The Iranian economy is intensely affected by the size of the government and oil income. Oil incomes might influence the relationship between inflation and government size since financing the budget in Iran is based to a significant degree on oil revenues. Due to the significance of government size and oil income on the price level, the oil revenue-government size-inflation nexus in Iran during the period 1991-2021 is considered. Estimation results of a Markov switching model recommend that government size incorporates a significant positive affect on inflation. Moreover, the growth of oil income is found to have a significant negative affect on the inflation. Based on the findings, it appears that there are two regimes being considered: Regime 1, which represents a high inflation regime, and Regime 2, which represents a low inflation regime. Our findings suggest that once in the low inflation regime (Regime 2), there is a moderate chance of remaining in that state. However, if initially in the high inflation regime (Regime 1), there is a higher probability of staying in that state and a lower probability of transitioning to the low inflation regime.

According to the form-out agreement the investor of the international petroleum agreement “farmor”, during the implementation of the project and due to various reasons such as lack of finance resources and/or incapability of contract performance, assigns provision of required investments for the purpose of performing an upstream oil project and/or certain operations (well drilling) under the upstream contract to other entities “farmee”, and generally in case of fulfillment of the aforementioned affairs by the farmee, the farmor transfers to the farmee a percentage of its participating interest in the international petroleum agreement upon permission from the host country. In line with this, through evaluating the upstream contracts in Iran, as well as the necessities for attracting investments for the purpose of performing such contracts, it is possible to find out the importance of clause concerning the assignment of contract in order for creating required legal instruments for entering into the farm-out agreement in accordance with the rules and regulations. So that through concluding farm-out agreement between the present and the potential investors, prevent emerging difficulties arising out of mere assignment of the contract to the potential investors during the implementation of upstream contracts.

This research aims to identify the effective factors on sustainable supply chain in the National Iranian South Oil Company (NISOC). The method of data collection was mixed methods. In the qualitative section, data were collected through reviewing 32 previous studies as well as in-depth interviews with 10 faculty members and experts in the field of sustainable supply chain of crude oil and oil products of the NISOC using a Non-Probability Judgmental Sampling. The main dimensions were identified from interviews, and the dimensions were grouped in 13 main categories and 78 sub-categories. 13 main components included organizational factors, production products, sustainable supply chain, industry supply chain, macro policies, technology, customer, economic factors, deficits of supply chain, social factors, political factors, organizational performance, and organizational productivity. Second, through reviewing literature and previous studies, 72 open codes in 9 categories were identified, including strategies, blockchain technology, improving the economic environment, improving the social and environmental policies and laws, internal organizational solutions, external organizational solutions, environmental management, market and capital factors. In the quantitative part, the researcher-made questionnaire was applied in a preliminary study on 10 experts in the field of management, and its relative content validity is examined. Then the final and modified version was provided to 384 employees of the NISOC. SmartPLS software were used for quantitative evaluation of the model. The presented model helps industry managers and decision makers to significantly improve the performance of the supply chain by re-designing the supply chain and taking appropriate measures.

The current research was conducted with the aim of providing a conceptual framework for the development of relations with suppliers in Abadan Oil Refining Company. The research method is qualitative and based on the data theory of the foundation. To collect data, semi-structured interview was used and data analysis was done by Strauss and Corbin method and paradigm model. The statistical population was experts and managers with experience in Abadan Oil Refining Company, from which a sample of 21 people was selected after reaching theoretical saturation. Sampling has been done theoretically and using targeted (judgmental) techniques. The results of the analysis of the data obtained from the interviews, during the process of open, central and selective coding, led to the creation of models of the development model of the relationship with the suppliers of consumer products in the Abadan Oil Refining Company based on the data theory of the foundation, which ultimately provided a model for the development model. Communication with suppliers was identified. The findings of this research indicate that for the success of the development model of the relationship with the suppliers of consumer products, company managers can pay attention to the identified categories and subcategories and if they match the conditions of the company, from this category. use In addition, this research shows the need to pay attention to the development patterns of relationships with suppliers.

The purpose of this study is to design a strategic restructuring model for strategic restructuring in the oil industry with attention and emphasis on eco-industrial development. This current research is developmental in terms of its purpose; In terms of approach, it has been done qualitatively and based on metacomposition. Based on this, the statistical community of the research includes a collection of articles that have been published from 2020 to 2023 on the topic of strategic restructuring and organizational modernization, and the authors have searched among prominent domestic and foreign scientific databases to find 57 articles out of 336. They selected articles and after analyzing their content, categories and concepts were extracted and their prioritization was done using Shannon's entropy method. Based on the research findings, 40 concepts were identified in the form of 10 categories and were separated into three categories intra-organizational, extra-organizational, and environmental factors. The categories of Organizational transformation, the establishment of new management styles, organizational knowledge, customer relationship management, broker organization, integration of industry and environment, adaptability, and predictability, job training needs assessment, quick and smart thinking, and human resource evaluation had the highest coefficient of importance, respectively. Therefore, due to its entrepreneurial nature, strategic restructuring will affect the realization of environmental protection as much as possible and will increase the responsibility of the oil industry towards the environment.
