Best Answer

All of the oil that is pumped from the oil fields in Alaska is sold to Japan.

AnswerThe above answer is 100% inaccurate.

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).

What is a good name for an Alaskan Malamute?

I had an Alaskan Malamute once. His name was Yukon, or Yukie for his nickname. Yukon is a territory in Canda, one of the places where people traveled with sled dogs to look for gold during the Alaskan Gold Rush. One of the breeds they used were Alaskan Malamutes, as they were very tough and had fluffy fur to protect themselves from the cold. This is just a suggestion, you don't have to follow it.
