IIEDP was created as part of MGIMO University in February 2000 within the framework of the Cooperation agreement between MGIMO and the International Oil and Gas Sector Academy. The institute unified two most vital issues of the 21st century – diplomacy and energy. The institute was the first in Russia to organize multi-level study programs in energy policy and geopolitics. It was the first Russian institute training internationally focused experts for a certain domain – oil and gas sector.

The Council comprises the Heads of Administration of ten major oil, gas and coal regions of Russia, and presidents of more than thirty leading oil, gas and energy companies.
