Bibliography of Investment Costs, Operating Costs, and Related Economic Information for Fossil-Energy-Related Industries, January--December 1978

摘要

This report, covering the period January through December 1978, contains 169 abstracts of articles that deal with investment and operating costs, cost estimation methods and theory, developments in technology, and the status of construction projects. The abstracts are of articles from 22 journals. In addition, references are included to selected reports that have been issued through the National Technical Information Service, Springfield, VA. Most of the articles deal with investment and operating costs related to the development of fossil-energy sources. Coal-conversion and coal-mining costs are considered extremely important, since supplies of imported oil are uncertain and because costs of imported oil are rising. (ERA citation 04:048771)
