- Abstract:
- As petroleum resources are not steadily distributed in the world and all industries and manufacturing sections are dependent on these resources, petroleum transportation is very important to the extent that availability of these resources occurs in the fastest time and costing the least possible. The objective of this study is to study the petroleum distribution through time in the world and assess its transportation efficacy during 1965-2005 in 173 countries. Collecting information about petroleum distribution between exporting countries to importing ones helped to complete the study data base. Also in this study two transportation networks, sea and land multimodal transportation network and air distance network, were used to assess the petroleum distribution throughout the world. After gathering relevant variables about petroleum trade, gravity model of trade is used in order to assess its distribution throughout the world. Furthermore, in order to recognize the effect of independent variables on petroleum trade, especially transportation variables, sensitivity analysis was applied during time periods. Furthermore, in order to determine the amount of petroleum trade, while the network is working optimally, Linear Programming model, LP, with the use of MATLAB software is applied and the status quo of distribution and the optimum distribution are compared during time periods
