摘要
The possibilities to start a logistics chain to import coal on inland waterways in India is researched. Direct floating transshipment is the best modality due to lack of suited harbours in the area. The storage on the floating terminal decouples the hinterland logistics chain with the supplying deep-sea vessels. After studying seven different configurations it turned out that the simplest and the most efficient configurations are most promising. A simulation model is used to test the variation on the output when stochastics are introduced. The results from the simulations show that the inland waters of India are very suited for coal import because it's cheaper and more realiable than transport by rail.
