This research was conducted with the aim of studying the effects of oil and gas industry development on the state of social damage in the native community of Assalouye. This research was conducted using quantitative and qualitative methods, in the qualitative part, the in-depth interview method was used, and in the quantitative part, survey and correlation research methods were used. The population of the current study was the native residents of Asalouyeh, 17 of them participated in the qualitative part using the purposeful sampling method, and 380 people participated in the quantitative part using the random proportional classification sampling method. In order to collect data from the qualitative part, in-depth interviews were conducted with the participants, and the data from the quantitative part was collected using a semi-standard and researcher-made questionnaire. The results showed that under the influence of the oil and gas industry entering the region, social harm has increased significantly. Most of the respondents stated that due to their dissatisfaction with their current living situation, they would move to change their place of residence if possible. The results of the quantitative analysis showed that before the entry of the oil industry, the quality of life can explain the variance of the criterion variable, i.e., the state of social harms, in a significant way to the extent of -20%.

One of the innovations that has been formed in the insurance industry in recent years is transfer the risk to the capital markets. Today, this possibility is provided by issuing insurance bonds and Catastrophe bonds, which are a most important type of insurance-linked securities (ILS), can redress inefficiency in the insurance industry.Today, more and more Catastrophe (CAT) bonds are being issued worldwide, which is welcomed by investors and insurance companies. On the other hand, traditional insurance solutions to cover the risks of Iran's oil and gas industry is not efficient and sufficient and using CAT bonds to transfer risks of this industry to capital markets is a necessary and inevitable issue.The aim of this research is to identify effective factors for issuing Catastrophe bonds in Iran's oil and gas industry. On this basis and after reviewing the literature through library studies, 33 factors were identified in the form of seven categories, based on the similarities. Then, based on Delphi method, experts were asked to express their opinions through an iterative questionnaire. After take the experts' opinions in every round, the statistics analysis was performed and the Delphi process was stopped in the third round. Based on the results, the number of 32 factors in six categories with the titles Legislation and Amendment of the Rules, Knowledge Management, Process Management, Transparency, Creation and Strengthening of Software Platforms and Cultivation were approved by experts and identified as effective factors for issuance of Cat bonds in Iran's oil and gas industry.

Project portfolio management is a comprehensive framework for decision making and selecting the portfolio of projects to achieve the goals of the organization by considering resource constraints. The importance of this issue in Iran's oil and gas industry is even more remarkable than ever due to its unique position in the country's economy, capital-intensive and capital budget constraints that have been intensified in recent years. Identifying and defining different scenarios for each oil and gas field, determining the parameters of the mathematical model, the required data to calculate the parameters of the model and the process and methods of identifying this data, indicate the distinction and necessity of this research. This study is an applied research in terms of objective, using mathematical modeling approach, has provided a pattern to determine the optimal portfolio of capital plans of oil and gas companies. The research method is case study which has studied one of the most important oil and gas producing companies in the country and the only offshore company. In this study, a framework for selecting the optimal portfolio of capital projects is determined and after gathering required data, the zero-one integer linear mathematical programming model with the objective function of maximizing the net present value from fields (as the strategic goal of company) by considering investment constraints was designed and solved by GAMS software. Finally, according to the defined constraint, the best investment mode for each field was identified and the optimal portfolio was defined.

One of the most critical bottlenecks in the country’s oil industry is the lack of sufficient liquidity and a suitable and codified method for financing projects in the downstream sector of Iran’s oil and gas industry. These projects include the construction of oil and gas refineries and petrochemical plants. Oil and gas projects require a very high volume of investment, and the limited financial resources and insufficient attractiveness of the currently defined instruments do not meet the new investment needs of downstream projects to achieve the 1404 vision. Therefore, in this article, due to the novelty of the issue, numerous interviews were conducted with staff and operational managers and other relevant officials in the field of financing the downstream part of the oil and gas industry. Then, with the help of Maxqda software, all independent ideas in the form of concepts and sub-themes were identified. With the help of the Delphi method based on the process of Islamic financial engineering based on responding to existing needs by identifying the needs of the parties to the transaction, asset base, and related cash flow analysis, appropriate structured instrument in this sector were designed in six instruments. From experts and related tests, as well as analysis and comparison of their various risks by AHP using Expert Choice software, finally based on the tests performed on the results obtained from questionnaires and interviews of experts, structured financing instrument in the form of convertible securities parallel Istisna Sukuk–Lease (Ijarah) and Sukuk–stock was approved.
