Pipeline Timeline (19

th

Century)

• 1859: Colonel Edwin Drake Strikes Oil in Titusville, Pennsylvania • 1863: The Teamsters- Oil initially transported by horse to rail terminals by Teamsters using whiskey barrels, giving the Teamsters a local spatial monopoly on delivery. The price to move a barrel of oil 5 miles by horse was greater than the charge to move from Pennsylvania to New York City.

• 1865: the first wooden oil pipeline built, about 9 miles long bypassing the teamsters.

• 1870: Standard Oil Company formed by John D. Rockefeller, largely produces kerosene for lighting and oil for heating • 1879: Tidewater - The First Crude Oil Trunkline (built by competitors to Standard Oil, soon acquired by Standard Oil interests, extended to Buffalo, Philadelphia, Cleveland, New York) • 1880s: The Rise of Russian (now Azerbaijani) Oil - Marcus Samuel developed the first organized kerosene shipping enterprise to compete with Rockefeller and send kerosene to Europe and the Far East.

• 1880-1905: Oil discovered in Ohio, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Spindletop, Texas

Pipeline Timeline (20

th

Century)

1905: Crude Oil Pipelines built from the fields in Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas to Eastern refineries.

1908: Henry Ford develops Automobile assembly line, gasoline becomes primary customer of oil, electricity continues to replace kerosene oil lamps.

1912: Sherman Anti-trust act finalized and Standard Oil dissolved.

1913: the Valuation Act was the first attempt at Federal involvement in US pipeline ratemaking.

1917: Crude Oil Pipelines 1920s: Pipeline Mileage Triples 1935: The first product pipelines where built from Whiting, St. Louis and Kansas City to the west.

1945: Product Lines Grow During World War II (oil tankers were sunk frequently, pipelines seen as more reliable).

1944: pipeline regulation became the responsibility of the US Interstate Commerce Commission who introduced the notion of reasonable returns in the 8 percent to 10 percent range.

1954: Stanolind, the Indiana Standard pipeline company, became the largest liquid pipeline carrier in North America. A position it held until the most recent Enbridge expansion.

1968: import refineries on the US Gulf Coast led to the construction of Colonial pipeline to supply the eastern seaboard. Colonial was the largest privately financed undertaking in US history in 1968.

1970 - 1977: The Trans Alaska Pipeline System (TAPS)
