| Creator Name | Public Relations Department, later Corporate Communications, of Total. |
| Description | Staff magazine of Total, covering all offshore and onshore facilities in which the company had an interest. The contents regularly included company news; updates on ongoing products; interviews with different managers and heads of department; features about staff members' achievements outside their work; and staff family announcements. It was superseded by 'Courier North' in 2001. Issues 32 on are in colour.
There were 69 issues, excluding a handful of special editions. The archive is currently missing issues 16, 17, 29 and 68. As the special editions were by nature published sporadically and fell outside the usual numbering system, it is not possible to determine if there are any missing. |
| Accruals | None anticipated, although some of the 'missing' issues may be acquired at a later date. |
| Arrangement | Chronologically. |
