High-density Proppant

SEPPE High-density Proppant is a high-strength sintered bauxite ceramic proppant designed for hydraulic fracturing projects requiring higher closure stress resistance, stable fracture conductivity and reliable performance in deeper or high-pressure wells. This grade is supplied under the SEPREM HSP series and is suitable for applications where intermediate-density proppant may not provide sufficient crush resistance.

What Is High-density Proppant?

▸ High-density Proppant is a high-strength ceramic proppant used to keep hydraulic fractures open under higher closure stress conditions.

▸ The product provides higher apparent and bulk density than lightweight and intermediate-density proppants, making it suitable for deeper wells and more demanding pressure environments.

▸ SEPPE SEPREM HSP is designed for projects requiring controlled mesh distribution, high sphericity and roundness, strong crush resistance, conductivity support and high closure stress performance.

Key Product Characteristics

High-density Ceramic Design: Apparent density is approx. 3.35 g/cm³, absolute density is approx. 3.50 g/cm³, and bulk density is approx. 1.82-1.83 g/cm³.

Controlled Shape Quality: Typical sphericity and roundness are 0.9 × 0.9 by Krumbein and Sloss methods, supporting stable proppant packing and fracture flow capacity.

Crush Resistance: Crush-test data are available up to 15,000 psi across common mesh sizes, supporting technical selection for high closure-stress applications.

Conductivity & Permeability: Conductivity and permeability data are available across 16/30, 20/40, 30/50 and 40/70 sizes under different closure pressure points.

Export Packaging: Standard packing is 1.5 MT polypropylene bags, with packaging and shipment arrangements available according to order requirements.

FAQ

❓ How is High-density Proppant selected?

▸ Selection should be based on closure stress, conductivity target, reservoir pressure, well depth, mesh size, pumping design and customer purchase specification.

❓ How is it different from Intermediate-density Proppant?

▸ High-density Proppant has higher density and stronger pressure performance than intermediate-density proppant and is selected when closure stress requirements are more demanding.

❓ What mesh sizes are available?

▸ Common high-density proppant sizes include 16/30, 20/40, 30/50 and 40/70. Final availability should be confirmed according to order requirements.

❓ Can SEPPE provide TDS and test data?

▸ Yes. SEPPE can provide TDS, particle size distribution, density, crush test data, conductivity and permeability information, packing details and batch inspection records.

❓ Is third-party inspection available?

▸ Yes. Third-party inspection or project-specific testing can be arranged according to customer requirements and purchase specification.
