abstract="While accidents in the petroleum industry are commonly connected to oil spill disasters, helicopter accidents are, in terms of incidence rates, a more grave concern in Norway. In this paper we present a range of mathematical programming models and a workflow that support decision makers in planning an emergency response system. For the models that are difficult to solve directly, we introduce a tailor-made solution method. With respect to the optimization objectives and constraints, we particularly focus on the performance metrics of response capacity and response time and show that the optimal solutions can differ remarkably, depending on which metric is in the optimization objective. Moreover, we present a multi-objective model that combines the optimization goals to achieve a balanced solution. A case study shows the concrete application of our framework.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
