- to reveal the specifics of structural changes which take place in leading transnational and national oil and gas companies in the context of their transition to organizational and legal forms of cooperation which combine elements of competition and cooperation;
- to develop a methodology for the empirical analysis of the effectiveness of integration transactions in the retrospective period, which will allow the most objective assessment of the effectiveness of mergers and acquisitions from the perspective of selecting the right goals, directions of action and achieving them in terms of creating intangible and high-tech assets;
- to identify basic methods of retrospective evaluation of integration processes and general trends which characterize dynamics of effectiveness of transnational and national transactions in the industry;
