Masoud Kalantari Selected for “Breakthrough Research of the Year” at the 2022 ADIPEC Awards
Xiaoli Li's PVT Lab Video
The Pressure, Volume, Temperature (PVT fluids lab in KU’s Chemical & Petroleum Engineering Department is used to study the properties of fluids under a wide range of pressure and temperature conditions. The lab works on both experimental measurement and theoretical modeling for phase and flow behavior of conventional and unconventional reservoir fluids (gas, oil and water).
