Alternative mixed-integer linear programming models of a maritime inventory routing problem

Yongheng Jiang, Ignacio E. Grossmann

Abstract: Highlights•Continuous time models and reformulations for maritime inventory routing with single docks.•An extended model based on event points is presented to handle parallel docks.•A discrete time model based on a single commodity fixed-charge network flow problem is described.•The computational performance of the models is compared on multiple instances of six problems.
