GEOPROP MAX

GEOPROP MAX low-density proppant, with its super smooth finish and single mesh size, delivers unmatched performance in Enhanced Geothermal Systems. It’s combination of ultra-high conductivity with exceptional compressive strength maximizes heat transfer and ensures long-term well productivity under the extreme conditions of EGS.

It’s perfectly spherical shape and smooth surface minimizes flow resistance and creates highly conductive fracture networks that remain open and effective, even at elevated closure stresses. GEOPROP MAX is also thermally and chemically stable, resisting degradation in the harsh geothermal environment while delivering reliable performance for the life of the well.

By improving fracture conductivity and maintaining structural integrity where other proppants fail, GEOPROP MAX sets the standard for strength and efficiency in low-density proppants.
