Experimental Study of Self-aggregating Proppants: New Approaches to Proppant Flowback Control [PDF]
The Open Petroleum Engineering Journal, 2016 Due to the high rate of proppant flowback after hydraulic fracturing stimulations, surface modified quartz sand proppants with excellent proppant flowback control abilities, self-aggregating proppants, were prepared. These surface modified proppants can aggregate together spontaneously and form a proppant column in water based liquid environment ...
