Abstract

In line with the losses brought about by the recent pandemic of the new coronavirus, the oil market, as well as other segments, has been facing economic difficulties to recover. Seeking to bring a practical and efficient strategy to the corporate environment, in this area, this study demonstrates a new multi-criteria method based on multi-objectives, capable of calculating the importance of each criterion, to encourage more assertive and objective decision-making to evaluate different situations in the oil industry, such as the application of resources, investments and other strategies. As a case study, a group of AHTS (Anchor Handling Tug Supply) vessels was used to supply offshore platforms and application of the CRITIC-MOORA-3N method, which allows a logical analysis of the relevant criteria and presents an objective solution, as result for the scenario that applies.
