5. PROBLEMS IN OIL LOGISTICS
• Transporting oil from oil well to refinery and after that to the client requires a
complex transportation and storage system.
•
• About 40% of world oil flows through pipelines which are located very far from
settlements and some of them built in high-risk regions of the world.
.
• Terrorism. Simple explosive device could damage pipeline. It is very difficult to
protect pipeline due to it’s length. Pipeline is potential terrorist target.
• To fix circumstances of unexpected situation we need to apply a range of
preventive measures to minimize negative impact on environment, personnel and
settlements.
• All these factors reflect final cost increasing of oil products.

6. Pipeline break – action list
• Close the pipeline seal.
• Notify buyer.
• Repair team busy? YES or NO.
• Review possibility to rent railroad tanks.

7. • Oil storage is available ?
• Notify buyer.
• Open seal to continue supply.
• Calculate additional costs;
Pipeline break – action planning (continue)

8. 3 main steps to minimize harmful
circumstances of oil spill
Suspend oil
products
supply
Collect
spilled oil
ASAP
Apply range of
measures to minimize
environment damage

9. DEPENDENCY OF OIL VOLUME SPILL
AND SPACE OF THE AFFECTED AREAS
Up to 100 tons
of oil and oil products
on the affected territory
From 100 up to
500 tons oil and oil
products on the
affected territory
From 500 up to
1000 tons of oil and
oil products on the
affected territory
Local
Municipal
Regional
Federal
Territorial
From 1000 up to
5000 tons of oil and
oil products on the
affected territory
More than 5000
tons of oil and oil

16. SITUATION CALCULUS APPROACH WITH
INCOMPLETE INFORMATION FOR DECISION-MAKING
Plug_cloused:= False is taken place, and assertion
Is_supplying(seller/IPS, buyer/IPB, opk/TSC, pl1/PLI, avt/AVI, pui/USD,sbt/TIM, sct/TIM):=True is valid.
1.Determine all fluents for possible actions.
Poss(¬) ↔ repair_crew (¬busy(repair_crew,s)).
Poss(pollution(pipeline), do(a,s)↔( a=broke_pipeline)  is_supplying(pipeline)(broken(pipeline,s)  a 
close_plug(pipeline,s)).
Poss(penalty_calc(seller),s)↔seller suspension_supply(seller) => ready? ask => else suspend.
Poss(supply_resume(seller),do(a1(do(a2,s2)) ↔(a1=direct,(a2=repair(pipeline,s) open_plug(pipeline,s2)).
Poss(direct(repair_crew))repair_crew( ¬busy(repair_crew,s)).
2. Determining all types of actions in specific situations.
Is_supplying(seller,do(a,s)) ↔ (a=contract(seller)  a=open_plug(pipeline,s))  (a=suspension_supply(seller) 
a=supply_resume(seller).
broken(pipeline,s)  suspension_supply(seller). => ready? ask => else suspend.
suspension_supply(seller) ↔ penalty_calc(seller).

open_plug(pipeline,s2)) ↔is_leaking(opt).
is_leaking(opt) ↔pollution_penalty.
