GAS STATION LOCATION SELECTION USING Q-ROF TOPSIS AND Q-ROF COCOSO METHODS

Öz

Petroleum and petroleum products maintain their importance in the world economy. Therefore, there is a need to establish new petrol stations or to improve the existing ones in order to meet the need for oil. In this study, the location selection problem for a petrol station is investigated. Location selection problems are solved by Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) methods. When the studies in the literature are examined, it is seen that fuzzy set-based approaches are preferred in order to clarify the uncertainty in the answers of the decision makers. Therefore, in this study, q-level fuzzy set-based methods are used to present a more objective ranking approach. In the proposed approach, q-Rung Orthopair Fuzzy Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to an Ideal Solution (q-ROF TOPSIS) and q-Rung Orthopair Fuzzy Combined Compromise Solution (q-ROF CoCoSo) methods were used. The proposed approach is evaluated to solve the site selection problem for a petrol station installation in Adana. Ten criteria, both found in the literature and original, were determined for the study. After weighting the criteria, 3 expert opinions were consulted to rank 5 candidate locations with different station types. The results of the study were interpreted, sensitivity analysis was conducted and the effect of the parameters on the result was examined.

Q-ROF TOPSIS VE Q-ROF COCOSO YÖNTEMLERİYLE PETROL İSTASYONU YER SEÇİMİ

Öz

Petrol ve petrol ürünleri dünya ekonomisindeki önemini korumaktadır. Bu sebepten dolayı, petrol ihtiyacını karşılamak adına petrol istasyonu kurulmasına ya da varolan istasyonların iyileştirilmesine ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, bir petrol istasyonu için tesis yeri seçimi problemi incelenmiştir. Tesis yeri seçimi problemleri Çok Kriterli Karar Verme (ÇKKV) yöntemleri ile çözülmektedir. Literatürdeki çalışmalar incelendiğinde, karar vericilerin yanıtlarındaki belirsizliği çalışmaya doğru şekilde aktarabilmek adına bulanık küme temelli yaklaşımlar tercih edildiği görülmüştür. Bu nedenle bu çalşmada q-seviyeli bulanık küme temelli yöntemler kullanılmıştır. Çalışma gerçek verilerle yapılmış olup, Adana ilinde bir petrol istasyonu kurulumu için yer seçimi problemine çözüm aramaktadır. Çalışma için hem literatürde bulunan hem de özgün olan toplam 10 tane kriter belirlenmiştir. 3 karar verici 5 aday lokasyon arasından seçim yapacaktır. Bu çalışmada q-Rung Orthopair Fuzzy Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to an Ideal Solution (q-ROF TOPSIS) ve q-Rung Orthopair Fuzzy Combined Compromise Solution (q-ROF CoCoSo) yöntemleri kullanılmıştır. Çalışma sonuçları yorumlanmış, duyarlılık analizi yapılarak parametrelerin sonuca etkisi incelenmiş ve çalışma tamamlanmıştır.
