The Colonial Pipeline is the largest pipeline system for refined oil products in the U.S. [1] The pipeline – consisting of three tubes – is 5,500 miles (8,850 km) long [1] and can carry 3 million barrels of fuel per day between Texas and New York. [2] It is operated by the Colonial Pipeline Company, which is headquartered in Alpharetta ...

Rail transport of crude oil has made a resurgence since 2005, largely due to the lack of pipeline capacity to transport the increased oil volumes from North Dakota. In 2014, 2.7 percent of crude oil arriving at refineries came by rail, up from 0.1 percent in 2005.
The initial capacity of the 122-centimetre (48 in) pipeline is 600,000 barrels per day (~3.0 × 10 ^ 7 t/a). By 2016 the capacity of the pipeline will be increased up to 1,000,000 barrels per day (~5.0 × 10 ^ 7 t/a) and by 2025 up to 1,600,000 barrels per day (~8.0 × 10 ^ 7 t/a).
