Hambone Lesson - Danny Knicely & Megan Downes Breakingviews: Indulging in Goldman compensation Du pétrole et du gaz aux plastiques (audio)
Gaz naturel et pétrole et tous les hydrocarbures en général - sont des matières premières familières, que nous associons d'emblée à la production d'énergie : centrales électriques, carburants automobiles, ainsi que chauffage domestique au gaz et au fioul. Mais en parallèle de cet emploi en tant que combustibles, ces ressources naturelles sont les matières premières de base de la pétrochimie, qui fournit d'innombrables matériaux synthétiques aujourd'hui indispensables à notre La construction d'une usine : du virtuel au réel (audio)
Les projets d'usines pétrochimiques et de plateformes actuellement en cours de développement dans le monde sollicitent de façon de plus en plus exigeante les capacités des sociétés d'ingénierie.
