Pipeline is an important transportation mode for ail products. The popeline transportation and storage rates affect the popeline usage, and the popeline usage also affects the transportation revenue and operating costs of the popeline. The purpose of our study is to develop a decision support system simulating popeline transportation and storage rates for maximizing the utilization and profitability of the oil pipeline and apply it to the real situation. To do this, a simulation model to help the decision maker decide the rates of the oil pipeline is first proposed. Second, a simulation program is developed, which enables the user to evaluate the various scenarios of oil transportation and storage rates. Finally, this program is applied to the case study of oil industry in korea.

The international oil majors have been reducing the size of their own oil tanker fleet since early 1980s. Like international oil majors, the Korean refineries are becoming more dependent on tanker chartering rather than tanker ownership for their oil transportation since the 1990s. They also prefer spot charter to time charter and this kind of trend has continued up to now. Consequently, this paper attempted to find the factors influencing changes in tanker fleet composition. To attain the object of the paper, an empirical study is adopted using the ten decision-making factors derived from preceeding studies. The findings are that MARPOL and OPA 90, and transportation costs are the most important factors influencing an oil tanker fleet composition.

Used motor oil contains pollutants, including organic chemicals and meta]s. When disposed of improperly - in the trash, on the ground or in a sewer system - the pollutants may reach rivers, lakes or the ground water. Thus, all the waste oil products such as waste motor oil, waste oil container, and waste oil filter should be collected and transported for recycling or disposal by waste oil regulations. Because waste oil container is a valuable resource, waste oil containers can be reused, cleaned, buried, and burned for recycling processes. This paper presents the integrated management system that may increase the efficiency and productivity for collecting and reprocessing waste oil containers such as steel can and plastic container. The integrated management system consists of collection and transportation process management system and confirmation and certification process management system for waste oil containers.

The continuous increase of crude oil consumption has struck great impact into the world economy, When we consider disadvantageous articles in contract for oil import, it would be desirable to import in batch the total quantity of crude oil contracted, but which is not available under the present situation which has many constraints This paper treats of the ways to deliver the crude oil in a given period so as to maximize the profit derived from the sales of oil products, To do this we should consider the prices of crude oil and oil products, inventory cost, transportation cost, oil refinement cost, and fluctuations of these parameters in a given period. The case of Korea Oil Corporation is treated in this paper to generalize the problem of crude oil transportation from Middle East and formulated in a mathematical programming. This programming is transformed into Dynamic Programming through specifing states, stages, payoffs, and recursive function. To clarify these procedure and methods, the case of Korea Oil Corporation is dealt with again and demonstrated in detail.

An oil-tolerant and salt-resistant aqueous foam system was screened out as a possible lubricant to enable cold heavy oil transportation. The microstructures and viscoelasticity and effects of heavy oil, salt and temperature on the foam stability were investigated and new rheological and drainage models were established. The results indicate the foam with multilayered shells belongs to a special microcellular foam. The viscoelasticity could be neglected due to its low relaxation time. The drainage process can be divided into three stages. The foam with quality of 67.9% maintains great stability at high oil and salt concentrations and appropriate elevated temperature.

Security systems for inland cargo truck transportation are mostly limited to route tracking for safe and efficient transportation. With this route tracking system, the status of cargo trucks can be monitored easily within inland boundaries. In case of oil transportation by land, however, security systems ensuring transportation of a designated quantity of products have been subject to extensive research since thefts and substitution by a similar product in the transportation process have emerged as a social problem. Security devices installed in an oil tank truck must meet the explosion-proof performance standards and be applicable to varying types of trucks. Accordingly, a wireless electronic seal with RF communication functions is considered to be the most appropriate method, but e-seals on moving vehicles require such levels of performance and reliability that can overcome certain challenges including changing radio waves and topographical impediments. Considering these characteristics of oil tank trucks, this study proposes an stabilization method to enhance the RF communication performance of e-seals, based on radio simulation and experiment findings.

The transportation productivity is the throughput of utility per locations of resources and is able to be brought forth by using transportation mode. Therefore, Oil energy is necessary for using the transportation mode that is mainly consisted of four parts trucks, railroad, ship and aircraft, and Oil quantity used for such modes is not respectively same. Noticing Such a Point, the purpsoe of this paper is to reaserch the transportation mode of convertable cargoes and to minimize energy consumption quantity by adopting such a mode. We must ttend to Energy-Intensity, Transportation, Distance and cargo quantity for selecting the transport mode to energy consumption and the minimization of transportation energy consumption is concluded in the next LP Problem. As above mentioned, we can find the solution of Xij by the LP when Xij is transportation cargo per routes, and fullfil the minimization of Energy Consumption.

The offshore oil production requires a huge amount of cost and time accompanied by multiple variables due to the peculiar nature of 'offshore'. And every process concerned is controlled by elaborate series of plans for reducing loss of lives, environment and property. This paper treats an optimization problem for offshore oil production and transportation. We present an offshore production and transportation network to define scope of the problem and construct a mixed integer linear programming model to tackle it. To demonstrate the validity of the optimization model presented, some computational experiments based on hypothetical offshore oil fields and demand markets are carried out by using MS Office Excel solver. The downstream of the offshore production and transportation network ends up with the maritime transportation problem distributing the crude oil produced from offshore fields to demand markets. We used MoDiSS(Model-based DSS in Ship Scheduling) which was built to resolve this maritime transportation problem. The paper concludes with the remark that the results of the study might be meaningfully applicable to the real world problems of offshore oil production and transportation.

The industrial operation is one of the three basic modes of shipping operation with liner and Tramp operations. Industrial operators usually control vessels of their own or on a time charter to minimize the cost of shipping their cargoes. Such operations abound in shipping of bulk commodities, such as oil, chemicals and ores. This work is concerned with an operational optimization analysis of the fleet owned by a major oil company. a typical industrial operator. The operational optimization problem of the fleet of a major oil company is divided Into two phase problem. The front end corresponds to the optimization problem of the transportation of crude oil. product mix. and the distribution of product oil to comply with the demand of the market. The back end tackles the scheduling optimization problem of the fleet to meet the seaborne transportation demand derived from the front end. A case study reflecting the practices of an international major oil company is demonstrated to make clear the underlying ideas.
