Join TUPDP

Tulsa University Paraffin Deposition Projects (TUPDP) is a cooperative industry-university research group supported by several oil and gas production, transmission, consulting, and service member companies from various countries. The group was formed in 1995 as a Joint Industry Project (JIP), to conduct applied research on paraffin deposition problems encountered by the member companies. The JIP format was changed to Consortium format in 2000 with a three-year revolving business plan or phase.

Research is supported by annual membership fees. The current three-year cycle (Phase VII) started in April 2019. Currently, TUPDP has eight members. The membership fee for Phase VII is $195,000, or $65,000 per year. For technical specifics regarding research during Phase VI, please see the Phase VII scope of work.
