Information mission
Political decision-makers, the scientific community, the media, the general public: IFP aims to make its knowledge accessible to all. Our objective is to provide precise and objective information to enable as many people as possible to have a better understanding of the energy issues of the 21st century.
An independent expertise center, supporting public policies and working to benefit citizens
IFP boasts exceptional documentary resources and a unique capital of scientific, technical and economic knowledge gleaned over several decades of research and industrial successes.
The fields of energy and the environment will be subject to significant change. IFP strives to provide as many people as possible with the necessary information for a better understanding of this century’s major challenges:
- public authorities, by putting our independent expertise (scientific, technical, economic and industrial) at their service so they can make the best choices for each field of energy,
- opinion leaders, and the media in particular,
- the general public, by making a set of independent and objective analyses and informative resources accessible. They enable all concerned to form their own opinions on the major challenges to come in the fields of energy, transport and the environment,
- young people, by proactively contributing to awareness-raising initiatives concerning scientific education and the world of research.
The dissemination of scientific knowledge to researchers and professional spheres
IFP contributes to France’s international scientific and technical influence by making its research work known and accessible to professional spheres worldwide.
Knowledge dissemination is particularly achieved through:
- a strong policy for the publication of articles in journals giving them the best impact,
- papers during the most eminent conferences,
- an active presence in scientific associations and the most influential networks,
- the publication of the Oil & Gas Science and Technology scientific journal,
- published works,
- the organization of seminars and International Conferences.
