The Cost of Transporting Oil: a Case Study of Saudi Arabia

EasyChair Preprint 8282

Abstract

A special class of linear programming (LP) in operations research (OR) is the transportation problem (TP), which is the most important and successful implementation (OR). The transportation problem is an important aspect that has been studied in many processes including the field of study. Therefore, it is used to simulate many real -life problems. The main purpose of the method of solving the shipping problem is to reduce the cost or time of shipping. Initial Basic Feasible Solution (IBFS). The transportation problem can be solved using the northwest corner rule, the minimum cost method, and the Vogel approximation. In this paper, we used the Vogel approximation, the optimistic optimization conditions are confirmed. Therefore, the problem of optimizing the transporting of products is very important for different disciplines.

Keyphrases: Linear Programming (LP), Operation Research, Transportation problem
