Oil is primarily transported from Alaska to the contiguous United States through a network of pipelines and marine shipping. The Trans-Alaska Pipeline System (TAPS) transports crude oil from the North Slope of Alaska to the port of Valdez. From Valdez, the oil is loaded onto tankers that carry it to refineries along the West Coast and other destinations in the U.S. This combination of pipeline and maritime transport ensures efficient delivery of Alaskan oil to meet domestic energy needs.
