Ceramic proppant industry market concentration is low

China's ceramic proppant industry market concentration is low at present, China's ceramic proppant manufacturing enterprises large enterprises small, mostly small-scale manufacturers, has a monopoly position in the leading brands of very few on the market monopoly is not proppants for hydraulic fracturing strong enough. Market structure of ceramic proppant industry presents a low degree of concentration conditions, product diversification gradually increased. The first step is to enterprises with more than 100 million yuan in annual sales, a small number of such enterprises; second step is the annual sales of between 10 million yuan to 1 billion business, a relatively large number of medium-sized firms, accounting about 25% of the total number ceramic proppants of enterprises; while the largest number of 10 million yuan below the small-scale enterprises, we can say plenty of room for market growth, companies with good prospects. Third, the ceramic proppant industry technology development of China at present, China fired ceramic kiln incineration process commonly used to prepare material its matching, sludge dewatering, drying, resin coated proppant grinding, kiln into a ball, the kiln into a ball fired thermal screening classification, control of raw materials testing, finished product to detect and adapt to their firing technology, equipment, automation and control, has mature experience.

International ceramic proppant industry trends analysis

Ceramic proppant industry, the major countries of the World ceramic proppant market consumption scale, will continue to remain at around 10 million tons, or a slight increase in the period. Currently, resin coated ceramic proppant the world's leading producer of ceramic proppant ten are China, Japan, the United States, Russia, Ukraine, Germany, Italy, England, France, Argentina. Among them, China, the United States, Russia, the main products to domestic consumption; Britain, France and export roughly; other countries, mostly ceramic proppant exporter, exports accounted for about 30% of their total output to 70%. Global ceramic proppant market by region can be divided into North America, Europe, Japan, China, Asia-Pacific (excluding Japan and china proppant) and other five major regional markets.International ceramic proppant industry trends analysis in North America, Europe and Asia has been the world's leading petrochemical market production and consumption areas, since the 1980s, so far, has been the world's petrochemical industry structure adjustment occurs, the Western countries have been committed in high-tech development, energy-intensive and labor-intensive production of bulk chemical products Ceramic proppants industry gradually, transferred from Western Europe to North America, Asia Pacific and the Middle East, the proportion of the world petrochemical market in North America and Western Europe has thus decreased; recent years, As the market, trade, prices and other factors, particularly in Europe and stringent environmental requirements, forcing Western countries tighten their petrochemical production, and turn to the resources of the country or have the majority of markets in developing countries invest and build factories and joint ventures set up factories.
