Pfofit optimization in gas transmission: case of Purbachal project

Abstract

A lot of effort has been directed for gas network design in this country. The proposed gas network will be considered as part of the existing gas pipeline network. One oflhc objectives ofth!s project work is to identify the parameters affecting economic viability of the Purbaehal project, optimize, in terms of profitability, the gas transmission network and evaluate the economic viability of the "Purbaehal project", The main outcome oflhis project is: an inclusive economic analysIs report of the "Purbaehal Projcd' which will investigate the financial viability of the project In this project work, a financial profile has been built for fmding net present value (NPV), benefit cost ratio (BCR) and internal rate of return (lRR) on the basis of 20 year project life. The proposed gas network that includes new aspects of designing may be fruitful for new network designing purpose in our gas distribution sector.
