Abstract

A cost model of oil product secondary distribution system is proposed for the multi-variety oil product. Transportation assignment optimization of oil product secondary distribution with multiple oil depot distribution centers and multiple oil stations are studied. A transportation assignment scheme is obtained by the table-manipulation method. Total transportation cost can be optimized by the transportation assignment scheme. Based on this scheme, the total transportation cost of oil product secondary distribution can be calculated. Finally, a numerical example is given to verify the effectiveness of this scheme.
