The adoption of Multicriteria Decision Aid (MCDA) methods in the management and planning of the petroleum and gas industry: a bibliographical study

The application of multicriteria methods in the planning and management of the oil and gas industry has been studied by various authors. However, these studies are distributed in a scattered manner in the literature, which creates difficulties in obtaining an overview. To provide a systematic view on this matter, this paper presents a bibliographical mapping of papers that approach the use of multicriteria methods for planning and management in the oil and gas industry. The reviewed documents were selected through a search in the Scopus and ISI (Web of Knowledge) databases. Among the study results, it is found that the most commonly used multicriteria method was AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process). Furthermore, it is observed that the majority of multicriteria method applications are related to oil, midstream activities and onshore facilities.
