Re: Obscure 41 Custom Modules: SNEAP Message #2 Posted by Philippe Lasnier on 28 June 2011, 9:07 a.m., in response to message #1 by Ángel Martin
Hi Ángel,
SNEAP would most probably stand for Société Nationale Elf-Aquitaine Production, a major petrol company in France. I thought the name was familiar - that's because I spent a 6 month placement in one of their research centre (the only one? I can't recall) during my engineering degree in the 1980's.
The place was Boussens, in the foothills of the Pyrenées, not far from Toulouse. Lovely.
Anyway, SNEAP as a name doesn't exist anymore, although the research centre may still be there in one form or another (the SNEA of SNEAP is now ELF Aquitaine as part of TotalFinaElf).
I couldn't possibly speculate on what would be inside the 41 module, but the fact that it would be full of engineering (including petroleum) programs sounds exactly right.
All the best,
Philippe
