The Tulsa University Delayed Coking Project (TUDCP) is located on the research campus of the University of Tulsa. Since the start of the project in 1999, TUDCP has developed much of the technology currently used in the study of delayed coking. TUDCP currently operates ten state-of-the-art experimental test facilities.
