Cotton fabrics chosen for Alaska pipeline project
Alyeska Pipeline officials favor 100 percent cotton duck for Arctic conditions in building camps and roads along the trans Alaska pipeline. Cotton Incorporated says about 50 million worth of fabric will be used and the system could require up to 45 000 bales. The project aims to move 1.2 million barrels daily from Prudhoe Bay to Valdez, later rising to 2 million barrels.
