CARBOBOND KRYPTOSPHERE LD
The higher-strength CARBOBOND KRYPTOSPHERE LD resin-coated low-density, ultra high-performance ceramic proppant is effective at greater well depths, temperatures and stresses than any comparable ceramic proppant. CARBOBOND KRYPTOSPHERE LD also requires 20% less proppant by weight than any resin-coated intermediate-density ceramic proppant and 30% less proppant than any resin-coated bauxite ceramic proppant. It is designed with high cyclic loading tolerance, and the bonded proppant pack reduces the effective stresses encountered at deeper depths.
Benefits
Why Choose
CARBOBOND KRYPTOSPHERE LD
-
Versatile—expands the usable application range (depth, temperature and stress) to replace intermediate-density and bauxite
-
No proppant flowback—eliminates subsequent equipment damage, expense of cleanouts and disposal
-
Maintains conductivity—resin coating prevents fines from being released
-
Maintains particle integrity—prevents chemical attack on substrate
-
No additional chemical costs—since no fluid chemistry change is required, the job can be pumped as designed
