Abstract: IFPEN is one of the worlds’ most famous oil and gas research institutes. Its research direction is regarded by its peers as weather vane. The research institute is a reflection of France’s oil and gas research capacity. It has developed a set of god circulation mechanisms for transformation of its technological R&D achievements – initiating bilateral research programs with industrial partners, setting up research consortium to bring together several partners for maximization of resources and expertise, sponsoring or helping establishment of new companies, and launching training agencies to promote its achievements in connection with universities and research institutions in other countries. In addition to improvement of research capacity, the training platform has also laid potential foundation for extend its research results in other countries. As the world enters the post-petroleum era, IFPEN focuses on development of new research areas, such as carbon dioxide capture, new energy, bio-fuels and new-type engines.

摘要： 法国石油研究院是全球知名的油气科研院所之一，研究方向被视为业界的风向标，研发实力反映了法国油气领域科研的整体水平。该院在科研成果转化上形成了一套良性的循环机制，即，通过与业界合伙人合作研发、成立研发团体、创建全资子公司或持股、设立基金和提供技术及管理扶持中小企业等方式推广其科研成果，并通过成立培训机构，与其他国家的大学及科研院所联合开展培训等途径宣传其科研优势。培训平台除了能补充研究力量外，还为其在他国推广其科研成果打下了潜在基础。进入后石油时代以来，法国石油研究院注重新研究领域的开拓，积极投身二氧化碳捕集、新能源、生物燃料及新型发动机等的研发。
