API Certificated Fracturing Ceramic Proppant

What Is API Certificated Fracturing Ceramic Proppant?

▸ API Certificated Fracturing Ceramic Proppant is an intermediate-strength ceramic proppant in the SEPROP ISP series, used to keep hydraulic fractures open after fracturing pressure is released.

▸ This product is positioned around ISP 16/20, 20/40, 30/50, with intermediate-density ceramic performance for projects requiring stronger crush resistance than lightweight proppant.

▸ It is suitable for hydraulic fracturing projects where controlled mesh distribution, high sphericity and roundness, conductivity support and balanced density-strength performance are required.

Key Performance Characteristics

▸ API-Oriented Quality Documentation: Positioned for customers requiring API/ISO-oriented test review, batch documentation and inspection support.

▸ Intermediate-density Ceramic Design: Apparent density is approx. 3.25-3.26 g/cm³, absolute density is approx. 3.40 g/cm³, and bulk density is approx. 1.74-1.75 g/cm³.

▸ 12,500 psi Class: Crush-test data can be reviewed up to 12,500 psi according to mesh size and customer purchase specification.

▸ Controlled Shape Quality: Typical sphericity and roundness are 0.9 × 0.9, supporting stable packing and fracture flow capacity.

▸ Technical Data Support: TDS, batch COA, particle size data, crush test information, conductivity and permeability data can be provided for project evaluation.

Typical Applications

▸ Hydraulic fracturing projects requiring API/ISO-oriented documentation

▸ Procurement requiring TDS, COA and inspection records

▸ Projects requiring ISP 16/20, 20/40 or 30/50 mesh selection

▸ Oil and gas wells requiring intermediate-strength ceramic proppant

Technical Selection Guide

Packaging & Delivery

▸ Standard packing is 1.5 MT polypropylene bags. Other packaging and loading arrangements can be discussed according to order requirements.

▸ SEPPE supports export packaging, container loading, batch identification and shipment documentation for bulk intermediate-density proppant orders.

FAQ

❓ How should this ISP proppant be selected?

▸ Selection should be based on closure stress, conductivity target, reservoir conditions, mesh size, pumping design and customer purchase specification. ISP 16/20, 20/40, 30/50 is the main model focus of this page.

❓ Is this different from lightweight proppant?

▸ Yes. ISP intermediate-strength proppant has higher density and stronger pressure performance than lightweight proppant and is selected when the project requires higher closure-stress resistance.

❓ Can SEPPE provide TDS and batch data?

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