#2.What is proppant used for? Proppant is used to keep the fractures open after the frac job is complete. Proppant provides a high-conductivity pathway for hydrocarbons to flow from the reservoir to the well. After the frac job is completed, proppant prevents the fractures from closing due to overburden pressure What is proppant material? Proppant is a gritty material with uniformly sized particles that is mixed in with fracturing fluid during the hydraulic fracturing (fracking) process to hold open fractures made in the ground. There are a variety of different types of proppant, including naturally occurring sand and man-made proppants.
