ConocoPhillipsRenewal of federal land rights provides long-term operational certainty for pipeline ownership.
The owners of the 800-mile Trans-Alaska Pipeline System are seeking to renew its federal land authorization more than seven years before it expires, aiming to ensure the Trump administration makes the determination rather than his successor. The Interior Department has launched a formal review of the reauthorization application from Alyeska Pipeline Service Company, which operates the pipeline on behalf of owners Hilcorp Energy, ConocoPhillips, and Exxon Mobil. If successful, the bid would result in 30 more years of federal land authorizations, offering more certainty for a critical piece of U.S. oil infrastructure. The effort coincides with the Interior Department's preparation to ease environmental review requirements for some oil and gas exploration in Alaska's National Petroleum Reserve, part of Trump's push to speed energy development in the Arctic.
