Alaska oil faces $7 per barrel price outlook
Alaska North Slope oil is expected to fetch about seven dollars a barrel at wellhead due to transport costs and foreign competition. The trans Alaska pipeline will ship 600000 barrels daily from Prudhoe Bay to Valdez next summer, potentially doubling by year end, with a four and a half dollar tariff and tanker costs 50 cents to one dollar per barrel. The price must beat foreign imports at roughly thirteen dollars a barrel after transport costs, as FEA regulation shapes final delivered prices at West Coast ports.
