Abstract
This paper aims to determine the appropiate evaluation of a Colombian liquid fuel distribution project using the real option evaluation methodology, through a multi-option approach. Thus, each real option generated by the proposed project under study is determined and the additional perceived value is estimated by elements such as the presence of the occurrence risk of contingent events, volatility and the existing risk on cash flows. Using real options methodology made it possible to estimate an additional value to the project in a more accurate manner compared to the value that would have been obtained applying the traditional methodology of discounted cash flow. In addition, the proper use of this methodology made it possible to determine which decisions must be taken throughout the execution of the project. This methodology allows the improvement of the financial decision making within a particular context, enriched by an analysis that goes beyond the traditional valuation model. Thus, it is intended to expand the application range to other economic sectors in which there is little research
