An 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 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...
متن کاملOptimum Aggregate Inventory for Scheduling Multi-product Single Machine System with Zero Setup Time
In this paper we adopt the common cycle approach to economic lot scheduling problem and minimize the maximum aggregate inventory. We allow the occurrence of the idle times between any two consecutive products and consider limited capital for investment in inventory. We assume the setup times are negligible. To achieve the optimal investment in inventory we first find the idle times which minimi...
متن کاملA 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 کاملScheduling of a multiproduct pipeline system
Pipelines provide an economic fluid transportation mode for petroleum systems, especially when large amounts of petroleum derivatives have to be pumped for long distances. The system reported in this paper is composed by an oil refinery, one multiproduct pipeline connected to several depots and to the local consumer markets that receive large amounts of oil products. Extensive distances must be...
