THE HISTORY OF TEXAS OILTECH LABORATORIES

The Texas OilTech Laboratories story started in 1985 with two young entrepreneurs. They recognized the need for a testing laboratory in Houston that would provide rapid turnaround time for a variety of testing services. These services where in high demand by a variety of industry professionals, such as crude oil gatherers, toll blenders, and others in the local petroleum and petrochemical section. 

As Chemical Engineers, they were able to capitalize on their knowledge and experience to provide top quality service and interpretation of the data. Located in West Houston, they were strategically located between the crude oil gatherers and the refineries. A driver could often drop off samples at the back door and have a cup of coffee while waiting for the analysis of a critical component, such as sulfur content, which might determine which refiner would purchase the load. 

Toll blenders also required fast analyses to determine a blend composition of a hydrocarbon containing several components, which might include end of run, twilight material, and recycled products. 

With time, the analytical capabilities of TOL continued to increase to meet the need of our clients. Today, they offer over 700 different test procedures for a whole range of gaseous and liquid fuels, natural and synthetic lubricants, and all types of specialty petroleum products. 

TOL recognized the need for analytical testing capabilities at job sites such as power plants and as such, began to offer this service first locally and then eventually worldwide. The first contract for overseas work was from Enron at the Dabhol Power Project in India. 

Today, on-site testing is a major part of TOL’s activity, as they visit new power plant sites all over the globe. They can now simultaneously support three crews for performance testing or plant commissioning or when fuel problems develop in the field. TOL has also developed a reputation as problem solvers. By combining a number of analytical techniques, they can perform investigative studies on problems related to lubricants, petrochemicals, and fuel spublicationss for gas turbines and diesel engines.
