Pickering of investment banker Simmons & Company International yesterday told an audience of offshore industry leaders that exploration and production spending by 31 public oil companies is estimated to be $39.9 billion in 1999, some 31% less than 1998. These same companies spent some $57.9 billion in 1998.

Emergency preparedness could cut shipowners' insurance premiums With a better understanding of the consequences of ship accidents, gained through a formal computer modeling program of a ship's structural behaviour in a given situation, owners and operators could follow a risk reduction path. This emergency preparedness could be linked to the level of insurance premiums, says Dr David Aldwinckle, manager of Lloyd's Register Ship Emergency Response Service (LR SERS).

L'OTAN mise sur la destruction de l'infrastructure de transport yougoslave L'OTAN a intensifié l'offensive aérienne sur des cibles stratégiques en Yougoslavie et au Kosovo ces derniers jours. Pas moins de 80 attaques ont été exécutées durant les quatre derniers jours. Des dépots de pétrole, des aéroports, des gares et des ponts sur le Danube ont été détruits ou endommagés. La navigation électronique gagne sans cesse en importance Wivina Demeester, la ministre flamande des Finances, du Budget et de la Santé remettra symboliquement un 500e programme de navigation à un entrepreneur fluvial à bord du "Seastar" en fin de mois. La redevance d'utilisation de l'infrastructure à l'agenda du Parlement européen Mardi prochain à Strasbourg, le Parlement européen se penchera sur les propositions de la Commission européenne concernant une rétribution équitable pour l'utilisation de l'infrastructure par le secteur du transport. Les propositions sont basées sur le Livre Blanc du commissaire européen aux Transports Neil Kinnock, qui a élaboré un cadre communautaire pour le calcul des coûts liés à l'utilisation de l'infrastructure de transport dans l'UE. L'importance économique de l'A4 n'impressionne pas la ministre néerlandaise du Transport La demande d'une décision rapide en ce qui concerne l'achèvement de l'A4 Midden-Delftland émanant des banques et d'un consortium n'impressionne guère la ministre néerlandaise du Transport Tineke Netelenbos. La liaison revête une importance telle pour le port de Rotterdam, que les entreprises sont prêtes à investir à condition que le projet soit co-financé par le ministère du Transport et que le péage ou des bandes payantes soient introduits.
