· In the hydrofracturing process, a mixture of water, silica sand or other particles, and chemicals is injected at high pressure into the well, causing the rock to fracture and release the gas. The sand and other particles are referred to as proppants since they are used to "prop" open the rock fractures, thereby creating a pathway for the gas to flow from the shale and into the well.

Shale Gas
Major shale gas plays, in, are Barnett, Woodford, Fayetteville and HaynesvilleBossier. Barnett shale produces the largest volumes of gas compared to the other shale gas plays. The technological advancements in the geomechanics of hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling made the extraction of gas from shale attractive.

such as the Marcellus Shale. Hydraulic fracturing requires drillers to pump large amounts of water mixed with sand or other proppants into the shale formation under high pressure (approximately 10,000 psi) to fracture the shale formation adjacent to the wellbore and to create paths that connect the gas to the well. This allows the natural gas

Hydraulic fracturing is used to explore shale gas, tight gas, coalbed methane gas, etc. During the exploration process, proppant is used to keep the induced fractures open so that the fractures continue to function conduit for flow. They are crucial in maintaining high levels of fracture conductivity and connectivity. Proppants comes in a ...

· In shale gas fracturing treatment, the pumping rate is normally as high as 3962 gallons/min and even will be increased to 5283 gallons/min sometimes. At this high pumping rate, proppants are difficult to deposit to accumulate as piles in the horizontal wellbore, but it is still necessary to know about proppants settling and movement conditions.

· Proppants Information. Proppants are solid materials, such as sand, used to maintain cracks formed throughout well stimulation via hydraulic fracturing (known as fracking) in shale gas or oil drilling operations. The name derives from propping open the created cracks, thereby improving the flow rate of hydrocarbon resources into the wells.

· Leave the proppants behind in the cracks and fractures after the water has retreated. As the name implies, the proppants "prop" open the shale fractures, keeping them from closing off again. Because of the immense pressure of the surrounding shale rock, fracturing proppants must be extremely strong and have a high crush factor.

THE EFFECT OF PROPPANT SIZE AND CONCENTRATION ON .
Shale reservoirs contain enormous quantities of hydrocarbon resources that can be commercially produced only by applying hydraulic fracturing stimulation techniques. The main objective of hydraulic fracturing is to bypass nearwellbore formation damage and create a highconductivity fracture that communies with a large surface area of formation.
