Transcript Versaprop - Saint-Gobain Proppants

Versaprop
Increased Value
Increased Strength
Increased Profitability
Versaprop
• Higher Conductivity per $
– 25% to 37% more conductivity
• Greater Strength
– Only 1.4% Crush at 7,500 psi
• Increased Productivity
– More conductivity means increased effective
fracture half-lengths

Versaprop
A medium density (3.2 g/cc) ceramic
proppant which through grain size and
strength provides increased conductivity
(25% - 37%) at competitive prices to lightweight economic ceramic proppants.
• A proppant for the widest range of application
• High conductivity at low stresses
• High conductivity and strength at high stresses
