Publisher Note

François Lucchesi's photographs testify with sensitivity and mischief to his daily work and that of his colleagues, at the oil port of Fos-sur-Mer in the Bouches-du-Rhône. Among the spray and gas vapors, under the icy mistral or the crushing heat, François Lucchesi was able to capture the lives of oil workers, day and night, all year round. Often misunderstood - while black gold is still essential to the life of the country -, even hidden, because of the occupational diseases that decimate them, their work is now recognized thanks to this upublished book.
Only an oil worker could transmit such a living memory.
