I think you'll have a hard time backing that up with factual data rather than rumor. See the Q&A next to Alaska map here: http://www.gravmag.com/oil3.html#ak

Exporting Alaska crude was forbidden by law when exploration and production were authorized in the 70's. President Clinton (which to some will make it okay) waived that in 1995, but it was re-imposed in 2000.
