The Center for Midstream Management and Science ("Midstream Center" or "Center") was established and funded by the Texas legislature in late 2019 to serve as a bridge between Lamar University and the midstream industry, which includes:
Lamar University is located in Beaumont, Texas in the middle of one of the largest and most important transportation, storage, refining, and petrochemical complexes in the world and has been graduating as many as 300 engineers each year in service of this huge industry for generations.
The Midstream Center is the only academic organization focused solely on the midstream industry. Its general mission is to work in partnership with the midstream industry with the objective of identifying and solving industry operational problems and advancing technologies impacting the midstream sector.
Since our formation in September 2019, we have funded seed capital for internal midstream-centric applied research projects totaling $2.1 million.
Your donation will assist with professional development and community engagement.
The mission of the Center for Midstream Management and Science is to establish and grow a cross-discipline industry/university collaboration that ties breakthroughs in upstream access to oil and gas to the downstream advances in refining that have improved capacity, environmental compliance, and safety.
