If trains and trucks could move that volume economically, why are they not doing it today with the oil?

I don’t think you realize the volume a pipeline delivers.

Agreed about my conception of pipelines.

Refined product has a higher profit margin than raw oil, but I don’t know if it’s economically practical to transport smaller amounts.

Our biggest problem is the environazis and liberal courts. They tie us up, but only because we allow it. I wish we could build it, and then let them sue us.
