This paper presents legal contributions to the technical analysis of the decommissioning stages of the oil industry. We seek to contribute to decision-making based on multicriteria analysis about the options for uninstalling specific equipment in the production chain: subsea equipment. The objective is to demonstrate that there is legal predictability supported by the technical aspect for the options that are possible in each case. The methodology used was a literary revision combined with a national and international legislative analysis that allowed the presentation of the final conclusion. The comparison between international norms, as well as Brazilian legislation, in particular the national solid waste policy, demonstrated the legality of the application of multicriteria analysis to base the decisions by the companies, as well as the inspection agencies.
