Abstract: Iran oil and gas sector is one of the most important industries in this country. In upstream branch of this sector, Iran development programs of oil and gas fields (IDPOGF) include very costly and complex programs. Hence, the relevant project/program managers need to have a clear understanding of potential risk factors and risks as well as their impacts. In this study, under a general view to the IDPOGF, identification and analysis of the relevant risks are done. At the identification step, through organising a focus group, risk categories are recognised, risks are identified, and a risk breakdown structure (RBS) is constructed. In the analysis step, three probability and impact (PI) matrices are built, each one for one of the project constraints, i.e., cost-time quality (CTQ), then risk scores and risk ranks are determined. Finally, some registers of the IDPOGF entitled top-ten list of risk items are provided. Such lists could be useful for any future IDPOGF or similar/relative programs.
