Abstract: Combustible ice (natural gas hydrate) is a kind of clean and efficient energy. With the increasing demand for natural gas in the world, all countries pay more and more attention to the development of combustible ice. Russia has rich combustible ice resources, and its combustible ice development level affects the natural gas supply and demand relation between China and Russia. In order to carry out follow-up and provide the reference, the combustible ice research & development history, reserves & distribution and research & development institutions in Russia were introduced. Then, Russia's current progress of combustible ice technology, following mining plan and recent development planning were expounded. And the effects of China's successful combustible ice production test on Russia and the measures what Russia took correspondingly were analyzed. Finally, it was suggested that China shall cooperate with Russia in the field of combustible ice to speed up the development process of combustible ice and improve the situation of natural gas shortage in China.
