Purpose: the aim of the thesis – analyze the development of the oil and gas sector of the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous District and assess the influence exerted by them on the socio-economic and environmental dynamics of the region.Methods: the methodological foundations of the research are based on modeling scenarios, analysis of open statistical sources, projected estimates and calculations, projected methods. As open statistical sources were used the data of the official statistics, analytical materials of international organizations, federal and regional authorities.Results: the main result of the research is the author's methodology for assessing regional effects arising from the implementation of investment projects. Based on the created methodology, regional effects resulting from the implementation of investment projects in the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous District were identified, according to the analysis of which developed recommendations to strengthen their localization in the region.Conclusions and Relevance: during the analyzed period the carried out calculations of regional effects showed that the positive direct effects emerge in the economic sector only while indirect ones are too weak in the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous District. In these conditions, the regional authorities face the problem to strengthen the localization of direct and indirect effects in the region, because the investment projects can be a locomotive for the development of the region’s prosperity.
