This paper presents a logistic simulation study in order to evaluate technical feasibility and operative costs (demurrage hours) associated to several operating strategies of transshipments in remote sites in order to assure a certain regasification rate of LNG to the network. In particular two scenarios were evaluated (A and B) within which searching for best operating strategies and evaluation of associated costs. The suggested approach uses a hybrid system dynamics simulation that combines typical elements of DiscreteEvent Simulation with the characteristics of a dynamic model.

Abstract

This paper presents a logistic simulation study in order to evaluate technical feasibility and operative costs (demurrage hours) associated to several operating strategies of transshipments in remote sites in order to assure a certain regasification rate of LNG to the network. In particular two scenarios were evaluated (A and B) within which searching for best operating strategies and evaluation of associated costs. The suggested approach uses a hybrid system dynamics simulation that combines typical elements of DiscreteEvent Simulation with the characteristics of a dynamic model.
