Abstract

This paper proposes a methodology for evaluating investment decisions in waterway terminals, with the purpose of reducing logistics’ costs. Based on a Brazilian terminal, in order to reduce excessive costs of demurrage, a project is evaluated through the Real Options Theory. The case study involves statistical data collection and interviews.
