... Electric fracturing or "Efrac" capacity in the USA has doubled since 2019, around 15% of the overall fracturing capacity, 18M hydraulic horsepower (hhp), today is electric; it's expected that by 2030 Efrac will double to 30%. This paper presents the typical configuration and primary components...

The initial model was used to investigate the effects of various injection parameters on proppant distribution, whereas this scaled-up model was used to evaluate the effect of perforation orientation and configuration on the proppant distribution. Both...
