A mixed integer linear programming for scheduling a multi- product pipeline with dual purpose terminals
Pipelines carry different types of petroleum products from production areas to long-distance terminals. This paper introduces a novel Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) based on a continuous time representation for scheduling a multi-product pipeline system connecting a unique refinery to several distribution centers where the mid-terminals are able to both inject product into the pipeline...
متن کاملPipeline-scheduling Simulator for Educational Purpose
This paper presents a project that provides both, to professors and to students, a tool that is useful for studying, teaching and learning how pipelines work and how they can be scheduled in an easy and widespread way. The project is called PipeSim, and features static and dynamic pipelines with a very attractive, dynamic and intuitive interface. It is well known that pipeline and pipeline-sche...
متن کاملAn Improved Optimization Model for Scheduling of a Multi-Product Tree-Like Pipeline
In the petroleum supply chain, oil refined products are often delivered to distribution centers by pipelines since they provide the most reliable and economical mode of transportation over large distances. This paper addresses the optimal scheduling of a complex pipeline network with multiple branching lines. The main challenge is to find the optimal sequence and time of product injections/deli...
متن کاملDetailed Scheduling of Tree-like Pipeline Networks with Multiple Refineries
In the oil supply chain, the refined petroleum products are transported by various transportation modes, such as rail, road, vessel and pipeline. The latter provides one of the safest and cheapest ways to connect production areas to local markets. This paper addresses the operational scheduling of a multi-product tree-like pipeline connecting several refineries to multiple distribution centers ...
متن کاملA Methodology for Scheduling Commodities in a Multi-product Pipeline
This paper addresses the problem of developing an optimisation model to aid the operational decision-making process in pipeline systems. The model is applied on a real world pipeline oil distribution scenario, which connects an inland refinery to a harbour, conveying multiple types of commodities. The optimisation model was developed based on mixed integer linear programming (MILP) with uniform...
