Trade Secret
Photograph by Sarah Leen
Somewhere in the western U.S., at a place nicknamed the "Pipeline Crossroads of the World," oil and its derivatives flow in and out of storage as they're bought, sold, and sent off to customers around the country 24 hours a day, seven days a week. For security reasons the town's Safety Alliance has asked that the location not be identified. "I wish times were different and we could say more," says a spokesman from a company operating there. "This is a unique facility where hundreds of interconnected underground pipelines move millions of barrels of products every day."
