High-strength low-density ceramic proppant is more suitable for the needs of society


High-strength low-density ceramic proppant is more suitable for the needs of society
As we all know, after fracturing oil and gas wells after its yield and production dynamically depending on fracture conductivity, fracture conductivity is fractured reservoir fluid conduction ability to  frac proppant  permeability and fracture bracing joints Wide product to represent, so the proppant type, physical properties and their influence on the distribution of crack fracture conductivity is an important factor. After a series of studies showed that: high-strength low-density ceramic proppant is more suitable for the needs of society.
Low-density high strength Ceramic proppant  performance requirements are as follows:
1, high-strength low-density ceramic proppant have sufficient compressive strength and wear resistance capacity can withstand the strong injection pressure and friction, and effectively support the artificial cracks.
2, high-strength low-density ceramic proppant particles of relatively lower density, ease of pumped underground.
3, high-strength low-density ceramic proppant particle diameter wells to meet various design requirements, is generally 0.4 ~ 0.8mm, roundness and sphericity of greater than 0.9, and the particle uniformity, smooth surface, the haze value should be less than 100 degrees in order to obtain the highest possible conductivity.
4, high-strength ceramic proppant density at a temperature of 200 ° C under the conditions of the  fracturing   fluid and reservoir fluid chemical reaction does not occur, an acid solubility of the maximum permissible value should be less than 7%.
