Parameters

K ω v

environmental consequence associated with vessel v in scenario ω v

R ω v

failure probability for vessel scenario ω v

R ω ¯

probability for scenario ω ¯ = ( ω 1 , , ω v ) , R ω ¯ = v V R ω v

Q g c ω v

probability of successful hook-up by tugboat g with vessel v, given

tugboat g is in cell c at time of distress call t and vessel v follows

scenario ω v = ( t , p i ) , p i P ω v t

c 0 g

initial position of tugboat g

Variables

x g c t

binary variable taking the value 1 if tugboat g is in cell c at time t,

0 otherwise

z g c ω v

binary variable takes the value 1 if tugboat g is in cell c at time of distress

call t and is allocated (nearest) to vessel v doing scenario ω v
