To achieve this goal, the tasks of decomposition of the general production process into separate technological stages, assessing their current state, factors and development features are solved. On the basis of the studies carried out, the need to increase the competitiveness of the gas industry as a priority in the segment of geological exploration, production in difficult mining, geological and climatic conditions, and the comprehensive development of gas chemistry with the manufacturing of liquid high-value-added products has been identified. The result of the work is scientifically grounded recommendations on the formation of a strategy for the development of the Russian gas industry. The results of the work can be used in the formation of state programs for the development of the gas industry, as well as improving the competitiveness of the Russian economy as a whole.
