Abstract

This study examines the relationship between capital structure and financial performance within the oil and gas sector in the Sultanate of Oman, focusing on companies listed on the Ministry of Energy and Minerals over the period of 2021-2023. The research investigates how different capital structure components, such as debt-to-equity ratio, leverage, and debt maturity, influence various financial performance indicators, including profitability, liquidity, and shareholder value. The study aims at offering insights into the best capital structure strategies for oil and gas firms in Oman to improve their financial performance and sustainable growth using quantitative analysis methodologies, such as regression analysis and financial ratio analysis. It is anticipated that the research’s conclusions will add to the body of knowledge already available on capital structure and financial performance, with important ramifications for investors, financial managers, legislators, and other industry participants in Oman’s oil and gas sector and beyond.
