Pipeline Pitfalls: Which Midstream Oil Companies Are Affected?

These companies are facing serious snags getting their pipelines built, and that means lost revenue.

By Taylor Muckerman and Joel South – Dec 13, 2012 at 3:57PM EST

In the video below, Motley Fool energy analysts Taylor Muckerman and Joel South discuss a few midstream companies that are currently facing issues. These problems involve some of the largest pipelines in the world. Two of the companies are Enbridge (ENB +0.23%) and TransCanada (TRP +0.36%). Meanwhile, Williams (WMB +0.44%) and Chesapeake Energy (CHK +0.00%) both have reached deals with Access Midstream Partners that should prove beneficial to all parties.

Note: TransCanada's court order, which was blocking further construction, was lifted today (video shot on 12/12/2012), but this instance continues to display the delays that major pipelines will likely face moving forward.
