Annotation: The development of a complex for the development of coalbed methane resources largely depends on the application of sound methods and models for making economic, organizational and managerial decisions. Projects for the exploitation of gas-bearing coal seams are characterized by lower revenue and higher costs compared to projects for the extraction of gas from traditional deposits. Activities involving comprehensive mine degassing and industrial coalbed methane extraction through surface wells in Russia remain at the experimental stage and are associated with high risks. Related to this is the need to form a sound approach to the analysis of risk factors in the implementation of strategic plans for sustainable development. The article presents recommendations on the formation of methodological approaches to the identification and ranking of risks of implementing a two-stage strategy for the development of coalbed methane resources. The study ranked risks by the nature of their impact on the implementation of the strategy into the following groups: failure to implement the strategy; incomplete achievement of goals; exceeding the deadline for achieving the expected result; exceeding the cost of achieving the expected result. The results of the analysis made it possible to identify the main risks at each stage of the strategy implementation and to carry out their qualitative and quantitative description, as well as to provide ways to respond to the occurrence of risks. The article also suggests cost-benefit ratios for participants in coalbed methane resource development projects, the implementation of which is mandatory for the implementation of the strategy and allows the interests of the state and companies to be coordinated. The developed methodological approaches expand the understanding of important aspects of the methodology for analyzing the impact of risk factors on the implementation of strategic plans for sustainable development and can be used to determine the economic sustainability of coalbed methane extraction and use projects.
