From just one company:

http://www.enbridge.com/DeliveringEnergy/OurPipelines.aspx

At Enbridge, we connect people to the energy they need to fuel their quality of life. Enbridge operates the world’s longest and most complex crude oil and liquids transportation system, with approximately 16,892 miles (27,185 kilometres) of crude pipeline across North America.

We deliver an average of 2.2 million barrels of crude oil and liquids every day, with a 99.9994% safe delivery record over the past decade while moving more than 15 billion barrels of crude.

We transport 53 per cent of U.S.-bound Canadian production, a figure that accounts for 15 per cent of total U.S. crude oil imports.

On any single day, Enbridge is the largest single conduit of oil into the U.S. We move close to 100 separate commodities, including more than 10 types of refined products.
