Proppants? We Don't Need No Proppants
SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, 1997Abstract Fracturing treatments using treated water and very low proppant concentrations ("waterfracs") have proven to be surprisingly successful in the East Texas Cotton Valley sand. This paper presents field and production data from such treatments and compares them to conventional frac jobs.

Effect of Proppant Settling in the Wellbore on Proppant Distribution in Perforation Clusters
SPE Hydraulic Fracturing Technology Conference and Exhibition, 2023Abstract Our goal in this paper is to quantify the impact of proppant settling in the wellbore on the efficiency and distribution of proppant into perforation clusters. This phenomenon has been experimentally studied on the lab scale in the past but no field-scale simulations have been performed to quantify the amount of proppant settled

The Effect Of Various Proppants And Proppant Mixtures On Fracture Permeability
SPE Annual Fall Technical Conference and Exhibition, 1978Abstract One of the more important aspects of any fracturing treatment is the proppant that is used. In some instances, particularly in deep well applications, the type of proppant used can make a difference between the treatment being an economic success or failure.

Evaluating Flowback Proppants for Proppant Diagenesis in Shale
SPE European Formation Damage Conference & Exhibition, 2013Abstract The concept of proppant diagenesis has been discussed for several years. Detailed studies and analysis have been conducted to better understand hydrothermal degradation of alumina-based proppant, which has sometimes led to a significant loss of fracture conductivity.

In-situ Proppant: Beads, Microproppant, and Channelized-Proppant
Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition & Conference, 2019Abstract Tight oil reservoirs need stimulation in order to produce the trapped oil. The most common form of stimulation used by the oil and gas industry is hydraulic fracturing. Fracturing operations tend to create fractures including primary fractures and microfractures. The objective of this study is to develop a fracturing fluid which

Stability of Proppant Pack Reinforced with Fiber for Proppant Flowback Control
SPE Formation Damage Control Symposium, 1996Abstract A new method has been developed to prevent proppant flowback from a propped hydraulic fracture. The method consists of mixing the proppant with fiber elements before pumping the proppant into the fracture. The results of an experimental program, in which the goal was to better understand the mechanics of the reinforcing fiber on

Proppant Transport of Fracturing Gels is Influenced by Proppant Type
SPE Hydraulic Fracturing Technology Conference, 2009Abstract Fracturing gels are formulated to have a high viscosity sufficient to generate fracture geometry and transport proppant materials. Fracturing fluids are subjected to extensive QA/QC testing on high-temperature rheometers to ensure they have adequate viscosity to perform the intended task and break within a time frame suitable ...

Ultra-light weight proppant: Synthesis, characterization, and performance of new proppants
Journal of Natural Gas Science and Engineering, 2021Abstract One of the most important inputs for hydraulic fractures is the proppant. Although silica, ceramic, resin coated sands are used, the ultra-light weight proppants are preferred in some applications since they reduce settling, require low fluid viscosity to transport and allow an increased propped length.
