I believe that is the primary consideration. If oil is cut off from our friendly Arab brothers, it would be wise to have something in reserve.
And the pipeline can be run for many years down to about 300K barrels per day. After that, either more supply will need to be found to fill the pipe or it will have to be "batched", and run down the pipe between pigs.
