SIMULATION ANALYSIS OF MARINE TERMINAL INVESTMENTS

The basic technical features of the general simulation model for marine terminal studies, as developed by the Exxon Corporation, are discussed. The model was developed for use in optimizing terminal facilities to minimize delays in servicing incoming tankers. A typical application of the model is discussed.
