Quartz Sand Proppant
Quartz sand proppant, also known simply as frac sand or proppant, plays a crucial role in hydraulic fracturing (fracking) operations in the oil and gas industry.
What Are The Different Types Of Quartz Sand Proppant?
During the hydraulic fracturing process, clean fracturing fluid is initially pumped to create sufficiently wide fissures. Subsequently, a mixture of proppant and fracturing fluid, commonly referred to as slurry, is injected into these fractures.The primary design objective of proppants is to fill the fracture space, possessing enough strength to keep the fracture walls separated. This ensures the maintenance of a conductive pathway to the wellbore even after the completion of the treatment and potential leakage of fracturing fluid.
Types of Proppants for Hydraulic Fracturing
Proppants for hydraulic fracturing applications can be broadly categorized into two types: natural silica sand and synthetic ceramic proppants.
Fracturing quartz sand is a highly pure, granular material with hardness and toughness. Its main component is silica, and its particle size meets the requirements of fracturing operations. This kind of quartz sand has high density and compressive strength and is not easily washed away and worn by fluids.
What Is The Density Of Quartz Sand Proppant?
Most resin-coated proppants still have a sand base. However, their shape is smoother and more rounded, improving their performance compared to traditional fracking sand. In contrast to irregularly shaped natural sand proppants, they exhibit lower compaction in fractures, resulting in higher permeability compared to other types of proppants.
