Setting the natural gas selling price through pipeline network optimization and project feasibility study

Abstract

Natural gas will play an important role in the energy revolution, but its construction is still costly. Natural gas transport pipeline network shoulders the task of gas supply, which plays a significant role in improving the overall socio-economic benefits for the region. Pipeline network optimization design is a complex problem, involving many variables. In this study, the location of the Distribution Center is considered and was obtained from the previous study. This study also considers the distance between locations of households. The Minimum Spanning Tree (MST) is applied to obtain the pipeline network length. Then, the calculation is proceeded through the Benefit-cost Ratio in determining whether this project is feasible or not. Although the MST result shows the pipeline is longer than the previous work, studies have shown that the project is still feasible to run. The study also explains that the government can still sell gas at a lower price in the break-even condition.

Project Scheduling of the Garment Business Using CPM-Crashing based on the POM-QM Application for Windows

“…The rate at which new clothing apparel is produced it is vital for garment producers to ensure successful execution of projects so the finished products get to land on display racks the fastest time. CPM as a project scheduling method is a useful tool for garment business project management assuming a deterministic turnaround time and it also provide the minimum project time completion (Leach, 2005;Nurprihatin et al, 2021). In a study conducted by Abbas and Onsa (2023) in SUR Military and Civil Clothing Factory using CPM, it was posited that production and process analysis aids in improving productivity, efficiency and overall optimization of time management.…”

The Sustainable Logistics: Big Data Analytics and Internet of Things

“…It brings hardness in reading with itself which entitled organization to installation a latest technique and gadget in analytical elements to overcome the complexity and massiveness of different styles of records (based, semi-established, and unstructured). So, a complex technique that goals to deal with complexity of massive facts by way of studying a big quantity of records is referred to as massive records analytics [16]. Big data analytics for the number one time have become coined by research that conducted by Chou and Thedja [17] who talked about the relation among organization intelligence and analytics that has robust ties with information mining and statistical evaluation [17].…”

An Integrated Model of Continuous Review Inventory and Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows

“…In this paper, the objective is to minimize the distribution cost, referring to the previous research (Gmira et al, 2021;Keskin et al, 2021). The distribution cost was traditionally approximated by the travel distance (Nurprihatin, Andry, et al, 2021; and by the stochastic travel time (Nurprihatin, Elnathan, et al, 2019;. However, a previous study utilized the real distribution cost given by third-party logistics (Nurprihatin, Regina, et al, 2021).…”
