None of it.

When the Trans Alaska Pipeline was constructed it was illegal to ship any of the oil from Alaska to other countries. Then during the Clinton Administration when oil was $8 a barrel, that law was changed. For 2 years Alyeska Pipeline Terminal shipped to Japan and South Korea a total of 5 times. They decided that this was not cost effective and now they no longer ship there. This was years ago. Now all the oil goes to refineries in Washington state, California and Hawaii. It provides most of the fuel in the Northwestern States. None of it leaves the country.

I have this information because I live in Valdez, Alaska. Where the end of the Trans Alaska Pipeline is located and the oil is shipped from. I receive my information from locals including family members who work at the Alyeska Pipeline Terminal (some of who are managers).

Who receives oil from the Trans-Alaska Pipeline?

I heard from a source long ago, that a large percentage of the oil goes to Japan.Reason being, much greater profit for the oil company, than sending all the oil to the lower 48 states.I hope I'm wrong, but I rather doubt it when it concerns corporate greed.AnswerGood News!

How much United States oil is exported?

There is no official answer to how much crude oil is being exported that is easy to find online. There is, however, a Forbes article dated July 3rd, 2008, that provides the following about refined products such as gas and diesel: "A record 1.6 million barrels a day in U.S. refined petroleum products were exported during the first four months of this year, up 33 percent from 1.2 million barrels a day over the same period in 2007. Shipments this February topped 1.8 million barrels a day for the first time during any month, according to final numbers from the Energy Department." Based on the Energy Information Agencies' (EIA) numbers, the US uses approximately 20 million barrels of crude a day. The EIA also reports that 1 barrel of crude (42 gallons) makes approximately 20 gallons of gasoline and 7 gallons of diesel. Assuming that most of the exported products are gasoline and diesel, and knowing from calculating that roughly 64% of a barrel of crude oil (which is the percentage of gasoline and diesel that comes out of a barrel of crude oil) can be refined into gasoline and diesel, then the 1.6 million barrels a day being exported represents roughly 2.2 million barrels of crude a day or about 10% of the crude oil used daily by the US. It may be accurate to say that no crude oil is being exported from the US, but up to 10% of our crude oil is being exported in the form of refined products. This makes the argument that the US has a shortage of refining capacity to handle the US market questionable at best. The assumption made here is that most of the refined products being exported are gasoline and diesel instead of other oil related products. If this assumption is way off, please post what the correct stats are and a reliable source for any correction.

Why was the Alaskan pipeline built above ground and insulated?

I would be inclined to believe that the pipeline was built above ground to avoid destroying the terrain that it runs through.Also dealing with the permafrost would prove costly and would have taken much longer to finish.Besides it makes maintaining it much easier.
