Paper Number: SPE-223518-MS
... Abstract The main objective is to present a new crush testing method which, in contrast to the American Petroleum Institute (API) Crush Test, determines the proppant's ability to maintain its original size at specific applied pressures. This new crush test provides a better methodology...

... not always align with the targeted stimulation zones. Consequently, this can result in leaving many created fractures inadequately propped, as much of the injected proppants settle near the wellbore or are lost in the overtreated fractures. To understand maximizing the fracture-propped area and the transport...

Paper Number: SPE-223546-MS
... Abstract The objective of this work is to estimate proppant pack permeability from crush data utilizing a revised Kozeny-Carman equation. The proposed theoretical model, developed from experimental data, seeks to provide a reliable method for evaluating and selecting proppants. Permeability...

Paper presented at the SPE Hydraulic Fracturing Technology Conference and Exhibition, February 4–6, 2025
Paper Number: SPE-223549-MS
... Abstract Improving output from unconventional oil and gas reserves requires the appropriate proppant and chemicals not only to facilitate fracture creation but also to reduce damage to both the proppant pack and the reservoir itself. The interactions between polyacrylamides (PAMs) used...
