Oil-contaminated soils resulted from drilling activities can cause significant damages to the environment, especially for living organisms. Treatment and management of these soils are the necessity for environmental protection. The present study investigates the field study of seven oil-contaminated soils treated by different stabilization/solidification (S/S) methods, and the selection of the best treated site and treatment method. In this study, first, the ratios of consumed binders to the contaminated soils (w/w) and the treatment times for each unit of treated soils were evaluated. The ratios of consumed binders to the contaminated soils were between 6 and 10% and the treatment times for each unit of treated soils were between 4.1 and 18.5 min/m³. Physicochemical characteristics of treated soils were also determined. Although S/S methods didn’t change the water content of treated soils, they increased the porosity of soils. Unexpectedly, the cement-based S/S methods didn’t increase the pH of the treated soils. The highest and the lowest leaching of petroleum hydrocarbons was belonging to S/S using diatomaceous earth (DE) and the combination of Portland cement, sodium silicate and DE (CS-DE), respectively. The best acid neutralization capacity was obtained for soils treated using the combination of Portland cement and sodium silicate (CS). Based on the best-worst multi-criteria decision-making method (BWM-MCDM), the soils treated using CS-DE was select as the best. The BWM-MCDM can be used as an effective tool for the selection of the best alternative in all areas of environmental decontamination.
