This dissertation develops studies and mathematical methods for the managerial analysis of situations involving the interrelations of the oil and gas network facilities and the petrochemical industry in Saudi Arabia. The first part develops a goal programming model to study the impact of crude oil develops a goal programming model to study the impact of crude oil production on the petrochemical industry. The second part is concerned with transforming a linear work model, thus making the model amenable to a network code. The third part develops a framework for allocation of an insufficient supply of methane for different sectors of the economy. The three combine to form the decision analysis or decision support system, which is the objective of the dissertation.
