- Unconventional Gas resources are Coal
Bed Methane (CBM), Shale Gas, Hydrates and Tight Gas.
-
Shale Gas means natural gas generated
in-situ and retained in Shale matrix storage, adsorbed onto organic
particles, or within fractures in shales of source rock origin and
obtained there form through boreholes.
-
Shale Oil means crude oil that is
generated in-situ and retained in shale matrix storage in shales of
sources rock origin and obtained there from through boreholes.
-
Exploration technologies, such as
multistage hydraulic fracturing or “fracking” combines with horizontal
drilling, Production of shale gas has become easier and economic
-
There are three main types of proppants:
frac sand, resin coated proppants , and ceramic proppants. Each proppant
type has its own advantages and disadvantages, and reservoir engineers
decide on the type to be used depending on geology, availability,
prices, and Government regulations
-
Frac Sand is indispensable to Shale Gas
Well completion
- Different Shale
gas basins require different sand sizes
-
Plants representing significant capital
investments receive the unprocessed sands and clean and otherwise refine
these into finished product ready for shipment
-
Mining, processing & Shipping cost are
major Investments
- Proppants are
exported from manufacturing centers such as China, Russia, Brazil, and
India to the demand center of North America.
-
The global market for proppants is
estimated about 25 million tons in 2012, and is expected to grow up to
50 million tons by 2017
