The paper presents the main provisions of the methodology for identifying vulnerable elements in the fuel and energy complex, which is studied as a set of industry critical energy infrastructures. This methodology is based on the use of industry models system in the fuel and energy sector, on the analysis of the interconnected critical energy infrastructure's work in normal functioning and during emergency situations. The paper proposes a schematic diagram for the formation of vulnerable elements list for fuel and energy complex based on critical elements of industries. The scheme of work with a two-level system of models is given. The results of testing the methodology and developed models are presented (illustrative example).
