Abstract
Improving the tools and mathematical methods to diversify the portfolio of oil and gas assets in the face of limited investment, high market volatility, increasing risks and uncertainties at the current level of technology development is a very urgent task. In order to form an effective investment portfolio, the authors proposed asset diversification using cluster analysis, which implies grouping sample objects according to a set of specific features. The method under consideration involves five stages of asset valuation in order to consider those assets in a three-dimensional space, taking into account the specifics of the oil and gas business, including determination of individual asset trajectory, performing spatial approximation, calculating the clustering coefficient, ranking the resulting pairs
期刊介绍:
The objective of the International Journal of Engineering is to provide a forum for communication of information among the world''s scientific and technological community and Iranian scientists and engineers. This journal intends to be of interest and utility to researchers and practitioners in the academic, industrial and governmental sectors. All original research contributions of significant value in all areas of engineering discipline are welcome. This journal is published in two quarterly transactions. Transactions A (Basics) deals with the engineering fundamentals. Transactions B (Applications) are concerned with the application of engineering knowledge in the daily life of the human being and Transactions C (Aspects) - starting from January 2012 - emphasize on the main engineering aspects whose elaboration can yield knowledge and expertise that can equally serve all branches of engineering discipline. This journal will publish authoritative papers on theoretical and experimental researches and advanced applications embodying the results of extensive field, plant, laboratory or theoretical investigation or new interpretations of existing problems. It may also feature - when appropriate - research notes, technical notes, state-of-the-art survey type papers, short communications, letters to the editor, meeting schedules and conference announcements. The language of publication is English. Each paper should contain an abstract both in English and Persian. However, for the authors who are not familiar with Persian language, the publisher will prepare the translations. The abstracts should not exceed 250 words.
