In this article we explain the production behavior in National Iranian oil Company (NIOC) from Transaction Cost Economics’ (TCE) view. The main question in TCE is vertical integration or build or buy decision. So we can analyse governance structure of NIOC for developing plans from buying (buy back contracts) or bulding methods in production of hydrocarbon (Oil and Gas). TCE says Governance Structure aligns itself with Characteristics of Transaction subject to minimization of transactions costs. For surveying this subject, we analysed effective factors on generating transaction costs and governance structure of production in NIOC with using probit model. The results of article relatively supported from TCE hypothesis.
