LARS is large volume experimental apparatus for the investigation of anthropogenic induces and natural occurring reservoir processes under simulated in situ conditions in the lab. The sediment sample has a diameter of 0.45 m and a length of 1.35 m. This large sample allows the installation of "model wells" for the injection and production of pore fluids as well as the installation of different sensors to monitor various physical parameters during an experiment.
