Abstract
Abstract:
Due to current sanctions, financing upstream oil industry projects faces significant challenges. To design an effective financing portfolio for these projects, we first identified financing criteria through a literature review. Using the fuzzy Delphi method, we screened and determined six main criteria. The fuzzy DEMATEL technique revealed that among these criteria, repayment structure constraints, currency exchange rate fluctuation risk, external monitoring factors (cause type), and The financing cost factors, the time required to acquire financial resources, and the risk of failing to obtain financial resources are of the effect (dependent) type. Additionally, the time required to acquire financial resources has a greater weight compared to other criteria. Considering the weighted criteria the fuzzy TOPSIS technique showed that issuing forward contracts had the highest priority, while obtaining international bank loans had the lowest priority. The study involved 12 experts from the oil industry and the banking and capital markets, who provided responses to structured questionnaires.
