## Resource

Alaska’s oil pipeline just got a $13 billion valuation boost—tripling its worth since the last settlement—and could saddle owners with an extra $60 million in taxes. Cities like Valdez, which rely on that revenue, are thrilled, while oil companies are furious. The dispute, now headed back to court, could end up before the Alaska Supreme Court again—this time over whether the pipeline’s value should be based on past production or future reserves.
