The critical criteria for supplier selection in the O&amp;G sector have been reviewed in the literature and validated by experts actively working in the field. Initially, the Fuzzy AHP technique determines criterion weights and ranks suppliers. Subsequently, the Fuzzy TOPSIS approach is applied to rank prospective suppliers identified through objective evaluation. The findings show the capability of the utilized approaches in supplier selection procedure in O&amp;G industry.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</abstract>
