Corrosion engineers are most frequently found working in the energy industry, often with hydroelectric plants that rely on underwater turbines. They are also employed by oil companies who do offshore platform drilling in corrosive saltwater conditions. They can even be found working in mining and waste management professions. Whatever the industry, a corrosion engineer typically works to collect data via reports, inspections, and measurements to determine the speed and spread of corrosion and rust onset on metal parts and structures. 3, record 3, English, - corrosion%20engineer

OSPAR is the mechanism by which fifteen governments of the western coasts and catchments of Europe, together with the European Union, cooperate to protect the marine environment of the North-East Atlantic. It started in 1972 with the Oslo Convention against dumping. It was broadened to cover land-based sources and the offshore industry by the Paris Convention of 1974. These two conventions were unified, up-dated and extended by the 1992 OSPAR Convention.... The fifteen governments are Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germay, Iceland, Ireland, Luxembourg, The Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom. Finland [is not included but was] historically... involved...

Cette coopération a débuté en 1972 avec la Convention d’Oslo sur les immersions. Son champ a été étendu aux pollutions d’origine tellurique et à l’industrie pétrolière par la Convention de Paris en 1974. Enfin, ces deux conventions ont été unifiées, mises à jour et étendues par la Convention OSPAR en 1992. La nouvelle annexe sur la biodiversité et les écosystèmes a été adoptée en 1998 pour couvrir les activités humaines non-polluantes qui peuvent avoir un effet négatif sur la mer. 1, record 10, French, - Commission%20OSPAR
