Louisiana State University PERTT Lab (Petroleum Engineering Research and Technology Transfer Lab) is an industrial-scale facility, having full-scale equipment and instrumentation for conducting research related to petroleum technology. PERTT originally assembled most of this equipment for blowout prevention and well control research and training activities. Today, we continue building on the legacy of drilling instruction and research excellence while expanding into production and surface operations teaching and research. The PERTT laboratory's large but flexible infrastructure allows us to rapidly move to meet the demands of a diverse petroleum industry.
