Forecasting Petroleum Requirements of a Certain Class of Ship

함정 기동장비의 유류소요 책정에 관한 연구

It is very important in the navy operation to forecast and allocate appropriate petroleum requirements of a certain class of ships for the next year. The amount of petroleum requirements is very much dependent on the number of operating and training days or the running time of the main engine and the gas turbine of the ship. Two regression models were estimated and analyzed from real data obtained from several ships operated during the past three years. Finally, the amount of petroleum requirements that a ship is expected to spend for the next year can be estimated by using this estimated regression model based on operating hours of main engines and gas turbines of the ship.
