Ceramic Proppants: A Specialized Alternative to Frac Sand
Greater Crush Strength. As well bores get deeper, the pressure on proppants gets higher, and frac sand is not always up to the task. Ceramic proppants can withstand a much greater crush strength than traditional frac sand products – up to 10,000 psi.¹ This allows drillers to access much deeper shale formations. Higher Conductivity
