Here's an illustration of the current pipeline route, which is called Keystone, and the route for the expansion (called Keystone XL). There was a bottleneck at Cushing OK, but Transcanada bought a pipeline that ran from Texas to Cushing and reversed the flow, allowing more oil to flow south to Texas(Gulf Coast Project) instead of relying on
Midwest refineries.</div><div class="" id="yiv2470709147yui_3_16_0_7_1415311189942_4" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: HelveticaNeue-Light, 'Helvetica Neue Light', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-style: normal; background-color: transparent;"><img class="" id="yiv2470709147yui_3_16_0_1_1415311189942_12014" src="http://cdn2.newsok.biz/cache/w300-35b5eddce7c682182b516176939f8bd8.jpg" alt="Photo - " style=""><br clear="none" class="" id="yiv2470709147yui_3_16_0_1_1415311189942_11908" style=""></div><div class="" id="yiv2470709147yui_3_16_0_7_1415311189942_6" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: HelveticaNeue-Light, 'Helvetica Neue Light', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"></div><div class="" id="yiv2470709147yui_3_16_0_7_1415311189942_8" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: HelveticaNeue-Light, 'Helvetica Neue Light', 'Helvetica Neue',

Right now the refineries in the Texas free-trade zone bring in crude from Venezuela and Saudi Arabia, and export refined products tax free. A lot of diesel goes to Europe and China where there's more demand than in the US. The XL expansion allows refinery expansion, as it would carry about as much crude as they now import from the aforementioned countries.Of
course, the companies deny their increased export intentions.</div><div class="" id="yiv2470709147yui_3_16_0_7_1415311189942_8" style=""><a href="http://money.cnn.com/2013/09/16/news/economy/keystone-oil/" class="" style="">Where Keystone's oil will go</a><br class="" style=""></div><div style="width:450px; font-family: 'Georgia', 'Times', 'Times New Roman', 'serif';margin-top:5px; margin-bottom: 5px; background-color: #ffffff;" contenteditable="false" id="enhancrCard_0" class=""><table class="" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" style="width:450px; height:170px; position: relative; display: block;"><tbody class="" style=""><tr class="" style=""><td class="" colspan="8" style="height: 1px; background-color: #e5e5e5; font-size: 1px; border-collapse: collapse;"><div class="" style="height: 1px; background-color: #e5e5e5; font-size: 1px; line-height:0px;"> </div></td></tr><tr class="" style=""><td rowspan="5" class="" style="width: 1px;
