Pipeline to Salalah could work, just a bit expensive and takes a lot of time to build, and border crossings could be a diplomatic thing. But the pipeline would be an easy target for drone strikes and one as long as that is impossible to protect with anti air installations.

But theoretically it's possible.

Trucks not so much, a single tanker would take thousands of trucks and there isn't a straight and paved road through the desert. The trip would take days and loading-unloading would also take time, causing a traffic jam of oil trucks (just like the days long sewage truck traffic jam from the Burj Khalifa).

Gotta give him some credit: he’s merely asking if it’s possible, not proposing it as a well-researched solution.

They'll want to change the Paris to Dakaar Rally to carry oil on this new route

I wonder how long it would take to build a pipeline, if you were working as fast as humanly possible?
