Summary
Description
Alaska Petroleum Distributing (APD) has proudly served Alaska’s Interior since 1981, delivering heating oil, gasoline, and diesel fuels to homes, businesses, and critical industries across Fairbanks, North Pole, and surrounding communities. With a long-standing reputation for dependability, innovation, and local care, APD is one of the largest fuel distributors in the region.
In 2019, APD joined NorthStar Energy, part of the Saltchuk family of companies, combining its strong local roots with the shared expertise and resources of a broader enterprise. The company’s focus on environmental safety led to Alaska’s first state-approved double-walled fuel storage tanks—just one example of its commitment to responsible operations.
APD’s close-knit team takes pride in supporting their neighbors and fueling the daily life of Alaska’s communities with the same integrity and excellence that have defined the company for more than four decades.
