Pipeline 101
North Slope
Crude Oil
Every day the Trans Alaska Pipeline System transports nearly a
million barrels of crude oil from the North Slope to
the Port of Valdez. When refined and
processed, crude oil becomes
petroleum - a product found in everything from the ink on
this newsletter to soaps, deodorants, pharmaceuticals
and even bubble gum.
