In recent years, privatization in the downstream industries of oil and gas , has been one of the most important measures taken to change and improve the business environment and remove barriers of production, as well as to implement of the general policies of Article 44 of the Constitution. This study intends to check out eleven variables related to the performance of six companies: Isfahan Oil Refinery, Bandar Abbas Oil Refinery, Tehran Oil Refinery, Lavan Oil Refinery, Shiraz Oil Refinery and Tabriz Oil Refinery by DID (fuzzy) method and compare it with control groups in order to Assess the privatization status of these companies. The results of this study show that two variables out of the eleven variables -, the ratio of general administrative and sales costs to revenues and the number of staff before and after the transfer, were significant for the control group. In other words, the employment situation and general administrative and sales costs in the companies under review were more unsatisfactory than the control group and in this regard, they had poor performance. This shows that in practice, the transfer of these companies has not affected the employment situation, positively.

Pricing and risk sharing in oil and gas service contracts such as buyback has always been the most important challenges in the contracting design. Asymmetric information leads to agency costs such as moral hazard and adverse selection and the process of contracting is complicated. In this paper, by using of agency theory, the process of buy-back contracts is modeled between the National Oil Company (NOC) and International Oil Company (IOC) with regard to moral hazard in case of risk averse and risk-neutral contractor. Finally, Mathematical modeling techniques are used to provide analysis of agency costs, and then optimal contract is extracted. An optimal contract is a contract in which the contractor will bear part of the increased costs. The results show that there is not corner solution for offering a contract, but the equilibrium relationship can be created between moral hazard, competition in the bidding and sharing the risk.
