Find an active rail line to the North Slope.
Keep in mind that most record cold days in Indiana are at least 70 degrees warmer than the average winter day at Barrow.
Actually, crude oil probably does get to Indiana via pipeline, it also has been known to travel by truck, rail, barge, and boat (maybe not to Whiting). When you deal with the logistics of moving natural gas and condensate across a state which, if split down the middle would make Texas the third largest state, numerous mountain ranges, and through temperatures and wilderness unimaginable to most of the population of the lower 48, a pipeline is the only way to go.
Without the Alsaka pipeline, the North slope development which has occurred would not have been economically viable, simply because of the logistics involved in getting the oil to market.
A natural gas pipeline has been in the works since the '70s, meeting environmental opposition every step of the way. Attempting to build, operate, and maintain a railroad in that terrain and climate to ship natural gas/condensate would be far more difficult and expensive, and meet at least as much environmentalist obstruction as the pipeline.
