Three pipeline companies—Oneok, Kinetik Holdings, and Williams—recently increased their dividend payments and offer yields between 3% and 8%, significantly higher than the S&P 500's 1.1% yield.

Energy Transfer offers a 7.5% yield backed by strong distributable cash flow coverage of 1.8x, with solid growth prospects from $5.5B in capital projects. However, conservative income investors should be cautious due to the company's history of cutting distributions during downturns (2020) and questionable corporate decisions (2016 Williams Companies deal), making alternatives like Enterprise Products Partners and Enbridge potentially more trustworthy despite lower yields.
