Operations Research of Petroleum Strategy

This book is intended to serve as a foundational reference for the formulation of petroleum strategies, leveraging operational research to enhance the safety, cost-effectiveness, and efficiency of oil exploration, extraction, procurement, transportation, refining, and distribution. It offers a comprehensive review of the historical evolution of the modern petroleum industry, enumerates representative petrochemical products integral to industrial production and daily life, elucidates the essential characteristics of international petroleum power, synthesizes algorithmic theories frequently employed in petroleum strategy operations, examines representative case studies, and anticipates future developments in the operational research of petroleum strategy.

This book involves case studies by combining operational research with petroleum strategy. By introducing mathematical modeling into practical contexts, it enables readers to efficiently identify optimal solutions, and concrete challenges in resource allocation and strategic planning.

Is a first comprehensive application of operational research in the entire petrochemical industry chain Provides a user-friendly reference book that presents theoretical insights and practical case studies Utilizes examples to demonstrate how operations research can be applied in a safe, cost-effective and efficient way
