LSU Wins PetroBowl at ATCE 2019
LSU wins PetroBowl competition at Society of Petroleum Engineers Annual Technical Conference and Exposition (SPE ATCE) in Calgary, AB, Canada on Monday, September 30, 2019. Thirty-two teams from universities around the world qualified for the competition and travelled to Calgary to compete in this international competition, which pits teams against each other to test both technical and nontechnical knowledge of petroleum engineering concepts.
Last year, our LSU team placed 2nd overall at ATCE, which was held in Dallas, Tx. This years' team was made of graduate and undergraduate students. The winning team included Hope Asala, Fatima Yisa, Dayo Afekare, Andreas Michael, Trevor Quatroy, and Giuseppe Feo.
The team would like to thank the individual donors who contributed to their travel costs for the PetroBowl fund, and especially SafeKick for all the support. The department is very proud that this team, dubbed the "Dream Team" by their SPE colleagues, for this honor.
