888,95 kr. La France, depuis 1973, a fait de grands e./forts pour reduire sa dependance energetique~' tlle en fera plus encore a l'avenir et il n 'est pas hors de portee, dans le long terme, de couvrir la moitie de nos besoins par la production nationale d'energie. Nous ny parviendrons cependant que par de vastes programmes technologiques, des investissements accrus - et il nous faudra encore importer la moitie de notre energie, la quasi totalite du petrole necessaire. L 'economie franfaise, nos entreprises, l'ensemble de leurs personneIs, devront donc plus que jamais « communiquer» avec ceux qui, partout dans le monde, ont les memes ambitions. C'etait devancer l'evenement que de lance" en 1971 un dictionnaire anglais-franfais des termes petroliers,' c'est a nouveau construire l'avenir que de publier cette seconde edition dont le vaste champ, technique, economique, financier, juridique, repond si bien aux besoins de lecteurs qui n 'appartiennent pas a la seule profession petroliere. Qu 'il me soit permis d'en feliciter les auteurs, en soulignant le soin extreme qu 'ils ont mis a donner a chaque terme son exacte equivalence dans notre langue. F. de Wissocq Avant-Propos A l'origine, au cours des annees 50 et 60, Fabio Zubini avait remge un lexique des termes petroliers anglais interessant surtout le raffinage et la chimie du petroie. Le bon accueil reserve a cet ouvrage, en italien d'abord (1969), puis a sa version fran~aise (1971), conduisit finalement a « remettre l'ouvrage sur le metier ».

- A report prepared for the Directorate-General for Industrial and Technological Affairs and for the Environment and Consumer Protection Service of the European Communities by l'Association Europeenne Oceanique
849,95 kr. Based on a unique industrial European membership, the European Oceanic Association, "non-profit Association has as its object the pooling of talents, resources and ex perience in the marine field with the purpose of promoting in Europe a concentration of efforts to foster the study and exploration of the seas in the light of their industrial exploitation" (articZe 2 of the statutes). The major concern of protecting the marine environment, whilst at the same time taking into consideration the present constraints on economic and industrial develop ment, has led the European Oceanic Association to establish constructive contacts with the Commission of European Communities. Following an interview in November 1972 with leading representatives of the Commission of European Communities and with the heads of the Environment and Consumer Pro tection Service, contacts were established which resulted, in May 1973, in the signing of a contract for studies between the Commission of European Communities and the European Oceanic Association. The essential point of the contract granted to the Associa tion was: " a contribution to the study of a preventative technology with the aim of arresting the deterioration of the marine environment by limiting and controlling present and future wastes". As a result of working groups between interested members of the Association, an area of study was chosen, comprising: - specific subjects relative to polluting elements or groups of elements, l.e: · chromium, · cadmium-zinc, · cyano-metallic compounds; - more general studies concerning monitoring systems; - specific and general recommendations.
