Silica sand for fracturing is made from natural silica sand through screening, processing, and purification, aiming to obtain petroleum proppants with particle size and impurity content that meet the requirements of the original ore. The following will discuss a series of solutions and processes, including the role of oil proppants, the processing technology of silica sand for fracturing, as well as process equipment and washing tail water treatment, to improve the quality of silica sand for oil fracturing.
Petroleum proppant performance requirements
1. The proppant must have strong compressive strength and wear resistance to effectively support artificial fractures.
2. The density must meet the requirements and be easy to pump into the well, so the relative density must be low.
3. Under the condition of 200℃, it does not react chemically with other substances.
