Integrated Approach Towards Flow Assurance Solids Management
The University of Tulsa Flow Assurance and Cold Environments (TUFACE) project is a combination of two subprojects- The University of Tulsa Hydrate Flow Performance project (TUHFP) and The University of Tulsa Cold Flow Project (TUCFP). TUFACE is currently pushing boundaries in understanding flow assurance solids interaction.
About Us
TUFACE utilizes state-of-the-art facilities to push the boundaries in understanding flow assurance and solids interaction.
