Scheduling do transporte de petróleo das plataformas marí­timas e de atendimento a centros consumidores

Abstract

Now a day, petroleum companies are looking for a way to calculate the best economic and time consuming alternative to move a group of ships between platforms, refineries and consuming centers. In the following research is introduced a solution to this problem through a system which optimize the main variables involved. Variables such as scheduling and road have been taken into account. The variable scheduling defines the road that each ship must follow. Meanwhile, the optimization of the route is based on traveling time between each points, uploaded and downloaded time, storing capacity at each point, etc. The following system has been tested in two real cases showing a good performance.
