The risks of shortages for some crucial metals and uncertainty about the land-based reserves of several others justify the search to diversify our sources of supply and investigate their potential. Mineral resources in the deep sea are attracting increasing interest with the progressive discovery of various forms of ores. France possesses areas of deep seafloor in the three oceans, as well as world-class human and technological resources and know-how, resulting from over 40 years of experience. This study takes stock of knowledge about mineralisations and associated metals, technologies for exploring and exploiting them, biodiversity and the impacts on the deep environment and the partnerships which are vital for France and Europe. This information will be useful for decision-makers in drawing up strategies, defining research and development programmes and in enhancing and developing commercial utilizations for these high-potential resources.

The ocean is a huge reservoir of renewable energy sources, such as wind, currents, tides, waves, marine biomass, thermal energy, osmotic power, and so on. Like other maritime nations in Europe, France enjoys significant potential to develop these energy sources, especially overseas. In March 2007, Ifremer's chairman launched a prospective foresight study on these energies for the time horizon of 2030. With support from the Futuribles consulting group, twenty French partners representing the main stakeholders in the sector carried out this work. Their objective was to identify the technologies, specify the socio-economic prerequisites for them to emerge and be competitive and assess their respective impacts on power sources and the environment. What was learned from this study can be applied well beyond France, at a time when a European maritime strategy is taking shape.

La quatrième de couv. indique : "Il couvre 70 % de la surface du globe, régule en grande partie le climat de la Terre et abrite une multitude d'espèces dont de très nombreuses sont encore à découvrir. L'océan joue un rôle majeur dans le fonctionnement de la vie sur Terre. Avec le changement global, ont émergé de multiples enjeux dont les conséquences à venir engagent toute l'humanité. Il s'agit dans ce livre de mieux comprendre ce qu'est l'océan, dans toute son étendue, sa profondeur et sa complexité, tant du point de vue physique que biologique, de ses interactions que de ses dynamiques. Pour l'explorer, de nombreux outils, infrastructures et approches originales sont développés pour obtenir les données et les informations indispensables à une meilleure connaissance. L'histoire montre l'évolution des techniques et des représentations qui lient les communautés humaines aux océans et la diversité des usages qu'elles en font. Considéré comme ressource, service ou enjeu de territoire, l'océan est essentiel, mais vulnérable. De multiples risques lui sont associés, de la submersion à la pollution, et leur gestion nécessite d'être anticipée face à l'augmentation des activités humaines. Ainsi se pose la question de l'avenir de l'océan, cet espace considéré souvent comme infini et illimité, qualifié de géostratégie par les uns et de bien commun par d'autres. Avec ses 135 articles, cet ouvrage, qui mobilise près de 160 chercheurs et spécialistes, est un ouvrage de référence. Il vient éclairer les enjeux actuels liés à l'océan et en résonnance avec les objectifs du développement durable de l'ONU. Comprendre et proposer des solutions, telle est son intention."
