The purpose of the article is to study methodological tools for a comprehensive assessment of the effectiveness of the functioning of territorial cluster structures and their impact on regional socio-economic systems. A meaningful analysis is applied to the consideration and characterization of instrumental techniques for assessing the effects of regional clusterization. The main groups of methods for assessing the effects of regional clusterization are quantitative, qualitative, and graphical. They include economic-statistical, economic-regionalistic, sociological, graphical and other methods of studying the impact of cluster associations on territorial socio-economic systems. Using the example of an Interregional Pumping Cluster and a Cluster of Manufacturers of Oil and Gas and Chemical Equipment, the dynamics of activity volumes, the number of jobs, tax and customs payments, and investments in fixed assets as factors of regional economic efficiency are studied. The method of determination was used to identify causal relationships and objective patterns between regional progress parameters and cluster functioning.&nbsp; The author&#39;s set of indicators for quantifying the effects of regional clustering was formed, including blocks of indicators characterizing business efficiency, technological, innovative, social, and marketing effectiveness. The directions of development of methods for measuring the impact of the creation and functioning of cluster structures on the development of regions are proposed.
