Abstract(s)

This paper addresses the strategic and tactical planning of a downstream oil supply chain (DOSC) subject to different sources of uncertainty. This problem is formulated as a mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) model, whereas uncertainty is tackled using chance constrained programming with fuzzy parameters. The MILP model aims at determining the network design and the products distribution plan in a cost-effective way. A real case study on the Brazilian oil industry is used to validate the model. The proposed model shows to be a valuable decision-support tool in order to aid the decision-making process in the strategic and tactical planning of real-life problems.
