DeepL or
Google Translate, is a useful starting point for translations, but translators must revise errors as necessary and confirm that the translation is accurate, rather than simply copy-pasting machine-translated text into the English Wikipedia.
Do not translate text that appears unreliable or low-quality. If possible, verify the text with references provided in the foreign-language article.

The IFP Energies nouvelles (IFPEN) also known as French Institute of Petroleum (in French: Institut Français du Pétrole, IFP) is a public research organisation in France founded in 1944[1] as Institute of Oil, Fuels and Lubricants (Institut du pétrole, des carburants et des lubrifiants).
The Institute is based at Rueil-Malmaison near Paris, and has sites near Lyon and at Pau. As of 2004[update], it had 1729 employees, a budget of 253 million euros, and was responsible for a post-graduate training centre, IFP School (also known as the ENSPM - École Nationale Supérieure du Pétrole et des Moteurs), and an extensive industrial training programme, IFP Training.
IFPEN has designed several methods to assess the oil potential of a sedimentary rock, amongst others, the Rock-Eval Pyrolysis technique using a standardized pyrolysis apparatus. This technique is used worldwide amongst petroleum companies to compare their results in the same way.
