest pipeline by capacity.
Northern Natural Gas Company: The U.S.'s largest interstate pipeline system is operated by the Northern Natural Gas Company. It stretches 14,200 miles, from southern Texas to Michigan's Upper Peninsula, but is a large system, not a single pipeline, as stated by Berkshire Hathaway Energy.
Who will be paying the most, in dollars, for natural gas in the near future: Tokyo or Frankfurt?
That's a trick question: in the near future, the two cities who will be paying the most for natural gas: NYC and Boston.
This was stated at CNBC at ~3:30 p.m. CT, Wednesday, October 22, 2025. Time to ask ChatGPT.
ChatGPT: perhaps a kernel of truth but not verifiable. And way too many variables.
But, pressing ChatGPT to provide some kind of answer, after a very exhaustive re-look:
ChatGPT:
North Dakota, right now: for industrial customers in North Dakota, the natural gas price was $4.64 per thousand cubic feet in February 2025. While this is the latest price available for the state, commercial rates are often different and vary based on the specific provider and contract.
