ABSTRACT: Chemical Bulk transportation can be done by mean of several transportation mode according to the distance to be covered and the total amount to be moved. Since Chemical plants are, generally, operating 24/7, a proper logistic management has to be used in order to save money and increase the production capability. The proposed paper presented an application of Modeling & Simulation to a real life application in order to support strategically and tactical decisions.
